Short Essay about the Total Minutes Theory of Athletic Performance image

  A Short Essay About the Total-Minutes Theory of Energy and Performance by Sifu Slim, author of "The Aging Athlete" (TheAgingAthlete.com) An idea that has some currency in sports psychology holds that performance athletes have only so many total minutes of emotional and physical energy to draw upon.
