Athletes often face various dilemmas and challenges when it comes to training. Here are some of the main dilemmas commonly faced by athletes:

• Overtraining vs Undertraining:
• Finding the right balance between pushing yourself to improve and avoiding overtraining, which can lead to burnout and injury.
• Intensity vs Recovery:
• Balance intense workouts with adequate rest to avoid fatigue, overuse injuries, and mental exhaustion.
• Specialization vs Cross Training:
• Deciding whether to specialize in a specific sport or activity or engage in cross-training to improve overall fitness and prevent overuse injuries.
• Consistency vs Variety:
• Finding a balance between maintaining a consistent workout routine to progress and introducing enough variety to make workouts interesting and avoid boredom.
• Short Term Goals vs Long Term Goals:
• Managing the tension between focusing on immediate performance goals and considering the long-term development and sustainability of an athlete's career.
• Balance between Sports, Academies/Career:
• Juggling the demands of athletic training, academic commitments or a professional career.
• Injury Management vs. Pushing Through Pain:
