"Prescribing thirty minute bouts of monostructural cardio (bike, run, swim, row, elliptical walker, etc.) in the hopes of maximizing fitness for a fight of five rounds of five minutes each is the epitome of incompetence."




Incompetence
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Incompetence is the inability to perform; lack of competence; ineptitude. "
