I highlight four key factors: not improving your sport IQ, not doing any extra reps, staying quiet and not communicating, and not emphasizing strength development. Conversely, if you want to secure a starting spot or take someone else's, you should focus on improving your sport IQ, doing extra reps, communicating effectively, and prioritizing strength development.
