The Inner Voice of an Elite Athlete
14.05.2012
I'd say that more than 50% of an athletes performance is based upon the voices in their head. No, I don't mean they are crazy, I mean as an athlete you are what you tell yourself. The 6 inches between your left ear and right ear will drastically affect your performance success and results. That's why we coach our athletes to be aware of what they tell themselves. Every Elite Athlete I've ever worked with and coached has had an inner voice of pride. It is the voice only athletes can hear, pushing them to the brink of exhaustion, demanding excellence and condemning failure. Failure understand, i

07.05.2012
Whilst travelling through the USA I met a strength coach by the name of Zach....he showed around his underground facility and we had a training session there. At the end of the session we spoke about business, athletes and everything in between. His training facility is intense and nothing fires him up more than when athletes slacken off. This is what he told me, ”I try not to take it personal when I see athletes slack, lose the eye of the tiger and walk around as if they have no heart beat – unfortunately, that shit pisses me off”. How does one go from being hungry for victory go to bei

Gold Medal Mindset
30.04.2012
On the weekend I ran into an old friend of mine that also happens to be a current Olympic Champion. It was interesting hearing them talk about their preparation for London and when I asked them if they was nervous or felt more pressure about defending their gold medal...I was blown away by what they said, " I don't feel any pressure at all, if anything my competitors should be more scared and nervous....In my mind-No one has worked as hard as I have, no one has had the expert coaching, elite nutrition and recovery protocols that I have! It is my belief that I am superior in every facet both ph

Hunter or Scavenger????
23.04.2012
I was purchasing a notepad from the newsagency the other day and I couldn’t help but notice the woman in front of me...purchasing a gold lotto ticket and some instant scratchies....Normally I couldn’t care less...but the women was incessant about her luck and kept saying, "I hope I get lucky and win a million dollars....you know I’ve spent so much money on these lottery tickets...I deserve to win"...(whilst she probably said it tongue in cheek).. I instantly thought how many people and athletes think this way and how applicable this mindset is to society in general and contributes to laz
