Olympic athleticism, mindset, and your workouts

Published 9 months ago • 1 min read

Of all my courses, it's the one that's most-impacted how I provide instruction to my clients, as it contributes to my observation of movement and my ability to quickly assess and adjust positioning.

If we've worked together before, cues like these will sound familiar:

"Move your left foot one inch forward."
"Bring your right knee a half inch backward."
"Draw a straight line from the top of your head, through your shoulders, hips, and knees, all the way to your heels."

While you and I may not be headed for Olympic competition, there are fascinating similarities and differences in how we can prepare.

For example, here are 2 exercises that'll help you develop a strong back and legs.

"Am I going to step up and step into this with everything I've got?" - Dr. Jeff Spencer, describing how critical mindset is to success.
