I said this past week a few things that jump started my thought process. I have been preaching about what it takes...It takes physical strength to reach the starting line, but it takes MENTAL strength to get to the FINISHING line. I have hammered home the "Calloused Mind" thought process and how to overcome sticking points with "try harder" and "do this or that". I have had a system that I've applied over the years to make people stronger, faster, better conditioned, smarter, and sexier, but have NOTHING on how to become mentally strong. I talk about it. I affirm it. I have nifty sayings to promote it. But I have NO system to develop it with others. I am now locked on to use my experiences and put them into words to help step by step a SYSTEM to improve the mental aspect of "Training" and for that matter...perhaps LIFE? After all, Sport and the preparation of it is a microcosm of LIFE! Now to put pen to parchment! Anyone's input would be greatly appreciated as well.   Today's Training: AirDyne: 25 mins Suspended Knees to Elbow: 3x12 Windsheild Wipers: 3x12 Ab Wheel: 3x12 Tempo Arms Two sets of 6-8 reps moving the weight as slow as you can without it stopping or jerking. If you get less than 6 reps go down in weight on the second set. More than 8 go up five pounds. After each slow set is done, reach down deep and pump out 5-6 more reps quickly of the following exercises: Barbell Curl Rope Tricep Push downs DB Curls DB Supine Tricep Extension DB Hammer Curll Dips *Concentration Curl: 3x30 NOT done slow...just gush blood into those 'ceps Bike Commute: 30 minutes AirDyne AGAIN: 22 minutes
