May 26 – June 1, 2014

You are what you eat!

Many athletes assume that to get faster and stronger they need to train harder and longer. However, they look at the scale and assume just because they are training they can eat whatever they want and get fast. Sorry to break it to you… that is not going to happen. You are not DOGS… so why reward yourself with food!

You eat to train… you don’t train to eat… not just for your own training, but also in general, for LIFE. 

Therefor, it is important to be conscious on what you put in your body. What is your excuse to for not eating correctly is it, work, stress, family, relationships, exes, depression, kids, feeling lonely… stop it!!!! Stop making excuses.

Nutrition and a clean, healthy REAL FOOD (not shakes or meal replacements) diet is an integral part of overall health and for seeing results from your fitness regimen. Furthermore, it’s imperative to adapt a “diet” that is sustainable long-term and becomes natural to you and subsequently your lifestyle.

If you are willing to make the sacrifices and changes of bad habits… make it happen.

“Destiny is not a matter of chance, but of choice. Not something to wish for, but to attain.”

– William Jennings Bryan

 Limiters!!!

Most athletes train the way they want to train. By doing so, they se no improvement year by for. However,, athlete who are able to consistently improve season after season ten to train the way they need to train and challenge themselves. AKA… they listen to their Coach. 

It can be difficult of an athlete to focus on the areas that are holding him or her back because most uf us developed our strengths in our favorite training areas. However, when we have a specific training session at practice… you might not show up because it is too hard for you. Too bad, suck it up.  This could be your race limiter. Countless times I have seen athletes not improve because they are stuck in their ways… lets stop it and change it. I will see you at practice.

May 5 – 11, 2014 – Happy Mother’s Day!

 On Sunday it is going to be Mother’s Day. 

Mother’s Day is the day we celebrate our mothers, all they do for us and all they mean to us. It is an opportunity to give thanks to mom for being mom. An annual holiday, Mother’s Day is celebrated across the world, letting children everywhere say thank you for all the laundry, meals, after school activities, dental work and love a mother provides.

Even tho sometimes we feel that our Mother’s don’t know what they are talking about…. sorry to be the bearer of bad news… but THEY DO and THEY ARE ALWAYS RIGHT! They were our age once and if we thought that we could get away with things… they know it.

Take this day and celebrate with your mom. Appreciate her for everything she does for you. Love you MOM!
