It's Not The Taking Part... It's The Winning!!

Does anyone ever remember their mum saying that after a hard fought, hard lost game of football? Don't missunderstand the title here, i'm not saying that you should be walking around following a hefty defeat with your head in your hands lamenting your iminent demise from the competitive sporting scene. No, if you got your arse whooped by a stronger athlete or by a better, more skillful team on the day then it's time to suck it up, deal with it and move on. When I say move on at this point I mean you should be allready disecting your performance in terms of weak areas. Why was it that you lost? Did your conditioning (or lack there-of) let you down in the final 10 minutes of the game, or did the guy next to you simply have more strength or power or just simple grit and determination when it came down to the crunch?

You should be asking yourself these questions when the s**t hits the fan. At the end of the day do you want to be average or would you rather be the best in the business? In this game you have two choices; either you can go through the motions, training hard, eating well and putting in good performances on the track, field or whatever. Or you can get up every morning after a good 8 hours sleep, fully rested and recovered and fired up to go and tear it up in the gym, ready to train harder than you have ever trained before - train to be the BEST, the STRONGEST, the most powerful, finely tuned athlete you could possibly be in order to destroy the competition!
Without this drive and determination to succeed we will only ever be average. Do something about it! I know which way i'd rather go...

Send me your thoughts and questions on an e-mail and i'll get back to you.

Yours as always, in strength.

Smash it!
