A massive performance in the Olympics yesterday, with the two ladies rowers doing a fantastic job, with one of those ladies only starting rowing four years ago!
Bradley wiggins was the rightful favourite for the time trial, but being favourite and executing are two different things. Wiggins now recognises the pressure that comes with being such a favourite and has become one of the world’s greatest athletes, and Britain’s greatest Olympian in the process!
Having pressure to perform is a good thing.
Everyone who trains with me is aware of the measuring process I put every individual through every four weeks.
This means that the individual is having constant positive pressure once a month to improve, and this is invaluable of course!!!!
My focus is always getting someone’s heart stronger, getting someone into healthy blood pressure ranges, getting an individual into a healthy body fat range, getting an individual’s waist size into a healthy range to keep potentially life-threatening diseases away if possible.
The great news is that all of these strategies WILL make you feel a lot better, and look and LOT better if you give them time.
Just like the Olympic athletes use top to bottom strategies to make them perform at their best using latest science, my goal is always not to leave any stone unturned to get the best out of an individual, no matter what the starting point, or however hopeless the situation may be to begin with!!
The likes of brad wiggins have given everything to be at their best.
Whilst I can never expect such a Herculean effort out of everyone I train, I do ask each and every individual to work hard and reach their very own version of their personal best.
If you take onboard this attitude, results will always be very impressive for you!!!
