‎Chasing Excellence: #096: 10 Principles of Mindset on Apple Podcasts

I’ve always said that mindset is key. Using terms like “can’t” truly means “won’t”. Remove these terms from your vocabulary so you can take the first step at changing your mindset into realizing you have a choice in doing and accomplishing anything.

Werblowing Worldwide

Athlete Brett Werblow dialing in his running technique as the Ironman 70.3 Traverse City Triathlon approaches. Anxious to see his results. I'm confident his strength, technique, and endurance training will serve him well.

Traveling for Ironman Race: I’m Just over two weeks away from the Ironman 70.3 Traverse City Triathlon and I’m dialing in my run pacing at about a 5:05 min/km. After just completing an 8 week CF Endurance program with Coach @the_perfect_pull , I feel more confident in my running technique, especially for a 5+ hour endurance race.

Im looking forward to racing in some cooler temps. I took this video at the end of a hill workout in 97° temps and the HR was wild and lactic acid was certainly building up.

The Importance of Platform Coaching Demeanor

Great article by Coach Bob Takano. The concepts he discusses applies to all coaches, not just weightlifting coaches. The job of the coach is to keep the athlete focused on the task. Save the celebrations for after the medal ceremony or workout.

Aerobic Capacity Course - Developing Different Gears

I'm coaching an Endurance Program at CF South Arlington this summer for those that are interested. Details in the link below.

Building aerobic capacity is a goal of the CFSA Running Program. It is designed to help develop different “gears” for you to tackle Endurance AND CrossFit workouts. Whether it’s repeat 400s, 1 mile time trial or a 20 minute metcon, the Running Program will give you the tools to identify your maximum sustainable pace. Sign up for the 8-week program to learn more:

Currently developing a "boot camp" program at CrossFit South Arlington to help prepare soldiers for the Army Combat Fitness Test. Here's a preview of what's expected in the new test.

For the first time in nearly 40 years, the United States Army is changing how it measures the physical fitness of its soldiers.

This is what is takes to pass the new Army Combat Fitness Test.

Lifting all the weights today and using this awesome sling bag from my friends @starsandbarswlc and @svg831 to carry all my lifting paraphernalia while I’m on travel.

The next cycle of Iron Strong is here!

If you're in the Arlington area and want to move some iron.

mailchi.mp Metal. Chalk. Muscle. Sweat. A focused mind determined to move iron. A relentless desire to not back down from any physical challenge.

Even on a treadmill you can use the Pose Method to run efficiently. You should always use the incline to set your “fall” angle. This is also a great way for pace and cadence practice.

Body weight is on the ball of the foot. Knees stay bent on landing and at the pull...never a straight leg. Pulling foot up into pose. Relaxed ankle throughout.

You don’t need much equipment to get a good workout. Sure it’s great to have a gym with all the bells and whistles, but it really just boils down to getting work done regardless of the setting. No excuses, just an attitude of wanting to stay fit. It’s simple, but effective.

Thanks @streetparking for the workout inspiration of kettlebell swings and step ups. And thanks Rogue for the awesome kettlebell.

Doing treadmill intervals at 5,312ft above sea level. This is one way to develop aerobic capacity. Although a treadmill isn’t the ideal method to work on my #posemethodrunning it does allow me to work pace and learning the feeling of that pace...even though I’m sucking wind at this elevation.

[CHICAGO MARATHON 2018] —————————————————-My 5th timing running the grueling distance of 26.2 and it proved to be as hard as the first. Battled through cold temps, rain, wind, and a hell of a leg cramp at mile 20. •That couldn’t stop me from a Personal Best |03:53:10|

The Deets:
🏃 Sliced 06:49 off my previous PB (Detroit in 2014) and over 17:00 from the Berlin Marathon in 2017 ✅ ——————————————————
•This race I set a goal of running a race injury free. Thankful for finding a #PoseMethod running coach (@the_perfect_pull) who quickly corrected my foot strike and then led a CrossFit Endurance based training of low-mileage, high intensity 14-week program. Injury free and setting a Personal Best gives me a lot to look forward to. Running is a skill that needs to continue to be practiced. ——————————————————
