Competition

Competition is a very motivating dynamic to instill in a training session. It will drive athletes harder and further for those couple of extra seconds or to finish those last rounds. This is why I post all the completion times and results of all the training sessions for the athletes to see. It gives everyone a bench mark for the day to try and achieve or exceed. The flip side to this is that in reality you should only be in competition with yourself. You should strive to beat your previous times and strength numbers. If you focus on this aspect and continually best yourself then your body composition and performance goals will soon be a reality. Now look at that board and kick some ass!
