Embracing Risks and Building Confidence
The chapter explores the mindset of embracing risks in endurance sports, emphasizing the importance of mental preparation and betting on oneself. It highlights the need for confidence and belief in one's abilities to push past comfort zones and achieve greatness.
In this week’s episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast my guest is the brilliant Chris Hinshaw. Chris is a world-renowned endurance coach and founder of aerobiccapacity.com, with years of experience in CrossFit, Ironman competitions, and coaching elite athletes. He has helped coach some of the biggest names in CrossFit including Mat Fraser, Rich Froning, and Tia Clair Toomey. Beyond CrossFit, Chris has also coached Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champions, Olympians, FBI and military personnel, firefighters and other professionals. In addition to his coaching, Chris was an elite athlete in his own right (which included a second-place finish at the Ironman World Championships). It’s fair to say this man knows his stuff and it was an honour to be able to chat with him. We cover so much – running training for HYROX, the mental side of sport, his thoughts around HYROX in general, why many people get their warmup wrong, what separates some of the top athletes of all time – like Mat Fraser – with others, and lots more. It was a brilliant chat and I think there’s a huge amount you can take away from this.
