Barbell Shrugged

We all go through times where we question what we are supposed to be doing with our lives. Sometimes the answer has been around for as long as we can remember. We just try to please others and ourselves at the same time. Think way back about what you first wanted to do... Think about how that one idea shaped the rest of your life... And now think about what you do right now... What’s changed? Are you happy?    Regardless of all that, I’m going to tell you some very personal stories that helped me along my path. Some of the details will honestly blow you away, maybe even make you cry, but it sure as hell is going to motivate you.    Let’s go!  ------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-ep102 ------------------------------------------------------------------ ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

Mental toughness… it’s a hot topic right now. In the CrossFit space we see mental toughness as crawling through a lengthy workout or holding on to the bar for a few more reps. In sports we see athletes getting on the field days after injury and pushing through the pain. In our daily lives, we may boast about working 80 hours a week or never taking vacation days.   These scenarios are many times, what our society defines a being tough; sucking it up and putting your head down to do work or just “grinding another day”.   Of course there is time to do work but is this type of “work” truly the mark of the toughest individuals?   On this week’s episode we’re challenging traditional perceptions of mental toughness. Dr. Sean puts you in the guest seat as he takes you through a visualization exercise on mental toughness, plus he shares his own ego struggles about the time he worked out with Rich Froning for a week that you don’t want to miss!   Show Notes:   3:39 -  A visualization exercise 9:12 -  What would you do if you got this text? 13:46 - The mindset of difficult decision making 17:30 - A story of mental toughness 22:20 - Dr. Sean works out with Rich Froning 27:11 - When is it time to tap out?

In this episode, I go over a bunch of statistics about millennials and social media conversion rates. I talk about my opinion of owning a gym versus owning an online business. I also give my personal recommendations on what I would do if I could start all over again but in 2019. 

We've got Mike Salemi coming on today. He is in the Strong Coach Mastermind and he drops some really great knowledge about his journey, which is going to be very helpful for you as a coach and building your own coaching business.   We get into Enlifted as well, so the way this works is when people join The Strong Coach Mastermind, they also go into the Enlifted certification and that's something we offer by itself as well and it's really digging into the mental side of things and we get into mental resilience and how to help clients and set really great goals and really become a coach that stands apart by how we show up for our clients. Enjoy!
