Look For

  • Bike: Look for athletes to maintain a pace that will allow them to get off and quickly complete a set of wallballs.
  • Wallballs: Focus on athletes training their breathing as they complete wallballs, if athletes can hone in this skill it can improve their wallball sets.

MINDSET

Byron Pulsifer 

"Many people think of prosperity that concerns money only to forget that true prosperity is of the mind."

True wealth lies in a rich and healthy mindset, not just in material possessions.
