Improve Your Mental Toughness đź’Ş
Podcast Episode #152 🎙
.
TOP 3 Ways to Improve 👇👇👇
FIGHTING NEGATIVE THOUGHTS
Have you ever thought:👉
❌"Should I really go “x” amount of miles today?”
❌ "It's just too hilly, too hot, too cold, etc."
❌ "What's the point of going out and doing this run?"
Thoughts can get out of control if you let them
Instead of allowing your thoughts to adjust your actions, let them just "be". See your thoughts as neutral rather than negative. You don’t even have to make your thoughts positive
Your thoughts are simply just thoughts that will come and go
.
LIMITING BELIEFS
The story that you tell yourself is so important
❌"I’m better at speed and not long distances."
❌"I can't run negative splits. My body doesn't work like that."
That will be true if you think it
Your body follows your mind. Your only fighting chance is if you believe you have one! 👊
.
GETTING UNCOMFORTABLE
Whatever is challenging for you in training: DO THAT!
âś…Doing different types of training
✅Running in the rain if you don’t like running in the rain. Yes you can move your run but ask yourself why? Are you trying to make it easier for yourself? Rethink that decision!
âś…You need the challenge to get better
Mental toughness in running translates into mental toughness in life đź’Ş
