This week the boys sat down for a chat about the mental side of intensity and one of our favorite books, How Bad Do You Want It? by Matt Fitzgerald. They talked about everything intensity related from how to get fitness results using intensity even if you’re just a casual CrossFitter, to how to train with intensity daily and not burn out for the more serious athlete, and even talked for a bit about how the brain controls the body’s limitations and how to get yourself to achieve more than you ever thought was possible with proper mental preparation and controlling your thoughts in competition or in a tough portion of a WOD where you just want to rest. If you haven’t already, the boys highly suggest you pick up a copy of How Bad Do You Want It? by Matt Fitzgerald and if you’re not convinced yet, listen to this podcast and you won’t be able to resist giving this book a read or listen.
