Hello listeners!

I hope that everyone is taking full control of what they can during this lockdown!

On today's episode I speak to the very accomplished and well-rounded athlete Mona Pretorious. 

Mona is an Olympic Weightlifter who came 3rd at the Commonwealth Games, obtained the title of African Champion after a serious ligament injury, a CrossFit Games athlete and a 6x Karate World Champion. 

We talk a lot about her mindset around the postponement of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, how her training has changed because of that, how to keep a positive mindset throughout lockdown and how this situation has really proved itself to be the ultimate test of athletes mental toughness. 

The main point of conversation that truly stuck with me after this conversation was the importance of being flexible in a time like this; being flexible with your routine (while still keeping a routine) and being flexible with your goals. 

Join us through this journey of positivity, injury, mentality, setbacks, toughness and belief!
