Listen Later

Have you ever been tempted to redo a workout, convinced you could smash your previous score? Coaches David Syvertsen @davesy85 and Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic break down some factors in helping you make that decision. We're not just talking about the physical impacts—though those are serious too—but also the mental and emotional toll that comes with trying to hit that restart button. Whether you're dealing with a snapped jump rope or the sting of being outperformed, we've got the lowdown on when a do-over is actually worth it, and when it's best to chalk it up to experience.

We break down the aftermath of workouts, the imperative of staying mentally engaged, and why sometimes your biggest competitor is the one staring back at you in the mirror. 

But what about when the dust settles, and the leaderboard is staring you in the face? We wrap up the conversation examining how our response to workouts can mirror our approach to life's obstacles. 

From setting personal benchmarks to managing the emotional whirlwind of competition, we share stories from the trenches and the profound lessons learned. Join us as we reveal how embracing your performance and focusing on long-term growth can be the ultimate win, both in the gym and beyond. So, if you're looking for courage to face those high-stakes moments head-on, this is the episode that might just change your game.
