If you struggle with Oly Lifting, brace yourself because the following doesn’t read nicely…

You walk up to the barbell. This lift is always your biggest weakness.

All you want is to succeed for once. But success is unpredictable for you. Will it be a good session or a bad one?

You’ve already visualised missing the lift. The pressure is unbearable. You feel weak. Confidence through the floor.

You tell yourself to drop the pressure, or just try and enjoy it, or maybe “just stop being so shit.”

You’ve missed the lift before you’ve even touched the barbell.

Which just proves to yourself the story that you’re not good enough & you won’t make your potential count.

Ouch.

Sorry to speak so bluntly, but if you’re not going to look honestly at the problem, I will.

Because if your mindset sucks, your lifting will suffer.

And using discipline, aggressive self talk, and psyching yourself up will not be enough to change a story that lives deep in the recesses of your mind.

Today, I’m going to teach you a four-part mindset checklist to improve your relationship with olympic lifting.
