How to Look Like a Pro Athlete without Actually Being One
A lot of people wonder how come I love my workouts so much and why so many people come to work out with me. Where is the difference? You’d say…. a workout like a workout!
Truth is that the best part about the way I and my clients work out is that we do not set limitations! We do not accept the fact that just because we don’t compete, we shouldn’t do any different physical activity than walking, running in the park and climbing stairs. We know that every one of us can do so much more! We know that what differs the regular man from the pro athlete is just these- the profession! While pro athletes get money for what they are capable of doing with their bodies, we get an infinite satisfaction of our abilities and achievements!
Every one of my clients, no matter his age, physical activity, sports background, injuries… if he works hard enough, one day he will be able of doing handstand walking, sprinting, jumping, flipping tires, doing pull ups, push ups, endure hard workouts, climb on a rope, deadlift and so on….
People often ask me what competition I am preparing for and they always look shocked when I say that I am just working out for my own pleasure and that I am a strength and conditioning coach. People consider that a person who can sprint, jump, do pull ups, drag tires, walk on hands, has nice, athletic body and follows a nutrition plan, should be by all means a pro athlete!
And this is far from the truth! I know that you too could become like me and the people I have the honor to coach every day! You too could have nice, athletic body and you could be capable of doing stuff that the regular man never thinks of doing in his daily life! That is why with today’s post I am gonna try and give you some directions on how to actually do it! (more…)
