Can simply working on your mindset improve your performance? YES

Training science has come a long way but understanding how to get the most out of yourself for both that soul crushing interval session or your target event is an art! 

Patrick recently posted a great Fast Dad Friday on our YouTube channel, check that out here! https://youtu.be/SmdTSmIFeuE

We start to unpack mental toughness for cycling: digging deep in intervals and showing up to your event with the winning attitude to get the most out of yourself. 

Part of cycling is metric related (how many watts, your vo2max, etc), part is understanding the dance, aka the actual race, and another aspect is understanding your thought process, preparation, and using the mind to get yourself across the line in FIRST PLACE.

Mental Toughness-

What is it?

How do you find yours?

Should it be different for training vs. competition?

Part 2 coming soon! Sorry for the abrupt finish, but daBaby woke up and hey, 45 minutes is long enough!
