Competing is not always what it appears to be.

The athletes with heart, passion, and an understanding of their needs for longevity will eventually outperform the athletes who don’t have love or respect for the entire undertaking required to be a competitor.

Competing is not always what it appears to be.
There’s a lot of variables to consider before stepping on stage, during your journey to it, immediately after, and months post-show.

This includes the willingness to shine light on the dark demons keeping you from your fullest potential.

It can be easy to push to your limits for 12 weeks but what if the next 40 are spent binging, doubting, judging, loathing…? Then was the 12 weeks really successful?

I personally believe that it is not about which athlete does the most in the shortest period of time but it is about which athlete does the most, repeatedly, over long periods of time with adaptation to their body, goals, feedback, and circumstances.

I am inspired more by those who do things in the way that’s best for them rather than what they think they “should” do to be seen as the “best” to others.

This is not to say you need to sacrifice giving your all. This is to say you may need to sacrifice your idea of giving your all to support yourself in building confidence and insight to keep giving more.

It is of utmost importance to prioritize your mental health along the way so you don’t hurt your relationship with with food, with the sport, or with yourself above all else because honestly, no one is immune to the impact competing can have on the way we see ourselves.

Invest in your inner game as you invest in your physical results and just watch what happens when it comes time to shine.
