“Rooted in substance.” This is a snippet I took from Coach Dan Lanning’s pregame speech before Oregon faced off against Colorado earlier this football season. In today’s society we easy get lost in the likes, follower counts, and pageantry causing us to miss the substance of what we are doing and why. Often we misstep or lose ourselves in the commotion of social media. Men lie women lie but number...

“Success leaves clues.” There is no such statement that is more real than that. Success (as does failure) leaves clues, the real question is can we see those clues? Do we know what clues are being left? If not we are bound to repeat mistakes & not reach our full potential. This episode we discuss the mindset of success and reading the winning formula. We use examples to identify successful individ...

This episode we discuss a winning mindset and consistency. We mow over the cause and effect. So much of life as we see it today is hinged on perfection, ultra discipline, and money. Those things are great but we can only achieve those things by stacking many small detail’s together. To stack skills and details we must be consistent and tenacious. I hope this podcast helps you in your journey to su...

Wow! It has been quite the journey from episode 1 to 100. Many lessons learned in between, never thought we would make this much content from a idea. Personally I wanted to do something special for episode 100 and it happened. Our E-Book “4 Week Speed and Agility Crash Course for Middle School and High School Athletes” is now live and available on Amazon as well as the legendsofathletics.com websi...

This episode we dissect the quote “pressure is a privilege.” I initially read this quote from Tim Grover in one of his books, it shifted my thought process to a higher “vibration.” I think we take for granted the pressure we are presented by being in certain positions whether that be in our life, career, or sports. This episode is to challenge you to rethink the term pressure and welcome the oppor...

Camps versus training which one should I do? In athletics this is often a confusing question, with marketing, talking heads, and benefits springing up everywhere it can become very confusing. This episode I highlight 3 questions to ask in order to best answer which direction you should go? Financially what can you afford? How can you get more exposure? What is your ultimate goal/outcome?

This episode we focus in on athletic improvement from offseason to offseason. In todays athletic climate countless athletes don’t necessarily have a “offseason” so the window to improve is smaller than it has ever been. Athletes use the offseason to heal from injury, address weaknesses etc. but if you consistently approach it incorrectly you are doing yourself more harm than good. In this episode...

Be Legendary.

This is episode 94! Let’s talk about support. Many people discuss and share post about lack of support and why they are not where they want to be due to lack of support. The reason we search for that support is purely laced to validation. Being a entrepreneur is scary, doing anything bigger than ourself is scary. I have been there and I want this episode to help someone who is in that position tha...

This episode we briefly discuss the effect of self talk. Self talk on the journey of self improvement is big, it can cause us to elevate or crumble under pressure. You have to find what fuels you internally to manifest it externally. The road can be lonely but the reward is tremendous to becoming the best you possible. Be Legendary.

This episode we talk about the price that must be paid before success can be seen. A grind phase, the grind phase is necessary to focus us and reveal to ourselves if we really want to pay the cost of success. It’s a necessary part of life that each and every person hungry for success must go through. I hope to inspire you to reach and climb higher. Remember to take the road less traveled, get 1% b...
