#176: Finishing What You Started

3D Muscle Journey

Alberto, Brad, and Steve discuss the strategies they use and the strategies they have their athletes/clients use to stay on track with their goals when they're struggling with motivation.

Do the coaches always feel like lifting? What strategies do the coaches use to get themselves to do something when they don't feel like it? How can you use visualization to increase your level of excitement for doing something? What do the coaches have their athletes do and focus on to stay motivated when their next show or meet is far away?

Along with answering these questions, Alberto, Brad and, Steve also cover: setting up reward systems, assessing your self-talk, getting your day off to a good start, and more.
