“All progress depends on the irrational person.”
The thought that a human could run a sub 4:00 mile was absurd. The attempts to put human beings in a giant metal tube and throw them into outer space was thought to be even more ridiculous.
When we think back to the largest accomplishments in life, it was done by those who defied the status quo. It was done by those who believed things could be done differently.
We know that change is uncomfortable. It has to be. But we welcome it, fully allowing ourselves to believe that something else is possible. In the words of Epictetus, “If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish, and stupid.”

Break for members to use the rest room as well as ask any final questions. This is also an opportunity for the coach to go around the room and chat with athletes regarding volume, loading, and modifications.

It is the coach's responsibility to bring the energy in the room for the workout. This may be the most important job of the coach, to make the class fun. There should be a big loud countdown to start the class, and every member should hear their name loud by the coach. This lets the member know the coach is watching them, and also creates a good feeling by hearing their own name. The coach should work the room and there should be no doubt, if someone walks in the room in the middle of the workout, who the coach is.
Use this time to give the class a talk on how we should eat, move, think, connect, or sleep.
Or this could be a time for the coach to make 1-on-1 connections on a deeper level.
This may be some of the most important minutes of the entire class. Build your community here.
