  3. Encourage pulling up on the pedals during the upstroke to engage the hamstrings and recruit more muscle groups.

  • Box Jumps
  1. ROM
  2. Cue athletes to stand tall and squeeze the butt and legs each rep. 

  • Air Squats

Mindset

“The only thing that is different about me, is that I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill.” - Will Smith

It’s not about the treadmill. It’s what the treadmill stands for.

Will Smith is not a competitive athlete. If he runs 2, 3, 10 miles… he’s still probably going to be highly successful in his career.

Probably.

But that’s not why he is who he is. He’s not defined by what he’s doing, but how he is doing it.

Full heart, full commitment, full effort. Wherever we go.
