What’s your mantra? When the going gets tough, many of us click into dig deep mode and repeat a mantra. This does a few things, and has great results.
Why use a Mantra? Simple. When you are pushing hard it keeps your brain focused on the goal. It creates a rhythm as well allowing you to breathe and relax and put out hard.
Here’s your challenge for the weekend. Find a workout that has some serious suck factor in it. When you start to hit that point where it gets hard. Legs start to burn. Find a Mantra and start to repeat it in your head.

Feel – ing – good. look – ing good. ought – to be in Holly wood”
This has a nice pattern especially when running.
