Kali's Boot Camp
Kali's Boot Camp That feeling builds you up and allows you to grow physically and mentally.
I've always been in love with fitness and have always been fascinated on how we can transform our bodies by just applying two simple strategies: WORKOUT and EAT HEALTHY! It's no magic pill that's going to do the work for you but it's the magic that happens when you killed it in a workout and you feel like you can do this again and come back stronger. I feel like many people get discouraged by goi
Wanted to thank all the mom's at the Austin MOP meeting this morning and to Kourtney Case for inviting me to speak and teach a HIT style workout! What a fun time and great to see moms get into Mommy Fit mode!
Want to burn more fat during your workouts? I've found that doing a HIT style workout at least 2x a week has shed my body fat and here is one of my favorite ways to do it. Check this out!
SPRINT, SPRINT and more SPRINTS! Get on the treadmill and warm up for 5 minutes at a slow but steady run and then crank the treadmill up to a speed that will make you breathless. You will sprint for 30 seconds on and 30 seconds rest and do this 10x.....let me know how it works for you.
WOW! This speaks to me at many levels and if you are an athlete then I'm sure you can relate to this.
On training for mental toughness
Visualization is a piece of the training that is incredibly important. You don’t have to do anything physically—you can be meditating or walking, anything where you’re in your mind, playing it out in advance. You’re imagining the start, the route, the competition, those points that your body is saying, ”stop,” or that you’re suffering. You’re mentally training yourself to push through those barriers.
As I was training one of my dear clients, Shelley Moon Hayes, she asked me about how athletes get past that mental block during a workout and PUSH THROUGH and this is how we should think when it starts to hurt when we are hitting it hard in a workout.
Mental toughness is…
…when you, your body, the competition, nature, or the environment has the best of you so that you’re physically tapped out and need to figure out how to pull something out of yourself… not in a robotic way—in a way that’s mentally aware and engaged. It’s not just the ability to keep moving but to keep doing it in a way that’s engaged and competitive in the environment you’re in, whether that’s competing against the clock or other human beings. It’s easy when you feel good physically. It’s when that physicality leaves you.
