"We talk about the will to win. Let's eliminate the will to win and think about the will to prepare to win. Because the preparation is much more important. Everyone wants to win, but not everybody wants to prepare to win." - Bob Knight

Team struggling? Look beyond the 11. A team sport requires everyone to be of the same mindset with the same goals. Are there people in your environment who drag down the standards? DO NOT HESITATE. No matter how talented they seem, their impact on the group is devastating!!!

NEGATIVE BODY LANGUAGE LETS • Your opponents know they have the upper hand • Your teammates know your selfish • Recruiters know you can't handle adversity • Random spectators form opinions about you Nothing good comes from negative BL. KEEP YOUR CALM ~ via @DanCevette

Nutrition tip for student-athletes headed back to school 🏫! 🍳Eat breakfast daily + 2nd breakfast at school (apple + almonds). 🥪School lunch is NOT adequate to fuel your entire day! 🍌Pack fruit, applesauce packets, pretzels, 100% fruit bar, Greek yogurt cup, trail mix, protein bars. ⏰Grab some carbs + protein before and after workouts. 🚨Do not leave home without your snacks or WATER bottle!!

Very useful information before fall season begins!

🔵🔵🔵CHELSEA!!!

Dear Athletes, Soon the lights will be shining. Soon the band will be playing. Soon the crowd will be cheering. Soon the popcorn will be popping. Soon the adrenaline will be pumping. But remember, the lights only reveal your hard work in the dark. Sincerely, Be Ready

That’s me! Thanks for the article Andy! I look forward to working with you

🙏🏻 💙

Dear Athletes, The time will come when fall will ask what you did all summer … and it will never lie. It will be obvious who committed and who coasted. Who challenged themselves and who cheated themselves. Who raised their level and who risked their role. Sincerely, The Truth

Bottom line for the summer: No more excuses about working out. Ultimately, it’s your team. Take ownership of it! Great Team= Summer workouts are player led/productive Good team= Only coaches get players excited about summer workouts Bad team= Players hate/avoid summer workouts

Proud of my RAA! Thanks for the shout out!

Couldn’t have said it better myself! Thanks, Doug!
