Intent. Some people have it. Some people don’t. There’s a reason this HS sophomore can lift more, sprint faster and jump higher than most of her competition. Are you checking boxes? Or are you training with INTENT.

In 1992, Kurt Warner was a backup quarterback at the University of Northern Iowa. He was more talented than the starter, but he never got on the field. Warner asked his friend to ask the coaches why he wasn’t playing. The response changed the way Warner approached the game and his life. The coaches said, "The reason you're not starting is that you're not very good in practice." The response shocked Warner. He knew he could throw better than the other QBs. He outshined them when the lights came on whether it was spring ball or the game. But then he started to think about it. He realized that almost 99% of the time the coaches and teammates saw him was in practice. This moment shifted his mindset and perspective. Warner said, "That was one of the greatest lessons that I ever learned about life and about football. You have to bring it every day. You got to show me what to expect from you every single day." He realized that every moment is a moment to lead by example. How you do one thing is how you do everything. In life, he realized that people watch what you do all of the time, not just when the lights are on or not just for one moment. That moment changed everything for him. He started to take practice seriously and results started to appear. In 1993, Kurt Warner was the starting quarterback for the University of Northern Iowa. He led the team to an 8-4 season with over 2,500 yards and 17 TDs. He was invited to training camp with the Green Bay Packers and that was just the beginning for him. Takeaway 1: Be the Example and Lead by Example In every aspect of life, not just sports, people often observe and judge us based on our consistent behavior and actions. To inspire and motivate others, it's essential to consistently demonstrate the qualities and behaviors we wish to see in ourselves and those around us. Takeaway 2: Value Feedback and Embrace Growth Growth is a habit and a choice. Feedback might not always be easy to hear or accept, but it's your choice whether to grow from it or deny it. You have to honest with yourself on where there are opportunities to grow. Whether in sports, career, or personal development, being open to constructive criticism and actively seeking opportunities for growth can lead to greater success and achievement. "If you're willing to put yourself and your dreams on the line, at the very least you'll discover an inner strength you may not have known existed." - Kurt Warner - - - Follow @coachajkings for more content like this!

No bench, no problem, use the bike for a back support. #filltheships

“It’s not culture’s job to make people feel good. A lot of times the things that feel good don't help us win. A weak culture prioritizes that you’ve got to feel good all the time. It says, ‘If it doesn’t feel good, don’t do it.’ It means the culture is unwilling to sit in the discomfort that growth requires. There’s too much culture being taught as all trust falls and hugs. The purpose of culture is to drive the behavior that wins. That’s it. That’s culture’s job. Now, the behavior that wins is what we have to identify. Whatever behaviors we identify to help us work together and win, the question is ‘Does our culture demand that? Does our culture drive that?’”

51 football players made a choice this morning!! Trust the process and reap the rewards! #BucTough #FillTheShips

Cross country had a solid lift this morning after having a XC meet last night! 17 athletes improving their best! Q&A had an army of 65 athletes! #ItTakesAnArmy #BucTough

Stronger athletes are faster and more powerful than their weak counterparts. The weight-room should play a part of every speed program as it gives athletes access to more force to use during rapid display. Build em STRONG💪🏻
