Rest and Prepare

REST!

This one is hard for us, but if anything active rest. Light row, roll out and stretch. Your body needs time to recover so it can be STRONGER! Get your mind right for The Cold War. Remember during a competition or a daily WOD to keep your mind slow. Easier for some than others (I've been told I was slow for a good portion of my life). Think slowly, breathe slowly and your wod will go faster. Fast thoughts make fast heart rates. Fast heart rates make you rest. Rest during a wod makes you slower. There are times to come out of the gates like a bat out of hell at the 3,2,1... go, However competitions can be won or lost by how well you control your anxiety. Bask in the opportunity to test yourself, it will be over before you know it. Then you'll be stuck waiting for the next TEST.
