Rob and Dave discuss one of the most important aspects of becoming an elite competitor and a highly successful individual - your training mindset.
Everyone has heard that the way you train is the way you will compete. Likewise, the way you train your mind is the way your mind will be when you compete.

Not to worry, this podcast outlines a few popular mental training techniques and the way elite athletes use them to enhance their performance.
