Hami's and Glutes







Skiing at high levels takes a tremendous amount of effort. Makin' moves like Ligety, Vonn, Miller, Morrison, or Sage require amazing strength and power (P=Work/Time, or a lot of work in a short time).

Do you have it? What are you doing about it if you don't? Is it working?

Jay-birds have big mouths

 Do you have a dream? How bad do you want it to become reality? There are so many ways to go about achieving your goals, and the only way to figure out what is going to work for you is to try it. If it doesn't work, change it. If it works, make it better. There's a lot of work involved, but when you feel the changes, remember what you did and recreate that every time. I'm talking about hard work, dedication, and commitment. If you need to go all Bill Nye the Science Guy on it, do it! No matter what, it's gotta be done 100 percent. No one's going to do it for you.

Jay-Z probably says it the best when he's describing Michael Jordan's extraordinary 'talent,'

“The gift that Jordan had wasn’t just that he was willing to do the work, but he loved doing it, because he could feel himself getting stronger, ready for anything.”

Jordan says the same thing in the commercial below, which is waaay better than that other self centered, spoiled brat's commercial. Just sayin'.



So, where will your highlight reel start? Do you love what you do enough to work every single day at it? Skiing, soccer, football, skating, arts, academics, or whatever it may be can only be done for a fraction of your day, week, month, year, life. What are you going to do in-between?
