Championship teams love the weight room. They are the hunter. Not the meal.

Why do some programs struggle year after year? There are many reasons. Here are 5 Common Reasons Some Programs Struggle Year After Year... 1: Bad Habits Teams and individuals never 'Rise to the Occasion.' They always sink to their habits. Bad habits lose games. Good habits

WINNERS KNOW WHY THEY WIN 💯 “Cool does not win. We have to be willing to do the uncomfortable things that go into winning.” (Mick Cronin)

A great quote for young players. If you just attend practice , you’ll get what everyone else gets. You want more… do more.

The difference between good & great Effort and energy level are two things that great players never have to be coached on.

MIKE LEACH ON EMBRACING HARD "Nothing is really fun unless it's hard ... You're pushing yourself. All of a sudden you're making great plays. You're doing things that you've never done before... Never hope that it's easy." ~ via Washington State Football and @DrewMaddox

My desire to be the best started in the weight room. It was the catalyst for reaching my goals as a Football player. Nick Bosa

The weight-room is special because it only rewards those that work. It values tenacity over talent. It doesn’t care about ⭐️’s or playing time. It’s a sanctuary where athletes aren’t subject to scrutiny from the outside world. The weight-room is a equal opportunity equalizer.

"Lazy people do a little work and think they should be winning! Winners work as hard as possible and still wonder if they are being lazy!"

Fake Toughness *Cheap shots *Talking trash *Taunting *Handshake line scuffles Real Toughness *Practicing hard every day *Playing for your teammates instead of yourself (overcoming selfishness) *Doing the dirty work *Playing through aches and pains *Cheering on your teammates

The weight room does more than just build your body. It builds character & mental toughness. It strengthens weaknesses & reveals assertiveness. It shows who has drive & who fakes it. Through grit, it reveals who’ll quit & who won’t. Ultimately, doing hard things create leaders!

Congratulations to Reegan Kellett for breaking the pull-up record today with 33. Geno Harmon is now 2nd in pull-ups with 26 and broke the plyo push-up record with 45!!💪🏽💪🏽

The #1 skill missing from today’s athlete is mental toughness. Refusing to hold oneself accountable to individual and team goals. Blaming others for circumstances. Not fighting through adversity. Pouting and poor body language. Physical skill can only take you so far. Get tough!

Congrats to Andy Medina on squatting 500 lbs. today!!! LP Cavalier Football

Coach K once said, "You can either lower your goals to match your effort, or you can raise your effort to match your goals." No Deposit - No Return. Everything is earned.

"Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they're making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that's the difference." -- Lou Holtz

Tom Izzo said, "You play real good, you start. You don't play as good, you work your way back in." "That's the American way except America has gotten soft." You don't get what you want, you get what you earn. It starts with hard work. (FOX College Hoops)
