🔹 DAY 4 – Controlled Discomfort
Choose Your Discomfort
Every athlete faces discomfort.
The only question is when — and which kind.
One of the most important conversations I have with athletes goes like this:
“You can be uncomfortable now — getting bigger, stronger, faster —or uncomfortable later, sitting on the bench for the first time in your career.”
Today’s focus: I Introduce intentional discomfort.
Today’s task:
- Increase calories slightly above what feels “normal” (but remember "feels" is NOT Data)
- Eat before hunger shows up
- Prioritize protein and real meals
Yes — this can feel uncomfortable at first.That’s the point.
Bodies don’t change inside comfort zones.
Parents — this is where support matters most.
Encouragement > pressure.
👇 Athlete question to discuss tonight:Which discomfort would you rather choose right now?
