The Performance Audit

The Warm Up
When you do not warm up your muscles, you are immediately putting tension on dormant parts of your body. This is similar to pulling your bike out of the garage, starting it up, and then immediately going 100 mph.

Everything Has A Purpose
I have been there too. I have spent countless hours working on my bike and making sure it is ready to go. I did this without taking that same time and ensuring that my body was ready to go.

This Is The Time To Win Championships
The common thought is that you have to win every race to win championships and that the races are the only thing that matter. Sometimes that may be true, but championships are truly won during another time. The way you perform during the races is important. You have to be able to last the entire season and perform at a high level. The time where championships are truly won is during the off season. This may be a summer break or after the season ends up until the next season s

Is This The Biggest Racing Mistake?
I have been actively racing dirt bikes in off-road since I was 10 years old. After I incorporated this one thing into my program for racing, I finally earned my first National Championship. From when I first hopped on the bike, I absolutely loved to go out and ride. Motocross tracks, trail rides, pit bikes, races, I used it all to hopefully get me into better conditioning for the racing that mattered. It worked up to a certain point, then I was competing at a level that made

What If
Imagine there are two people mining for gold at the same time, using the same equipment, and they are in the same location. Both miners were given a plan to follow knowing that gold lies in this mine a certain distance away. They both become weak and exhausted due to the long hours in the mine. One person throws in the towel (quits) because they have been there for several days with no results to show for it. The other continues to dig in the mine following the plan and knowi

Put Your Phone Away
I hope by this point in time we all understand the importance of sleep and the role it plays in your recovery. Athlete or not, sleep is the number one time when your body recovers from stress and activity from the day. The only way your body will use sleep to it's fullest potential is if you treat it with the respect it deserves. Before I explain what I mean by that, lets learn what sleep is. There are four stages in the sleep cycle. They are; Stage 1 - NREM, Stage 2 - NREM,

life is what you put in
Results do not come without effort. In the same vein, effort does not guarantee a specific result. In fact, nothing can guarantee the result that you want. He is what I have learned from my experience. While nothing can guarantee results, the only thing that can give you the best opportunity of becoming successful is by putting in an extraordinary amount of the correct effort. For example, doing the bare minimum at your job, what is expected of you, will not lead to a promoti

Introducing Vector Forge
A Vector is a force applied in a specific direction. Forge is to create through concentrated pressure and effort. Over all the sports I have played and took part in so far, there have been two common themes. Those themes are intentional pressure and having goals. The thing is that those two themes are what will lead you to be successful in anything you do. Let us take running for example. You can have a goal to run a marathon, that is great, but a goal alone will not get y

What your body craves during exercise
Here is something I learned this week that I haven’t heard anyone talk about… Everyone talks about how important it is to drink water because of how much our bodies are composed of water. They also talk about how it is important to replenish fluid and electrolytes lost from sweat. This is only just the beginning of how important it is to properly hydrate. What I have not heard anyone talk about is how water impacts your muscular performance. Your muscles are composed of cell
