DAILY MINDSET
“Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but rather by the seeds you plant.”
– Robert Lewis Stevensen

The definition of “success” is whatever we make of it.

Many directly link results to success. And the lack thereof, to failure. But what if we reshaped that way of thinking. What we measured success, as the seeds we “plant for tomorrow”? What if we decide that a successful day is deemed so purely by how much we learned?

We can view days as tests.
Or we can view days as opportunities.
Let’s choose the latter, as we know in how different those trajectories will be.

MOBILITY 
Banded Hamstring Stretch: 45 Seconds Each Side
Laying on their backs, athletes will loop one end of the band around the middle of the foot. The first goal is to bring the leg as far towards the face as possible while keeping it straight. The second goal is to push the heel towards the ceiling to intensify the stretch.

Banded Cross Body Stretch: 45 Seconds Each Side
After completing the hamstring stretch, swing the banded leg across the body to feel a stretch in the outside of the hip and lower back. The goal here is to keep the back shoulder on the ground. Take big deep breaths to deepen the stretch.
