The Art of Impossible: A Peak Performance Primer
by Steven Kotler.
The author asks us to work on our weak spots even in the exercise. How cna you do that?
In one exercise, the coach said that when we work at the gyn, we only work in one plane and dont do lateral exercises much. Now I try to do jump rope side to side, as well as all around jumping-jacks some times. Mobius is one way to hang-around in your weak spots for a bit and imagine doing the all-directional squat.
Steven Kotler shows us how he trains his cognitive abilities. he practises a speech when he is burnt out or doing strenuous activities like hiking. Suneel Gupta in his book Backable, introduces the Rule of 21 where he suggests that to get comfortable with your speech or pitch, practise it 21 tmes in different settings. He practised it with his child. Similar concept that if you can do something in a non-ideal situation, you will be better prepared if things dont go as planned on the big day or if there is an interruption in your trian of thought.
