Seven Steps To Success

Are you chasing after your dreams with all the passion and energy of an Olympic athlete, or are you setting limits — even subconsciously — on what you can achieve? “You have the power to transform your life,” says Tae Yun Kim, Ph.D., motivational speaker, martial arts grandmaster and author of Seven Steps to Inner Power: How to Break Through to Awesome (Mountain Tiger Press, 2018). “These steps are the foundation to finding and expressing the real you. No matter how that path progresses, these principles apply to everyone.”

Peruse Kim’s simple steps and do the homework to set your compass for success.

1. Body and mind as one.

If your mind and body are not acting together in pursuit of your goals, you will sabotage your efforts, Kim explains. For instance, if you set a goal to run a marathon but you eat junk food and skip workouts, you won’t succeed.

Homework:

Look ahead to your day and list three specific strategies that will help you improve your mind-body synergy. For example, if you are easily distracted, what will you do next time you get a phone call during a workout?

2. Truth.

THE POWER CLEAN (Discover this dirty little secret for better functional fitness.)

OLYMPIC LIFTS ARE A VALUABLE TOOL FOR IMPROVING STRENGTH and athletic performance — and as a side bonus, they also help develop crazy-good muscle shape, size, and definition. In fact, one could argue that the power-clean portion of the clean-and-jerk is the best exercise ever devised. “The clean is a functional movement used [routinely] in everyday activities,” says Aaron Viscounte, CSCS, head coach and manager at Summer’s Fitness Inc. in North Canton, Ohio. “We use aspects of the clean to pick up a box and put it on a shelf, move furniture or even go grocery shopping.” During a power clean, the barbell travels from the floor to the “racked” position at shoulder level and back down again. We tapped some elite trainers for their step-by-step expert advice on making the most of every rep.
