really liked it

The mind gym gave me a lot of valuable information and was rich with examples of inspiring stories (often where athletes picked themselves up.) This was nice since I’m going through my whole acl surgery/recovery. I will say that it was hard for me to really get into the book just because many of the athletes talked about and references made were to sports I’m not as familiar with. Never the less though, I found a lot of relatable scenarios and I’m defiantly taking away from the book that the mind can have a lot more control of your abilities than even your actually body can.

I do want to keep reading it though because first of all I think there are some valuable things I will get out of it and secondly because it was recommended to me to help me through my ACL tear/recovery. I hope it grows on me more!"

Other than that though, I’ve learned a few good points from and and have every been able to totally relate to some of the aspects!"
