Insurance executive and entrepreneur Art Williams on motivation:
“Almost everybody can stay excited for 2 or 3 months. A few people can stay excited for 2 or 3 years. But a winner will stay excited for 30 years or however long it takes to win.”

There’s so many ups and downs in this sport and we as a society are accustomed to both the quick hit of dopamine and the endless self- comparison on social media, it can be a little crazy -making at times.
Outcome goals are fantastic to set and achieve, but its process goals and the habits we build working on them that lead to great outcomes. It’s also the focus on the process that will keep us engaged over the long haul. As a fitness and positioning coach, I’m very focused on both the “ 10,000 foot view” of where we need to “ move the needle” and the small things or “ incremental gains” that add up to success.

Bike Fitting
EQUIPMENT UPGRADES!
It was a busy week in the fitting studio. I invested in a new Wahoo KICKR ,and ordered a new Gebiomized saddle pressure mapping system.
I’m super excited about the level of fitting and feedback I’ll be able to deliver, and expect to solve even more challenging issues for clients.
Stay tuned for more on this front!
Be well,
Coach Johnny
