Work on your Weaknesses


AL MVP- man that's got a nice ring to it-Dustin Pedroia recently did an interview with Core Performance (http://www.coreperformance.com/play_better/baseball/Dustin_Pedroias_Most_Valuable_Advice.html). Possessing a smaller frame, people are often curious/envious how he performs with such every-day toughness. The best piece of advice I felt he gave was to work on your weaknesses.

I often tell my clients they must put the majority of their focus on training their weaknesses. For many, this is nutrition. For others, it may be getting enough consistent sleep. Long story short: stop spending so much time doing what you are already good at and put more focus into turning your weaknesses into your strengths. If you only have 30 minutes and increasing your strength is a priority, why are you on the treadmill?


Listen to Pedroia- he knows what he's talking about.
