The Mindset of a CHAMPION Killer Instinct
I’ve talked about various aspects of my champion mindset here in the past. I’d say the strongest asset in my mindset is what I call my killer instinct. I believe that if you don’t have that, you’re not going to make it to the top of any field. You won’t have a chance. You won’t have a prayer! Killer instinct goes back to having heart, desire, passion, dedication, and determination all rolled into one.

MAXIMIZE YOUR SLEEP RECOVERY
Sleep is one of the most underappreciated performance enhancers. Sleep is essential to humans and animals alike. It really isn’t known exactly why humans and animals must sleep, but we know that we can’t live without it. Daily stress and burning the midnight oil are certain to lead to failure to recover from your training and possibly overtraining syndrome. Furthermore, many studies show that lack of sleep (less than five hours per night) can lead to significant medical problems including cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

HUNTER LABRADA THE DYNASTY CONTINUES
In the fall of 1987 as I was turning 18, I discovered bodybuilding magazines and immediately became enthralled with the sport and its top stars of the time. While I was inspired by the massive physiques of Mr. Olympia Lee Haney and his rivals like Mike Christian and Gary Strydom, I found them otherworldly and impossible to relate to as a kid of only 5-foot8 and 140 pounds, as each stood around 6 feet and tipped the scales around 250. Yet there was one man who was neither particularly tall nor heavy, a Cuban immigrant from Houston named Lee Labrada who was referred to as “Mass with Class.”

TRAINING PRINCIPLES FOR POWER
Muscular power is the amount of weight lifted, multiplied by the velocity of the weight is lifted. For example, lifting 315 pounds for one repetition in five seconds demonstrates greater muscular power than performing the same lift at a slower rate of six seconds.
