Foster’s is not just a gym it’s a home. Anyone with a good heart, great attitude and killer work ethic is welcome! We are home to Pride Softball. #fosterfreak
A great coach once told me that good coaches take complex ideas and make them simple, while a bad coach who wants to appear like they know what they are doing takes ideas and concepts and makes them more complex.
Ballplayers:
NOT working hard on your hitting, fielding, pitching this Summer?!
NOT serious about getting faster & stronger?!
NOT putting in work learning & being a student of the game?!
NOT sacrificing time for the reps needed to gain confidence?!
Welcome Home!!

Played on 6 different teams in 2 years...
-But the coach is always the problem
-But the coach doesn’t know what he’s doing
-But the team just isn’t good enough
Maybe the grass ain’t always greener on the other side & possibly the real problem isn’t what you think!

PARENTS of ballplayers!:
Coaches & recruiters don’t look only at your kid’s social media posts as they recruit, they look at PARENTS posts as well! Parental issues are just as detrimental! NO coach wants to deal w/ crazy parents! Negativity kills chemistry!

So let me get this straight, The 🐐 Didn’t like his GM personally, never demanded a trade, went to work everyday did his job until they won 6 championships. But kids today will leave HS,AAU & college teams bc the coach isn’t into to being your buddy or finessing your feelings.
If you are angry at decisions being made by leaders take that anger and turn it into productive action.
Work for leaders you like. Get involved in your local community. Vote.
Tweeting despair or yelling at your uncle feels good for one minute but does not help you or the world.
Earlier today Thor Björnsson aka "The Mountain" from Game of Thrones, broke the deadlift world record, lifting 501 kg (1,105 lbs) from his home in Reykjavik, Iceland.
He won the World's Strongest Man competition in 2018 and has finished 3rd or better every year since 2012.
Having a rough morning. Getting caught up in frustration about the world. Reminder to myself to practice what I preach. Align my actions with my values. Do what I can. Be kind to others and myself. Put local community first. Be present for what's in front of me.
It's not easy.
