What is The Athlete?

The Athlete aims to connect sports to every day life, whether that is in the form of mindsets, mental health, optimizing performance, nutrition, training advice or general fitness content.

The Athlete takes the tools that the best athletes use and applies them to every day life to help people become their better self.

Sports is really a simplified version of life, in sports you have a goal that you work towards and you fail a LOT, but you get back up and you keep moving towards that goal, sometimes something unexpected happens, sometimes you get last place, sometimes your coach yells at you, but you push through. Life is very similar but it has more distractions, more challenges, more advanced versions of what you see in sports, but if you can break these things down, and realize them for what they really are then you can have so much power in your life.

The Athlete’s goal is to take these things that we learn in sports and help others apply them to better themselves and their life.
