Description

How does a two-time Olympic gymnast (soon to be three-time with the upcoming Tokyo Games) mentally and physically prepare for one of the most competitive and watched sporting events in the world? We find out in this week's podcast as we welcome Team USA's top men's gymnast Samuel Mikulak, who aside from his Olympic appearances, is also a six-time U.S. national all-around champion and eight-time NCAA Champion. Samuel offers tips on creating balance in your life, explains the benefits of mindfulness practice and meditation, lays bare his diet and exercise routine, and discusses his upcoming retirement from the sport and how he is preparing for life after gymnastics.
