Mike Gillette was one of the smallest and weakest kids in his class... he grew up in what was basically a broken home...domestic abuse, drugs, alcohol...the works. https://www.fitstep.com/goto/12/strength-psychology.htm You see, when Mike was a child he couldn’t have been further away from the person he is today. He was small. He was weak. And he was afraid of EVERYTHING. His personal story is one of weakness transformed into strength. We covered his background (amazing stuff), why he does what does and HOW he mentally "flips the switch" to instantly perform at the highest level and how YOU can take YOUR mind to the next level as well. This is great stuff and it'll really help you get to know one of the most impressive and exceptional people I've had the privilege of talking to...and see what makes him tick. --- To give you a little more background, Mike has time spent as: *An army paratrooper *A SWAT commander *A member of the Martial Arts Masters Hall of Fame *A counter-terrorism consultant to the Department of Homeland Security *A bodyguard to Fortune 500 executives and film stars, like Sylvester Stallone, and… *A record-setting strongman who has been featured in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not and Guinness World Record Mental strength isn’t genetic. You’re not born with toughness of mind. No. Mike developed a tough mind by dealing with what life threw at him. He knows what it takes to go from your ‘today’ self to your tough-minded ‘warrior’ self. He understands you can literally take ANYONE - applying his Three Steps of mastering mental toughness - and instantly improve how they deal with situational changes or a crisis when it arises. ---- Mike’s Three Steps to Mental Toughness Revealed https://www.fitstep.com/goto/12/strength-psychology.htm -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to my YouTube channel and Facebook page for more unique exercises and unconventional training methods: YouTube Channel ► http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=nilssonnick Facebook ► http://www.facebook.com/nicknilssonmadscientist Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/nicknilsson1/
