081: Tues 9/3/2019 - Don’t keep that “I’m old” mindset.

It’s my birthday today and you will hardly hear me say that I’m “old”. It’s an “old” mindset that negatively influences your body. I discuss my perspective and hopefully inspire a few to take on a different mindset. Warning ⚠️I get a bit ranty! Check out my IG @dr.yasi_fit

So you’ve got a great routine for the day of your competition, but maybe you can tweak it for greater results. This was my conclusion after the Austin Open. Adjusting a few things for the next big competition will reduce my stress for sure! Follow me on IG at @dr.yasi_fit 🥋
