“The fact of the matter, is that it’s just my opinion.” Benjamin Franklin
Have you ever caught yourself saying, “Well the fact of the matter is…”?
Sometimes we can be so sure of something, that we forget that it’s actually not a fact. That it is truthfully just our opinion.
One of the most important character traits we can practice is the separation of our ego. We can hold such strong beliefs, that we can blind ourselves to other perspectives. To continue to grow into the next best version of ourselves, Franklin’s quote brings us back to the basics of humility. Always an open mind. Always a student.

TEACHING
DOUBLE UNDERS & RUN
Kiss the Heels
Doing double unders on your heels would feel ridiculous. There wouldn’t be any bounce and it would probably hurt a little. But this is sometimes what happens when we run. On both movements today, let’s focus on kissing the heels on the ground. This means the forefoot makes contact first, then the heels gently touch down after. On the jump rope, this helps avoid the calves locking up from staying on the toes the whole time and enables athletes to use the stretch reflex the kissing of the heel creates. On the run, this prevents heel striking, which puts on the brakes and isn’t so great on the joints. We’ll jump some rope to get the feel of the heels kissing before heading out for the run. Just like on the rope, the feet will stay right under the body during the run.
