Subtle effort

“We have the wrong concept for effort. We think it means forcing, digging in, and trying harder. It doesn’t. It means trusting our body to do what we trained it to do. Effort should be subtle. Not loud.” | Tom Tellez, legendary track and field coach who coached 9-time Olympic gold medalist Carl Lewis.
