This was a quote by Michael Phelps coach, Bob Bowman when talking about Phelps’ (and his fellow swimmer’s) training regime. Bowman not only trains Olympic swimmers but he also trains thoroughbred racehorses.
I liked that quote because it shows that the people at the top of their sport don’t get their by genetics or luck (although both of those would help). Those people, more likely than not, train much harder than the rest of the field.

Brilliant quote! This absolutely applies to all walks of life. We all need to take a step back and sometimes ask for help every now and then. I once used freedom business franchise for my website and was very pleased with the result. If I hadn’t thought to use other resources, I would probably be dead! =)
