The Bear Grylls Survival Challenge is an educational experience but also a test.

Action Steps: Try taking on a challenge to test yourself. Be out in nature. Leanne said: "It was an extraordinary experience. Very humbled by nature. It's a real privilege to be amongst that land and those hills, just feeling like I was part of something that was much bigger than me." "It's a great example of what could happen when you get into your discomfort zone, and just being part of something that's much, much bigger than yourself, basically." Thanks for listening!

What is it like to participate in the world’s toughest ski race? Would you be up for the challenge? Listen in as I tell you all about it and take you through the journey! Who knows? The Arctic Circle Race just might be the next extreme adventure you’re looking for! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The Arctic Circle Race and why we did it How we prepared for the race My thoughts on the journey What the experience was like Key Takeaways: Both mental and physical endurance are very much needed to take on this kind of challenge. Incredibly powerful things happen when you push yourself into your discomfort zone. You don’t have to go as big as we’ve gone with The Arctic Circle Race, it might be learning an instrument, going online dating, learning a new language, or playing a sport. Taking on a challenge and achieving something is good for your confidence and your resilience. You get a bit more comfortable in very uncomfortable situations. You feel a little more comfortable with unpredictability, and life is unpredictable. A key part of resilience is not your toughness. It’s not what you can endure. It’s more around if you have the tools to cope with the various things that life throws at you and the emotional bandwidth to deal with them. Action Steps: If you are doing a fundraising event, set a really big target and don’t be afraid to ask people to support you. Do something that takes you into your discomfort zone. Have a think about what that thing might be and make sure it’s the appropriate level of challenge at the appropriate time. Leanne said: “[The Arctic Circle Race] is absolutely brutal. It’s the most extraordinary challenge. It’s more like the world’s toughest herring boning and walking race with bits of skiing.” “If you feel that life is pretty smooth and you want to test yourself in some way, then start to look at what you can do. Kick some ideas around.” Thanks for listening! If you want to ask any questions about this, give any feedback, or perhaps kick out some suggestions for future events that we could do or that you’re thinking of doing, we’d love to hear from you!

Why are more and more people moving away from the more conventional types of exercise to these to tough, mugged, gritty, difficult sporting events? Take a listen and explore the topic with SAS Who Dare Wins’ Spencer Locker. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: Why people are drawn to extreme sporting events Physical conditioning versus mental and emotional conditioning Getting to your discomfort zone and improving resilience Spencer’s experience with getting in people’s faces and getting people to a little shy of breaking point and how he recovers from it Key Takeaways: When you start thinking about conditioning to achieve something, there’s a WHY behind it. If there wasn’t a point to it, people wouldn’t do it. Mental and emotional conditioning is a difficult thing, as compared to physical conditioning. In today’s society, people are recognizing that they’re not being challenged in any way, shape or form. As a species, we are hard-wired to be resilient. That’s how we’ve progressed from hunter-gatherers living in caves to us now living in the digital world where everything is instant. Resilience is a muscle that needs to be worked. Like any other attribute, you need to keep practicing it and you need to keep challenging it to be aware of your level of resilience and maintain it or improve it. One of the fundamentals of resilience is honesty. Once you start taking accountability and learning from your mistakes, people see that and you start building credibility and integrity. Action Steps: Push yourself out of your comfort zone. Be honest with yourself and take responsibility for things. Don’t resort to blaming something or somebody else for when things go wrong. Take accountability and learn from your mistakes. Stop treating people with suspicion and start joining together and working together. Spencer said: “We are busy at work, we do get challenged at work, but for us to be able to deal with that challenge, we’ve also got to be resilient, we’ve got to be able to deal with it. And you can’t do that by reading a blog or watching a vlog or downloading an app.” “We have to, as a species, be resilient. We’ve got to try things, we’ve got to fail at things. But society doesn’t allow us to fail.” Thanks for listening!
