Here are a few tips from Annie Thorisdottir to help you become a better athlete

‘KEEP A POSITIVE MINDSET’

 Annie Thorisdottir is famous for her beaming smile and optimistic outlook. She pushes her limits daily, and in competitions, her perspective is exactly the same. Taking time to work on having the right mental attitude can have huge effects on your performances.

EMBRACE YOUR COMPETITIVE SPIRIT

Annie Thorisdottir is both humble, yet open to admit that she wants to win whenever she competes. She is fiercely competitive, which helps you to improve in Crossfit, yet her ego doesn’t get in the way if she finishes in second place. For her she doesn’t lose, either she wins or learns a lesson.

‘Identify your finish line – and as soon as you get there find the next one. Having goals is essential to growing, essential to learning, essential to be better than you were yesterday.’
