TRAIN WITH A COACH THAT YOU RESPECT
According to Sara, a good coach should:
“should understand the mind of their athlete, never be controlling, and be willing to learn and hear your opinion.”
Sara feels that this two way relationship between a coach and an athlete is important to stimulate growth and keep training exciting, effective and fulfilling. For example she will often design workouts herself. For exmaple this one below was her answer when I asked her to describe her perfect workout.

What goes through your mind right before a workout?
ENJOY YOURSELF
Sara Sigmundsdottir competes with her almost unrivaled determination and desire to win. She is switched on, focused and serious before each WOD begins. But watch her afterwards and you see a beaming smile light up her face, and an Icelandic girl that loves to compete and to better herself.
She strikes an excellent balance between being serious and dedicated about the process and her goals, but also does not forget to stop and savour the moment.
