As a Personal Trainer, How Would You Motivate the Cleveland Indians On Their World
Series Run?
Fitness Together Personal Trainer Brooke Kratche showing her love for the Windians |
Brooke Kratche: At this point in the Indians season, they are done with heavy training. The hard work is done and now all they need to worry about is their mental training. Practice times anymore need to be used for batting practice and pitching practice just to keep loose and ready to play. Most importantly though, they need to take time each day to prepare mentally. I would advise them to visualize themselves in game situations and succeeding. If they can visualize it, the real game situations will not make them feel as much pressure.
In the same way, we all need to be able to visualize ourselves reaching our goals. Never lose sight of it and you will be more likely to stay motivated!
Go Tribe!
Lisa Clark: My motivational quote for the
Indians as they continue their journey towards the World Series is......
“There may be people that have more talent than you, but there is no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do.” – Derek Jeter
Keep up the hard work
Indians!!

Mike Roberto: Our
Cleveland Indians are doing a fantastic job in the playoffs! But as they
progress further into the series, who knows which team will try to overthrow
this powerhouse. All I can say is that they should stay limber and
stretch as often as possible. Not only does stretching keeps the muscles
loose but also reduces the risk for injury. Foam rolling tight or sore
muscles might help the Indians loosen up as well. Doing so increases the
range of motion and allows you to become stronger in that extended range,
eventually getting to that range without the foam roller.
Cody Plank: To
help motivate the Indians on their Word Series run I would stress the issue of
playing the same kind of baseball that got them to this point, meaning prepare
for each game the same as they did in the regular season and the same goes with
their body's. I would use this strategy to help keep my players calm and keep
them in the moment rather than overthinking or thinking ahead.
Amanda Ricci: A
fitness tip that I would give to the Cleveland Indians during their run to the
World Series would be that their games are just important as their off time.
In between games, players should make sure they meditate and rest their muscles
when not playing baseball. If the players have any injuries icing them is
important and taking time to clear their mind and visualizing the game will be
helpful in assisting them in their success. Also just making sure that
each player is on the same page as far as communication is concerned so that
they have the ability to work as a team to achieve their victory.
Justin Traft: If
I had a motivational tip for the Cleveland Indians during their run to the
World Series it would be this. Don't get caught up in the bad plays or calls and
focus on what's ahead of them. Play for each other and no one else. Let the nay
Sayers be. Let them talk and bash us. Use it as fuel when you’re feeling tired.
Making history in Cleveland sports should be all you need to keep plugging
along. Play smart and keep your eye on the prize. After all we are the comeback
city! All in CLE!
