Mental Toughness by Mark A. Chidley, LMHC
(Click the title for the link to the article)
“If physical strength forms the base on top of which the superstructure of all other interrelated aspects of well-being are built, it makes sense that enhancing strength not only makes us feel better about ourselves in the short run, but under the right circumstances promotes overall mental health in the long run.”

The Valsalva Maneuver
Why do we Valsalva? Why do we what? That's right - you Valsalva when you lift. You take a giant breath, and you hold it as you perform the lift. This is called a Valsalva maneuver. In this video, Steph Bradford, Ph.D., of Starting Strength "discusses the role of the Valsalva Maneuver (holding your breath against a closed glottis) in strength training and why it is not only safe, but why you should do it."  Be an educated athlete and check it out!
