How do you balance the life as a Texas Strongman with a family and a successful career? GASP athlete, Austin Haye, takes us inside the world of being a competitive strongman. ► Shop GASP Apparel & Accessories: http://bbcom.me/2nH1SR5 | Follow Strongman Austin Haye | ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tx_strength/ | Introduction | Heavyweight Texas Strongman Austin Haye is currently working in the financial industry as a Credit Analyst at a bank. | Personal Fitness Goals | My personal fitness goals have always been more or less to improve on what I’ve already built and (more recently) staying healthy. …destination has given me that environment that inspires hard work and intensity, as well as the equipment I need for training towards whatever goal I’m chasing. | Biggest Obstacles | Time commitments with family and injuries. While I love pumping iron and getting stronger, my family always has to come first. With a baby on the way, I’ll have to balance my time a little more efficiently to make sure I’m not missing out on anything important at home. Injuries have also been an obstacle I seem to keep running to, especially in 2016. I herniated a disc in my lower back in 2013 and never got it fixed, then it ruptured a year later and I had to get surgery to fix it at the end of 2014. Ever since then, I’ve struggled mentally to work past the fear of re-injuring it. | Advice for Fellow Fitness Enthusiasts | 1. Set goals and write them down. There’s a sense of accountability towards yourself when you write goals down on paper and commit to them. 2. Find others to pursue those goals with you. Whether that’s joining one of the many group training sessions at …destination or putting together a training crew, it’s always better to train with other people. I’m always encouraged to push myself harder and put more effort into my training when I’ve got other people there with me putting in just as much effort. 3. Enjoy fitness – but don’t obsess over it. The point of fitness is to enhance your quality of life, not limit it. Granted, there are times when you’ll have to prep for a show or a meet and you will have to have a very strict schedule/diet, but this should only be for the season. But when you’re not competing, don’t cancel plans with family and friends because it interferes with leg day, or don’t limit the places you’ll go/travel because you won’t have access to boiled chicken and broccoli (that’s a bit extreme, but you know what I’m getting at). ========================================­===== | Strongman Austin Haye's Favorite GASP Apparel | ► GASP Ribbed T-Back Tank: http://bbcom.me/2nGUwNj ► GASP Vintage T-Back: http://bbcom.me/2nG5t1E ► GASP Basic Utility Tee: http://bbcom.me/2nGogd0 ► GASP Jersey Training Pant: http://bbcom.me/2BJzYwn ► GASP No. 89 Mesh Pant: http://bbcom.me/2BK0RQR ►GASP #1 Mesh Shorts: http://bbcom.me/2nGJIPb ► GASP Gym Hood Jacket: http://bbcom.me/2nItoNU | Strongman Austin Haye's Favorite GASP Accessories | ► GASP Training Belt: http://bbcom.me/2BJzZQX ► GASP Power Belt: http://bbcom.me/2nHcSxF ► GASP Power Wrist Straps: http://bbcom.me/2nI3Bpj ► GASP Hardcore Wrist Wraps: http://bbcom.me/2BYah6X ========================================­===== | Bodybuilding.com | ► Supplement Store: http://bbcom.me/2nHWKw6 ► Sales & Specials: http://bbcom.me/2nKjvzl ► Fitness Articles: http://bbcom.me/2nIISkY ► Premium Fitness Plans: http://bbcom.me/2BJA2MD ========================================­===== | Follow Us | ► Twitch: http://bit.ly/2q1dttE ► YouTube: http://bit.ly/1RSJFa4 ► Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1lomhpr ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/1LzBxab ► Twitter: http://bit.ly/1RSJQlL ► Google+: http://bit.ly/1NRe8qu ► Pinterest: http://bit.ly/1OOZgY4 ► Spotify: http://spoti.fi/1NRebm0 We are Bodybuilding.com.
