Episode Description from the Publisher

Gene Zannetti talks with Maryland state champion Cash Wheat about his three-year journey with Wrestling Mindset from a confidence-struggling sophomore to a dominant state champion, how building a confidence anchor using a simple leg slap helped him attack instead of hesitate, developing a warrior alter ego that transformed him the moment he stepped on the mat, and how the mindset work spilled over into his daily life giving him the confidence to talk to new people and feel like he belongs with high-level guys.Timestamps:1:44 - Focusing on confidence2:34 - Bounced back with Coach Mike's help4:25 - Confidence anchor: building the leg slap into a competitive trigger5:50 - Alter ego strategy7:10 - Mindset built confidence off the mat9:13 - Committed to D3 at University of Lynchburg, targeting All-American11:18 - The setback that fueled the state run14:53 - Won the state finals 12-0 before pinning his opponent in the final period🎯 This episode is sponsored by:🥗 Eat Clean Bro – eatcleanbro.comUse code MINDSET for 15% off your order💪 Champion Athletes Sports Nutrition – champion-athletes.comUse code MINDSET25 for a special discountPlease LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to the podcast and go through the archives to hear more great episodes.If you want to support the podcast, please leave a 5-star rating & review on Apple Podcasts.For all partnership and sponsorship inquiries, email mindset@wrestlingmindset.com🎙Stay connected with Wrestling Mindset🔗 Visit our website: https://www.wrestlingmindset.com/📞 Book a free consultation: https://www.wrestlingmindset.com/1-on-1-coaching/Wrestling Mindset Social MediaInstagram: / wrestlingmindsetFacebook: / wrestlingmindsetTwitter: / wrestlingmindse🎧 Listen to our podcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/65xcqo9ZdPY36HeQOltPUI Hosted on Acast.
