'The Eternal Suffering of the Endurance Mind: Lessons Learned from Tackling the Impossible'

What’s the most physically grueling workout, athletic competition, or even you’ve ever done and what strategies did you use to get through it?

In this excellent TEDxUniversityofBolton talk, Dr Colin Robertson shows that success in these endurance sports is all about your mental ability to handle the pain and fatigue of oxygen debt, about your ability to master the limits that you think you have.

Dr Colin Robertson is Senior Lecturer in Sports and Exercise Science at the University of Bolton.

Colin has been involved in human performance and sports science his entire professional career, and is currently the Head of the Athletic Development Centre, University of Bolton.

Over the past five years Colin has traveled the globe to speak at an extensive number of international conferences, on issues and topics ranging from nutrition, chronobiology, athlete preparation, and the changing state of health in western industrialised countries.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
