Vince Poscente’s Olympic secret? A pink rubber suit and a car roof. You’ve got to hear this!

Ever wonder how someone goes from hitting the slopes for fun to competing in the Olympics in just four years?

This is Vince Poscente’s story and he spills all this and more in this episode of “Success for the Athletic-Minded Man” podcast.

Vince is an Olympian and a New York Times bestselling author of eight books, which include “The Earthquake” and “The Age of Speed.” He is an in-demand, corporate presenter and Hall of Fame Speaker in both Canada and the USA. Vince has also led expeditions to the summit and named Himalayan mountains after everyday heroes.

In this interview, Vince shares the truth about the discomfort and determination it takes to go from zero to Olympic hero. His journey isn’t just about skiing fast— it’s about doing what the competition isn’t willing to do. Imagine strapping yourself to the roof of a car to perfect your aerodynamics. Yep, Vince did that.

But this episode isn’t just about skiing; it's a masterclass in mindset, resilience, and the power of unconventional thinking. Vince’s strategy of using visualization and biofeedback, along with his mantra of “doing what others won’t,” is something you can apply to any goal— big or small.

Whether you're aiming for a personal best or a new career high, this episode will inspire you to push past your limits and embrace the extraordinary. Don't miss it!
