40
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: love that.

41
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: I bet you look very different than Tony Abbott and Speeder.

42
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: Twenty nine sleeps until the opening ceremony, Harry.

43
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: That means you'll be shocked up at the athletes village, right.

44
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, mate, I'm very excited to get in there

45
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 3: and be around the other Aussies and it's pretty it's

46
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,839
Speaker 3: pretty exciting to be within a month now.

47
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: Because I was going to say that is that hard

48
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: boxing sort of a solo sport? Do you know what

49
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: I mean? And then you're sort of going into like

50
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: this sharehouse situation. Is it hard to keep focused in

51
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: your mind right for the fight?

52
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 3: It's interesting, I think. I think it's exciting. You have

53
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 3: this like thrill of being around other athletes and other

54
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 3: high performance, but of course it is absolutely distracting you

55
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 3: sort of. There's a lot of energy and a lot

56
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: of noise going on, but it's one of those things

57
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 3: like you just try and embrace it and enjoy it.

58
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 3: But yeah, you're also got to like make sure you

59
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 3: take into account, like your performance is the most important thing,

60
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 3: so making sure you're packing like you bug.

61
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mask know you're sharing a room, right,

62
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: You're not sharing surely?

63
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 3: Now we share every usual or we did in Tokyo,

64
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: and I'm pretty sure it's true to a room in Paris.

65
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: Even on sweet or is it like a hostel situation

66
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 4: where you have to wear thongs in the shower because

67
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 4: so many people it's you.

68
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: I think it's just assis in there, so it's not other.

69
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 3: It's just not in other countries. But yeah, you'd be

70
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 3: sharing with Alban most likely sharing with other boxes. So

71
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 3: I know the boxes pretty well. It's not too bad.

72
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 3: They're like family, But it's it's the living conditions in there,

73
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: Like you think it might be amazing, but it's it's

74
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 3: pretty stock standard sort of.

75
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 5: Stuff, pretty basic.

76
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: Hey, Harry, preparation, Just be careful because it's twenty five

77
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: past eight and kids in carts and stuff. But have

78
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: you done the bonk band thing again?

79
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: I have, mate, It's the first couple of weeks were

80
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 3: pretty challenging. I think. I'm like, I think it's like

81
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: week four, week five. Now it's been been a while,

82
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: so I'm sort of through it now, Like you're sort

83
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 3: of exhausted from training that you don't really think at

84
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: it too much. But I'm sure postal and bigs'll be

85
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 3: a bit of a bit of fun going on.

86
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 5: Are you single? You figure a partner? Are you single?

87
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: I'm a single man, But I think it might be

88
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: a pretty short performance after having a few.

89
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: Is that to heighten like testosterone levels?

90
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 5: Why there's actually a technical SI.

91
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 3: There's all these stories. Apparently it's all made up. Apparently

92
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 3: there's a bit of a myths so you can get

93
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 3: studies on both sides that agree and then disagree. So

94
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 3: I'm also doing it for just mind control. Like we

95
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 3: all have desires, we all want to like I'm cutting

96
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 3: out coffee in the moment. We all want to drink coffee.

97
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 3: We all want to go relieve ourselves and have some

98
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 3: fun by ourselves. But the more that I can, I

99
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: guess withstand that sort of stuff and restrain myself, I

100
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 3: think I just feel more powerful.

101
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: That's weird because my wife's put me one.

102
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 4: I'm not going to I was about to say, maybe

103
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 4: I need to all training for the Olympics, the boxing.

104
00:04:53,880 --> 00:05:00,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, I ain't going to Paris.

105
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 4: Harry, at what point do you start getting nervous or

106
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 4: do you not get nervous?

107
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know. I definitely get nervous right now.

108
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 3: I'm nervous. There's like a whole cocktail of emotions that

109
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: you feel within a day, within a week, And I

110
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: think there's just like as athletes, you put a lot

111
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 3: of pressure on ourself and I love that, Like I

112
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 3: love the feeling of being in my body and feeling

113
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 3: nervous and also feeling extremely confident. It's exciting. I think

114
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 3: I have just consistently my whole life chased things that

115
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: make me feel very alive, and I think chasing on

116
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 3: the gold medal has definitely made me feel very alive

117
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 3: in my life, and there's been many other things that

118
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 3: have helped me with that too.

119
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: Harry, surely be a chance for the flag bearer, wouldn't it.

120
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 3: I don't think so. Jess Fox is.

121
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kayaker now Harry Bronze in Tokyo which was twenty

122
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 2: twenty or twenty twenty one because of COVID four years on,

123
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 2: you've visualized yourself winning gold. Tell the guys about what

124
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 2: you do with visualization and why you do it.

125
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 3: So every morning I wake up, I meditate. I think

126
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: it's like a really good way to start the day.

127
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: You mean, it's the time of the day when my

128
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 3: brain is the quietest, which is also quite nice. And

129
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 3: then I spend ten minutes just visualizing myself and I

130
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 3: try and visualize things that I can control. I think

131
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 3: when people visualize, we often visualize things that are out

132
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 3: of our control, Like you're visualizing sometimes the color of

133
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 3: shorts your wearing, which is out of our control. But

134
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: I can control what foot I use to step up

135
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 3: on the podium. I can control the action of how

136
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 3: I duck as someone puts the metal on my neck.

137
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 3: I can control those motions, but I can't control a

138
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 3: lot of things, like the color that I'm wearing. I

139
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 3: can't control the hand that the referee lifts my hand with.

140
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 3: I can't control that sort of stuff. So the things

141
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: that I can control, I try and visualize. And it's

142
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 3: really nice. There is some days that you can really

143
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 3: see those visuals in your brain. I think when you

144
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 3: feel really connected to it, you can really see it.

145
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 3: So it is nice. And yeah, yeah throughout the day

146
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: as well, I have about like ten alarms and go

147
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 3: off and have to try and do like a little

148
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: minute visualization of standing on top of the stadium. So

149
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 3: that's amazing.

150
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: So you can be in the line down at Combank

151
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: and your alarm goes off and you're like you just

152
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 1: sit there with your eyes closed and imagine the metal.

153
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you see me driving and my eyes are closed.

154
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: The alarms just go off.

155
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: Harry, Harry love this show and we can't wait the
