Success begins with aligning your passion and mental focus, coupled with dedicated effort. When you wholeheartedly invest in your aspirations, you not only increase the likelihood of achievement but also pave a path that brings you halfway closer to realizing your desired goal.
Kevin “Bubbles” Gregory, a humble world DEKA champion, shared his humble beginnings in attaining his championship title and stressed that achieving the desired championship took years of hard work. Kevin did not hesitate to be coached by people better than him with extensive experience. He sought their advice to reduce the time spent making mistakes or eliminate them entirely.
As an athlete, Kevin searched for something to keep him accountable in his career — not just to show up, but to have fun with purpose. From joining OCR in 2011 to discovering DEKA and becoming the champion.
In a competition in 2022, Kevin did not anticipate feeling uncomfortable with the footstrap of the machine. It was a lesson learned that he could only control his reaction and mind because he couldn't do anything with the machine's strap.
Kevin studies and observes people performing better in competitions, aiming to beat their records in his training. He emphasizes performing reps perfectly to make it the norm in the mind and the default movement pattern. Kevin possesses physical and mental presence. He delves into the science of how to perform better, incorporating strength, presence of mind, and science to achieve and share his goals with those wanting to learn from him.
Sharing ideas, tips, and strategies with beginners is Kevin’s goal this year, aiming to create more teams in his gym. The most effective way is to learn or study, then do the work, then repeat the process.
