8:18 am
a high performance athlete is easy every day because it definitely isn't there a days where you can't even get up because your body hurts or because you didn't have a good workout the day before or for k, i was one of the, with the one that's when you're head comes in and you have to be strong followed because you have to be resilience. you have to face everything you're going through to continue on the path, some little light up, one thing while coming up in their final training session. marianna and her team pushed themselves to the limit one last time the world championships are being hosted by their home country, mexico. and they set their sights on victory looked at a moth also. we want it, we dream about hitler, and every day we put in a little more effort to achieve or goal representing mexico at the highest level. i thought we were annoyed at having finished 4th last year. i was a lawyer, buffalo, sudden for last time we went with very low expectations. we law. what i think what
8:19 am
we lacked was self belief for a belief that full mexicans could compete with athletes equal to or better than athletes. that was he wildly hold of him to mariana, sport demand, total control, extreme discipline. all the while mind embody, must be completely insane. i yeah, i will, it is what the mental aspect is vital and this is something that many athletes neglect as you and perhaps don't give as much weight to what fancy up. but i talked to my coach and told him, it doesn't make sense for me to train my body every day so hard that it hurts sometimes. and meanwhile, not train my mind. i would say now thankful. e. nope. when i go la mindy yet what get lazy and bizarre? laugh is different. when i started out, i got comments like you're getting too big or you're too mosley or guys don't like muscular girls for yourself. i got to a point where i didn't want to show how my body was changing because i feared the criticism yandell. when you like to do that to day. it no longer hurts or affects
8:20 am
me. whoever such comments come from wally as long as i'm fine and i accept myself. that's enough. means are you there? yeah. me as soon as you pick it up, this is with, with our mickey programming with me today. i'm doing some really well for marianna crossfit is also a journey of self discovery, a path to self acceptance. one, she openly lays bear on me not the whole year and that in a few minutes i'm going to therapy and i'm, i'm working closely with the psychologist. got it article not bearing prejudice and criticism. if you don't know how to deal with them, can be more of a strain than carrying a 300 pound barbell the little. we all have problems. we all go through things with us. some of us in silent scale, but i think we should work on it. accept sometimes we not well and accept that
8:21 am
sometimes we need help camel's the euro. marianna justin turned money with her storage. it's still her life. and now she hopes to be a world champion i it's the day the world championships begin competition spanning over 3 days on each of them. marianna and your team will complete 2 workouts, posing different physical challenges. the team is confident that there's no margin for error in the pursuit of podium finishes. total concentration is required. there can be no weak link in the group. the male members of the group begin. they must complete a range of exercises within 30 minutes. now to the women's turn for carla, the climbing rose is a real challenge,
8:22 am
so the team loses vital seconds as the arrivals move ahead of them in the competition. next, mariana has some difficulty during the handset walk, but quickly, hands over to carla who finishes faster than expected. the norwegians were 1st to finish, but a strong team performance seized. the mexicans take 2nd clicks. i made an error in the ham stand walk, but i think we managed it. it was just a matter of breathing a little bit, concentrating and executing the last task perfectly. i found out mentoring them the mexicans made a strong start to the competition. but marianna and carlos gymnastic skills are the ace up there, team sleeve in this work out they decide to have the men compete in the 1st phase. the other teams have had their women start out. once they're done,
8:23 am
it's time for mexico's women to finish things up by going head to head with the other teams men. marianna and carla don't slow down. they go toe to toe with the competition's big favorite norway. no hunting that usually no matter what happened to day makes us feel a little comma more confident for to morrow, which we know will be a big challenge. obamacare like positioning ourselves in a good place, gives us peace of mind. thank you to the mood after day one is partly a friendship trust and respect. these are the pillars of marianas, crossfit, family and throwing up crossfit entered my life at
8:24 am
a very unstable stage. was they all know when i was a teenager, i had eating disorders, problems at school, problems at home in the upper there were preconceived notions. i had in the past, which gave me the wrong idea about certain things. simply not possible for me to handle as the years went by, i became more involved in cross fed sentence competing, and obviously my body began to change. we invoke them. i think what else the compete, my mentality began to change. and there came a point when what i did with him crossfit has an impact on the rest of my life. health care look yes. yeah. then that all in correct. so i knew that if i had cross fit, nothing could break me. ah, we saw nike and got us feed savvy. i get mad, i'm employee at home. but the 2nd day of competition begins and the athletes must swim in pairs until they cover a distance of 250 meters, then run as
8:25 am
a team for 3.2 kilometers. after 9 years of training, marianna feels at ease in the water and is paired up with ricardo. but soon other teams begin to get out of the water as carla and christian are still in the pool. when they finally finished, they rush towards the athletics track where the other teams have already garnered a healthy lead. once again, it's the norwegian team that leads the way after a photo finish. marianna and your teammates take 4th place in this work out. so when was that rattle? we're in full some 8 seconds behind said i'm it was very close even though we didn't stop very well. at least we closed it out as well as we could and finished in a time. we still considered goodness, but act by what after the endurance test, the teams prepare for the 2nd work out of the day where their strength will be put to the test. the home team must improve on the morning's results and that means
8:26 am
boosting morale. their lunch break features some dancing in their apartment. a light hearted warm up before some heavy lifting. boy. ah, the mexican team enters with the aim of improving their score and aided by a strong display for marianna. they managed to catch up to the competition together with that. okay, i knew that i had to do my best to support my team. we improved on our results of this work house in comparison to our previous efforts as a competition incorporated. oh, by 6 raps. what is a good school? when a squad, the final day of the competition has arrived? and now strategy and communication will be the key quality is
8:27 am
required. between the 4 of them they must perform a series of exercises with the so called worm. a sack that weighs 365 pounds. if that wasn't difficult enough, one member must leave to perform another set of exercises as an individual, leaving the other 3 to carry the worm alone. once again, the norwegians are 1st to finish, but this time there is a sense of saw the dera t, among the teams competing against each other. if a team is last old, the teams that finish before them as that is support that speaks to it being a good community. with that, this is yet the final work out as teams by for a podium place, one last push from every squad member. each mistake is magnified the norwegian flag comes into view with them,
8:28 am
a title defense is on the cards while mexico are falling short to despite marianna, last ditch effort to close the final work out with a better time, the locals missed the mark. they finished bottom of this work out in 5th place. now they must await the official scores. ah, the time has come, costa rica takes 3rd place, ah, and mexico our 2nd. it was a long road to prepare for the competition as marianna is also on a personal journey to heal the wounds of the past and be a better athlete. day by day will quite a boy. oh, my body is a temple, thanks to me as i can do what i do every day. i'm very proud of who i am. it is my young. every muscle i have, every scar i have represents who i am. and i know that if i take care of myself and
