were days where you can't even get top because your body huts will because you didn't have a good word count the day before. okay, that's when your head comes in and you have to be strong. you have to be resilience and you have to face everything you're going through to continue on the path on the black. one thing was coming in their final training session. mariana entered team pushed themselves to the limit one last time the world championships are being hosted by their home country mexico. and they've set their sights on victory. look at a most like we wanted. we dream about taylor, and every day we put in a little more efforts to achieve our goal, representing mexico at the highest level. we were annoying having finished full smell ste. yeah. last time we went with very low expectations. i think what we lacked was self belief for the belief that full mexicans could

compete with athletes equal to go back to the slit that i was. he was quite a single type. mariana sport demands total, control, extreme discipline. all the while mind and body must be completely insane. i will say what the mental aspect is vital. this is something that many accidents, neglect and perhaps then give as much weight to it. but i talked to my coach and told him, it doesn't make sense to me to train my body every day. so hauled the ship hunt sometimes, and meanwhile, not train my mind to know sam, so no way. and then i get them into the photo gallery. cnn. sila is different when i just don't sit down. so i got comments like you're guessing too big or go to mostly, or guys don't like, must get a goals for yourself. i got to a point where i didn't want to show how my body was changing because i feel the criticism, even though when you look to them today, it no longer hurt or affects me. whoever such comments come from,

as long as i'm fine and i accept myself, that's enough. means i use davion means as long as you have sick and this is the prefer, mariana prostate is also a journey of self discovery, a path to self acceptance. one, she openly lays bare with us in a few minutes. i'm going to say repeat, i'm working closely with the psychologist bearing prejudice and criticism. if you don't know how to deal with them, can be more of a strain then carrying a 300 pound ball bell. we will have problems. we will go through things some of us in silence. but i think we should work on it. except sometimes when not well and accept that sometimes we need help them us mariana justin to earn money

with their sports. it steals her life. and now she hopes to be a world champion the it's the day the world championships begin. competition spanning over 3 days on each of them, mariana and your team will complete 2 workouts, posing different physical challenges. the team is confident that there is no margin for error in the pursuit of podium, finishes. total concentration is required. there can be no, we link in the group the male members of the group begin. they must complete a range of exercises within 30 minutes. now as the women's turn, fire, the climbing roof is a real challenge. so the team loses vital seconds as the arrivals move ahead of

them in the competition. next, mariana has some difficulty during the hands and walk, but quickly hands over to carla who finishes faster than expected the . the norwegians were 1st to finish, but a strong team performance seized. the mexicans take seconds place. i made an error in the homestead, who was i think we managed it. it was just a matter of breathing a little bit, concentrating and executing the last task perfectly. the mexicans made a strong start to the competition about mariana and carlos gymnastics. skills are the ace up their teams sleep in this work out. they decide to have the mid competes and the 1st phase. the other teams have had their women start out. once they're done, it's time for mexico's women to finish things out by going head to head with the

other teams man or the marietta and carla. don't slow down, they go toe to toe with the compositions big favorite norway the so. what happened today makes us feel a little comma more confident for tomorrow, which we know it will be a big challenge. positioning ourselves in a good place gives us peace of mind. the mood after day one is positive. friendship and trust and respect. these are the pillars of marianas, cross, fit family, a close to cross fit ended my life with a very unstable stage. was when i was a teenager, i had eating disorders,

problems at school, problems at home. they were preconceived notions. i had in the past, which gave me the wrong idea or about certain things. simply not a good handle. as the years went by, i became more involved in cross fits symptoms competing, and obviously my body began to change. we look around them, i think what else feed complete my mind, tennessee began to change and that came a points when once i did with thing, costs fits has an impact on the rest of my life. okay. look yeah, yeah. then throw in for us. so i knew that if i had cross fit, nothing could break me. yeah. me so not key. and what else? feed savvy, ask it not. i'm it will. yeah. on the 2nd day of competition begins and the athletes must swimming pears until they cover a distance of 250 meters. then run as a team for 3.2 kilometers. after 9 years of training,

mariana feels that he's in the water and just paired up with regard to the, the but soon the other teams begin to get out of the water. as carla and christiane are still in the pool. when they finally finish, they rushed towards the athletics track where the other teams have already gone through to help the lead a once again, it's the norwegian team that leads the way after a photo finish mariana and your teammates take 4th place in this warehouse. so when we get it out, we were in full time, 8 seconds behind said it was very close even though we didn't smoke very well. we closed it out as well as we could unfinished in a time. we still considered good, but, but it was 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 out in the mornings results, and that means boosting morale. their lunch break teachers,

some dancing in their apartment. a lighthearted warm up before some heavy lifting the the mexican team enters with the aim of improving their score and aided by a strong display for mariana, they managed to catch up to the competition to get the video. i knew this, i had to do my best to support my team. we improved on our results of this webcast in comparison to our previous efforts as a competition in could a total by 6 wraps, which is a good school. when of course, the final day of the competition has arrived. and now strategy and communication will be the key quality is required. between the 4 of them, they must perform a series of exercises with the so called warm

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 solidarity among the teams competing against each other. the same as most of the teams that finished before them of that just support that speaks to it being a good community. this is yet the final work out as teens. by for a podium place, one last push from every squad member. each mistake is magnified. the norwegian flag comes into view for them, a title defense is on the card swell. mexico are falling short. despite mariana is

last ditch effort to close the final work out with a better time, the locals missed the mark. they finish the bottom of this work out in 5th place. now they must await the official scores. the 5th time has come to make it takes 3rd place and mexico. i 2nd it was a long road to prepare for the competition. as mariana is also on a personal journey, to heal the wounds of the past and be a better athlete. day by day. what of course, my body is a temple the time the story is so i can do what i do every day. i'm very proud of who i am and is my in every muscle i have. if we school or i have represents who i am. i know that if i take care of myself and loved myself, i compose special and to others that
