Building Toughness

Toughness is a hard thing to define. Some people think that it’s summed up by being resilient or by having fortitude. However, I think we can all agree that “tough” has a new definition—the year 2020. And while we’ve now left 2020 behind, we are still feeling some of its effects. So how do we develop “toughness” in the midst of hard times? And why does being “tough” matter? Well, there might be more to being tough than meets the eye. Here to answer these questions and talk with us about what toughness is and how to develop it is nationally competitive weight-lifter, coach, and author of new book “Tough”, Greg Everett.
