There have been many threads on Coach Huey over the years about getting your players "mentally tough".

This is one of the the best articles I have ever read on that particular subject:

I do not believe that crossfit/MMA groups are making people douchebags, but I do know that douchebags are almost universally attracted to the crossfit/MMA scene, it's like catnip for them...

At the age of 57 I doubt I'll start anytime soon. I like to think I'm pretty mentally tough. That's the key to me. If you want tough players be a tough coach.
