For the first hour of a heavy-training day, Crouser focuses on stretching and getting his body moving.
In the second half of the day, Crouser does a "sprint plyometric workout," including sprints of up to 40 meters, to work on acceleration, he said.
On an average day, Crouser might eat:Five eggs, a quarter-pound turkey sausage, cheese, one cup of oats with flaxseeds, and one cup of berries.
Mindset training is Crouser's key to successCrouser puts in countless hours of training but will have only six throws at the Olympics.
