How they got to that point is erroneous, but what happens WHEN they reach that point is what is fascinating, and very telling, of humans and their nature. The eyes reflect the strength of the soul, and with it the mindset, attitude, belief systems, etc., so on and so forth of each individual.
As a CrossFit coach this is extremely useful information. You can, in a very real sense, see inside somebody and whether or not they have it in them to push past their current abilities to achieve more, be more, and do more work faster.
This is also very potent knowledge when you are the athlete. Check out a local CrossFit Gym and watch the guy loading up the bar in the squat rack with more iron than the Eiffel Tower. I bet you his eyes are narrow, focused, and raging with determination.
The next time you are somewhere short of your goal and the body starts to cry mercy, what will your eyes say?
