Visiting my Italian friends

Here’s a short clip from my last visit at the beginning of March (4 days before the Italian national championship). The level of professionalism from these young guys never ceases to amaze me so. As you can hear in the background, apart from weights hitting the floor, the only other noise comes from coaches’ instructions. No chatting, no fuss, no dramas, no wild celebrations. They are there to do a job and given the little resources they have, I reckon they are doing a pretty goddamned good one! Besides making me feel old whenever I pop in to train 🙂

Thank you guys for always welcoming me and making space for me. You play a great part in making my stay in Italy a pleasure. Hope to see you again in a couple of months- keep up the excellent work.
