#63: Willie Banks-world record holder, Olympian, Triple Jump KING

His athletic accolades precede him, as Willie Banks has set American Records, World Records, and many other superb performances. Today we talk about a few coaches who helped him along the way, as well as the difference between conscious thinking and subconscious thinking as it relates to athletic performance (and law school!). Willie also gives us a detailed account of the world record in 1985 that you won't want to miss. Near the end we find out the REAL truth on the rhythmic clap. Did Willie invent it? Did it make a difference in his career? Find out this and more (including an OJ Simpson story!) in today's episode!
