Rep Your Story: True Stories of Failures and Successes Told By Elite Athletes

A Collection of moments that helped define the careers of some of the World's Best Athletes: Jay Hernandez has been training and coaching athletes for over two decades. He has seen what the barriers can be for players of all ages, backgrounds, and circumstances; and has narrowed down his coaching to a very specific formula: Don't be afraid to make mistakes. If you aren't challenged, then you will be bored and won't improve. Getting better is forever, it's not a quick fix. Go apply what you learned and then do it all over again. This led to him coming up with phrases, affirmations, and telling stories to cue the athletes, to make them believe, to continue to fight through obstacles, and to know that the athletes they looked up to have dealt with the same types of challenges. Jay has experiences as an athlete, trainer, and coach that allow him to have engaging conversations with athletes and provide a platform to share some of their most impactful career moments. Jay created Rep Your Story to include a wide scope of athletes from major team sports to solo sports, all striving to be at their best when it mattered most.
