Former Australian batsman and current Aussie head coach Justin Langer is this week's guest on Lessons Learnt with the Greats. I was lucky enough to play a few Tests with JL, one of Australia's toughest, most resilient and focused cricketers ever. In our chat, JL talks on a wide range of topics from mental toughness to meditation, batting techniques to training his body, who has inspired him to his life philosophies. It's an enlightening conversation and I hope you enjoy his amazing insights.Episode notes02:00 - JL starts by telling a terrific story about his breakthrough hundred in the 5th Ashes Test of the 2001 series and how it changed him11:08 - JL takes us through his mental approach14:54 - We touch on mediation and how JL discovered it21:20 - JL's batting mindset33:54 - We explore JL's batting technique and what worked for him36:55 - JL discusses his fitness regime49:22 - JL's mantra when he suffers setbacks52:23 - JL's reflects on his coaching career59:57 - How JL treats the media1:05:22 - JL talks finance and investment1:08:28 - The people who have influenced JLYoutube LinkFootage of JL celebrating after his 2001 Ashes Test Hundred in the 5th Test at the Ovalhttps://youtu.be/fW8iGWtrO1s?t=201 Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
