Description

In this episode, Niraj welcomes Latvian Olympian Pauls Pujats. Since Pauls is the first pole vaulter on the podcast, Niraj tries to understand the sport first-hand from Pauls - the basics of the sport and what constitutes an ideal pole vaulter - physically as well as mentally. Pauls also reflects on how he fulfilled his dream of getting to the Olympics when he competed at the Rio Olympics and how he has been using alternative techniques like yoga, meditation and martial arts to give him an extra edge over the competition.
