Taekwondo star Adelaide Barnes admits she was first pushed towards martial arts to help improve her concentration.
“They were like, ‘Oh, put her into martial arts to help her focus,’” she said.
“But the lows are getting tired, mentally, and physically being in the game of saying ‘I want this, this is what I want to do every day for the rest of my life’.” “I started late so I don't have a lot of ranking points,” she said. “At the minute I’m just trying my hardest to make sure that I get into the Grand Prix and be a top 60 athlete, so I'm up there getting ranking points.
