Prayer- Cpt D prayed us out

Moleskin- Thank you for allowing me to lead you this morning. I hope everyone got something out of it.

Todays workout was full of Repetition. It was not due to lack of creativity but was for the purpose of Self-Discipline.

When we are out here it is You vs You. When doing hard things it is very easy to allow our Minds to tell us to quit, slow down, walk, take it easy, modify when not needed, etc.

The Body is telling the Mind I feel pain from this Plank. The Mind then tells the Heart- You are causing us pain – Stop! Through the Repetition of Hard things and pushing yourself, you teach the Mind and Body to adapt and grow. In turn you get stronger. It takes Self- Discipline to continue to push through. 

The better You are the better the Team is. 

 

Challenge-

I have 3 Challenges for US today. I know its Repetitive.

1. I Challenge each of Us to reach out to someone you have not seen at a workout in a while. You never know what someone may be fighting.

        2. Challenge US to begin/continue to see ourselves as a Part of a Whole. #Better Together 

        3. If you have not had your VQ yet. Sign up for it. Reach out if you need an open date. 

 

I appreciate each and everyone one of you. I’m thankful for each of you and this blessing called F3

Have a good week Gentlemen.
