“You want to be an owner? Then be an Owner!” This applies to everything we do in life. No one is to blame for your faults and failures. It’s no one’s fault that you didn’t hit a new PR. The fault lies within you. The sooner you take ownership of your life, your struggles, and your efforts the sooner you will live a happier life.

In this episode we discuss why it’s not always the best idea to follow any program on the internet to get the results you are looking for. The person who wrote the program doesn’t know you and therefore can’t program to truly see what you need. Several hours of volume were never designed to be stuffed into a 1 hour time window. If you have extra time practice movements to make them more efficient rather than stuffing hours and hours of volume into a short window.

There are many changes in the sport of CrossFit and as a community we just had our first glimpse of what is in store. Personally i think this was the best programmed open to date and I’ll explain why.

Believe it or not there is a difference between the 3. In order for you to know what you should be doing, you must first know what your goals are. First identify your goals and then decide weather to practice, train, or work out.

As we go about our daily lives, we use the word “need” quite a bit. Many times, these aren’t things we need but rather things we want. By controlling our desires and understanding the difference between need and want we not only are going to be better in the gym but outside of it.

Abolsurely not! In fact I believe the changes coming are great for the sport. We just have to be patient and allow the mechanism that turned an obscure fitness program into a word wide phenomenon to do the same for the sport that we love.

Grit is an over used term in our society. People like to think they have grit but very few true lay possess it and even those that do have it can lose it. How can you learn to be grittier? How can you use the gym setting to teach you grit? Do great things for your country and enjoy

We live in a world where the term “obsessed’ is viewed negatively. Obsession is a good thing if used for the right reasons. Passion is something that is often missing in our mediocre society. If someone is lazy we laugh and joke about it but if someone is passionate and obsessed with someone we speak negative lyrics about that person. Find your passion and obsess over it!

Everyone wants to be successful but how is “success” defined? Don’t only look at the long term goal but have multiple small term and daily goals in your mind to make everyday successful. Use your workout as a way to set you on a path for daily success!

We all go through struggles in life. No one is immune from it. Showing pain however will never get you anywhere. Knowing the difference between sympathy and empathy will help you live a happier and mentally healthier life. #dogreatthingsforyourcountry
