“It's your road, and yours alone. Others may walk it with you, But no one can walk it for you.”― Rumi

With gyms closing their doors, we find ourselves in our living rooms, trying to find motivation to do endless air squats and burpees, while simultaneously having our pets/kids climb all over us.

It isn't ideal, but it's the situation we find ourselves in for the foreseeable future. So what are you going to do to make sure you stay on course with your health and fitness goals?

Don't use this as a time to make excuses.

"I don't have a barbell or weights so I'm just going to get weak"

"I don't own a rower or bike so my cardio is going to suffer"

Use this as a time to recalibrate your goals and mindset for the next few weeks and months.

How would your mindset change if the current situation was permanent?

Check out the episode for some words of wisdom and tips from the coaches.

"Train for the unknown and the unknowable"

Times may be scary at the moment. But guess what? You have been training for this all along.

You come in everyday, willingly put yourself through adversity, and come out stronger because of it.

The same applies to the current situation we find ourselves in with the coronavirus scare.

While your daily life may have been thrown through the ringer recently, but try to find the silver lining in the situation.

Have you been saying you need to work more on mobility for the last year? Dedicate 10 minutes a day to stretching.

Always wish you had more time to read? Now seems like as good a time as any!

There are many factors outside of our control at the moment. But there are also many things we can controlu, one being your health and fitness during these uncertain times.

Let our coaches know how we can help.

How do you deal with change?

Change is an unavoidable constant in our lives. Sometimes it’s within our control, but most often it’s not. Things change — and not always for the better.

Fortunately, there are ways to adapt to change, and even to take advantage of it.

Tyler and Eric dive into some methods to adapt-and even thrive-when dealing with changes.

What is your why?

What are you pursuing in life?

Why are you pursuing it?

What are you willing to sacrifice for it?

The coaches share their thoughts on this topic and share some things they sacrificed in the past to get where they are now.

The coaches lay out 3 habits they do daily, to improve their lives. Also, they lay out 1 habit they would like to include in their lives, and 1 bad habit they would like to remove.
