Happy New Year! How did you finish up 2018? Did you get through the Challenge? 60 minutes in the Plank position, high or low before you ring in 2019. As always, I seem to have left it until the last possible moment, but with some encouragement from @SavannahJessie I managed to log some serious minutes in the final week. So...

Challenge Time
So much like Christmas shopping, when it comes to Challenges, I’m a last minute Guy. How many Squats can a person do in a week? Well, plus or minus 1,700 before things really start to hurt. How did your Challenge go? Did you have trouble coming out of the gate? Did you just hammer away 100 of day? Well...
When You Have Nothing Left
I’m OK, thumbs up… Wednesday (August 19) – Here’s a question for you as you read this. How do you push yourself to keep going when you really don’t want to?

Heck yeah I’m...

Not of success or failure, but of getting hurt. Let me be clearer, I was afraid of doing more damage to my shoulder. Since last summer when it failed doing...
Yeah, I Can Fly
Ok, I really can’t fly. Yet. We well get back to this in a few minutes though. What’s with a post on a Friday? Interesting isn’t it? Well the goal for January was 31 days of pain. Fail. With the excessive festivities on New Years and 2 WODs in 36 hours with no sleep, it was in everyone’s best interest...
That Will Learn Me
I’m almost in the picture… OK. I finally, completely and utterly understand Paleo. Tuesday marked a special day for me, Mom and Dad were visiting for lunch, I had the day off and dinner plans with @c_snapper, @gosiakaz and JNats. It was a great day, but sadly (but not at the time) it was soooooo not paleo. Wine (White and...
