        ….maybe that Karma’s way of paying you back for the push ups yesterday???

        LOL according to Vince, I should do part of his burpees, since it’s my job to wake ‘us’ up!!! Maybe you’re right Heidi.. Karma is a B$#%*

    LOVE the video. BRILLIANT!

    I don’t do fitness…I do movement

    If you cannot move your body and control it….then what business do you have moving other objects outside yourself

    I make time to motivate myself…appointments with myself to motivate and inspire myself..I don’t wait for it to come.

    Just Move.

    That video is amazing!!! What struck me “Move, because you can. If you won’t, you probably won’t be able to. Use it or you ganna lose it and it’s going to be a bad day when you lose it.”

    Two things he said I really loved:
    1 – “Why do you train”
    2 – “Make time to train”

    QOD: Even though a little part of me was thinking “wow, this guy does NOT have kids…”, hours a day to motivate himself, training 6 hours a day…
    Still, I found the simplicity in his message and his focus inspiring. I liked that he would state that no sport/discipline is perfect but also allude to many of the positives each one brings.

    My favs were:
    “Why do you train?”
    and
    “Use it, or you’re gonna to lose it, and it’s going to be a bad day…move”

  10. February 22, 2013 at 10:35 am #

    “Use it, or you’re gonna lose it”. For me, that says it all. Great video.

  11. February 22, 2013 at 10:45 am #

    QOD: I think he answered why crossfit is so addictive. It not so much the need/want to stay fit but “People want to move.”, “we always want to move.” Explains why I’m a little excited to see what the movements are for the day and a little disappointed when I miss a workout, like today’s.

    So when are you inviting this guy for a seminar Kevin??

    Gassed. This 4 months off thing really sapped my lungs. Everything felt good. It was my first time doing OHS in like half a year, so I was happy that 85 felt so effortless. Just struggled to get enough air.

    Great work 4:15 crew!
    Have a great snow free weekend ya’ll! … get ready for more of that white stuff next week though.

    I didn’t comment on all of them, but WOW….. some really fast times on this work out today.

    WOD: Rx’d – Time = 6:34
    PR from last time, thanks to DU’s improving since last year.

    OHS all unbroken, but PJ’s were tough. Really liked this one.
