864 STRONG – Gunny’s Blog / Monday 09.05.2022 / Labor Day

864 STRONG – Support YOUR Community. Support YOUR Country. Support YOUR 864 Crew. If we don’t  – who will?

He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor.
-1 Corinthians 3:8

Without ambition one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing. The prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

PLEASETHANK YOU, SIR, MA’AM and SORRY  are still magic words. Use them.

What are you most thankful for today?…

Useless statistic for the day:
Traditionally people did not wear white or seersucker clothes after Labor Day as it unofficially marked the end of summer.

Taking on too much of other people’s drama is just a poor excuse for not taking ownership and control over your own life.
-Focus on Your Life.

If you take everything personally, you’ll remain offended for the rest of your life. What other people do is often because of them, not you.

The enemy (Satan) isn’t after your business. He isn’t after your family, neither is he after any physical thing you own. Satan is after your Soul. He knows that you came from your mother’s womb naked, and you will leave the same. Therefore what matters most to him is your soul. When your days on earth are over, and your soul leaves the body, where would your soul be? Would it be in eternity with God, or Satan?

Social Media tip of the day:
Vanity and narcissism (posting pictures of yourself) – the compulsive need to be admired and praised. What message are you sending? 
Have the wisdom to show restraint. -Proverbs 23:4

Let Faith NOT Fear Drive You!

Don’t let other peoples DRAMA drag you down.

#1 Goal Today – Show up.

Today’s gym schedule: Starts at 8:00a.m. / Late Penalty = 10 Burpee Buy-In (Jump In) for every minute that you are late. Done before the workout starts. The group will wait on you to finish.

Reminder – The workout for the day will always be posted on the board when you get to the gym. Random and Constantly Varied. See ya in the gym!

What’s in your gym bag? Extra shoes for the run, sweat towel, wrist wraps, post workout nutrition? Pop Tarts?

864 Strength + Conditioning WOD / The Grind: Labor Day Workout

Have a Great Labor Day! Love God. Serve Others. Be an encouragement to someone today. No Frills – Just Results. 

Please show up on time. Get warmed up and be ready to go! Remember – Our goal at CF864 is to help you get stronger and reach your goals. It should never be considered a place that you can run in and get a quick workout and run back out.

Show up, warm-up…be patient and respect other athletes as they prepare for the workout. Our goal is not to get you in and out in 20 minutes – it’s to get you stronger and to help you stay injury free. Train Hard. Train Heavy. Train Smart.

Be Coachable. Don’t Complain. Don’t Whine.

RX – Form. Full ROM

Don’t look for the easy way…it only makes you weak. Be STRONG!

Please listen up when movement standards/coaching tips are covered before the workout.
The buy-in and cash out are part of the workout. Remember the buy-in is not your warm up.

On this day in history – September 05, 1961 – The U.S. government made airline hijacking a federal offense.
On this day in history – September 05, 1983 – U.S. President Reagan denounced the Soviet Union for shooting down a Korean Air Lines. Reagan demanded that the Soviet Union pay reparations for the act that killed 269 people.

We appreciate you.

BE HAPPY. BE STRONG. NEVER GIVE UP!
