Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are. 
1 Peter 5:8-9

Well, best to remain vigilant. It’s when everything is calm that you need to be most alert.

Definition of Challenge: Demanding, testing one’s determination, willpower, abilities, skills and resources. A call to fight, as a battle.

Entitlement is a delusion built on self-centeredness and laziness. Nobody ever said that life was fair. Deal with it! Don’t compare your life to other peoples life. Live your own. Keep Calm and Mind Your Own Business…

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.”
-Plato

On this day in history – November 15, 2017 – Leonardo da Vinci’s painting “Salvator Mundi” sold for $450.3 million at auction. The sell set a record for the most expensive painting sold at a public auction.

Strength / Week 2 – You will have 15 minute to find your 3RM Back Squat – work up to a heavy three rep set. Remember to log your strength numbers.
Warm up – start adding weight on the bar until you hit that strong set. Push each other today. Our priority today = Get Stronger. Is it a PR day?
Form – A Squat above parallel is NOT a Squat!

BE STRONG. BE LEGIT. BE PREPARED.
