864 Strength + Conditioning – Constantly Varied. NO Routines. NO Ruts. Don’t be Boring!

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
-2 Timothy 1:7

One who has been touched by grace will no longer look on those who stray as “those evil people” or “those poor people who need our help.” Nor must we search for signs of “loveworthiness.” Grace teaches us that God loves because of who God is, not because of who we are.
-Phillips Brooks

If YOU don’t support your community – who will? Folks from somewhere else?

Social Media tip of the day:  It takes discipline not to let social media steal your time and joy. Do you often find yourself mindlessly scrolling through social media? One of the biggest time-wasters is our phone, most specifically social media. Social media addiction affects our productivity and mindless scrolling is not healthy or a productive use of our time. How much time do you waste each day scrolling?
You can’t fix stupid…but you can watch it in action on Facebook every day!
Privacy is dead, and social media holds the smoking gun. / Have the wisdom to show restraint. –Proverbs 23:4

DIG DEEP! Results or Excuses. Pick one. You can’t have both.

You either live a self directed life or a God directed life. Your choice. There is no in between.

Question of the day:  If steroids are illegal for athletes, shouldn’t Photoshop be illegal for models?

Post Training / Cash Out – Stretch, work on your ROM (range of motion) and hydrate! Don’t finish your workout and be in the car within 30 seconds and gone. Spend a little time during this post workout period working on these important elements. This will help reduce soreness, risk of injury and will allow you to achieve greater range of motion through every exercise. 864 is about community and it’s hard to be part of the community if you rush in and rush out. That’s what you do in classes at a Globo Gym.

FORM. FORM. FORM. Sloppy reps don’t count. Listen up. Listen up. Listen up for the movement standards before the workout starts. Don’t be the one that is clueless when the workout starts.

Train Hard. Train Heavy. Train Smart. Have Fun.

The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.
-Ernest Hemingway

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 STRONG and BE COURAGEOUS!
