864 STRONG – Gunny’s Blog / Wednesday 05.25.2022

864 STRONG – YOU MATTER.

Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.
-Romans 12:10

Self-importance requires spending most of one’s life offended by something or someone.

“In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.”
-Ronald Reagan, First Inaugural Address, Jan. 20, 1981

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

If YOU don’t support your community – who will? will you?

Nutrition Tip: Today I ate a donut without sprinkles – diets are hard!

SMILE!
Smile and wave boys. Just smile and wave. What else can you do? Are you giving MORE than you take today?

Today’s schedule: 5:15a.m./8:00a.m.

#1 Goal today – Don’t settle for less than you are capable of.

864 Strength + Conditioning – The Daily 864 Grind: HUMP DAY

The strongest (mentally and physically) are the ones that just show up each day prepared to do hard work even if they don’t know what the workout consist of. STRONG or SOFT? Your choice. Hit it hard or move over! Be STRONG!

Before you start today’s training – Goat Work/Skill Work. Mobility/Warm-up/Remember – the Buy-In is not your warm up.
Can’t or Won’t? What’s holding you back?

Social Media tip of the day: My parents should be proud of me because I’m addicted to Facebook…and not crack.
How much time have you wasted so far today on Facebook?
Ask yourself – why did I just post that? Take a look around. Take a close look at the post you see today. Social media has infected the world with a sickening virus called vanity. Look at me. Please look at me! Have the wisdom to show restraint. –Proverbs 23:4

On this day in history – May 25, 1999 – A report by the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on U.S. National Security and Military/Commercial Concerns with the People’s Republic of China concluded that China had “stolen design information on the U.S. most-advanced thermonuclear weapons” and that China’s penetration of U.S. weapons laboratories “spans at least the past several decades and almost certainly continues today.”

RX = Form / Full ROM = Legit. Move fast and get reps. Show up and grind!

RX Movement Standards –  There is no almost RX. It’s 100% RX’d or Scaled. Scale based on your strength/motivation level. Movement standards will always be covered before the training starts. If you are not sure about a particular movement/exercise please be patient until we cover it as a group.

You guys are awesome! See you in the gym….

BE STRONG.
