O LORD, I will honor and praise your name, for you are my God. You do such wonderful things! You planned them long ago, and now you have accomplished them.

Leave the broken, irreversible past in God’s hands, and step out into the invincible future with Him.

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

Rules for the 2,000 864 Sit-up Challenge:
Sign up on whiteboard at gym. Partner up and hold each other accountable. Motivate each other.
a.) Complete 2,000 sit-ups during the month of March.
b.)  All sit-ups count – during WODs count. Before or after WODs and at home.
c.) Do them anywhere – wherever you can / gym, church, school, coffee shop, pizza buffet, grocery store, you get the idea…
d.) Post total reps on the whiteboard each day and log reps in your personal training journal.

Invest in a jump rope if you don’t own your own rope. Whether you are doing double unders or still doing singles (and working on getting double unders) You need a rope that is sized for you.
Don’t rely on grabbing someone else’s rope that was left at the gym. You need a rope in your gym bag.

Fresh fire roasted Silva coffee beans (local roaster) great coffee! Local Honey is back in stock. Grab a jar while it last.
