REMINDER!
A few of us have committed to sharing our “WHY” on the whiteboard… get on board, put it out there, see it every day you walk in the gym, stay on your path!!!
We’d love to see your “WHYS” written on the board!
Maybe it’s “I want to be able to play with my kids for the next 10 years!”, or “I want to complete a marathon this year!”, or “I want to feel comfortable defending my family in a bad situation.”… Whatever your “WHY”… Share it with us and the tribe! Accountability is a GREAT THING!
Current stuff:
Joey Walker re-broke and set 4 State records and took 3rd overall powerlifting this weekend at Nationals! Congrats Joey!!!
