SHEER STRENGTH!

Pic 1~ Jamey kicking butt on his last set of push presses.

Pic 2~ This is the set before Jamey killed his push press. This is the moment when Jamey ponders over what his trainer means by a push press rather than a push jerk. Hmmmmmm........ Can you feel the love? :O) Muah, Jamey, love ya!

STRENGTH! Building strength is a definite necessity to improve our overall health and fitness. As we will build strength, we inevitably become better athletes! We are stronger, faster, and can endure for longer periods of time because we have the sheer strength to achieve and succeed. Although days like this may seem slow and yes, it may feel "weird to leave without being all sweaty" (quoting our Diane today). However, it will only help us in our next workout. We will get closer and closer to doing the WODS at the prescribed weight and / or even beating our old times. So, it is important to not forget the strength days and to really give it our all and max out at our potential. Just like everyone did today. Way to go y'all!
