"Jimmy legs"

Joe, we feel your pain! Even Brett was a crazy lunatic with last Friday's wod. His quote during the wod, "When I vomit, I am done."

Yes, yes everyone's legs are burning from Friday's workout. A lot of robotic movements, holding of the handrail as you descend the stairway, cringes, ohhs--ahhhs. But this is a GOOD hurt. It means that we are building strong bodies and strong minds (just think of the mental fortitude to push through that workout).

We have to remember, that we all have particular movements that make us cringe when we see them. For Brett, it's thrusters.....me it's rowing/running..... Mike, burpees....etc. The list goes on. But we need to embrace the suck that comes with it, because when we work on our weaknesses, we develop a more well rounded and advanced fitness level. Isn't that what we are all striving to achieve?

For those of you that your life depends on this (ie: police, fire, military) it IS harder to kill strong, fit people. In this day and age, the same applies for everyone else. Even if it is so that we are quick on our feet so that we can hop on the curb as a crazy driver approaches, or to quickly sit up and lunge to catch your falling child. Either way, embrace the suck, because it will only make you stronger! Tough times don't last, but tough people do! You are ALL tough!
