Give me everything you’ve got
Here’s why I don’t think we give everything we’ve got to what we really want: We’re too busy giving a little, to everything else.
If you were to truly give your next WOD everything you had in you to give, honestly, you would kill it. Same goes for your marriage, or your job, or your religion.
And it wasn’t until yesterday, when I demanded that she give me everything she had, did I come to realize how simple, and how difficult that really was. Almost impossible for some, like breathing for others.
It was when she was walking around her Kettlebell like a dog circles the floor before laying down. She was contemplating doing work, when she could have just been busy working.
Getting the most out of each day has nothing to do with what your willing to take on, and everything to do with what your willing to give up. That bell swings so much easier when your not weighted down with the baggage of the petty.
“I just don’t know how to get to that place,” she said after time ran out.
Is that really what it is?, I thought. Or, do we know the path better than anyone, there’s just too many things blocking its way.
We only have so much to give, thankfully, there is only so much worth giving to.

sweet wod im stoked!
Are Fran repeats a valid excuse for calling in a sub? O.M.G.
Ha! Yes they are!!
Might be a good day for busy work
Love the short and sweet post. You identified your point very nicely. Won’t be in today, but your right Josh! Looks like a horrible, long, Fran-like WOD
No doubt, Min!
I sure hope its a valid excuse for being late to work.
Heads up everyone…it is even worse than it looks.
WOD…HORRIBLE!!!
Front squat…175# PR!!!!
After watching the 5am and 7am do this WOD, I knew there’s nothing good I can say except to those who come in and do it! Yes it is one of those…I have nothing left, nothing to say kind of WOD’s. 5am, you guys were amazing. Mindy and Mitchell so far the only ones to complete at least two rounds. Mitchell completed 3!
PR’s this morning on Front Squats are as follows…
Mitchell, Matt Kauflin, Tyrone, Krissy, Debbie, Kim, Sandy, and Jody!!! Great Job guys
Wish I completed two… Only one. Just missed the second and it didn’t get much better from there, Good luck everyone. Go at this one head first and just keep moving.
165 PR FS/ reps? nasty wod Josh!
9am was great. I very much appreciate the effort…
Yeah I went in head first on first round got to the 9′s and after that it went down hill! Only lasted 3rds on this bad boy. I’m kinda glad I had my back to blame;) joking, kinda!
