“One of the most difficult things to give away is kindness. It usually comes back to you.” – Anonymous

Science has proven that showing kindness to another elicits one of the most powerful hormonally driven emotions we can feel. But what is even more interesting, is that kindness is contagious.

Think back to the last time you saw *someone else* doing something generous. Maybe it was as simple of a gesture as someone holding the door open for an elderly citizen entering a store. Or when another randomly buys the next person in line behind them their coffee at the drive-through Starbucks. Think back to those moments… how did you feel, witnessing that? Did it make you feel, more generous?

If kindness is contagious, we just need to start the chain.

THE BIG TAKEAWAYS

1. Let’s aim to work on cycling moderate loads today. 1-2 sets will be good challenge for us on both the power snatches and the squat snatches.

2. Burpee at a pace that will allow you to hold on for bigger sets on the barbell.

3. This is a great workout to test our barbell cycling capacity.
