“Don’t tell me who you are. Tell me what you are.”
When we are asked “who” we are, we default to our past. We define ourselves by our resumes. Although our past may give us insight of where we’ve been, it cannot be what defines us… for it’s the past.
When the question however asks “what” we are, we tend to give a different answer. We describe who we *really* are. It’s one of character, values and beliefs.
Will we be defined by who we’ve been in the past, or by what we stand for today? Let character be our loudest statement.

Strategy
– This workout is all about managing grip fatigue early on.
– Break early on if our toes to bar tend to break down due to grip fatigue. Aim for quick, sustainable sets.
– Swift, fast, steps will allow us to make quick work of the farmers carries. The longer the dumbbellls are in hand, the more fatigued our grip will get.
– The pace of the bike will come down to how much time you need to gear up for the next round of toes to bar and farmers carries. This is the only place we can relax the forearms so be mindful of how tighly we are gripping the handles of the bike.
