“Most of the time we feel tired not because we’ve done too much, but because we’ve done too little of what makes us come alive.” – Jim Kwik
We’re not going to pretend the hard times go away. And that we won’t need to do things that we’d rather not. We have commitments, obligations, and bills to pay. But when we find ourselves in a daily loop of non-stop “work”… we won’t feel like ourselves.
But it’s not the time we put in at work that causes this. It’s the time we don’t put in on the other things. Our passions. The reason why we get out of bed in the morning. Yet in the furious pace of our lives, we let it fall to the wayside because we need to get “back to work.”
The times where we are the most unhappy, are the times where we are the most untrue to ourselves. Redefine to ourselves what sets us on fire. What makes us come alive. And literally schedule it on your calendar as if it’s a life-saving doctor’s appointment. Because in truth… it is.

BB-MRx: 95/55, Rx: 115/75, Rx+: 135/95
Time Cap: 18 Minutes
– Overview: In this grippy 3 round triplet, athletes will be be challenged by bigger sets on the barbell and the jump rope. Let’s see who can go unbroken on the cleans and double unders in the last round!
– Row: Less than 2:10 to complete each round.
– Power Cleans: Loading should not exceed 65% of your 1RM power clean. The 30 cleans should take less than 2:30 to complete.
– Double Unders: Less than 1:30 to complete each round.
– Score: Total Time. If capped, add 1s for every incomplete rep.
– Let’s make our first focus today on the barbell. Singles, small touch and go sets, big touch and go sets, or a mix of all the above works great. Let’s keep our breaks short and really try to push the pace here.
– Our next focus will be on the double unders. Let’s pay attention to our grip and shoulders. We need to stay as relaxed as possible so that we can save energy for the barbell. 1-4 sets works great here. If you break, make sure it’s only a quick shake out.
– The movement that matters the least is the rower. Let’s settle into a steady and sustainable pace here.

“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.

“Don’t look for the third thing.” – Marcus Aurelius
Marcus Aurelius breaks down a good deed into two positive results:
1. You did good, and,
2. You helped another.
The first positive result is that *you* did good. Every good deed is a vote towards ourselves becoming better human beings. The second is that your actions helped *another*. Whether big or small, you’ve benefited another human being today.
There is a “third thing” that one can seek, and it was Marcus strongly speaks against: credit.
When one contributes with a good deed, doing right by oneself, and doing right by another, is enough. The desire to receive praise for such an action is the pitfall he warns against. To go around expecting thanks is what he deems as greedy, which can trickle into other areas of life.

Build To A Heavy Set of 3
)
– Barbell should be taken from a rack.

Barbell: MRx: 75/45, Rx: 95/65, Rx+: 115/85
Box: (24”/20”)
Time Cap: 18 Minutes
– Overview: Looking at a longer grind today where pacing will be key. This is a repeat from 8.24.21 with slight modifications to weights and the type of bike we will use.
– Push Press: Less than 15s to complete each round. Loading should not exceed 65% of your 1RM push press.
– Front Squat: Less than 15s to complete each round.
– Box Jumps: Less than 15s to complete each round. Rebounding will not be permitted for long term achilles and ankle health. Athletes should stand tall on the box every rep.
– Bike: Less than 2:30 to complete.
– Score: Total Time. Add 1 second for every missed rep if time capped.
– If your lungs tend to get you during workouts, let’s plan to break between the push presses and front squats each round. Complete a quick 3 push presses, drop the bar, then get right back to it and complete a squat clean to get the front squats started. Quick sets, quick breaks. If your lungs are not a concern, let’s try to hold on and go right from the 3rd push press right into the front squats.
– While we want to use the bike as somewhat of a recovery, we can easily lose a lot of time at this station if we bike too slowly. Aim to complete this station in under 2:30.
– There are 3 batches of rounds of push presses, front squats, and box jumps. The number of rounds decrease with each batch. We should aim to ramp up our speed as we go so that our last 3 rounds are completed at a higher intensity than our first 7 rounds.

“You make a living with what you get. You make a life with what you give.” – Winston Churchill
Think back to a time in your life when you came in clutch for someone. One where your actions made a significant impact on someone’s life. Maybe it was a time where you showed up for a friend in a time of need. But you didn’t just show up… you went above and beyond. Not because of some expected return, but because you believed it was the right thing to do. You genuinely cared.
Think back to that day, and how that made you feel when you saw your impact. Think back to how it felt to know you made a difference. It felt good, didn’t it. Really, damn, good.
Science has shown us that one of the most powerful emotions we can feel, via serotonin, is released in mass at these moments. But what is even more interesting, is that it’s literally contagious. Think back to the last time you saw *someone else* doing something generous. Maybe it was as simple as holding the door open at the store for an elderly customer. Think back to that… How did you feel, witnessing that? Did it make you feel more generous?
If generosity is contagious, it just needs to be started.
Let it be us.
Be the change we want to see in this world.

“Give more. Give what you didn’t get. Love more. Drop the old story.”
We often hold onto the past. And we all have felt ourselves do it. Sometimes they are worn as scars, sometimes like trophies. It’s not uncommon to use past events as a chip on your shoulder. “They didn’t believe in me”. All of those are potent motivators. But they only last so long, as they are fleeting and weaker forms of ammunition.
When we “fight against” something, such as something in the past, we will only go so far. When we “fight for” something, it’s different. Its purpose and meaning go beyond our singular life, transcending to something far bigger. This is where you can move mountains.
Do you hold onto something from the past? Can we reframe the mental dialogue?

30 Wallballs MRx: 14/10, Rx: 20/14
Max Calorie Row
Rest 1 Minute Between Rounds.
– Overview: Athletes will begin each AMRAP with 30 wallballs. From there, athletes will move to the rower and accumulate as many calories as possible in the time remaining. Can you row the same number of calories (or more) each round?
– Wallballs: Less than 2:00 to complete.
– Row: Athletes should have at least 1:00 to row each AMRAP.
– Score: Enter the number of calories you complete each AMRAP. Overall score will be the sum total.
– With only 1 minute of rest between rounds we need to be smart about our break up strategy on the ball. 1-3 quick sets works great if your breaks are less than 10s. 4-6 quick sets works great if your breaks are less than 5s.
– After the first round, we’ll have a feel for the number of calories we’ll be shooting for in rounds 2-5. Aim to stay within 5 calories of that initial score each round.
– Transition quickly to the rower to not waste any time!
