“Women who claim to be afraid to train hard because they “always bulk up too much” are often already pretty bulky, or “skinny fat” (thin but weak and deconditioned) and have found another excuse to continue life sitting on their butts.”   Mark Rippetoe

Be ready for Sunday’s workout.  We don’t have these women at our gym.  Let’s train hard!

“There is no such thing as “firming and toning.” There is only stronger and weaker.”  Mark Rippetoe

Five times for time:

10 jumping squats

20 squats

10 push ups

20 sit ups

Rest and recover.  Play outside.  Many new experiences await us all.

What we do here is hard work and we all enjoy, eventually,  this brotherhood of suffering.  I have found many inspiring quotes during the past year.  I found this one recently and it spoke to me about the kind of people who show up for our workouts every day.

“It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who
are willing to endure pain with patience.”
- Julius Caesar

And on the lighter side of things from our friend Mark Rippetoe,  author of Starting Strength, and a coach we hope to see in Ouray this year:

I strongly advise against intentionally farting whilst moving heavy weights. Sometimes — especially under those circumstances — farts have a solid center.

Choose your own destiny.
