When we get these two together at the gym only good things can happen. Walt C. and Darren H. are always pushing each other, who is your favorite bunny to chase or athlete that brings you up at the gym?

Listen up young grasshoppers…

Focus – When it’s time to train, the cell phone goes off. There’s no talking about the boozing that went on at the bars the weekend before, or complaining about problems with the new girlfriend. When these successful trainees are in the gym, they are there for one reason: to lift heavy stuff and get better. (FOCUS!)

Training Partners/Environment – Successful individuals realize that they’ll never be as well off alone as they will be with the help of the individuals around them, so they surround themselves with the right people. The end result is constant, detailed feedback; handoffs and spots whenever they’re needed; accountability to ensure the aforementioned consistency; and camaraderie that improves results exponentially.

The next time you get injured and want to push through it, ask yourself:

What am I gaining from training while injured?
What could I be gaining from letting myself recover?
What am I afraid of losing by not training or competing?
Will this competition make the difference in my learning or progression?
Will I return to training sooner if I take a break now?
Will I be creating a chronic issue if I don’t heal properly?

ATTN: This Saturday, Dr. Pena of Airrosti Rehab Centers will be at P3 CrossFit to provide complimentary injury assessments and help you develop treatment options to get you back to 100%. Plan to come a little bit early to class or stay a few minutes afterwards to get checked out!

Do you just show up to class to get your burn on? Do you show up hoping to simply survive? Or do come ready to fight and attack the class and get everything you can from it?

Change your approach to how you address your everyday chores and you will find yourself more engaged, happy and feeling accomplished at the end of the day… For example, when you sit down to your computer to answer emails, is it a time sucking drain on your life or are you on a f’ing mission to attack the onslaught of emails lingering in your inbox? Like you are an email destroying machine sent here from the future to help you finish all your work in time to make it to the gym on time. Consider all your options, approach every situation as an opportunity to make a choice.
