CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
There are obstacles/issues in life that you may not be able to face alone.  In my circumstance, I had a major weight issue.  I am not nor have I ever been a small guy.  However, about 9 years ago I got up to 335 lbs.  Being 6’ tall, I was severely overweight and at 25 headed down a bad path.  With the support of my wife, I was able to lose 100 lbs over about 2 years.  She kept me motivated to work out, meal planned and meal prepped for me.  Without her, I would never been able to get where I am today.  We all faces issues/demons in our lives.  Don’t be afraid to ask for help whether it is from your spouse, family, friends or your F3 brothers.

“Obsessed is what the lazy call the dedicated.”
Have someone think you are obsessed with getting better. Not just at workouts, but at everything. Work, being a better father, son, brother, person. Be obsessed with helping others and serving God.
