EMOM means every minute on the minute. At the start of the every minute, pax must perform push ups, nose to knees and squats. After completing the required number of reps they get to rest for the rest of the minute.

Failure to complete a round inside the time limit means that the pax will finish the repetitions for that round, then do 2 boo-pees, then rest for the rest of the minute and then join back in the following round.

First 5 minutes: 5 Boo-urpees, 5 Jack the Ripper Crunches, 5 Zombie squats

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

To understand what discipline really is and what it really means, let’s look at the origin of the word to find its intent and true form.

The root word of discipline is “disciple,” which comes from the Latin word discipulus meaning “student.” Most people believe a disciple is a follower (probably because of the religious context), but in reality it means student—as in, “one who studies.”

The word “discipline” is from the Latin word disciplina, meaning “instruction and training.” It is derived from the root word discere—”to learn.”

So what is discipline?

Discipline is to study, learn, train, and apply a system of standards.

When we lose our personal discipline, also our choice, we give control away to other people, external circumstances, and the inevitable randomness of life. We drift and become the plaything of circumstances (Viktor Frankl—”Man’s Search for Meaning”).

More discipline, more choice, more control. Better options. Higher standards. Improved skill. More flexibility.

Less discipline, less choice, less control. Fewer options. Lower standards. Inadequate skill. Less flexibility.

What Does Discipline Mean?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Recently listened to “Atomic Habits” audio book and am working on implementing some of his techniques into my life.  The book is set up to act as a manual and less of a motivational/inspirational book, which I found very practical and probably more helpful that a book just trying to inspire me to make changes.  I encourage you to read/listen!  Here are a few quotes:

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.”

“never miss twice. If I miss one day, I try to get back into it as quickly as possible.”

“If successful and unsuccessful people share the same goals, then the goal cannot be what differentiates the winners from the losers.”

“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.”

“If you show up at the gym five days in a row—even if it’s just for two minutes—you are casting votes for your new identity. You’re not worried about getting in shape. You’re focused on becoming the type of person who doesn’t miss workouts. You’re taking the smallest action that confirms the type of person you want to be.”

~ James Clear (Author of Atomic Habits)

“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:13-16‬

We are called to be salt and light to the world. Don’t hide your light or lose your saltiness but instead stand firm in your belief
