ANNOUNCEMENTS: Hot Toddy Triple Q next week

COT:

Brad Stulbeg:
Consistency is more important than intensity. If you win at consistency, you have a good chance of winning at everything else. Consistency means:

– Showing up on good days and bad days.
– Zooming out and playing the long game.
– Focusing on the process over outcomes.

James Clear:
If you want to maintain your sanity, reduce stress, and increase your odds of long-term success, then you need to plan for failure as well as focus on consistency. Research from Stanford professor Kelly McGonigal has shown that the number one reason why willpower fades and people fail to remain consistent with their habits and goals is that they don’t have plan for failure.

Planning to fail doesn’t mean that you expect to fail, but rather than you know what you will do and how you will get back on track when things don’t work out. If you’re focused on being perfect, then you’re caught in an all-or-nothing trap.
Meanwhile, if you realize that individual failures have little impact on your long-term success, then you can more easily rebound from failures and setbacks. Being consistent is not the same as being perfect.

Stronger – Higher – Faster – Together

Steve Prefontaine was an Olympic runner from Oregon in the 70s and also the namesake of my dog.

He was a flat out runner that didn’t buy into strategy, or %, he was a flat out runner.

My fav quote from Pre, that I couldn’t remember is, “To give anything less than your best, is to sacrifice the gift”.

Hit me in the car.

Hope all of you men work to get Stronger – Higher – Faster – Together.

Good to be back

FNGs: None
COUNT: 9
WARMUP: one squat

THE THANG:

Four different stations after you partner up.
First patient one partner does an exercise while the other partner runs to the next station and runs back and switches with the other partner.
Do this three times and then go to the second station and run from the second station to the third station and so on and so forth

This is a classic ribbed workout, not much needs to be said. Except for the fact that because I did not have any instructions, it was like a bunch of wild horses, figuring out what to do and people were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

MARY: stretching with ribbed

ANNOUNCEMENTS: don’t @channel the channel

Triple Q Fail, triple confessions:

1) I would like to say I was following in the footsteps of my predecessor Crawdad (Robbi Dickens) and I took the week to meditate on last week’s Q before posting the backblast. But the truth is I went home after the workout and immediately started working on the yard, which I do not care about. Spent all day on it and was too tired to post this.

2) I like to get a little chatter going when I’m Qing, you know? But we went up everest and were generally on the move so much that I was out of breath and couldn’t say a whole lot. And we didn’t even get to the Jack Webb I had planned 🙁

3) I forgot our FNG’s name. Little Roll? Double Wide his potential brother in law will have to remember if/when Jason Sutton comes back.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Proton! Great October surprise

COT: High Heels (Henry Ritchie) requested prayer for his write-in campaign to become Weasel Shaker
