PROGRESS - Every day you are making progress in life.

Progress.

Progress is not the hare, hell, it isn't even the turtle. It often feels as slow as a snail's pace.

Progress comes as a fight for every pound added, every skill gained and every second shaved off.

It comes so slowly it is almost imperceptible. It feels almost like you are stuck - confined to your limits for eternity.

But every rep you do, every skill set you work on and every lift you perform strengthens you.

Every ring row you do gets you closer to that elusive band. Every banded pullup you do gets you closer to that mythical unassisted PU.

Every. Single. One.

Every time you pick up the bar you are stronger for it, when you push through and sprint, you are faster for it.

Every. Single. Time.

Maybe you can't see it all adding up yet - but it is. It is working, and everything you are doing is worth it. Because you are stronger each day you WOD. 


Be sure you are logging everything - even if it is banded or you don't think the rep "counts", it does it all does.

 You are stronger every single day.

“Progress, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great results cannot be achieved at once; and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk, step by step.” - Samuel Smiles
