Mind over matter



Our body is capable of so much more than our mind usually allows it to be. I know this because when I'm doing the warm up I sometimes have difficulty completing 15 push ups. I found out this past weekend that when properly motivated I was able to do 66. I am always able to do more pullups in a competative group workout than when I'm alone. Clearly there is a mind-body connection here! We need to train our brains too. We need to question that small voice that is telling us we can't do another rep because we probably can.

Today's workout:

5 rounds for time:

21 DB thrusters

15 Overhead Walking lunges (same DB's)

9 pull ups
