Learning to Suffer

Yesterday we did Fight Gone Bad. The entire workout, including 2 one minute rest periods, is 17 minutes. Did you suffer any?


I hope so. 


Jacque  mentioned that one of the reasons she likes CrossFit is because through it, she has learned to suffer.She realized that it is only through suffering that there is growth.



The old adage "no pain no gain" came about through the fitness industry.


Society teaches us to avoid suffering at all costs. Psychiatrists want to put us all on drugs, so we can handle life better and avoid all pain and suffering. Truth be told, the only way to handle life, is to handle life.


Is learning not to fear suffering a step toward conquering it? What are your thoughts on this?
