Success

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

"Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year,  but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever." Lance Armstrong
 Look at these stats! 97% of you PR'ed yesterday. Wow. What really impresses me the most is how many of you just a few short months back had trouble cleaning the bar...or understanding what a "clean" was in the first place.

Some of you avoided the classes where we worked on the Olympic Lifts.

It's amazing how if we attack those things we suck at, we suddenly don't suck at them anymore.

Then, suddenly....as if by magic... Cleaning and Jerking the bar is, dare we say it?

FUN!

Impressive work, everyone! I am very proud of all of you.

Now let's attack something else we suck at...
