Here is a great post that I came across. I thought you might all enjoy it:
“Excuses -There are none. If you break your hand, you work around it. You have to adapt and thrive under adversity. Over coming difficulties build confidence. Knowing – not thinking or wishing or hoping – you can overcome what life throws at you is the essences of confidence. Getting up one more time than you fall. Anyone can train under optimal conditions. Any one can stay snuggly in their comfort zones. Anyone can go to their favorite bar and platform and perform. How about when the bar sucks, the ground is uneven and you have to perform? Character is developed by such adversity. Excuses – There are none.”

Nice post, Shannon! Thanks for a great reminder to us all!!!! Anyone can do something easy and in perfect conditions; it’s the digging deep despite the challenge where real growth occurs in our lives. HEW has made a huge impact on my life in that way!
Awesome WOD today, HEW! Great job 9 AMers! Mary and Sarah, it was great seeing you again! I WANT TO GIVE A HUGE SHOUT-OUT TO MICHELLE C, WHO, IN AWESOME COACH-STYLE, EXPLAINED TO ME HOW TO BOUND OVER THOSE HURDLES TODAY…AND WHEN I WASN’T SURE I COULD, SHE TOLD ME I COULD…AND GUESS WHAT???? I DID IT!!!!!!! FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, I WAS ABLE TO RX THE HURDLES! (Coming off the hurdles, I immediately saw Jenna and she celebrated with me ….I think I added 10 seconds to her WOD time…lol!). I enjoyed this WOD. It was fun to sprint around from station to station!! My shoulders are feeling yesterday’s Push Ups, and I know for a fact that my quads will be joining my shoulders tomorrow with such an honor! I can feel the muscles growing!!!! I love it! Hard Exercise Works!!!!!!
Great job, 6 AMers up in Stuart this morning!!!! We ran the same WOD, with a few modifications, and had a blast! We had 20 clients at the 6 AM WOD this morning! Awesome people getting an awesome workout!!!! The next WOD is at 6 PM; now’s the time to get in on the FREE 5-WEEK BOOT CAMP DEAL….so please spread the word! We’re about two weeks from opening !!!!!!!!

Just wanted to thank the HEW staff and everyone in the 9 and 10:00 classes for the birthday wishes and great (but sooooo embarrassing)song. It was a fun workout and a great day! One of my best presents? Thanks to HEW, today I was able to comfortably fit into a pair of shorts I haven’t been able to wedge myself into in years. You guys are the best!
