It was New Year's Eve... well, just about.
It was 3 PM on New Year's Eve and the dedicated crew of athletes & lifters rolled up to The in Edison, NJ.
Some had traveled as far as 1 hr to drive here & I let the thought enter my mind.... "Where are the kids who live 5 - 10 minutes away from here who keep telling me they're too busy during the season?"
Instead of getting disappointed I get fired up by reminding myself to have ZERO expectations of people.
I get The Rocky IV soundtrack pumping and we're off to the races with a kick ass warm up.
Some of our college athletes are back for break and I get inspired as they're only freshman and already stronger than me.
One of our girls stops in to say hello and like a true champ jumps in for a training session. She crushes her training session with a blend of deadlifts, Kettlebell swings, rowing variations and varied farmer walks.
Again, I am fired up to see a girl training for performance and loving the process and beauty behind strength, speed and muscle.
When the training session nears the end one of my earliest members of Underground Strength HQ rolls up with a surprise visit. Ron, who was training with us when we opened before leaving for OCS in Quantico, stops by and had plans to train at the gym next door.
Many of you know how I feel about the Military.....
