What Are You Doing About It?

"What are you doing about it?"

It's a simple question, but pretty much the answer to every complaint you've ever made in your entire life.

"What are you doing about it?"

People love to complain, moan, whine. Like that's going to make anything better.

It won't.

You can eat this world or it can eat you.

The only way to conquer and stay ahead of the game is to be the most resilient person you know. Grab the bar and destroy the workout.

Let it destroy you and then get back up.

Like doing thrusters: you can approach that lift methodically and make it some combo of front squat and push press. Sure. Conserve energy, pace, etc. Or, sometimes, you can just go nuts. Let gravity have its flippin' way.

  • Let the bar crush you.

  • And then get back up.

  • Crush.

  • And up.

  • Again and again.

Take that, bar. Take that, world.

You can't crush me. You can't ever f***ing crush me.

And when you're in the middle of getting crushed and standing back up? You're in the fight. There's no time - or air -- for complaining. Just time for working. And fighting.
