Inspiration.

Today in the Gym I bore witness to one of the most inspiring things Ive ever seen. There was a gentleman who had prosthesis on his right leg below the Knee. I can put two and two together so that and the Wounded Warrior Tshirt he had on he was/is a green suiter who was injured downrange. I finished the main portion of my training and found myself sneaking glances at what he was doing. This guy was Squatting. He didn't have 5 plates on each side, he wasnt following any sort of protocol (I think) but he was gettin shit done. After that he moved on to deadlifts- again, nothing herculean BUT HE WAS GETTING HIS. His form and effort put  ALOT of people in that gym today to fucking shame.

I wanted to shake his hand and offer any help but what I also noticed is that he had that gleam in his eye. The one that says 'dont fuck with me'. Message received brother. I thought about my 'long day' my 'shortcomings' my bullshit. And that's all it is.

Bullshit and Excuses.

                                                                                 Truth.

However 'Hardcore' you think you are or your (gag) 'beast mode' Theres a guy like the one I saw with a permanent INJURY who is working twice as hard with less to work with. Get over yourself. Be humbled and be thankful for what you have and make the most of it. FRONT TOWARDS EVERYONE.
