In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins; not through strength, but through persistence.” — Author Unknown

Are you tracking your nutrition? Have you learned how? It is highly recommended to track your nutrition. That’s why it is the base of the Pyramid. Here is an article about calorie restriction and its effects on humans. Keep working hard everyone!
“Inward calm cannot be maintained unless physical strength is constantly and intelligently replenished.”—Buddha quotes (Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.)
If you are interested in competing on August 14th, talk to me so we can get a head count for those going. It should be a fun day.
“You guys pair up in groups of three, then line up in a circle.”—Bill Peterson, a Florida State football coach

Be sparing of advice by words, but teach thy lesson by example.”—M. Tupper
Rest Day or Make-up Day
Make sure you get to Foundations 1, 2 & 3 by the end of August. The purpose is so everything will run smoothly with the systems. Also, nutrition and understanding the purpose of what we are about is very important to your success. The classes are Monday, Wednesday and Friday @ 5pm. Plan on no workout for each of the sessions. As always make sure you arrive on-time. Five burpees for each minute of tardiness EZ Facility should be working now (they have fixed the bug). Let me know if you are having any problems.
Nice job on the workouts this week everyone! Keep it up!
The man who makes everything that leads to happiness depend upon himself, and not upon other men, has adopted the very best plan for living happily. This is the man of moderation, the man of manly character and of wisdom.”—Plato

It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”—Theodore Roosevelt

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.”—Groucho Marx
