Sarah, Emily, and Madaline

Welcome to “No Complain November”!

During this month, we are asking for your help to call each other out when we complain.  If you get “caught”, you do a burpee!

The point isn’t really the burpee, it is to help us see if we are big complainers and to train ourselves to look for the good in life rather than the irritating. When you focus your mind, either consciously or subconsciously on negative thoughts you end up seeing life through a negative lens; however, the exact opposite can happen, too: when you start looking for the good in everything, you end up thinking good thoughts more often instead.

We are so grateful to get to come in to the gym, help others with their fitness, and exercise with our friends. Thanks in advance for your help. Here’s to making your class one of the best parts of your day!

Workout of the Day

A.
Pull-ups and Progressions

B.
Every 6 minutes, for 18 minutes (3 rounds):
50 Abmat Butterfly Sit-ups
500/400m Row
