Re-Blitz


OK, this is not a new workout.....but it is the original Velocity challenge. It takes some fortitiude to jump into this baby......you get a few butterflies before you begin and that my friends is a very good sign. How many times do you get nervous before you do a strength workout or go for a run? My guess is not very often.....

However, most people experience a much higher level of arousal before a game or competition. It's this deeper emotional engagement that adds meaning and drama to a game or competiton. It makes you dig deeper, it makes you invest emotionally, and in the end it makes you try just a little bit harder.

Timing a workout adds an element of competiton that a normal workout does not possess. It creates pressure and a sense of obligation to yourself. This is where you discover yourself....are you going to tap out, or are you going to battle to the end?

I drop the Blitz as a challenge to my clients, friends, and family. Go hard, be brave, and most of all.......don't quit.

Post some times,
