One of the amazing things about our program at CrossFit Bartlett, and CrossFit in general is that we expose you to different avenues of athleticism that you don’t normally get exposed to.
Heck many things like Snatches and Tire Flips you can’t even do in a regular gym.
When was the last time you climbed anything?
The other night we had rope or cargo climbs in a workout. For most people these are very difficult movements, and for some it’s downright terrifying.
What I witnessed that night was many people afraid of trying something new. That’s totally understandable. What I also witnessed was those same people pushing through and giving it a shot.
That’s AMAZING! In today’s society it’s so easy to avoid the things you think will be hard, or the things you just simply don’t want to do. Many people could’ve checked the workout and not shown up that. I’m sure some people did.
But what I saw, was determination, grit, and the willingness of the whole class to do there best. Pushing through those struggles, fears, and more importantly self doubt is what makes us stronger both mentally and physically.
It was a very proud moment for me, and I hope it was the same for you. If you missed class you missed out. I’m grateful to have been a witness to it, and I’m grateful everyday for the efforts that we see put forth here at CFB.
Keep up the great work!
