Workout Wednesday


Today is the halfway mark for the week :)

We hope you are taking on challenges this week and knocking the obstacles down one at a time to get closer to your ultimate goals! The photo above is an image of the tallest rockclimbing building! Is that inspiring or just frightening? hahaha It seems a bit scary to think about being at the top of that with just a rope keeping you from falling to your death but it is also what makes it exciting!!!! This is part of the reason why we push ourselves to do some of the crazy things we do - for the thrill of it! Keep this image in mind as you workout this week and never give up on yourself! Positive thinking only, no matter how hard it is! Challenge Accepted!
