Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore, give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions, and determine to pay the price for a worthy goal. The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths. Remain steadfast… and one day you will build something that endures, something worthy of your potential. -Epictetus

  1. cindy frog my technique was flawless yeah right i am an amateur i forgot to mention runs on treadmill so that is easier. for hurts 2 core i will probably scale good morning to 20 lb bar to stay true to form messin around with those i found i was rounding my back a lot. you know i have i speed slow and steady you have always been more explosive and powerful, i am sure i probably only do about half of the stuff right but at least i am better looking heeeee heeee.

  2. I'm still alive, which is always nice. The core workout seemed to drag, probably because the L-sits nearly became impossible; took me forever to accumulate 60 seconds. I did Grace in 4:46 and the core workout took me 27:14. It kind of sucked having to work around other gym rats to accomplish the core routine.
