Power. Interesting idea- training for power. There's actually a scientific meaning for this word as it relates to fitness, different from
Strength. Power is the ability to implement strength. And also interesting that the circuit is mostly body weight exercises. Being able to pull yourself up or pull yourself out or lift a weight over your head are important skills in life. If you're any kind of athlete, endurance matters too. My feeling is that we are all athletes. Our bodies carry us through life and enable us to meet challenges. Additionally, our minds and are bodies are entwined. Food and mood are intertwined. I always feel better coming out of the gym. Endorphins.

Ending week 1, I think it's been a successful program. I have a lot of stressful things in my life and flakey people right now. Trying or organize creative projects in LA and see them through with people of differing backgrounds and levels of commitment is difficult and frustrating. And having your friends and family drop off since they're too busy with raising kids and having families is tough too. But I like the idea of Strength training and training for power too.

But of all the maxims, the most important is Show up! When you show up consistently over time, anything is possible. Focus. Intensity. Perseverance. Believe in You.
