Let it go


Leadership produces adversaries. Adversaries can produce animosity, anger, even hatterd within yourself, and allowing these emotinos to have a home in your heart is self destructive.
   Don't hold a grudge. It takes up room in your heart, it takes up time in your life and it takes up space in your mind....Let it go. Let others hate and be hurt, don't do it to yourself.
   Remember what Mother Teresa said, "Forgivemess will set you free."

Front Squat Max



Front Squat Max
"Today is our second ever online competition with PDX Weightlifting in Protland Oregon. Last time we did Cleans and came out as losers (someone has to lose right?) but this time, i am confident we can out squat them! We are going to do the scoring a bit different so things should come out a bit more even but everyone is invited (and required if you show up) to compete. We are not only a family but a team and we gotta compete together!!
Luckily if you can’t make it in the afternoon we have our morning weightlifting program starting today as well. It is the first of its kind in the area and should be loads of fun! I know someone out there is crazy enough to get up early to throw around some weights right?" Dutch
