5/13 Whole Life Wednesday

Kim and Sarah A. show good glute and core engagement with the Russian kettlebell swing. Todd does a good job of keeping the kettlebell close. 
We are into our second week of the Whole Life Challenge. The weekly lifestyle challenge this week is to support at least three of your teammates. This week's challenge is so powerful because our words become our actions. When we're all supportive of each other, we feel good and the energy in the gym feels good. It's way easier to do CrossFit when it's fun and feels good. 
Have you every walked into the gym and had your spirits buoyed by a smile or greeting? Our coaches have. We all have shared with each other how we are inspired and energized daily by all of you. Thank you! 
Today at the gym, see if you can say something supportive to three of your fellow athletes. Take note of how good  if feels to give and receive support and encouragement. When we feel connected to others we have more energy, are capable of terrific things, and are generally better people.
