WORKOUT-03/26/10


I've been sick with the stomach flu, working too much, and more focused on the success of our new box than my own training as of late. Needless to say, with sectionals in two days, I needed a little inspiration. As always I found it just at the right time! I just read this passage from OPT's site and it has me pumped. Please read, enjoy and apply!!!!

Big Dawg Mantra

I know you...
I know you're bigger, faster and stronger than me.
I know your Fran time is lower, your 5k is quicker and your deadlift is heavier.
I know you have 1,000 views on YouTube.
I know you're a "WOD" warrior.
I know you, but you don't know me.
You don't know what's in my head, what's in my heart, what's in my soul.
You don't know that pain is my ally.
You don't know that sweat and blood are my training partners.
You don't know that I'm unbreakable.
I know you train in your temperature controlled gym with the tough sounding name while I'm training in garage exposed to the elements. In the heat and in the cold, in the humidity, rain and snow, I'm forging mental toughness. I'm tempering my resolve. I'm fueling my passion. I'm getting ready for the day that we meet.
I know your 1,000 YouTube views won't mean shit in front of 1,000 spectators. I know when the heat goes up I go big and you go home.
I know you don't know me...but you will. - Dave X

  1. Great passage, it should go on the wall. To all three of you competing all the training is over. Time to just pick up the f'ing bar!

  2. That sent chills down my back dude. Awesome post.
    We all know your going to destroy the sectionals bro and then move on to the regionals. These are just stepping stones for you getting to Aromas. It sucks that we are flying this weekend because you know I would be out there supporting you and Gil. Do your thing and nothing less. Like Apollo told Rocky, "There is no tomorrow!!" I dont know if that makes sence but damm it sounded good.
