Alphas Gym

Kelley has had a rough 2 years with shoulder pain from a work accident. Many would have folded and just sat on the couch but thanks to some good gym friends and some AMAZING coaching from Danger! she is hanging in and being consistent.

I would also like to say that absolutely nobody has come close to helping as many people overcome more terrible injuries than Danielle. Major surgeries and some serious problems have happened to some of my favorite members and SHE took the lead and developed programs or exercises that led the way through some rough troubles. I have no doubt that some members would not be in the good shape they are now if she didn't step up. THANK YOU!!!

NEW COACH ALERT!!!

Erin joined the Tribe only a few months ago but I knew she was one of us immediately. She has a deep fitness coaching background and lives the gym life as well as anyone. Even better, she hadn't even been here a week and had already made friends and was often helping people.

I have said many times you are entitled to your labor, but not the fruits of your labor. What that means is we can work hard for something but it's not guaranteed we will get it... so loving the process is just as important as hitting the goal. Something Erin wrote to me is "I’m all about enjoying the work that leads to the end goal" and that was when I realized she HAD to be a coach in the Tribe.

She runs 5k's and marathons. She lifts heavy. She has Hyrox experience. And best of all she is fun and approachable. For the short term her task will be "catching" people new to the gym who need a bit of help learning their way around. But when we move to the new building she will be running a strength class during the day or on the weekend. She will also help Laura during the Clang Gang training that starts soon!

Please welcome Erin (NOW AND FOREVER KNOWN AS COACH ROADWORK) and definitely say congrats when you see her.

Laura and I got a morning workout before the day starts. Not much better than a tough workout where you want to quit but finish. Self-respect is a huge part of good mental health and is earned through growth & challenge. The gym offers every opportunity to improve and feel good about yourself if you are willing to put in the work.

Laura did a leg day in the Iron Church. My workout was...

(100) Pushups
(100) KB Squats
(200) Oblique twist with 25lb ball
(10) rds :10/:50 Murderbike
(9) rds Battlerope :45/:15

Happy Sunday!

Tonya looking FANTASTIC repping the Tribe in Mexico. Happy Birthday and you deserve all the fun. Safe travels and know we adore you much.

Classes are done!!! Laura and I are gonna get a workout then head over to the new building and do stuff. Feel free to drop in and say hi if you see our cars. HAPPY SATURDAY!!!
