We started with running a giant nipple drill (not as sensual as it sounds), then we ran ladders, sprints and the Gauntlet. We jumped on the treadmill (8 minutes at 7.5 mph) and then finished with a bear-crawl drill in one of the aerobic rooms. It was a heart-pumping, lung burning workout.
Most people think of workouts as just a physical activity. But there is a real mental component to it also. Fatigue makes you mentally weak. It allows things to get inside your head. We are like oranges — you can tell what’s inside of us when we are squeezed.
I’ve been squeezed a lot the past three years. I have a lot more work to do.
