Comparison is the thief of joy.

When you shift your focus towards self instead of what others are doing, you find you start progressing faster than before.

Train harder for YOU.

Lift heavier for YOU.

Eat to fuel your body for YOU.

Root for others and encourage their work while knowing that you’re on your own journey and capable of so much too.

There is only one of you. Respect your uniqueness and revel in your own accomplishments. 🙌🏽

Special shoutout to this father-son duo on their outstanding performances this weekend at @poweroutput .

@wytt.w competed in the TEEN division and let his competitor spirit shine! He snagged himself the top spot 🥇 and even PRD his thruster during competition. 🙌🏽

His father Paul, was among a stacked group of individuals representing the 50+ group. He fought with all his might despite having an injury and earned himself a 🥈 finish.

You two have worked very hard over the years and we hope that this weekend reminded you that no matter what age you are, the competitive spirit never weakens or dies. Keep it up y’all 🙌🏽 ...

Bedlam Fam ❤️

In order for anything to work for you in life there needs to be a consistency of effort.
How big or small will vary on the day but giving what you can will outweigh not giving anything at all.

The goals you’ve set are not going to magically appear before you.
Your hope for a successful tomorrow rests on what you put in today.

If a program isn’t giving you the results you’ve been looking for, ask yourself

•Am I eating optimally to maximize my progress?
•Am I drinking enough water to aid in absorbency of nutrients and digestion?
•Am I getting enough sleep and managing my stressors?
•Am I looking within and taking care of my mental well being?

If the answer is no to any of those than perhaps a shift in effort towards those areas will help you move in the direction you’re seeking. If the answer is yes to all of those than it likely means a program shift could help to provide a more progressive stimulus.

Being “healthy” or “fit” is a balance of lifestyle choices designed to give your body what it needs physically and mentally to thrive and perform for you. It’s not just about the hour or two hours you workout a day. You can’t out work poor lifestyle choices. High effort in one area does not cancel out no effort in another.

You are worth showing up for.
You are worth the effort.
You can achieve what you want.

A little bit goes a lot further than nothing.
It doesn’t have to be perfect or 100%.
You just have to be consistent.
