Circle of Success....
Greetings LYMLifers today's post is basically about your entourage that follows you through life. I am basically telling you to check your circle of friends or should I say "Circle of Success". No matter what point you are at in your life its always time for a weeding out. Surround yourself with people that compliment you as a growing person. I surround myself with people who force me to be a better person. Within my circle we all have something to bring to the table. No one is considered dead weight. Always try to surround yourself with people who are doing better than you. This will help motivate you to reach their level. Give yourself a challenge and set your friends bar of success high trust me it will help you rise to the occasion. Also make sure your friends support you. Those who are genuinely happy for you when you are doing well are the true ones. Those who show jealousy are not real friends. So until next time beware of your surroundings and check your friends your real friends will serve you long....
Go Hard Or Go Home.....
I will admit in my life I have one serious addiction aside from food and that is the gym. Now I don't expect you all to take on this addiction but I do expect you to at least attempt to make some contribution to your health. We all usually wait for the new years to make it a resolution "I'm going to get fit this year", but why wait? Why wait for tomorrow when you can start today. Whether your vices are affecting your health or you just need to tighten up that frame a little, its time to get your piece of the pie.
I have been consistently working out for a couple years now and honestly its one of the only things in my life that gives the satisfaction from success after I put in the work. What I put in is exactly what I get out of it. Now I know a major issue with a lot of people is the time factor. Also people get tired of the same thing day in day out and get bored with their workouts. Some want to get big and strong, some want to whittle down and improve endurance, others just want to look good. Well I have an answer to all your problems and requests.....

| Crossfit-Forging Elite Fitness |
Crossfit is the simplest answer to your problems. I have been following crossfit for about almost a year now and I am extremely pleased with the results obtained. I don't have one complaint. I reap exactly what I sow. More importantly I enjoy the new challenge that each workout brings.
According to wikipedia: CrossFit is a strength and conditioning fitness methodology used in nearly 1,700 gyms worldwide and by many fire departments, law enforcement agencies and military units.
According to the crossfit journal : Crossfit is a strength and conditioning system built on constantly varied, if not randomized, functional movements executed at high intensity. Man’s world, nature, is full of movement. Our standing, sitting, throwing, lifting, pushing, pulling, climbing, running, and of course, punching are all quite natural. They got us where we are. They are part of our design."
To me crossfit is a blend of all types of physical activity put together to make an time efficient, extremely intense, result forcing workout. There are many outlets for you to get in tune with the crossfit movement they are as follows:
www.crossfit.com (main crossfit site)
www.crossfitendurance.com
www.crossfitfootball.com
The sites are self explanatory and give you a full intro with crash course on how to begin your journey towards a fitter you. Here are some motivational pictures(via crossfit affiliated sites and blogs) to spark your flame....

One Day Without Shoes....
Your mother always told you not to complain when life gets tough, because there is someone out there who has it worse than you. Well there are many children across the world that have been deprived of this simple luxury of wearing shoes. In many developing countries children are forced to walk barefoot to school, to clean water, and to find medical help. A lot of you out there may take the simple privilege of being able to buy and wear shoes for granted but its time you think outside yourself. So I ask you to do your part in contributing to the less fortunate. Your country may not have this issue but remember "this is our world". So tomorrow as you get up for school work or whatever it may be, toss those shoes and socks aside, you wont need them. So whether you read this before your day begins on April 5th, or you read it during the day just lose the shoes ASAP. Donate shoes or buy a new pair from www.TOMS.com to take your contribution to the next level. For every pair purchased from TOMS they will donate a pair to the children trapped in poverty. LYMLIFE= changing lives so if you consider yourself part of this movement I suggest you lose the shoes. Don't take my word for it read up and enlighten yourself at http://www.onedaywithoutshoes.com/. And please remember you aren't doing this for me you are doing it for the kids who live this barefoot life on a daily basis. Thank you again for taking the time out of your day to read this and remember until next time keep it LYM.....
