Bound Newsletter 4.9.23
I hope everyone is having a great end to Spring Break, safe travels coming home, and a happy Easter spent with family and friends.
I don’t like bringing faith and politics into the gym and this could be the first time I’ve ever wrote anything concerning the two. Our small community is filled with people from so many backgrounds and beliefs that I enjoy the melting pot and how we all come together be a healthy and happy community.
This past week many of you know that Tyler Cory and I, spent a considerable amount of time sitting down with some members for video testimonials. Big Shout out to Tyler for helping out, on top of being a new dad! We did ten in all (many more to come so some of you be ready) and out of the ten there was a common theme - Community. Every person we sat down with had a direct correlation to their success with the people they workout with on a daily basis. What I came to realize, just like in the verse above, is that we are doing so much more than working out. We are making each other better. We are showing each other the fruits of the spirit - love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and gentleness (Galatians 5:22-23) and by doing these things whether directly or indirectly; we are training for so much more than just fitness. We are training for ourselves, our families, and our professions cause we know that by working hard, showing love - joy - peace and maintaining self control in our lives it will help those around us.
I want to thank all of our members both now, past and future for sharing your lives with us. I am truly grateful.

This weeks tester workout is Chelsea. Chelsea is a EMOM30 of 5 pull-ups + 10 pushups + 15 air squats. If you have completed this before as a EMOM to increase the intensity you add 1 repetition to each exercise ie: 6 pull-ups + 11 pushups + 16 air squats. If you have completed Chelsea with that rep scheme then you can an additional rep 7 +12 +17.
Goals to complete the workout as written first with perfect repetitions (that goes for pushups *chest to ground then arms to full extension! and squats hip crease below the knee - NOT CHEST TO KNEE).
