YHC was thinking of a theme for today’s workout and thought about how life can get hard at times. When life knocks you down on your face you have to dig deep and push your self back up (merkins). And once you have pushed your self up to your knees then you need to stand up (get ups). And even though you are on your feet the weight of the world can still be wearing you down and causing those knees to bend. You still have to draw from within and stand tall (squats). Once you are standing tall then you need to look around you and find the others that are in that similar situation and help them to get to their feet and stand with you.
