When Life Changes
The only thing that is constant about life is change! Change comes in many forms. It may come having planned it over some time or without notice. No matter how organized you are things don’t always go to plan.
I have recently gone through one of life's most significant changes and became a father. It's fair to say that life has forever changed. It has been an enormous challenge for a person who is somewhat self-centered and selfish with his time. Adjusting life to ensure the safety and well-being of someone dependent on you continues to be the biggest challenge and learning.
When life changes, remember the following three things to keep you grounded and moving forward!
Change = Learning – There are no books on life or fatherhood, for that matter. Go with your gut feeling and let your instincts kick in, every challenge or change is an opportunity to learn, and you should be grateful that you are in a position to know!
Appreciate the little things in life – Something we all tend to forget, stay in the moment, enjoy the smiles, the minutes you spend with your loved ones, and the small wins you get every day.
Everyone goes through change – If you're having a bad moment or day, remember you are not alone, and it could be worse.
Life is a journey that ultimately leads to the same destination for everyone. The changes along the way and how you deal with them will shape who you are. No one's perfect, and that's the point, so keep on living life!

ENGINE
We are going to mix things up a bit this week, varying modalities, time frames and distances designed to push your aerobic capacity.
GYMNASTICS
To kick things off, we will spend some time on Pull-ups and chest-to-bar pull-ups before we move off the rig and onto the floor as we look to break down and develop the Handstand Walk.
HYROX
Working on compromised running this week. Running consistently strong when there is nothing left in your legs is a key skill in Hyrox.
MOBILITY
Improving your overhead mobility will show you how to improve not only flexibility but also stability using a few key exercises that you can do in your own time.
PURE STRENGTH
In Pure Strength this week, we will kick the week off with a mixture of paused and unpaused back squats, followed by some heavy single-leg work. Wednesday sees us continue our progression on the strict press and the stationary dips.

This week in weightlifting we focus on the power snatch and hang power snatch with a series of complexes followed by some EMOM percentage work
Track Tuesday
The purpose of this workout is to develop threshold speed. To do this we’re running through 3X800m into 2X400m finishing with a final best effort over 800m, then repeating the whole set again!
