Trinity Crest
I just wanted to remind everyone that we have measurements this Saturday! Please arrive ABSOLUTELY NO LATER THAN a half hour after your designated start point. I encourage everyone to get to the gym ON TIME, but if you come past a half hour after your team’s designated start point, I may not be able to get to you (one of me, lots of you…):
-
Team Poseidon: 10am – 11am
-
Team Hephaestus: 11am – 12pm
-
Team Apollo: 12pm-1pm
I would like everyone to wear either tank tops or form fitting clothing. The more you surface skin area shown for the picture, the better results you get in the AFTER picture. I get some people showing up in baggy shirts and they refuse to take the shirt off… Makes it VERY hard to show progress. Since we’re on the topic of the picture…
I want to let everyone know that ONLY myself and/or whoever the picture taker may be (either me or someone hand-chosen by me who I trust and thus, by default, is trustworthy in this process) will be the ones to see these pictures. That is it. They will not go on Facebook, and they will not be shown to ANYONE else past the point of when the picture itself is taken. With that said… I encourage you to recognize that you need to know where you’ve started to know where you’re going. If you don’t want to see the start point because you’re not exactly proud of it, then how is the END point (when you’re proud beyond your wildest dreams) going to be affect? If I had a dime for every time I heard “I wish I would have taken my shirt off…” or “I see what you were talking about in the beginning…” well then I’d have enough to buy lunch.
All I’m saying is that you’re entering a challenge that the whole point is to push yourself out of your comfort zone, and it starts with the little things. The little victories. The small moments where a whisper of “I can…” drowns out the deafening roar of “YOU CAN’T!” You are going to encounter MANY of these moments along the way. Embrace them, no matter how big or small. Every moment you can look back on and say “my defeatist side didn’t win that time, why should it now?” is just more ammo for your soul’s assault rifle.
Lastly, take note of the outfit you wear for measurements. You want to wear the same outfit at the end of the challenge as you do at the beginning so the before/after photos are a dead lively match.
Measurement day is going to be fast paced on my end. I will have instructions for what to do, what papers to fill out, where to go for pictures, and everything you need to have done. Once all the papers you need to fill out have been filled out, your measurements and picture have been taken, you are good to go!
For now, I’ll leave you a perfect “Warriors” rendition of what to expect come January 14th. The first day of the rest of Hulk’s lives. Be on the lookout for a post and video dedicated strictly to orientation day. Get ready to experience firsthand the movement you are part of.
