I'm using the next 100 days to lock in on knocking out my goal of reaching 280LBs. When I'd first written down that number, I didn't know if it was possible. But one thing this journey has taught me was to never doubt what is possible for yourself. Feel free to join me.

Active rest day. Back on my Les Mill BodyCombat, and it feels so good! 30 minutes down.

We NEVER fear, fear. We don't even fear failure because we know failure builds us up, giving us experience. Let's beat the fear of taking action 💯

Determining in advance that there's a possibility that you can, and will, face hardships along the path to your goal will help prepare you mentally when they arrive 💯
