Just two chill dudes doing Army things.

We were honored to share this moment.

Whatever it is that you do, strive to be great at it and give it your all.

We would like to extend a special thank you to for carrying some of our apparel at their location!

Moving forward, for an extended period of time, our apparel will not be available on the online store. It will only be available in person at the gym.

We appreciate everyone who has continued to support us. We know we have not been very active for some time, especially here on social media. Simply, it has not been a priority with a lot of personal obligations, both past and upcoming, taking priority.

For any other locations that would be interested in carrying any of our apparel and continuing to help support us, please reach out! We would be thrilled to work with you and make it happen!

As always, thank you once again to everyone who has supported us. Once the dust settles, we look forward to getting back to things full swing.

So many people fail to even try. They fail to go after their goals and dreams because of things like fear or doubt. Some are just plain lazy.

They might as well be trying to fail.

Don't be one of those people.

The "perfect timing" will never exist.

Why wait until tomorrow what you can start today?

To the ones that gave everything- to those that sacrificed their very existence in this world...

THANK YOU.

To the rest of us- to those that get the chance to enjoy a day to cook out and spend time with friends and family....

REMEMBER THEM.

Remember those that paid the ultimate price. They deserve to have their names read with honor and their pictures posted in reverence. They deserve to have their memories sown into the fabric of freedom which we display each Memorial day and all the days in between.

Enjoy this day- but do it for them.

Why do people become so addicted to a fitness lifestyle?

Although they are satisfying perks, the answer does not lie alone within appearance and health benefits.

The simple answer is: Frequent Progress

There are not many things in our lives where progress can be measured and attained regularly. Let's take your job for instance. The average person might see a raise once a year or a promotion every few years... that is a lot of work and time committed to rarely be able to measure individual progress. Yet, we still do it because it is satisfying to be rewarded and make that progress.

So let's take that accomplished feeling of getting that promotion and tie it into fitness. Regardless of your preference or style of working out, progress can be measured in most areas by either strength, time, or appearance. Believe it or not, you can notice significant progress in any of those categories within months, weeks, and even daily so long as you are consistent.

Just imagine that, making progress and crushing goals on a regular basis. That's pretty satisfying and addicting stuff there.

It also makes sense why so many people give up on their fitness journey early on. Most likely because they initially made very little progress due to a few factors but deemed it was no longer worth it.
(Be patient. It still takes time)

People are addicted to progress, and there aren't many areas in life that can be measured frequently outside of fitness related goals.

Fitness gives us something to work towards and make progress in. FREQUENTLY, rewarding ourselves with the satisfying feeling of accomplishing goals.

So remember that if you were thinking about starting a fitness journey or just needed a good reminder to keep going!

It's about time to lock in and get back to work.

Delays and setbacks happen. That's just part of life and inevitable. What's important is that you never give up or quit.
