All my workouts fueled by timhortons 😂😍

Today I learned quite a few lessons at the gym

1. Failure is actually a blessing 
2. Just showing up is a major win 
3. Just keep trying 
4. Community and encouragement is one of the greatest tools you can ever have 
5. Every little bit counts 
6. It’s okay to modify and do what feels right
7. You might have to adjust or modify or adapt but any movement is a benefit 

I was so close to just calling it a day after I failed a couple of reps and then gregpcox looked over at me and said “it’s okay to rest and it’s also okay to fail” and that pushed me through the last bit of my workout and im so grateful it did! 

I also almost didn’t even walk through the doors because when I got to the gym I realized I had no shoes, no bra, no shorts and no hair elastic. What normally would’ve sent me actually just made me laugh and adapt. Thankful for a community at the gym that lent me all of the above and we made it work
