Atlanta Elite

What make us "Elite"? This seems a pretty arrogant, egotistical, elevated sense of superiority.

Well, no one else can hang with us. As a group, our fitness measured by a standard Army PT test, tops any other group in Atlanta. Furthermore, we win races, tennis matches and golf tournaments.

This morning, while schools where closing and folks all over Atlanta were going back to bed, we got 3 miles and 700 repetitions of various upper body exercise completed. It was no different than any other day, week, month or year in nearly a decade of discipline.

What is the difference between exercise & training? Exercise is what folks will be doing in a gym tonight. Dragging your ass out of bed in the winter snow for an outdoor workout...training.

Sendentary VS Active/Elite

We are going to out-live our children. That is now a fact. Why? Because we have taken physical education out of education.

We are growing house plants. We are rooting children into the couch, watering them and feeding them and watching them grow fatter. It is disgusting.

This week, the powers that be have institutionalize laziness. We are taking the week off because its cold outside. This is a F($#ing joke.

If you have registered and paid for boot camp, SHOW UP. I know we are all products of our environment. I know that if TV tells you to sleep in, it is impossible to resist.

Be an agent for change. Be an example for the weak, and the kids. Be an example of discipline and strength. STOP making excuses.
