Introduction
Ever had a WOD that you questioned if you could make it through? This WOD was one of those for YHC. High reps with weight coupled with isometric holds of the same muscle group to ensure no quarter is given to those tired muscles.
Mumble Chatter was strong with the small Pax and the dip in temperature. The Pax squeezed every second out of our 60 minute beatdown and YHC is feeling every muscle right now.
Condition

During Coffeteria, Popeye and YHC had a long discussion on standards. What they are, why they are important, and when to enforce them vs relax them. Standards are needed to maintain the expectation and ensure it is effective. The discussion caused YHC to take a good look at his life and identify where the standard is being met and where it isn’t.
YHC challenges the reader of this to examine their life and see where the standard is being met. Is it at work where you’re doing the minimum or is there places where excel and use your gifts to the full extent? Is it at home where you could spend more time with the M or 2.0’s? Is it in your spiritual life where more time in meditation or reading could be increased?
Men, the standard is there for a reason. Enforce the standard.
