John Lennon said “Amateurs borrow, professionals steal”. Lennon stole this idea from T. S. Elliot’s “amateur poets borrow; mature poets steal.”

I proudly stole ideas from some of my favorite workouts today.

  • Thanks Hammertime for the wind sprints. #BullseyesFavorite.
  • I stole Arm-O-Rama from Tulip in San Antonio.
  • I can’t remember if The Bishop or Duggar did the curb merkins first.  Either way, it’s a crowd pleaser.
  • Inferno inspired the hammy stretches prior to the wind sprints.
  • I can thank Britney for the idea of keeping up the pace with very few breaks.

So many Q’s have taught me how to run a WO.  I have so much to be thankful for!
