Yesterday I took a ride a to a tire yard, off in the back woods of a small town in NJ.
There were tires upon tires from all types of trucks, tractors and who the heck knows what else and where else.
I snagged a small tire around 300 lbs. or so. We needed something in between our 150 and 600 lb. tires.
The irony was that Kurt followed me to the tire yard with his Dad's pick up truck. The same pick up truck we used 5 years ago to get my used gym equipment from a barn in NJ! I still remember that barn.
There were 5' high piles of rusty deep dish ivanko and york plates, roosters roaming around, an old Harley Davidson motorcycle, bails of hay and a rusty pull up - dip bar combo.
I left with about one thousand pounds in 45, 35 and 25 lb weights plus the dip - pull up bar.
The Underground movement was beginning for me, it was the start of something BIG, something Bigger than I ever dreamt of, and, little did I know it would lead me to doing something I love for a living! Can't beat that, can ya?
How many people do what they truly love for a living? Not too many, unfortunately.
What ever happened to the pursuit of happiness? Does that only begin at age 55 when you retire from your 9 - 5 job? Or is 6 am - 10 pm? Here on the East coast, people work like slaves, it's insane.
I just spoke about this craziness with Jonny Hinds.
This is why I am taking two vacations this summer. I am pumped for both of them!
What's insane is that everyone laughed when they saw the way I was training athletes - uisng tires, sandbags, old / used equipment, stones, playgrounds, etc.
Now I have a kick ass gym filled with those insane "training tools" and we can't argue with these powerful results, that's for sure!
Heck, give me a barbell, some dumbbells and I'll take care of the rest with bodyweight - just watch and see the powerful results I'll create!
What's my point here? It's two fold...
1) Do you have a passion or deep love for something? If so, make it happen by creating it into a business.
2) Training doesn't have to be fancy, never should be if you want the real world results I always talk about.
It's time you gave yourself the opportunity to make something big happen for you, don't you agree?
