If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. The following five concepts were core to COT’s from workouts which I’ve led this year. I felt that they all absolutely still apply, and so I wanted to share a snippet from each concept with you. After all, today was Rancid’s Greatest HIITs!
Say “Yes” – To purposefully say ‘yes’ to life is a powerful discipline
Tune-Up – A process in which small changes are made to something in order to make it work better.
Traveling – Who are the people with whom you care to share your time?
Loving Kindness – “Accelerating”, “locking shields” and “picking up the six”lead us to our most impactful results.
Get Uncomfortable – Leave your flock; go out and rescue the one who is lost.
Take a look through my Backblasts if you’re curious to learn more. I promise, you’ll learn something new about me and, even more likely, about yourself.
I love you, all. I’ll miss you all. I’ll see you again.
Thank you, F3 Omaha!
Thank you, Sky Q!

Aye,
Rancid
