In remembering the 12 that gave their lives 79 years ago from Delaware everything we have done today has been 12. We could surely have changed things up a in regards to the bear crawls however; these guys only went one direction and most likely did it in a low crawl manner. This list excludes the two who were killed in training exercises prior the invasion. 

Repeat workout as needed to completion time.

Sometimes, the day after a challenging workout can be a struggle. Your muscles are sore and that makes it hard to get in and out of your car (if you can get to your car in the first place). But there are ways to ease the pain from a good workout. Here’s how to speed up your recovery:

Drink a lot of water

Hydrating after a workout is key to recovery. Without enough water in your body, you won’t be able to bounce back and take advantage of all of the hard work you’ve just done. Water provides many benefits for your body, including carrying nutrients and oxygen to your cells and regulating body temperature. Without proper hydration, it’s difficult for your body to normalize blood pressure and stabilize your heartbeat. You’ll reap the rewards of your tough workout when you drink water.

Get enough sleep

Getting proper rest is easily one of the most effective ways to recover from any form or degree of physical exertion. Sleep allows your body to repair its muscle tissue. Hormones, such as human growth hormone and testosterone, increase during sleep, which helps you perform even better the next day. By sleeping eight hours each night, you’ll not only recover quickly but also reduce your chances of injury.

To improve your sleep quality, give yourself time to relax each evening as you get in bed. Sticking to a regular schedule will help you avoid being overly tired before getting in bed. You can also fall asleep quickly by stopping the use of electronics at least a half hour before your bedtime. Following these sleep tips takes discipline, but you’ll be well-rested when you wake up.

Eat nutritious food

Consuming the best foods possible will give your body the proper fuel it needs to perform and recover. What you put in your body matters because your recovery depends on the vitamins and nutrients you digest. Physical activity puts stress on your body, so you need to support the recovery process by eating well.  

Foods that can be beneficial in your recovery process include whey protein powder, black beans, whole milk, Greek yogurt, whole-wheat pasta, and chicken. Give your body foods that will provide energy and nutrients that facilitate muscle building.

Massage

An effective way to reduce delayed onset muscle soreness is massage. This increases blood flow which speeds up the recovery process. The increase in circulation also helps to reduce the feeling of fatigue that follows a tough workout. Intense muscle soreness can be reduced (no matter what type of workout you’ve done) with the help of massage. This is true for a wide range of physical activity from running to bodybuilding. Apply what you’ve learnedBy putting these tips to work for you, you can provide your body with the tools it needs to recover. The sooner you recover, the sooner you can continue to achieve your fitness goals.

3^rd F Motivation

Encouragement – Words or behavior that give someone confidence to do something.  Everyone in this circle has been tested multiple times with challenges that we all think we cannot achieve.  That is the Lord helping us become stronger HIM.  He said in (Isaiah Chapter 41 Verses 10) ”So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”  Think about a recent event, the passing of my father, Johnny’s father, trouble with a spouse, a friend, a co-worker.  The group of HIM inside this circle has been there to help each other overcome this adversity, struggle, challenge we have been dealt to find that confidence to do that one thing we needed to do to feel that accomplishment.  Continue to set a goal for yourself to find a person, young man, child, to help encourage in school, work, church, sports, whatever it may be to help gain the confidence they need to take that next step.   

I said this quote on my last Q where I had to step up and fill-in on a day I don’t normally attend.  “Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit” – Vince Lombardi

Write that down somewhere where you can see it and have that phrase be your encouragement.

3^rd F Motivation

What drives you to come to post to a workout?  Trying to lose weight?  Get in Better Shape?  Skip one night of reaching for a drink?  Start your day right with a clear mind? Let this quote sink in:

“Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit” – Vince Lombardi

People who set goals to achieve things in life need to live by this simple saying.  You want to start a new business, post this sign on a wall, write it on a Post-It in your truck, put it on a mirror in your bathroom.  Track your successes and failures.  I have kept a weight tracker on my phone, marking down my weight since 2/24/2022 I was 260 lbs. and recently weighed in at 231.  My goal is to get back to my college baseball weight but not lose strength. 

What is your goal?  Write it down and track it.  Find a place to write down what Coach Lombardi said and commit yourself to that phrase.
