Before I started in this community, I needed a walker from time-to-time. I have not needed this for 2 years. Athena made this much difference to me.

Here's a warm Monday welcome to new members @Shawn Baker and @Dan Hefferton did you move your body today? Tell us in the comments

Quick one for the group — Here's a throwback to when Dave flew to America and sat down with Tim from GruntStyle. One afternoon. No lawyers, no deadline extensions, no press conference. Just two guys focused on the same mission — fixing the veteran health crisis on both sides of the border — and they got it done. Meanwhile, Ottawa and Washington are still hashing out trade. Deadlines keep getting pushed. "Pending deals" keep pending. Make of that what you will. Point is — when you cut the posturing and focus on the actual mission, things move fast. That's the standard Dave holds himself to, and it's the standard this whole community runs on. American Grit Podcast w/ Dave Morrow

Let's have a warm welcome for @Ryan Groff and @Niurka Castaneda !

Monday. One task today: 10 minutes of Zone 2 walking — easy pace, nose-breathing the whole time. That's it. Not a workout. A signal to your nervous system that it's safe to recover. Most guys skip this because it feels too easy to count. It's not. Reply below when it's done.
