A LEGIT Result-- Jonathan Samford

A LEGIT RESULT

JONATHAN SAMFORD 

Jonathan SamFord AKA BALDHAWK is not a big "look at me" guy but his accomplishments, and work ethic, deserve a closer look. Jonathan came into LEGIT class 2 1/2 months ago. His max shoulder to overhead was 115# and his max power clean was 135#. Every month in LEGIT we test "GRACE"which is 30 Clean n Jerks for time @ 135# with a 8min CAP. Yesterday was our 3rd attempt through this WOD and Jonathan completed it 7:48RX. Now, lets put this into perspective... 2 1/2 months ago he couldn't lift 135# from ground to overhead one time. Yesterday, not only did he do it, but he did it 30X's and under 8mins!!! You talk about gaining some STRENGTH...Now thats LEGIT!!

LEGIT Strength is a mind set-

If you don't come in with the mentality that your about to get better and leave it all out in the box then your wasting your time. We lift heavy loads for over a hour in variety of ways, being mentally tough is a crucial attribute to becoming a Stronger you. You can't afford a bad day with only 8 sessions. Every class is a huge step in becoming a Stronger athlete. Jonathan's mind has always been right on. He wants to be better, he wants to be Stronger, he takes coaching and applies it to his WODs, and has benefitted greatly from it. Above is the 145# Stone. First week of LEGIT he couldn't pick it up once. He didn't get down on himself, he continued to work. At the last benchmark he lifted it ground to shoulder 7 times under 90sec. Awesome to see you keep getting better every month. Keep doing work Sir!!  

Disability??

Above is South African 400m runner Oscar Pistorious. He runs on 2 prosthetic legs and competed in the Landon Olympics in the 400m Sprint and mile Relay. Im not a big fan of these corny sayings and FB posts like this but this one really hit home for me. This man has tremendous heart and charactor not to mention he is the sixth fastest man on the planet at 400m. Unbelievable what he is able to accomplish with the disability he has.

If you wanna see some amazing wildlife and beautiful scenery take a trip to Yellowstone. I promise you, you won't be disappointed. Also, check my facebook page for some of the other sweet pics.
