So I almost didn’t post this video. Took most of the week to overcome that feeling of inadequacy that sometimes sneaks into our heads and stops us from doing things. We put the work in, in silence, behind closed doors, afraid that if we allow people to look into what we’re doing they will point out all the imperfections. Truth is, this is real. Real isn’t perfect. I do what I can, when I can, how I can, every day. I’m inspired by incredible people that give me the energy and courage to keep going. And I really shouldn’t be ashamed of the journey I’m on to reach my goals. So, here it is. The work doesn’t always look as good as it feels, but it feels pretty amazing. #exercise #workout #fitness #fitspiration #motivation #fitsagram

Find yourself some supportive friends that will help you reach your goals. Paul Blackthorne and Emily Bett Rickards are training for the California May Day Fire Ride. These events are great for multiple reasons. First they benefit communities, whether it's to benefit those affected by wildfires, floods, hurricanes, diseases, there are countless fun challenges out there. In every community. Next, it brings people together in a beautiful way. And it's great for your body and soul. What causes are you engaged in? Is there a way to turn that into training motivation? Find your inspiration and get going. Go be amazing! https://www.instagram.com/p/BeV4-oSnz1S/

I hope you’re feeling the way I’m feeling this am @linzzmorgan like a damn superhero... (that’s been hit by a bus) @t3athletics trying to make us fall over. - Emily Bett IG Whoa ladies! I will be slowing this one down so we can see it better. Hang tight!! It's awesome stuff!

[skipsngiggles]

I need more sand in that bag so it doesn’t tip so easily, and I still have a lot of room for improvement, but feeling pretty good. Camo belt means I start sparring and I’m pretty excited for it. #likeagirl #workit #practicemakesperfect #Taekwondo #hitlikeagirl #boss #ownit #progress

Do what you can to get moving. As much as you can, however you can. Take that first step. It doesn't have to be perfect. You don't have to be a pro. It doesn't have to be pretty. Just move. Your future self will thank you.

When you don’t have a ship or a bus, you steer a #bosu. @PaulBlackthorne making it look painfully fun(?) & waking up Zoe in the wheel/mic drop process. The “I’m @thenotoriousmma Conor McGregor” #inspiration warrior cry....Stuff of legends. I love this bloody pirate. - Thomas Taylor Paul!!! That's freaking awesome!! Makes me want a bosu. Check out the gifs below for a better look at what you can do with them.

Combo o' the day. @ emilybett relaxing more and extending and stringing punches together better and better every week. HARD WORK + PASSION + CONSISTENCY = GUARANTEED IMPROVEMENT - Thomas Taylor (T3athletics) Wise words. 😘

[arrowfitgirls]

Yes!!

[arrowfitgirls]

Focus on what you can do to be the best version of yourself. Build your mind up, be positive, have confidence. Every goal is achieved in your mind before it's achieved in reality. Overcoming weaknesses, breaking through walls, building on your strengths. BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN AND YOU WILL

[arrowfitgirls]

From the department of tougher than it looks... - Stephen Amell Will he add that extra couple inches of mat there? Give it a try on flat ground first if you give it a go. This is a fun challenge.

Workouts with Tom Part One via IG Live via @amell-daily

[arrowfitgirls]

Thank you, @dmichellewrites for the other part of this workout pulled from Stephen's IG story. A few more to add to the circuit. They call it pizza bands, but I'm dubbing it the Rowdy Resistance circuit, because watching it makes me feel like gettin' Rowdy. It works for me haha.

If you can think of another awesome name for it let us know, head over to Tom's IG or twitter and comment on it.

Have fun with this one, get rowdy! 😄 work it!

[arrowfitgirls]

Pizza bands with T3Athletics - Stephen Amell This is a great full body workout. If you don't have the weights, go with resistance bands, or heck you can go with a bag of flour or potatoes, anything with a bit of weight that you can hold while doing these movements. I love functional fitness. You can modify to fit your level of need and what you have available to you. Now get up and get going! Have fun with it!

[arrowfitgirls]

“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.” -Muhammad Ali 🖕🏼#Functional #Fittness #Friday -Katie Cassidy Katie doesn’t share much regarding fitness posts, but when she does we get gems like this. Her choice of Muhammad Ali quote is perfect. She is all of us when we just don’t wanna but know if we want the results we have to put in the work. And showing off her awesome warrior tattoo completes the photo. You wanna know what Else Muhammad Ali said? “If your dreams don’t scare you, they aren’t big enough.” “If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it, then I can achieve it.” “Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.” You can throw in the towel, or you can use it to wipe the sweat off of your face and keep going.“ "Even the greatest was once a beginner. Don’t be afraid to take that first step.” “What you’re thinking is what you’re becoming.” “I am gonna show you how great I am.” Like Katie, we can all find inspiration from the Legendary Muhammad Ali. Whatever our goals may be, take the first step, keep moving, believe in yourself! You got this. You have the power to make it happen, if you want it bad enough. It won’t always come easy, it’s going to take some work, and discipline. It will be worth it. You got this. 😉

Been a while since I’ve posted on this challenge. Back in early September @t3athletics posted a challenge to do 500 pushups and 500 situps, see how fast you could get it done. My arms being super weak I set myself 25 minutes and tackled the task to see how much I could get done…which equated to 240 situps and 125 pushups at that time. I had done better than I thought and was encouraged that I could work up to it. Let’s do this!

Today, I told myself I was going to do 50/20 sets and wouldn’t quit until I hit the 500 situps. Took me just over 27 minutes. Getting there. Arms still weaker than I’d like but definitely getting stronger. Thanks for the challenge, Tom!

[arrowfitgirls]

Gettin it. Don't give up. Keep workin'. You got this.
