The Board of Pain isn’t that hard. It isn’t completable in 45 minutes. But it ain’t about finishing, it’s about seeing how far you can go!
You:
– Show up
– Put forth the effort
– Share suffering amongst the PAX
– Build camaraderie
– Teach yourself that
– You can take on challenging tasks
– You will improve
– You accelerate when other men are striving alongside you
There are plenty of harder workouts. But the Board is doable by ALL MEN. Be present and try; that’s all it takes! You don’t have to get far; you just have to go.
How is it in our lives that we have a problem and the solution is the same? Be present and try
We ain’t getting it all done today, but today’s effort still matters!
