OVERALL RATING
Lifting is my instant vacation..... Very rare that I will spend more than a solid 40 minutes in the gym per day.....I am a solid believer in quality over quantity and if you show up with your mental game in check, head down, focus strong and just do what the hell you came to do- you DON'T need to spend hours lifting. Today was an exception for me- whenever I travel I always love to find little local gyms to play in, where I can go and do my thing in the comfort of the one place that I never feel out of place, where judgement doesn't lurk and chasing extraordinary is welcomed....Every once in a while you luck out and find that exact place lives and breathes everything you love about lifting...a little raw, a little rough, rugid and dirty with pictures of the greats like Arnold and Frank staring you right in the face with each rep, with old school iron to play with and an environment that screams 'LIV BIG'. I got lost for hours, first attacking my delts and then my quads. I could have stayed all day and can't wait to go back tomorrow and the next and the next. Huge shout out to the staff member who was willing to give me access on the days it is not open. If you are ever in Colorado Springs it would be a disservice to yourself not to check this place out #ElevationFitness I took this vacation to clear my mind before I make some BIG decisions about what my next challenge will be....for some that means taking a break from the daily routine, resting, relaxing, recharging......for me it means taking advantage of the things I love to do best that sometimes take a back burner to other things I love to do best during everyday life. #alittlecalmbeforethestorm #chasinglife #LIVBIG #absintheresomewhere #thicklife #murves
