When I was 14 I was obese. Only 5kg lighter than what I weigh today (85kg).
I remember my footy coach George McVeigh yelling in my ear while running up ‘heartbreak hill’...struggling for oxygen, heart about to jump out my throat, legs buckling and fighting that little voice in my head.
I’ve been back to that dark place many times since that day but yesterday’s session reminded me of that time in my life.
You get to a point where you zone out and go into your own little world. The music & noise in the room becomes near silent, your head feels like it’s on fire, legs are jelly, and you’re constantly gasping for a breath.
My sole focus was to do a job for my team. I had someone in my ear for the last part yesterday and it got me through just like my fat kid days at footy training back in Warwick.
These kind of sessions level you out, test your character and build resilience - what 98 GYM is all about.
Yesterday makes me want to work harder and get better. I want to be stronger!
I’ll put in the work and look forward to the next one with the 98 crew 🤜🏽🤛🏽
