DRS STRONG WEEK 70: WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL EMPOWERED? AND HOW DO YOU FEED IT?
Rosario Rios Aguilar • Jan 25, 2016
""You can try hard and feel good about yourself. You can do the best you can and feel EMPOWERED.""
This week is all about finding what makes you feel empowered and feeding it to the max. That fuel is what gets you through a workout or a challenging day in life. We want to be able to feed ourselves positive things to not just drag through our workouts but to the best we can in them.
How do you feed what makes you feel empowered?
1. Find it first! Feeling empowered means to feel good, more confident, more in control of you.
Maybe finishing a workout you didn't think you can finish makes you feel good in all aspects so you have a more productive day at work. Maybe you just got out of relationship and training makes you gain confidence back. Maybe you just need the structure and discipline to follow a training regimen. Maybe seeing everyone else in the class and sharing the battlefield together makes you feel good about yourself. Whatever it is, cherish it and feed it.
2. Once you have one. Add another and another one and another until you have so many different reasons to feel empowered that a bad day or a bad workout can't derive you from it. And by the way there is never a bad workout, you can learn from it and at least you were doing something!
3. Share it with others!!! Influence others to feel the same and create that around you! =)
Check out what your coaches and some of your training buddies had to say!
This is the 4th week of The Chad Attack and I know the programming has been a mix of a habanero and a spicy jalapeño most days but all of you are adapting great and should feel way better than the first week of this cycle! Remember the CrossFit Open is around the corner so during those 5 weeks we will be testing all the hard work. I am looking into maxing out on 1 lift at the beginning of the week and doing the Open workout on Fridays during each class. It is an exciting time!! Expect the known and the unknown in the next couple of weeks :)
We have gotten great feedback on the blog these past couple of weeks, feel free to let me know a topic of interest and I would love to cover it. We will be releasing in the next couple of weeks how to build a foundation if you are new or semi new to fitness and how to keep it strong if you have been doing this for a while.
Stay Strong,
DRS Strong

Stay in the now, reinvent yourself into a better version that you liked in the past!
Why do we hesitate to do things we want to do? What makes us scared? We might never have the answers to a lot of questions, and believe me I love questions haha! But what I do know is that we are only here with an expiration date so why not go and seek adventure and do the things we are afraid of doing and trying. Anything worthwhile is both scary but yet super empowering. The thrill of doing something out of your comfort zone, outside of your circle, speaking in front of thousands, singing out loud, the saying dance like nobody is watching! so so true for all of us! Look at yourself in the mirror and appreciate every part of you. Dig deep in your own feeling and your own brain. Share the love of something with someone you choose. Read poems, do the photoshoot you have always wanted, sky dive ( never have I ever haha) Get in the gym and kick your butt! don't be afraid to be the last one of the class, it won't be for long! Talk on the phone more often, ask your crush on a beach walk :) anything that you always have wanted to do. LET'S GOOOOOO!!!! Stay Strong, DRS Strong! Coach RRA
