Sometimes the WOD is not even the most interesting thing on the whiteboard. The mind of GVM is one of the most intimidating things you could ever try to understand.

determination

Anthony Robles was born with one leg, but he did not let that deter him from participating in sports. What he has done in his athletic career is nothing short of amazing, he just finished 4th in the NCAA wrestling championships earning All-American honors. He also was a 2 time state champion in Arizona and runs an 8 minute mile…………..on crutches.

So what was it again you were saying about limitations?
