It means a lot to me when members tell me how much they appreciate the community we have built at Empower. Thanks to you for helping us build something extra special on Vancouver’s West Side. Thanks for opening your arms to all the people searching for a family and a place they can call their home!
In the old days Music Man and Big Cat battled for the mantle of Empower’s heaviest front squat. It was Big Cat who prevailed with an Empower record of 305lbs (though there are unverified rumours that Dangers has secretly broken that record). Now with Bobo having recently tied the Empower front squat record, it is the perfect time for Big Cat to retire, still officially at the top and undefeated.
There’s a new sheriff in town. Well, actually, it’s the same old sheriff but he’s got some new plans. You will want to read through this whole blog post to make sure you do not miss any important pieces!
No one likes being the last one done the workout. But sometimes it happens. We’ve all been there. It’s one thing if you are in the gym grinding out your last few reps. At least there you have your friends to cheer you on and shout encouragement as you struggle through to the finish with your last reserves of strength. But what about when the workout ends with a run? How do you find the will to push that final lap when all the other runners have already returned and are now happily chatting, stretching and cooling down? It is a long, lonely run with little incentive to exert your last effort.
