What's your excuse?

Injuries are speed bumps, not road blocks.

I was asked by the American made apparel company Oscar Mike to take some pictures in their gear and provide them with an example workout that they could post for their recurring, "On the Move Wednesday" posts.  It meant a lot to me, in large part because just nine months ago I had all but decided that my days in the gym were numbered.  My left knee, which had been surgically repaired a bit over a year prior, was once again a mess.  I needed a bone graft in my tibia, a new ACL and the cartilage in the knee was torn too badly to continue to be of any use.  I was told, once again, that I would never run, lift, or conduct myself in a generally badass manner ever again. 

Lucky for me, doctor's can be wrong (and they seem to underestimate my ability to self medicate with vodka)

An important part of becoming an Archetype is pushing yourself to do the very things most people don't think you can.  This afternoon, I'll be popping a few motrin and heading to the gym.  You can too... so what's your excuse again?
