“Effort is only effort when it begins to hurt.” - José Ortega y Gassett
So I came across the quote above by José Ortega y Gassett and question that statement. Does anything pertaining to fitness and getting stronger have to hurt or be uncomfortable? Do results only come from blood, sweat and tears?
Share your experiences! Discuss!!
Whose this buff guy?!?! Rich is in the perfect ending position of the Kettlebell swing. The KB should be directly overhead and straight in the air with arms fully locked.
WOD
More kettlebell swings and pushups.. 
Complete 5 rounds for time of:
Sprint a 20 yds – 40 yds – 20 yds shuttle drill
8 Kettlebell Swings 2 Pood
16 Push Ups
- *For shuttle drill, start by sprinting 20 yards, change directions and sprint back 40 yards, change direction and sprint back 20 yards through original starting point. Perform 8 Kb swings and 16 push ups. Rest 1 minute and repeat…
- These should be ALL OUT EFFORTS! Thats why you get a 1 minute rest.
- *Rest 1 minute between rounds.
- Record all your scores on paper
- ONLY write your best and worst time on the whiteboard.

Yes, working on genuine pull-ups!
As for blood, sweat and tears. I think sweat is necessary as for the blood and tears – I’ve almost cried a couple of times. The willingness to push yourself farther than you think you can go is necessary and sometimes a little uncomfortable and always rewarding!
