HASHTAG #BATTLE611

I’ve always been open and honest about my journey with diabetes. It’s been an up and down journey over the past 9 years since I was officially diagnosed. Honestly a lot more down moments than up and today was another really down moment.
Today I’m starting back on all my meds after being taken off of them in March. It definitely hurts and stings deeply to keep going on this roller coaster. It makes me feel like I’ve failed and that I’m letting people down who support me. I know that’s not really true but that’s where my mind goes. On top of that, not only are my sugar levels elevated, but my weight has gone up a lot as well.
There has been something though that I’ve ignored while trying to overcome diabetes and that is my depression. Diabetes and depression definitely feed off of each other, one being able to cause the other and make it worse. It also makes it much harder to stick to something, like a meal plan, when depression hits. And it hits often and hard. Today I took a step and I’m starting to treat that as well for the first time.
Depression is nothing to play with. It won’t just go away. If you suffer from it, definitely go see a doctor about it and talk about options to deal with it and manage it. I’ve waited way too long to do something about it but I’m determined to overcome my diabetes and be able to manage my depression no matter what is going on. I can’t get one under control without getting them both under control. The last three year roller coaster I’ve been on proves that.

I feel VERY lucky to be surrounded by very supportive family and friends that love me regardless. I’m lucky that I was introduced to a trainer and now friend who wants nothing more than to see me succeed. I’m honestly lucky to have the support that I do. I’m still really down but I will be ok. It will just take a little time for me to process everything I’m feeling at the moment.
Thanks for the support though throughout my journey with diabetes and depression. I’ve overcome before so I know I can do it again. All I know though is that me and a few of my rowdy friends are going after 2019 with everything we have!! It will be a sight to see!!

#MedalMonday
2X Trifecta Goal Achieved on Saturday!
Fort Benning Sprint 4/14/18
Fort Carson Sprint 5/6/18
Utah Super 7/28/18
Colorado Beast 8/18/18
Nashville Super 9/23/18
Central Florida Beast 12/8/18
I could talk about the struggles and improvements. The battles with having bronchitis 3 times. But what I am taking away from reaching this goal I set from this year are all the new relationships I've formed. There was hand holding and HUGS. So many hugs. High fives and fist bumps. I have acquired more family and I can't wait to see what 2019 will bring.

Stairway to Sparta... I've always needed some help getting up the wall to climb that stairway. This weekend, I didn't need any help at all.

Central Florida Beast with @thegiveteam and @operationenduringwarrior . We couldn't have asked for better weather. I made new friends. I took my turn carrying our burdens. Still can't collect all my thoughts and not sure I'll share everything, but this was the perfect way to end my race season this year.

#cajuncountryrun was wet, cold, & ankle to mid-shin deep water the entire trail. But we had a blast and would do it all over again. I took home 1st in my AG, 4th over all, and won a 6 pack of Shiner Holiday Cheer for costume. #rainorshine #morelikehighknees10k #mysocksaintwhitenomore #earnedthatbeer

Clean Race~6th in age~2x trifecta. Not a bad way to end my #spartanrace year. •

#flashbackfriday to last year’s Central Florida Spartan. I’ll be wrapping up the race season again with this race. This year’s race season has had a lot of ups and downs but I’m looking to finish strong and have a ton of fun out there tomorrow and Sunday, and looking forward to getting to the off season and get back to improving on weaknesses and building on strengths 💪🏻😁 #spartanrace #endoftheraceseason #dunkwall #ocr #battle611 #altraredteam #teampowersystems #teamcaterpy #legendbornesquad #hshive #ocruntillifemakessense #mudmonster

Repost from @nathanbeisser Another killer workout with my Bash Brother @danielbritt7 today at Dutchtown High School! We did a bleacher circuit that involved running a lap around the track, up and down the bleachers until you reach an opening where there would be an exercise station. Do the exercise then it’s back to the bleachers. Finish each round with a 200m farmers carry that used Brute Force kettlebells that we’re attached to GripSling straps!
The rain caught up with us so we had to improvise a bit. You can see what we did in the video. We used @powersystems slam balls, a heavy rope for jump ropes, @bruteforcesandbags , and @gripsling straps! Daniel was also rocking his @legendborne jersey, which @team.rescue.and.restore currently have some designed and will be made in the VERY NEAR FUTURE!

Thanks Daniel for the support not just today but always! You’ve been a huge influence and motivator for me and I can’t say thank you enough! I’m not thanking you for the workout just yet though, that was crazy!! #teamRescueandRestore #DefeatYourGoliath #battle611 #armorup #fightingdiabetes

Brute Force Training #REDWOD DONE. Felt fitting to wear my @legendborne OEW jersey today for this workout. It’s just been a mentally exhausting weekend for me. I tried to push through but ended up taking some stress out on my sandbag at the end of the workout. 🤷🏻‍♂️ @bruteforcesandbags

ca·pa·ble. /ˈkāpəb(ə)l/ adjective
1. having the ability, fitness, or quality necessary to do or achieve a specified thing.
2. able to achieve efficiently whatever one has to do; competent.

It's been a long fight with my inner demons. I had someone that I loved and trusted that had manipulated me into believing I could not take care of myself and I could not achieve the things I dreamed of. I've worked hard. I've had set backs, but I never quit.
Yesterday, I planned to go to open gym and just work on my rope climb technique, expecting to still get stuck about half way. Instead I went right up the rope, not once but THREE times. So I decided to do the workout my two buddies were doing. I ended up doing another first... I lifted more than I weigh doing a trap bar deadlift!
I still have work to do. I set bigger goals every time I crush one. I will be better!!
BE COURAGEOUS. BE STRONG. GIVE MORE.

Got in a yoga session this morning with @yoga_with_brandi before going lift heavy sh$t today at @virtuestrength !! I got to work out with my Virtue squad @danielbritt7 and @howienjoylife !! It’s definitely always a good time regardless of how crazy of a workout we ask Luke Atchley to put together for us!! I always appreciate the unintentional ab workout we get in from laughing!! Today I did 315 lb trap bar deadlifts, 35 lb one arm shoulder presses, 255 lb trap bar farmers carry and 70 lb reverse lunges! A lot of weight with a lot of laughter with some awesome people! Definitely lifted the spirits today!! Thanks y’all!
