Workout of the Day - The Beast Mode Smackdown

Today was an awesome day because I woke up with the mindset to make it as such! You know, it's funny how some folks just dread the fact that Monday is here and it's time to "get back to the grind". The feeling of starting the week from scratch only to wait till Friday comes around can make it seem as if the light at the end of the tunnel is far from being bright.

The way I see it - carry a flashlight and brighten things up now! To hell with the tunnel! It's time to get BEAST MODE and start climbing the mountain of GREATNESS today while making Monday a day of success!

With that being said, I demolished my workout of the day and felt so awesome that I felt like almost doing my "Handing My Own Ass On A Platter" workout! Note....I did say 'ALMOST'. HA!

Today's workout was pretty 'Beastly' to say the least, hence the name - "The Beast Mode Smackdown".

Check it out:
