    Michael’s Message – The Best Drug

    - by Nick Seitz

    Can you imagine if there was a TV commercial for the drug endorphin? Slow uplifting music playing in the background while two people lay exhausted on a track enjoying the euphoric feeling of endorphins. Then images are shown of these same people going about their day, having success in many areas and being just a tad more upbeat than those around them. And no scary side effects at the end. It is an accurate picture that more need to experience, daily.

    Michael’s Message – Merry Christmas

    - by Nick Seitz

    I thought of several topics for today’s message but all seemed trivial to simply saying Merry Christmas.  During the busyness of the season, all of us at Endorphin Fitness hope that you take a moment – either during a workout, with family, or in just he stillness of a morning – and reflect on the year.

    Michael’s Message – Without Fear

    - by Nick Seitz

    The article shares the story of Parker Stinson’s recent performance at the USATF Marathon Championships, his debut marathon at 24 years old. Instead of running a safe race, Stinson went off the front leading the race for 22 miles at a pace that was faster than Galen Rupp’s Olympic Trials Marathon through the first 20 miles

    Michael’s Message – Why You Should Seek Failure

    - by Nick Seitz

As a human race, I believe we handle failure more poorly than we have in the past. Be it that we live more public lives due to social media, shelter our kids a bit more, or today’s pressures to succeed are just greater, we are not coping with disappointments as well as our predecessors did. This trend must change.
