Your movement matters! Your thoughts, ideas, emotions they are all amazing, but don't mean squat unless you SQUATTIN'! If movement is the 1st layer architecture of your brain, you need that strong foundation to fully realize your peak emotional, psychological, and spiritual health.

Race horse, cart horse, or lead pony, we all have value. No matter what kind of horse you are, or your current location on the fitness journey, the BOLT coaches recognize your value to the STORM! But you gotta do your part too, we can't make you drink the water, we can't do the work for you! Finally, this sometimes get lost in the CrossFit affiliate world or world at large...just because you are fast at fitness or a great athlete does not necessarily make you a value to the STORM!
We are ready to guide you, pick you up and Giddy-Up! LETS GOOOO!

This week we sit down with 5am Thunderbird Michael Lowe, better known as Strict Mike. Mike is an independent thinker so I knew he would be a great interview. He tells his 100# weight-loss story and we dive into our thoughts on nutrition, fitness, and habits. If you have knee pain or issues you will definitely want to hear our discussion on Kneesovertoesguy! Finally, we talk the role of physical stress/fitness in supporting mental well being, balancing emotional stress, and making us more robust in every area of our life. We are building a BOLT Health Casino....what do you think all those LED lights are for?!?!?!
