"What is strong?"



I am loving the above. It's actually a commercial for Saucony, the popular running shoe brand, but it feels more like a short (very short) film. Am I right? It leaves me inspired. Not necessarily to run out and purchase a pair of Saucony shoes, rather, inspired to believe in the power of my own strength. It does exist. My strength is not a figment of my imagination or a wish forever unfulfilled. My strength is real. My strength is my truth. And it's mine, all mine.

It's mine when I lift weights.
It's mine when I run miles.
It's mine when I pedal faster.
It's mine when I sweat bullets.
It's mine when I hold planks.
It's mine when I stand tall.
It's mine when I smile big.
It's mine when I rest well.
It's mine when I take chances.

But most importantly, my strength is mine when I believe in its power. Because only then can the above statements be true.

Do you believe in the power of your strength?

I think you should.

Why?

Because I believe in you.
And I do believe you have a great deal of strength inside of you.

In and out of the gym.

Question: How do you find your strong? And what does it mean to you?
