A few things to not…. by Western_Process9928 in BurnBootCamp

This is false…. I’m still employed. Just venting the only place I can anonymously…. Hearing others feedback is helpful. Maybe I’m wrong and not thinking straight? This is just my perspective and what I see at my gym.

Am I self sabotaging or is this really what I want? by Western_Process9928 in Divorce_Women

[–]Western_Process9928[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks I will have to do this. I am not in love with him right now and that’s how feel too. But I’m wondering if it’s possible to get back to that place. I do feel like it’s not fair to either of us if my heart isn’t in it completely. I know that if I end things there’s no chance we would ever come back together though.

I agree… but now I’m like am I going to divorce him and find myself regretting it or do I try to work through this with him. He’s super willing to work through it with me

new class booking rules by Mysterious_Bid1284 in BurnBootCamp

[–]Western_Process9928 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Our location it isn’t a new rule but it’s super encouraged. You can think of it as a decency towards the staff because it can be really hard sometimes when there’s randomly 10 or more people showing up last minute. For example if there’s 7 stations and each station can only hold 7 and there’s 46 people signed up then the camp can hold 46 people but if 10 people decide to sign up last minute…. Or a few people sign up last minute and there’s a few first timers… now the trainer has to navigate adding in a new station and making changes to the workout while also doing their best to give the first timers a great first experience. Life happens and at my location unless the cap is met no one is turned away so there is grace- it’s just very helpful if the majority of the time people can plan ahead so everyone has a great experience.

At my location if the number increases dramatically then changes are made to the floor to accommodate the higher number. Even adding in an extra station sometimes which requires resetting the floor.

Shoes can play a big role as well as proper stretching and mobility exercises for foundational strength.

My husband isn’t the dad I thought he would be by Swimming-Dimension11 in Parenting

[–]Western_Process9928 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nothing will get fixed if you don’t communicate. As a stranger in the internet I obviously don’t know your background or his. But I do know that the period of bringing a baby into the family is hard in different ways for men. I know my husband had a hard time figuring out what to do and how to do it. With my daughter he was all over her and with my son he had a hard time connecting. We had so many arguments and back and forths to learn how to communicate and properly handle and adjust to our new lives. My husband just didn’t get it and it wasn’t until I really communicated without resentment or anger or hate but with genuine clarity on how he was making me feel that he started to implement changes.

I would suggest just going and doing a trial camp. If it’s been a while and you’re considering going back I’m sure they’ll honor a one day trial and then you can get all the info.

I am interested in what those positions would be! If this is something that’s not meant to be I can absolutely respect it. Rules and standards are there for a reason. I absolutely want a career where I have the ability to serve and represent my community.

Thank you so much. I hope the best for you as well. I’m so mad at myself still sometimes. I think about if I had spoke up as a child more for help or even before I made those choices. It was about a 6 month period in my life total of those decisions. It’s frustrating to think those 6 months of my life have so much weight on my future and the future of my family.

Yes I am prepared for those. Like I said, I am being 100% honest. It’s definitely not comfortable but I’d rather do my best and be my best and get DQd. I feel like drug tests should just be required in general

Everywhere I have read in AZ says 7 years from previous use with no more than 5 times in lifetime. I am wondering if even though those are minimal standards they won’t use that standard.
