Prayers and Apples reader, Angela, has been one of my best friends for as long as I can remember…
And, over the course of all those years, this girl has watched the Rocky movies more times than I’ve watched Fraiser and The West Wing combined- which is really saying a lot (both about how much she loves Rocky and how awesome our friendship is, based on our DVD preferences alone! haha) :) So to say thanks to Ang for being so supportive, I decided to put together some Rocky Balboa-style fitness motivation to keep us all on our A-game during St. Patrick’s Day weekend!
…Prepare to get inspired! :)
Every champion was once a contender…
Nobody owes nobody nothin…
It ain’t about how hard you hit…
Nothing is real…
Going in one more round…
If you know what you’re worth…
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Sooo I am laying in bed having the hardest time getting up (I did a new workout class at my gym caled UXF and it was intense so… I’m a little sore this am! Lol)…. And then I hear my phone ding telling me I have a new e-mail. I check my e-mail to find this absolutely fantastic post! If Rocky doesn’t inspire ya to get outta bed nothing will! I am now enjoying a nice cup of coffee!:) Love ya Jess and thanks for making my day!! Sharing on Facebook now!!
I know! I started watching some Rocky YouTube clips when I was looking for pictures and it made me want to go run or lift something! lol :) Love you!
Love the inspiration. ESPECIALLY on a Fridsy Yo Angela!!!!
Happy Friday! :)
LOVE LOVE this! Balboa is one of my favorite movies! I am a huge Rocky fan… :) That is really one of my favorite scenes in that movie because every word is true. :)
Netflix doesn’t have the early movies.. I feel like watching a marathon now! lol :)
This is AWESOME, I love the quotes … Rocky Balboa is definitely this weekends guru for me. The first Rocky was the best for me, I remember rooting for the underdog and willing him to “make it”. I am feeling a Rocky movie-a-thon coming on too :)
I like the first one too… I need to find some place that rents it! By the way: just wrote a post for Tuesday about a workshop I think you’d like – don’t know if you’ll be able to travel, but if not I’m really going to try to go… so I’ll post tons of info! Talk more about it Tuesday ;)
oooh great, excited much I am !
Love all the motivation in here!!:)
Always good to get an extra dose of motivation on the weekend! :)
