Adversity, and perseverance and all these things can shape you. They can give you a value and a self-esteem that is priceless. -Scott Hamilton

I have a lot of respect for the kids that train at Steve's Club. They show up and work out. Despite the challenges they face on a daily basis, they don't carry around it around with them. They leave it behind and move forward. This is what overcoming adversity is all about. Not giving up and quitting which is the easy thing to do when things don't go one's way. These are the type of kids that succeed in life. The ones that overcome obtacles and let nothing or no body stand in their way. I'm proud to have the opportunity to coach these kids and look forward to seeing what the future holds for them.

CROSSFIT JOURNAL COVER STORY

MESSAGE FROM STEVE

  • The greatest discovery any outsider could make about Camden is it's overriding response to failure: If it didn’t work last year, do it AGAIN this year (and if possible do it MORE). Every year they pass more laws, hire more police, build more prisons, and sentence more offenders for longer periods-all without moving one inch closer to “ending” crime. If it didn’t work last year or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that, but you can be sure we’ll try it again this year, knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that it won’t work this year either. Every year they spend more money on schools, hoping to “fix” whatever’s wrong with them, and every year the schools remain stubbornly unfixed. Spending money didn’t work last year or the year before that or the year before that, but you can be sure we’ll try it again this year, knowing beyond shadow of a doubt that it won’t work this year either. Every year they try to make the criminals go away, and every year they remain with us. We couldn’t shoehorn these criminals back into the “the mainstream” last year or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that, but you can be sure we’ll try it again this year, knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that it won’t work this year either. Maybe its time to TRY something DIFFERENT. Afterall, IF Camden is saved, it will not be saved by old minds with new programs but by new minds with no programs at all. Much of my inspiration comes from Daniel Quinn in "Ishmael."
