00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.890
Hi, I'm Jay.

00:00:01.220 --> 00:00:03.230
Let me tell you why I built Strong Hour,

00:00:03.290 --> 00:00:04.820
because I built it for me first.

00:00:05.110 --> 00:00:06.590
I'm not a trainer or a doctor.

00:00:06.880 --> 00:00:08.540
I'm the person who kept starting over.

00:00:08.850 --> 00:00:11.020
I'd get going, then life would get loud,

00:00:11.200 --> 00:00:12.620
and the routine would fall apart.

00:00:12.840 --> 00:00:14.430
Then I'd wait for a perfect week to

00:00:14.500 --> 00:00:15.930
restart, and it never came.

00:00:16.140 --> 00:00:17.470
Here's what I finally understood.

00:00:17.690 --> 00:00:19.600
Falling off isn't a character flaw.

00:00:19.880 --> 00:00:21.860
It's that most plans are built for one

00:00:21.900 --> 00:00:24.160
speed, as if every week is a perfect

00:00:24.200 --> 00:00:24.430
week.

00:00:24.630 --> 00:00:26.740
There's no plan for the busy season, and

00:00:26.860 --> 00:00:28.600
no way back in after you miss.

00:00:28.770 --> 00:00:31.060
So Strong Hour is one live hour a week,

00:00:31.350 --> 00:00:33.770
at the same time, with a small room that

00:00:33.810 --> 00:00:34.400
expects you.

00:00:34.730 --> 00:00:36.760
You set three commitments out loud.

00:00:36.950 --> 00:00:38.990
When life gets loud, you shrink them to

00:00:39.070 --> 00:00:40.310
a version that still counts.

00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:42.780
And when you go quiet, someone notices

00:00:42.820 --> 00:00:44.630
before a quiet week becomes a lost

00:00:44.670 --> 00:00:45.060
season.

00:00:45.260 --> 00:00:45.770
That's it.

00:00:46.100 --> 00:00:48.660
One hour, three commitments, a room that

00:00:48.710 --> 00:00:49.060
holds.

00:00:49.310 --> 00:00:51.390
It's the room I needed, and now my own

00:00:51.440 --> 00:00:52.800
kids get to watch me stay in it.
