Social Distancing?

Jeff is unexpectedly home from Morehouse for the rest of the school year, taking classes online from home. Team members head back to "virtual school" this week after being off for the past few weeks. Everyone is being encouraged to avoid contact with Orange County mandating everyone "stay at home" unless necessary. Fortunately, assisting "loved ones" and children, and leaving home for fitness reasons, are all considered necessary.

Work-related travel is significantly limited, and people are either working SIGNIFICANTLY less or SIGNIFICANTLY more. The businesses open are primarily pharmacies and grocery stores. 

What's driving all this? The Coronavirus, COVID-19. It's spreads easily and can be deadly, especially to those most vulnerable (mainly the elderly and those with respiratory issues). People are scared, and society is locked down in a way not seen in my lifetime.

The Give Team has events on the calendar, but all that has taken a back seat to the needs of New Image Youth Center. Families have serious needs with many parents either losing hours or their jobs. Since kids aren't going to school, they aren't being fed. Schools are still offering food, but the kids need a way to get there. 

In the meantime, a handful of the guys are staying engaged. We've agreed to do THE GIVE TEAM 15 twice a day, the full routine in the morning at sunrise and the core-related routine in the evening at sunset. Momentum is magic, and to create momentum you need to MOVE. So The Give Team will live by our motto and give what we can. Check our Instagram account @thegiveteam to follow our workouts. Better yet, join in. Each of THE GIVE TEAM 15 sessions will be shown on Instagram Live.

SUNRISE is around 7:30am ET and SUNSET is around 7:15pm ET.
