CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
[Jesus] said to the sea, “Quiet! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was great calm. Mark 4:39

Life is chaos; there are always storms either brewing or surrounding us, metaphoric waves and rains that can lead us to fear. Sometimes, the miracle is that the Lord calms the storm that is all around us; but sometimes, it’s that the Lord calms the storm within us. We only need trust, hold on, wait. With the help of God, our peace and center, we will weather any storm.

This was a simple workout in design, difficult in practice.

We warmed up and did S L O W (the correct way) cherry pickers, and a few other things before grabbing our bags, and additional sandbags and kettle bells and went to MOTO hill. At the top of the hill, we set the heavy things down and did a set of 20 Monkey Humpers in Cadence at the entrance to the West Side Y. We picked up our heavy things, and went back down the hill.

I explained the Ruck Tabata, which was 6 stations, for 1 minute each, 15 seconds in between stations for a total of 6 times. We were encouraged to wear a vest or ruck at 20-30lbs, then we had weight options at each station if you wanted to dial up the workout. The statins were as follows:
Sandbag Thrusters
Merkins
Sissy Squats
Curls
Good Mornings
Rest

The total elasped time of the above was about 45 minutes, so another trip up Moto hill was in order, to revisit Monkey Humpers and the entrance where we bumped into Swimmies.

We then had a COT talking about the amazing COT that Commission shared on Friday focused on 1 Kings 19:19-21.

Where in your life do you need to be as committed as Elisha?
