Windmills, GooseStep Touch, Fast Pinnapple Pickers, Squat Jumps, Burpees.
THA-THANG:

Each HIM grabs a CMU and some chalk and writes a 6×6 grid/table on the ground.   Column names are the exercises.  Row names are the round numbers.

  1. Merkins
  2. 4 count flutters
  3. Squats
  4. Push Press
  5. Star Crunches
  6. Iron Mikes

Do a maximum number of reps possible without pausing.  If you pause for more than one second then that is when you stop for that exercise. That is your failing point and number of reps to record with chalk in that box.  Then give yourself a small rest before beginning the next exercise until failure.

Do as many rounds as possible in the 25 minutes provided.

Listen.   Really Listen.  Don’t miss an opportunity.  It’s too easy to only hear the “loud” stuff.  Just as Elijah did in the mountain, listen for God’s whisper.

The first time (back on August 8th, 2018) we ran out of time at station 11. This time we made it to 14 when 6:07 timer went off.  We used the Mary time to get to the top with half the reps and only running in-between stations.  NEXT time we’ll probably just run in-between each station.  That would probably leave extra time for warm up and marry.  

MARY:

Mary, we don’t need no stinkin Mary, we’re too busy climbin a hill.

Integrity is doing the right thing.  Even when no one is watching. –C.S. Lewis

The Lord’s eyes are on the righteous and his ears are open to their prayers. But the Lord cannot tolerate those who do evil.  1 Peter 3:12

“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. Luke 16:10
