11th Hour Repeat

THE SCENE: Plenty warm to work up a good sweat. Mostly clear.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

I picked up this Q approximately 11 hours before it started, so… repeating last week’s Wednesday Q from JUCO. No HIMs overlapping…

SSH x20 IC
8ct Body Builders x10 IC
Tempo Merkins x10 IC
Tempo Squats x10 IC
Crabettes x15 IC

THA-THANG:
Mosey to the base of [fill in official name of hill upon decision].

Split into 2 teams. Each team has an identical pile of exercise cards.
One extra-large size die with numbers 1,2,3.
One team rolls the die. That’s the number of laps up the hill and around the rock.
While that team runs the laps, other team works through the pile until laps completed.
When entire team returns from laps, other team rolls.
When pile is complete, set up a cone as a counter and start again.
See how many times each team can work through the pile.
Pile exercises:
15 Merkins
15 4-ct Monkey Humpers
10 Iron Mikes (each leg)
10 Squat Jumps
10 Burpees
20 Flutter Kicks
15 Carolina Dry Docks
20 BBS
20 4-ct Mtn Climbers

Mosey back to the AO, not stopping halfway for 15 4-ct Monkey Humpers. No public road…

15x Side Crunch IC (each side)

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
16 HIMs – Twice the number as last time for this workout.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Don’t try to carry that dang thing by yourself!”. We’re trying to get the house ready to pack up. Lots of heavy things to lift and move. Sometimes I listen to that admonition from my M, sometimes I don’t (usually to my later regret). Whatever it is you’re trying to carry on your own, quit trying to carry that dang thing by yourself. Jesus said “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me.” He didn’t say “saddle” or “harness”. Those are for a single animal. The yoke is a shared burden. Two oxen work together. He’s not saying you should pick up his load instead of yours. He will pull alongside you, and teach you how to pull properly. He’s strong enough to pull any load.
MOLESKIN:
OK, we’re working on a name for the hill up to the rock… Stay tuned! Also, hybrid Coffeeteria and OTB weight workout at 10818 Sallings Rd this Saturday…

Ecclesiastes 4:9 •
“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor.”

When individuals work together, they can double their strength and get much more done as a team. They also reap the value of having worked in unison, thus creating harmony instead of disorder. Working as one people begins with the efforts of each person, as they work with another person.

• Proverbs 27:17•
“Iron sharpeneth iron; so man sharpens another.”

A team has checks and balances, one person watches the other one’s back. They help them if they falter or lose sight of the goal, just like in friendship. A good friend isn’t someone who always agrees with you, what you do, or what you say. A real friend is someone that is willing to challenge you, to be better as a person. A team player encourages his fellow team mates to be better players. Teamwork and friendship both work in very similar ways.

WARM-O-RAMA:
We did some SSH during the disclaimer to get warm, and then followed up with:

  • Little bit o’ this & that
  • 15 merkins
  • 15 windmills

THA-THANG:
The PAX moseyed over to a cone circuit. 5 cones were placed at three distances (Cone 1=short sprint, Cone 2=medium sprint, Cone 3=long sprint, Cone 4=medium sprint, Cone 5=short sprint).

Each cone had an exercise listed at its base (Cone 1 = BBS, Cone 2 = Carolina Dry Docks, Cone 3 = Squats, Cone 4 = Merkins, Cone 5 = American Hammers).

Pax sprinted to each cone and performed 5 reps of the listed exercise at that cone. In between Cones 3 and 4 we paused for sets of 7-ups with the pee rocks (curls, presses, tris with a heavy rock in ascending rep count from 1 to 7 and back down to 1).

Continue this patter, increasing rep count by 5 each time. Right before Mary we re-grouped at the start line for one last sprint to the long cone.

MARY:

  • Oblique Crunches x 10 IC, each side
  • Box Cutters x 20 IC
  • Flutter Kicks x 15 IC

Two FNGs today – great work PAX! Welcome to Twinkletoes and Peek-a-boo!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Take some time to review the words used in traditional wedding vows and really let them soak in. I was at a wedding with my 3 yo daughter this weekend and had to explain the ceremony to her curious mind. I found myself interpreting the wedding vows in ways that I probably didn’t consider 6 years prior when I repeated them to my bride (who is way out of my league). It really stood out to me that I am not always a good example of what those vows mean, even though I should be since I’m setting the example that she may use for her future husband one day.
MOLESKIN:
Felt good to be back with the PAX after two fartsacks in the last few days – thanks, guys!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

A simple truth: You don’t deserve forgiveness, grace or unconditional love.
Two thoughts:
1) For you guys who always feel unworthy, like you don’t deserve love or forgiveness – you’re right! You don’t…and neither do the rest of us, but it is freely offered and not yours to try to earn or pay for. Accept it with a grateful heart and feel the warmth and love of the one who bought it for you!
2) For you guys who have a hard time forgiving or letting go of things that have been perpetrated against you. If you don’t deserve the forgiveness and unconditional love that has been offered to you – you really don’t deserve to withhold those things from someone else. Choose to forgive and love the way it has been given to you – especially for folks who REALLY don’t deserve it.
Love God first, then everyone else. MOLESKIN
