Metric Workout #1

(Every man will need 1 CMU)

Set a timer for 30 minutes.
Complete as many cumulative reps as you can in that time.

The following list of exercises are performed in sets of 25 reps. After completing a set of 25 reps, put down your CMU, run 25 yards, do 2 burpees, return to your CMU, and continue.

 

Here are the exercises:

– 150 curls
– 125 heavy squats
– 100 OHP
– 75 CMU swings
– 50 Thrusters
– 25 Blockees

When you finish the Blockees, start back at the top with curls.

 

It will look like this:

25 curls → 25 yard run → 2 burpees → 25 yard run → 25 curls…repeat until 150 curls are finished, then switch to squats…etc.

Once through the entire circuit is 525 reps (burpees do not count toward total).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Essentialism is fundamentally about designing and taking control of your life. The same amount of energy, when directed purposefully, can bring you much closer to your goal. Know the right things you must do, reject everything else and direct your time and energy to create the biggest impact where it matters.

We choose how to spend our time and energy. 2) Almost everything is noise and very few things are exceptionally valuable. 3) We can’t have it all or do it all.

Phillipians 4:8 – Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

I want to be the man, husband, and dad my boys look at and go ‘Man if I could do that every day that would be a great life.’ I want my girls to grow up and go, ‘I love that my dad treats my mom like that and that’s the kind of husband I want to marry.'” – Buzz Williams, Texas A&M Basketball Coach

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I recently cleaned out my closets and donated many items.  It was the inspiration to wear some of the “GEMS” I rediscovered when I was cleaning to the workout this morning.  We talked about the importance of donating some of the things that we are not using to others who could put them to use.  In addition, I asked that we consider to be vulnerable and share our struggles as well as our experiences.  Others in the group may find value in the struggles and experiences we share.  We build a community and bonds when we share these experiences, and as men we sometimes hoard our feelings and emotions, and this is a safe space to share them.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Reflecting on encouragement from Jesus in Matthew 7 to remove the log in our own eye to better serve our brothers who need help with a speck in theirs… encouraged the PAX to set goals, share them with others, and then measure their success or failure to achieve.  We all need to strive to progress in our fitness, fellowship, and faith and we all need accountability to help us along the way.
