Focus on the small things.  The small things are happening every second.  Don’t over complicate what we are here to do.  1 Corinthians 13:13

Simple. Effective. Boring

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

SSH x 15, CP x 5, ISW x 10, move to the baseline for 20 Rocky Balboas on the curb, jog to other side, 15 RBs, karaoke, 10 RBs, karaoke back, 5 RBs, high knee skip back.
THA-THANG:
4 corners workout.  At each corner of the AO is an exercise in chalk.  Do 15 reps and move to the next corner.  Those exercises are: Merkins, Squats, Monkey Humpers and American Hammers.  After each full rotation, run Baby Everest and back.  Drop one rep with each Rotation until you get to one rep.

Or, until the Q gets bored [pro tip for QICs: if you are doing something monotonous for many minutes, bring music!].

Run to Cardiac after 4 rounds at the AO.  Continue reps, with one exercise at the top, bottom and each turn.  4 more rounds of the exerises.

Next, run from Cardiac to the Dragon for a modified Route 66, but with 7 stops instead of 11 (Route 28?).  Do all 4 of the exercises at each stop,  ending at the top of the Dragon after 7 stops.  So, 480 total reps done.  Good work!

Proverbs 16:24

Remember that God has a plan for us.  We can’t do it on our own.  Give things to him and watch our tongue and how we handle what life throws at us.

Bumps and blocks

THE SCENE: Clear skies, 37 degrees, perfect for a beat down
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER : 

WARM-O-RAMA:
SSH, high knees and butt kickers.  Did some plank poses, downward dog and 10 tempo Merkins.  Then did some Tie Fighters and was ready to roll out of the AO, but then the originator of the Tie Fighter lived up to his name and exited the scene for a few minutes.  Out of deference to Code Brown, we hung around awhile and did some Rocky Balboas, Super Marios and bear crawl 360 at the AO. Then we headed out.
THA-THANG:

  • Bump your partner – Partner up with one CMU.  Make your way up the tail of the dragon to the Coliseum.  One partner goes ahead with the block and the other does 5 burpees or 10 merkins then runs to catch partner, take the CMU and go ahead while the other partner does 5 burpees or 10 merkins and so on until you both reach the Coliseum.
  • One partner does AMRAP CMU exercises while the other partner completes a lap around the oval in front of the Admin building. Thrusters, Wood Choppers, Block Swings, Up and Over Merkins, Lying Lat Raise, Alternating Lunges, Curl/Press.  There were others planned but we ran out of time.
  • Bump your partner back to the AO.

Jesus didn’t wait for us to do this or do that before he sacrificed himself for us.  Let’s not wait for others to do this or do that before we reach out to them, forgive, help out, serve. Take the initiative.  While we were yet sinners, He died for us.
MOLESKIN:
That was a pretty exhausting workout.  Shoutout to @Woodshack for teaching me the cmu bump a few years ago.  A great way to move a cmu!
