COT:
Reminder to all men to not get jaded and feel like we’ve seen it all and done it all. Encouraged to try to see wonder in everyday things and try something new. My Son convinced me to drive him to Peach Tree City, GA to see an airshow where the F-22 Raptor Demo Team was performing. I really did not want to go, but I wanted to give my Son the experience he wanted. It was an astounding demonstration of the capabilities of that aircraft. It reminded me of my love of aviation and planes fueled by adolescent memories of Top Gun, Iron Eagle, Firebirds, and other stupid movies that haven’t aged well. Be positive Guys and remember your Kids still have things to learn from you.

THE THANG:
Mosey to The Island

(1) 7 Off-Ramps
– Going around the Island counter-clockwise, there are 7 off-ramps / sidewalks to your right
– At each point of contact you’ll rock one of our Xs for today
– Order: Curls, Chest / shoulder presses, flutter kicks, merkins, LBCs, SSH, squats
– You’ll see a cone at the entrance of each of these off-ramps
– Every off-ramp = 7 reps of the exercise on a 1-count (2 for flutter kicks)
– Execute 1 X, and then take a lap around the island
– Then you’ll complete off-ramp 1 again, and then off-ramp 2, then take a lap
– Rinse and repeat this – until you complete all 7 Xs
– 1 (lap), 1 + 2 (lap), 1 + 2 + 3 (lap) – adding another off-ramp each time

(2) 7s Up
– Murder Bunny 7x with your rock – THIS IS A MOVEMENT, NOT AN EXERCISE 😉
– Execute 10 flutter kicks + 10 LBCs
– Rinse and repeat until you get to turn 1 (called an audible halfway up because these suck
– @ turn 1 = bear hug carry your rock 7 paces, but this time instead of flutter kicks + LBCs, do 10 squats and 10 merkins
– Rinse and repeat until you get to turn 2
– @ turn 2 = carry your rock to the top of Cardiac Hill, and somewhere in between – knock out 50 SSH and 50 curls

COT:
-The problem is we tend to act on what we believe even when what we believe isn’t anything we should. (Read Romans 7:14-21 to hear Paul talk about this) As a result, buying into the one thing becomes difficult because we’ve unfortunately bought into too many others — and more often than not those “things” muddle our thinking, misguide our actions, and sidetrack our success.” — from “The One Thing” by Gary Kelly
