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
– What is one lie you’ve believed or bought into this week?

COT: In a book by Brene Brown, she tells a story about a time when she traveled a lot and her husband was at home many weekends alone handling the kids. One weekend while she was home, the got in a big fight and her husband said weekends were a lot easier when she wasn’t home. After the dust settled, they talked about that, and it turned out that when they were both home, they both had expectations for getting something (work, chores, whatever) done whereas when it was just him, he had no expectations for the weekend because he knew his full attention would be on handling the kids. I learned from that story and now my wife and I talk each Friday about what we each need from the weekend. Maybe it’s a family outing, or some alone time, or space to catch up on work, or whatever and we work together to ensure all the needs of the family are met that weekend. I’m sure it’s saved us from meeting fights and a lot of frustration!
