Bearing Our Burdens

THE SCENE: Warm and steamy mid-70s (great for generating sweat)

WARM-O-RAMA:
A plethora of SSHs, Merkins, Tempo Squats, Tie Fighters, and Grady Corns; A quick meander and mosey to the CMU pile and the pillars of the church

THA-THANG:

Dora-style load bearing… battle-buddies select a pillar of pain and station their CMUs for a sweet sweat sesh; HIM 1 works through reps at pillar while HIM 2 moves 1 or 2 CMUs to the center of the parking lot; After running back to swap, HIM 2 continues the reps while HIM 1 goes to gather the load and returns it to the pillar;  Rinse and repeat while moving through the exercises and reps collectively.

Exercise 1: 300 reps of Wall Sit Grady Corns

Exercise 2: 200 reps of CMU Squat Thrusters

Exercise 3: 100 reps of CMU Alternating Merkins

Exercise 4: 50 Blockees

On the way back to the CMU pile we stopped to load the dock; Each HIM moved their CMU on to the dock, jumped up on the dock, carried their CMU down the steps; Each worked in 2 reps; Waxjob inspired many to Rifle Carry Hold while waiting to load the dock.

MARY:

After dropping off our CMUs and a steady mosey back to the AO; the PAX enjoyed the great tradition of burpees for broken CMUs – fortunately we only had 1 block broken – so we did 10 burpees OYO

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
16 HIMs walked away huffing and sweaty…. no FNGs

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Galations 6:2-3 NLT… “Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ.  If you think you are too important to help someone, you are only fooling yourself.  You are not that important.”

Expect the unexpected.  Life is full of challenges and burdens that sometimes we create ourselves.  The F3 PAX is here to help and will gladly help carry your burdens as men… but you have to make your need known. I love these men and would do anything to help any one of them.

Convergence coming on July 2nd.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Q celebrating birthday and wanted to reviewed Ezekiel 22:30. The context is the Sins of Israel, but the verse mentions the Lord “searching for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap…”. The text is directed at the Wrath of God, however the words struck me with vision 180 degrees as to what we should be in this life. F3 has been an example for me of good men who are brothers and lock shields to stand in the gap to keep evil at bay and look to God to guide our thoughts, our words, our steps and our hands to further His Will.
