Formed 7 groups.  One member ran with a cinder block across the parking lot, completed a burpee, then returned the cinder block to the next in line. After passing off the concrete block, the runner then sprinted up the hill behind the parking lot before returning to the line.  All PAX not running did squats, crunches, mountain climbers and Al Gores while waiting to run.

Rinse and repeat 2x.

P-nut reminded everyone that time is a precious commodity. Think about the power of 60 seconds and what you can do for someone in a minute. In one minute you can call or text a friend that’s struggling, call your parents and thank them for bringing you life, read a book to your child/niece/nephew. Most importantly, we can spend a minute in prayer for someone in need.

P-nut prayed us out.

“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭9:24-27‬ ‭

Each day we talk about what it looks like to be a HIM (High Impact Man) to our wives, fiancés, girlfriends, kids, family and coworkers. Even more so, being a HIM completely changes our stature as men and the way we live our lives. When thinking about becoming a better HIM each day I wanted to be reminded of who we are as men. The scripture was Romans 5: 6-10, with the focus being on this: “ While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly…While we were still sinners, Christ died for us…”

As men, we have to remember who the true HIM is in our lives. We are weak sinners who have an incredible god. Through his blood we can go out each day and become better HIMs in his name. This weekend focus on the true HIM and there you will find your strength.

Ephesians 6:13-17 Talks about putting the full armor of God under to protect against the evil one. The Sword of the Spirit, Breastplate of Righteousness, Helmet of Salvation, Shield of Faith, Belt of Truth, and the Sandals of the Gospel of Peace. As we each put on this armor and fight evil as HIMs. We are apart of a special community that allows us to do that and to look after each other and fight for one another as well!

MOLESKIN
The PAX was eager for a unique Bandwagon Beatdown as we went through the Ring of Fire today. The PAX was forgiving as the original plan for the Ring of Fire was altered because of the weather. Wind and Rain made it hard for the exercise cards to stay in their correct places. Therefore, the PAX completed each exercise of the Ring of Fire together! Spirits were high and the PAX always leaves everyone feeling encouraged.

This was a cardio buffet for the PAX. Spirits were high with the Billy Zane experience…coupled with the interesting reality of having an M infiltrate the group. Queen B kicked our fannies.

Lots of spirited mumblechatter.
