THE THANG: Mosey to the rock. Do 18 merkins and 18 squats while enjoying the view and the 93F weather. Mosey on to the bottom of Pickett’s Charge and battle buddy up. Buddies alternate running the 3 hills (first 1, then 2, then all 3) of Pickett’s doing nickel, dime, quarter squats, while the other alternates between Merkins and Squats until failure
Mosey up to the Coliseum and do 9s at top and bottom, alternating between dips and American Hammers on a 4-count. Mosey back to the AO for 1-minute of LBCs.
COT: It’s never too late to change in life. Your current situation is not set in stone, and you don’t know what God’s plans are for you.

But for change to happen, you need to accept life has different seasons. You need to let go of what holds you back and step into the new. Trust in God and let him guide you forward.

Staying in the shade, sort of. Some battle buddy AMRAP rows, press, tricep extensions, squats, curls with alternating runs. Then some merkin, dips, calf raise mix. Finally some core work.

Be careful about quantification. Boiling anything down to a simple number can remove some much of the nuances of life. If you’re going to use metrics and data, know when you’re doing it, and always be mindful that it’s never as simple of a single number. And also, research has shown the more you measure by metrics alone the more likely people conduct unethical behavior.

“You are the sum of the 5 people you spend time with.

Show me your circle and I’ll show you your ceiling.

And if you’re the smartest and most successful person in the room….

It’s time to find a new room.

What an absolute honor to be in this room!!!

I’m a 🧽 “

Three things will last forever—Faith, hope, and love—the greatest of these is love.
