JUCOtop Stargazers

THE SCENE: 66°, Dry and wonderful

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER: Delivered
WARM-O-RAMA:
Side Straddle hops, Mountain Climbers, Reach for the stars, let it hang, Cherry Pickers, some other stuff.  Booster mentioned doing stargazers, so we headed to the top of Juco to try it out.  Campus is too bright.
THA-THANG:
Grabbed some rocks after doing 25 dips.  Carried them to the base of Jucomajaro.  Did a min of exercise followed by a sprint up 2 lines, carrying our rock.

  • 1 min of burpees
  • 1 min of Imperial Walkers (It is May the Fourth)
  • 1 min of BBS
  • 1 min of Squats
  • 1 min of plank
  • 1 min of Flutter kicks
  • 1 min of Superman

Made the summit where we had a ring of fire, starting at 4 merkins.

Then we got 3.5 seconds of stargazers before we did some Hello Dolly.  Too many clouds to see stars anyway.

Stone Jenga was played.  We held Al Gore while building a pile of rocks.  We got to 7 rocks before it fell so 10-7=3… 3 burpees.  Well done.  Mosey back to return our rocks, do more dips, bear crawl across the street and back, 10 Dirkens, Duck walk to curb and 20 calf raises.

MARY:
Hello Dolly, Freddie Murcury, Superman and 10 Regular, 10 Wide and 10 Diamond merkins
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Psalm 18:  I love you, Oh Lord, My Strength

Looked at making sure the Lord is our strength, our deliverer and our Rock.   David, leading the victorious army didn’t find his strength in his self but from the Lord.  Make sure Jesus is the foundation of your strength.

Be praying for our F3 brothers we miss due to injury.  Especially Survivor, Spotter, 5k, Gump and others.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
May the 4th is tomorrow.  When watching the Original Trilogy, you think the story is about Luke, but after watching the Prequel Trilogy, you realize that the story is about Anakin.  A story of redemption.

Also, God laid on my heart this week to be aware of the legacy I’m leaving.  I shared the tale of Steve Jobs.  He built a huge company that changed the world, but within months of his death, Apple launched a product he said they’d never sell:  the iPad Mini.

Our legacy is much more affected by the people we influence throughout our lives.  Our children, wives, friends, coworkers, and others.  The values we invest in them and the fruit of the Spirit we bear around them will make a bigger impact than the work of our hands.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
CSAUP this Friday!  Family workout postponed to May 14th.

“always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 5:20 NIV

If you’re in the Bible study we’re on a 21 day gratitude journey. I love these. Not only is it a positive experience while you’re doing it, but when you go back and read through everything you’ve journaled, it’s pretty cool too.
Thank you gentlemen for challenging me! I have nothing but respect for you guys.

Traveling by BLIMPS

THE SCENE: Chilly; in the 40s. Great weather for a blimp ride.

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

  • Warmed up with some:
    • Abe Vigoda
    • Arm Circles forward/back
    • tempo squat
    • plank jacks

THA-THANG:

Travel to new campus building. Partner up and complete the following in pairs. One person does 10 of the main exercise while the other does the waiting exercise. Then they swap until 100 reps of the main exercise have been completed.

100 Merkin – Plank
100 LBC – Low Plank
100 Squat – Al Gore

Travel to Far end of Pond. Travel by BLIMP around the smaller pond loop.

  • Burpee x5
  • Lunge x10
  • Imperial Walker x15
  • Merkin x20
  • Plank Jack x25
  • Squat x30

Traveling by BLIMPS is slow as you can imagine. The Lunges, Imp Walker and squat with side step kept us slowly moving forward. Needless to say we didn’t make it around the loop.

Headed back toward the flag, stopping to do a modified Beast.

Completed 6 reps of LBC, squats, Werkin, American Hammer and Burpee. Started heading back toward the flag as time wound down.

MARY:
Finished it out with some Hello Dollies and Flutter Kicks.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Previously, I had talked about  the humility of Christ from Phil 2:5-7. His coming to earth to serve others and sacrifice of himself. (On so many levels)
That same passage continues and connects that humbleness of Jesus with God exalting him and giving him the name that is above every name. Lets look at the next few verses.

Phil 2:9-11

Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name. So that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

God has declared Jesus as synonymous with himself and given him his own name. One day there will be no choice but everyone will recognize the glory of God and bow.
