Matt 11:28: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Christ is the giver of rest: physical rest, mental rest and most of all spiritual rest because when we trust Him, we can rest before God the Father clothed in Christ’s righteousness

B.O.M.

Winners Focus on Winning. Losers Focus on Winners.

How much better individuals could we be if we took the energy focused on others in envy and spent that time reflecting on ourselves? Do not compare yourself to others, focus on you bettering you. This will bleed into the men around us and to those we impact day to day.  Stop dwelling over others and spend that time in reflection and prayer of how you can become better for you and those around you!
Galatians 6:4-5: Let each person examine his own work, and then he can take pride in himself alone, and not compare himself with someone else. For each person will have to carry his own load.

All made it through successfully. Upon arriving to the hill, we completed a modified Heartbreak 1,2,3, renamed more appropriately to 808’s and Heartbreak after the Kayne West album

While partner was working, the other would sprint to the top of the hill, complete 10 single count Iron Mikes, and return to switch. Rinse and repeat until everyone completed. Return to the AO.

MARY:
With five minutes remaining, PAX grabbed a CMU for 2 minutes of wall sits, with presses (vertical) and pushes (horizontal) mixed in. After 2 minutes, there was 2 minutes of protractors with crunches mixed in. The final minute was spent back on the wall with presses.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

COVID has been a frustrating season for all of us. F3 is not only a community for fitness, but also a community to push ourselves to be better men and make a difference in our communities. A verse on my heart recently is Ephesians 4:31-32:

‘Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with malice. Be kind to one another, tender-hearted and forgiving each other, just as God in Christ has also forgiven you’

MOLESKIN:
We welcomed a new member to the F3 family: Pinocchio’s son Grant was born Friday! Wife and baby are doing well.
