Pearl Harbor Remembrance Workout

THE SCENE: Clear & Cool @ 39 degrees in Powell TN at the local High School
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

Was Done.

WARM-O-RAMA:
SSH, LBAC, Merkins, Cherry Pickers, Wind Mills, Stretching, Run a Lap .
THA-THANG:
Two teams of 3 were arranged, the yellow team & the orange. The orange team seemed to have more due diligence about themselves & prior knowledge about the subject matter than the yellow team. A question was read about Pearl Harbor by the Q while each team sent a HIM around the parking lot to grab a disc of their assigned color. The teams HIM who returned to the Q first with a disc in hand got to answer first. The team that lost had to draw a Royalty Card from the F3 Deck of Workout Card and perform 25 reps of said exercise while the other team drew a number card and performed the exercise 10 Reps. If neither team got the  correct answer an ACE was drawn and the PAX performed the exercise 100 Reps. This happened twice. The Orange team won most challenges & the Yellow team had to perform most of the Royalty Card exercises but the Orange Team demonstrated some grace by trading cards a couple of times. Some extra Burpees were performed because the Yellow Team tried to use a number card when they were supposed to use a royalty card.

MARY:

N/A abdominal exercises were interspersed in the workout itself.

A few quotes:  “I always thought it was me against the world and then one day I realized it was just me against me,” Every next level of your life will demand a different you,” Everyone wants a powerful woman until you start dating her and realize you have to step your shit up.”  Basically, know that it is you against you until you devote yourself to those relationships, especially one with God.  As we did today, “partner Up,” because you’re never really alone.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Don’t expect to be motivated every day to get out there and make things happen. You won’t be. Don’t count on motivation. Count on Discipline.
Motivation will only get you so far. It won’t get you out of bed every morning to go to workout. Discipline will get you through the things that you don’t feel like doing, but will push you to do it.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.  But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
James 1:2‭-‬5 NASB
Many times we answer with knowledge instead of wisdom. Wisdom includes listening to anothers words and feelings and responding if necessary. Many times no response is needed, the person just needed to be heard. Wisdom is required for the trials we face, we need to be willing to ask for it and have the patience to receive it.

A piece from John Ortberg’s “The Life You’ve Always Wanted” about meditating on scripture. The scripture was Psalm 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God!” We challenged ourselves to keep that scripture in mind throughout our day.
