YHC read Proverbs 17:17 and discussed that we need to lean on our brothers when we face adversity.  We also need to have the awareness to see when our brothers need a lift.

YHC then prayed us out.

Yes, in a tennis match love means “nothing”—–15-love, 30-love, 40-love. But to a Christian and a HIM (High Impact Man) love is everything. Jesus commands us to love one another. Sometimes this is not easy to love others who are not like us, don’t treat us well, or don’t believe the same as we do. Matthew 22:37 Jesus was asked which commandment was the greatest. He replied “love the Lord your God with all your heart, your soul, and your mind. And the second is like it, love your neighbor as yourself”. How do we love God with all our heart? Obey His commands, spend time in His word, spend time meditating and in prayer. How do we love our neighbor? Look for opportunities to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Just for today make the decision to be less selfish and more Christ-like—–encourage others, engage with those around you and help them however you can. Serve others, love on your wife and kids, love on your parents and friends—-love them well!!!!

Mosey across Worlds Fair Park and over to the Locust Street Garage (aka The Deathstar).

The Deathstar
PAX were instructed to begin with 10 merkins, climb six flights of stairs to the top of the garage and do 6 burpees- then run back to the first floor via the descending parking deck.  10 more merkins at the bottom, 5 flights of stairs, and 5 burpees.

Rinse and repeat until all PAX had completed all levels of the garage.

Lunges Down Locust
After completing the Deathstar, the PAX did lunges on Locust Street for an entire city block, from Clinch Avenue to Union Street.  Burn baby, burn!

Circle of Pain
The PAX moseyed back to the Sun-sphere for a little COP:
Mountain Climbers                               ICx20
Merkins                                                 ICx10
Carolina Dry Docks                              ICx20

Sprints
The PAX moseyed over to the grassy field near the fountains.  From there, the men engaged in an all-out, 100 yard sprint back to the fountains.  Heart rate buster!

At the fountains, the PAX did one set of incline merkins OYOx15.

We are all faced with difficult decisions each day.  Decisions at work, at home and in our community roles.  P-nut told of a mentor that advised him long ago to “look at your daily tasks and decide which item was the toughest/most difficult task you would face that day…and then to do that one first.”  The idea is to tackle your biggest obstacles first- and you’ll feel better/perform better the rest of the day.

MOLESKIN
Incredible energy and mumblechatter from the PAX.  The Deathstar was fun and full of suck, but worth visiting again (SOON).
