  • Tsunami Burpee = Start on your back, rock back then forward onto your feet, jump out of it, then drop and do a full burpee, that’s one rep. Ocean calls is a deck squat burpee, but it reminds me more of getting rolled up in a violent wave after you have done several reps of them. its like you are caught in a TSUNAMI BRO! Totally tubular!
  • Well, a lot of moaning and groaning going on doing the 11s but thanks to Snorkel and his super powers, he finished his 11s when I was about 85% done so I decided to say RECOVER!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Six Ethics of Life

  • Before you Pray – Believe

It means not lose sight of the true meaning of worship and prayer.  To many people treat church as a form of entertainment not a means to improve one’s faith and relationship with God.

  • Before you Speak – Listen

To me it is especially important to listen, especially when the conversation is confrontational.  Try to listen to the issue before allowing emotion to take over.

  • Before you Spend – Earn

Avoid burdensome dept or burrowing from others if possible. For me this is not leaving beyond your means.

  • Before you Write – Think

Never write anything you wouldn’t want your mother to read.  Be careful with what you say on social media. Things never go away.

  • Before you Quit – Try

I think we have all got this one.  We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t.

  • Before you Die – Live

Don’t forget to spend time with your friends, family, take time to doing things you enjoy!
