COT:
This was a very special day as we passed the shovel flag off to a new leader, Slappy! It is going to be extremely exciting to see what he does in the role and how Shamrock is going to thrive under his leadership.

We have all heard the quote, “Strong men create good time, good times creat weak men, weak men create bad times, bad times create strong men.” I head some commentary on this quote from Nick Freitas on this and says, “Bad times don’t create strong men, strong men are made by the influence of other strong men.” He goes on to talk about how strong men are there through good times and bad, but in the bad times, strong men are once again appreciated for what they contribute to society.
I instantly thought of F3 and the group of strong men that I have the privilege of working out beside every morning. All of you have made me a stronger man in all areas of my life and I am thankful for every one of you.

COT:
Pray. It seems too simple and easy to be effective, but it’s not and it is. Don’t let the apparent ease of taking a few minutes stop you from doing it at all. Don’t let a high standard keep you from something simple. Prayer is the one thing we can always lean on.

Bears vs Crabs Soccer

June 22, 2023 Borg

THE SCENE: 66 degrees with slightly more than a drizzle to keep us cool-ish
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER: Done
WARM-O-RAMA:

Mosey one lap – high knees, butt kicks
SSH IC – 20
Merkins IC – 10
Squats IC – 20
Mosey to the tennis courts

THA-THANG:

Bears vs Crabs Soccer: Count off by 2’s to divide into teams, during play, one team has to crab walk while the other has to bear crawl. Once someone scores a goal, then the teams swap roles (bear to crab and crab to bear). Goalies have to be in plank position, and goalies must be swapped out after every goal scored. There may be more than one ball on the field at any time. The ball must roll through the goal to count. Shots only count if the PAX is on hands and feet, not knees or butt. When the ball goes out of bounds, run to get it back in play, no walking.

Play for 15 minutes.
Recovery jog around the tennis court.
SSH X 61
Divide into different teams. Play until 6:00a.m. Mosey back to COT for Mary.

MARY:
10+ minutes of Mary to top off the Ab workout.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Success is a ByProduct. Of what? Dreaming, planning, executing, adjusting to feedback, white knuckling through some obstacles, not white knuckling through some obstacles. Understand that Cause and Effect logic can be misleading. You need trusted men with good fruit over time to have your back, so that you will listen when they tell you what you don’t want to hear, but need to hear. Get to Shieldlock.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
9 got it done today at the Project!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today’s tribute workout is to the sacrifice that Michael Murphy made for our nation. It got YHC thinking about the sacrifices that we make or should make. Countless times in the Bible we are told to put others before ourselves. Their desires before our own. While our life might not be in the line, much of the time our ego and pride are. Pride is not a godly trait. I will leave you with this passage.

“Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.”

1 John 2:15‭-‬17 NASB1995
