CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We have to convince ourselves to do Hard Things.  Our brain takes up 20-25% of the energy we use.  It is wired to save mental energy by directing our focus to existing ideas instead of exploring new ones, to move toward things that make us feel good and away from things that make us feel uncomfortable.  How do we convince ourselves to do the Hard Things?  Attitude, intentionally challenging ourselves, and find others to help and support us (like F3 brothers!).  Remember, “count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” James 1:2,3
MOLESKIN:
Prayers lifting up the folks of Western KY and elsewhere impacted by the tornadoes.

At the stairs perform 100 reps of (Block mericans, OH Press, Squats, and Curls)

The rules being you could break up the reps however you wanted but you had to go up and down the steps at least once with the CMU per exercise.  (ex. 25 reps at the bottom, carry cmu up stairs, 25 reps at the top)

*At any time during the workout anyone could yell “block break” which meant everyone had to put down their CMU and that person would lead everyone in an AB exercise of their choice.

Remember that God has a plan for us.  We can’t do it on our own.  Give things to him and watch our tongue and how we handle what life throws at us.
