Shared how we should not fear sharing our faith with others knowing that God will put is in the right place at the right time with the right words, as long as we surrender to His Will.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.””

Asylum IPC Week 3

THE SCENE: Fall-ish, 49 degrees when we kicked off
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Warm up OYO and explained iron pax for this week
THA-THANG:

Measure out 400 meters or 1 lap around a standard track.
Measure out 50 yards (using a football field would help significantly)
The Thang
Set the timer for 2 minutes.
Exercises to be done are:
50 Kraken Burpees (3 hand release merkins to a burpee = 1)
50 BDE burpees (burpee, to a Bonnie Blair/jumping lunge (1 on each leg), to a squat = 1)
50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunge (right leg-left leg = 1)
Workout starts at the cone. Start the timer.
Begin 50 kraken burpees.
When timer goes off, sprint to the other cone that is 50 yards away and continue with Kraken Burpees.
For example, if you did 8 kraken burpees before the timer went off, when you get to the opposite cone, you start counting with the number 9.
This continues until you finish all 50 kraken burpees.
After finishing 50 Kraken Burpees, run one lap (400 meters).
Upon completing 400 meters and returning to the cones, begin 50 BDE burpees. Same procedure as above.
When you return, you start doing the BDE Burpees right away and when the timer goes off, you run to the other cone.
You DO NOT have to wait for the next timer to go off when you return to start the BDE Burpees.
After finishing 50 BDE Burpees, run two laps (800 meters).
Upon completing 800 meters and returning to the cones, begin 50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges (right leg-left leg = 1)
When you return, you start doing the Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges right away and when the timer goes off, you run to the other cone.
You DO NOT have to wait for the next timer to go off when you return to start the Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges.
After finishing 50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping lunges, run three laps (1200 meters).
You are done after completing 3 laps.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Talked about our plans vs God’s and how we often make our plans without him or without prayer.  We ask him to bless the plans we came up with.  Instead, we need to realize what God has planned for us is far better than anything we could ever come up with for ourselves.  We make it too difficult.  All he’s asking us to do today is love him and love the person in front of us.

Crazy 88s or Can I go back to doing burpees now? IPC2

THE SCENE: Sorta cool, but your shirt is still getting drenched with sweat
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Very short:  A few SSHs and some quick X-factors to prep for the IPC, and then a quick mosey to the parking lot on the other side of the Cloud.
THA-THANG:
4 rounds.  Distance covered is always 60 yards.

  • 8 burpees, run to other marker, 8 burpees, run back.  Repeat 11x (for 88 total burpees);
  • Grab your CMU for Squrls (Squats with a curl).  Do 8, CMU carry to other marker, 8 more, etc. x 11 (88 total Squrls)
  • CMU again.  This time, it’s 88 overhead presses in a row, rifle carry to the marker, 88 overhead presses again, rifle carry back to the start.  You are now done with the coupons!
  • Last one:  88 X-factors in a row and either bear crawl or crawl bear to the other marker for 88 more x-factors, then bear crawl or crawl bear (whichever one you didn’t do to get you to the marker) back.
  • Plank it up while waiting on the Six (just kidding – catch your breath)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
From something I heard the other day that’s been pinging around in my head:  “If you have a goal and just keep working toward that goal, the universe will train you.”  I don’t know about that, but I do know that if you want to accomplish anything, the path forward is so much easier when we let God train us.  We do that when our goal is to seek God’s guidance, listen for him, open our hearts and our minds to him.  I find that much, much easier to say than do.  Frankly, it takes a lot of strength to pursue that goal every day. Hence, our verse for the BOM:  “But you, be strong and do not lose courage, for there is reward for your work.”  2 Chronicles 15:7.
MOLESKIN:
Continue praying for Matlock’s father in law and family and their very tough situation.

Also, shout out to Waffle House, who wins beast-of-the-day award.  We were one short on CMUs, so the Q grabbed a coupon from the big rock pile.  Not wanting to cheat, I picked a decent sized rock. It turned out that was the Rock of Pain, very much heavier than a CMU coupon.  After seeing the Q struggle through round 2, he took on the rock and completed the most grueling part of the workout with it.  That is a HIM in action!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Hardship Hill- Sign up!  And we still need guys to help build the obstacles we are responsible for.

Drexler is the new Barkley?

THE SCENE: Mid-60s, post-rain, really nice!
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
The Q was late, so Hot Tub got us started with SSHs, Q arrived in time to throw in some Cherry Pickers.  Time to Mosey
THA-THANG:
It’s the Barkley.  But with 25s at each station, so I guess that makes it the Drexler, although there was this whole Slack back and forth that led to that.  Trust me, you just had to be there.

 

So, the Barkley is the circumnavigation of the top of Everest, the Colosseum, and the the Asylum building.  There are 4 stations to check in:

  • Station 1: 25s of Merkins and Big Boys;
  • Station 2: 25s of Calf Raises and LBCs (4 count for each);
  • Station 3: 25s of Carolina Dry Docks and Amer. Hammers (4 ct)
  • Station 4: 25s of flutters (4 ct) and squats

Complete as many laps as possible. (2-3)

MARY:
None today.  Ran out of time.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Grief has been on my mind lately.  We all grieve. We grieve the loss of a loved one, the loss of friendships, the loss of a marriage, a job, a pet, activities or function from injury.  The list goes on.  If we don’t deal with it, it will deal with us.  It will get out and cause damage.  For me, I get angry at people I love for no reason.  Rely on God to help, reach out your brothers in the Pax, to loved ones.  Exercise the body, the spirit, and the mind.  Don’t let grief take hold of you.  Hat-tip to Omaha for the verse for the day: 2 Corithians 12:9-10
