THE THANG:

Tumblin Dice

Burpees in the middle

Roll the dice and use that number for the amount of reps at each station, always coming back to the middle after each outside exercise

Pax was nervous Q would make them do double the number of burpees in the middle. Like Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon, Q is too old for that ish.

We listened to Physical Graffiti.

Remember to Rest!
– your body
– your mind
– your soul

It’s getting busier and busier this time of year. How good can you be for yourself and others if you don’t take care of yourself wholly- and Holy.

Physically you have to balance. Work hard, be strong- but recover! Listen to your body.

Mentally you have to turn it off. Reflect. Rejoice! Appreciate the ups and even the downs. You did something! You learned. Did you get better? Are you fulfilled? Are you focused? Refocused?

Spiritually you have to rest. Pray, meditate. Appreciate what The Lord provides and what his path for you promises. Your trust in Him should simplify things, and help you focus on the important stuff.

Good to be back

FNGs: None
COUNT: 9
WARMUP: one squat

THE THANG:

Four different stations after you partner up.
First patient one partner does an exercise while the other partner runs to the next station and runs back and switches with the other partner.
Do this three times and then go to the second station and run from the second station to the third station and so on and so forth

This is a classic ribbed workout, not much needs to be said. Except for the fact that because I did not have any instructions, it was like a bunch of wild horses, figuring out what to do and people were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

MARY: stretching with ribbed

ANNOUNCEMENTS: don’t @channel the channel

COT:

“Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.”
