CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My church just started a series on marriage so I’ve been reflecting on what it takes to have a good marriage.  It starts with time.  When it comes to time and our spouse, we fall into one of three camps:

  1. You can’t get enough of your spouse: this would commonly be thought of the infatuation or dating phase but I like to believe it does not have to be limited to that.  This is where you just want to be around your spouse as much as possible because of they joy you get from them
  2. You’re not getting enough of your spouse: This would be where you fill your life up with so much stuff/activities (some that matter very much like kids and others that do not…you fill in the blank) that you don’t have time for each other and you essentially become roommates
  3. You’ve had enough of your spouse: I’m sure you can imagine what this entails and you don’t want to be here.

We need to be investing in our marriage (relationships for those not married).  We take 1+ hour a few days a week to invest in our health/fitness but what do we do on the days off?  I sleep in.  But I could get up at 5AM like I do on beat down days and read a book on marriage or do something thoughtful for my wife.  What else are we investing time in that may not be as important as our marriage?  I believe that all marriages are in one of three states/stages

  1. Thriving: knowing can go wrong, neither of you can do any wrong by the other.  This is usually experienced during dating and the few years after marriage (or until you have kids….am I right?!…)
  2. Striving: You know things aren’t the way you want them to be and your are working to make them better
  3. Surviving: This is the “let’s just get through this without divorce or killing each other” phase

Start investing in your marriages/relations ships so you can experience the joy of a thriving marriage with someone you cannot get enough of!

4 Lines and Agility Roulette

THE SCENE: So cold. Like getting close to what-the-heck-are-we-doing-out-here cold. But not quite. Just like 20 or so.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

20 SSH, 10 Merkins, 10 Squats
THA-THANG:
4 lines. Each has a rep count. 5, 10, 15, and 20. Work your way up each line, run to the Pull-up bars for 5 pull-ups. Work your way down each line. After completing the 3 below, only work up the lines.

  • Merkins and bear crawl
  • BBS and crab walks
  • Squats and lunges
  • Rinse and repeat for time (but only Work up to 20, not back down)

Agility roulette. Set up a bunch of Agility cones. One PAX calls out an exercise for all to do until they get back. Then the next person calls a new one while they run the cones and so on… surprisingly, no repeated movements. Well done y’all.

MARY:
N/A. lots of abs in the roulette.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Kind of a silly thing, but was listening to a workmate learn the hard lesson of not going to the dealership for tire issues and payed way more than needed for a new tire when a patch would have worked. Reminded me of the importance of learning from other people’s experiences, mistakes, and wisdom. Sometimes, it is super practical like the tire thing. But the ultimate example of this is Christ. We can trust His testimony having proved Himself via miracles and being vindicated through His resurrection which hundreds of people witnessed. If we are to learn from anyone’s experiences, it is His.

THANG

Simple. Just 4 exercise: Merkins, BigBoy sit-ups, CMU curls, and CMU OH press.  Start off with 5 a piece and run a lap.  Add 5 more and an extra lap up to 25 reps and 5 laps and then work your way down.  That’s it, nice and simple.
