COT:
Chris Mortenson died earlier this week from throat cancer. He was known as a classy and likable NFL journalist. He was entertaining, interesting, and players trusted him. He broke many important stories over the years, Such as the retirement of Peyton manning, and covered 33 NFL drafts. I found an interview that he did and I found his respons

“The one question (s) you should ask is-is there a God? Is Jesus who he said he was? What does that mean for me?”

Nothing about going for greatness. Making the most of life. Reaching for dreams. What it takes to be successful. Nope not that..

Just…”is Jesus who he said that he was?”

5x Cherry Pickers
8x Trunk Twist
2x Burpees
15x LBAC each way
10x Tempo Squats

THE THANG:
Briefest of Moseys over to the Toaster to grab some toys. CMUs all around except for Mayberry whose hands are too soft to handle the rough, abrasive concrete surface, so he grabbed his weight plate.

Mall walk the long way to the base of the Causeway, pausing for 20x weighted BBS about halfway.

We have one cardboard at each end of the causeway, each with 6 exercises. One pax at the top, one at the bottom and one in transition at all times.

OHP
Curls
Tri Ext
Squat thrust
Lawn Mowers
Alpos

BOTTOM:

Due to the length of the Causeway, this took the balance of the hour.
