22 #HIM unfartsaked themselves this morning at #EaglesNest, even after fair Twitter warning that YHC, planned a new painful undiscovered treasure of discomfort for the PAX this AM.
THE THANG
WARM UP:

- Stretch – Left over Right, Right over Left
- MNC x15

- Merkin x15
Mosey to what was dubbed Popeye’s Peak / Pinnacle after the dust cleared – The fire escape stairs between Tillman, McBride and McLaurin Halls.
DORA – Partner up and do the following while your partner runs the peak (stairs)
- 100 Merkins
- 200 LBCs
- 300 CDD
- 400 Squats
There’s only a few times a workout can shut down mumble chatter from Apache and this one I feel may have done the job.
Plank up and about 20 SSH waiting on the 6 to finish. Thanks to the PAX for sweeping for the 6.
After a few 10 counts to catch our breath I shared with the PAX the verse 1 Timothy 4:8 (ESV) – For while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
I explained a little about the 3 F’s for the newer PAX and how if it weren’t for the 2nd F I would have quit this madness a long time ago. Also how in the past year the 3rd F has been strengthened in my life from help of F3 brothership and of course Sky Q. YHC was out on IR for 4 weeks and I thank all the PAX who wouldn’t let me slip and fall back, encouraging me to get back out when I could muster the strength to do so. With the 400 squats and running the stairs, our legs were on fire! (at least mine were) As a reminder your body and things in life will always fail you, but Jesus will never fail you… EVER.
Mosey to the Johnson Parking Lot for a Popeye favorite
- Bear Crawl Merkins – 10 Parking lines
- Run Back to start
- Lt. Dans approx 20 Parking Lines
Mosey back to the COT for a few more SSH waiting on the 6

Popeye OUT!
Looks like fun. We worked hard on the other side of town too.
He did an awesome horribly job today. I can honestly say no matter what the skills level was this morning everyone pax got a complete workout
Awesome stuff happening in boomsville
Aye Apache
To steal the I like turtles kid… I like stairs. Apache was silenced for most of the workout which is no small feat. 😉
We modified yesterday so we can fight today not everyday is 110% but as long as you give your best each day it will be 110% and sometimes talking gets in the way of breathing
Aye Apache
Breath in breath out… O2 is good.
DORA will still be exploring tomorrow at PHOP
