PLANK THE WALK
One PAX reverse lunge walks the pier up and back while the rest of the PAX do flying squirrels.

I should have had us do planks instead of burpees and flying squirrels, for a perfect double entendre. Dang it Bobby! Next time…

Good mix followed by some yoga and stretching.

NMM
How many of us have said something we wish we could take back? I know I’ve burned bridges and hurt feelings because I didn’t control my words. It happens, but we should strive to reduce the frequency by being slow to anger and biting our tongues. Words have the power to build or break. You can’t take back toxic talk and bitter babble. “Those who guard their mouths and their tongues keep themselves from calamity” – Proverbs 21:33.

Let’s keep that in mind when frustrated at work or when arguing with loved ones. What has been said cannot be unsaid. Sometimes silence is best.

Aye!

Leave a comment

WARMUP:

Gear up and head to amphitheater. Partner workout. All gear needs to get to the top of the amphitheater. Only one partner can carry at a time. Non-carrying partner must be completing exercises while partner is carrying. Once partner 1 gets to the top, he calls for his partner to bring something up the hill while he begins the exercises at the top. Once the second partner gets to the top, he begins to complete exercises while partner 1 heads back down to start empty handed. Then partner 1 calls for partner 2 to move, and he begins to exercise until he gets to remaining gear. Repeat.
Bottom exercises: goblet squat w/bell or block, calf raises w/gear
Top exercises: 2-hand upright row w/gear, calf raises w/gear
THE THANG:
Gear up and head to the parking lot in the back of the school for 4 corners. Drop gear in the center, but keep ruck on for all exercises. Every time you get to the center, complete 10 squats.

COT: Gratitude for this community, those who inhabit it and all we can influence well through our words and deeds.

Our credo is to leave no man behind and leave no man where we found him. Apply the same principle to our community by getting involved and not doing life alone. A HIM influences by word AND deed. Thankful for the men who ensure YHC has better alignment of word and deed because of F3.

Thanks for the call, Bass-o-Matic. :eye:

At top of hill, accumulate as many squats as you can until the 6 reaches top of hill. Careful descent down the hill.

Continue our mosey down the path to remaining park benches.

Mosey back to Massey hill – lunge to top parking lot where we did merkins, calf raises, and proved to ourselves we got better at navy seal burpees.
