Blimps are fun

Another super humid morning but it was great seeing 11 other guys show up to get the day started right. Quick disclaimer then mosey around park stopping at each swing for 2 exercises. 10 counts of imperial Walker's, cherry pickers, tempo merkins, low slow squats, wide arm merkins, etc. Mosey down trail behind park to the grass hill for accumulating BLIMPS. 5 burpees, then either run up big hill or smaller side hill and return. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, nur up hill. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, 15 imp squat Walker's, bear crawl up hill (not my idea but someone really wanted to bear crawl). Same 5, 10, 15, then 20 merkins, run up hill. Same 5, 10, 15, 20, then 25 plank jacks and nur up hill. Last round 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 SSHs then mosey back to amphitheater. Partner up. P1 does flying squirrel while P2 holds plank. P2 drops to 6 inch plank hold and P1 jumps over. Repeat for total of 8 flying squirrels then flap jack. Yog around amphitheater then rinse and repeat. Yog back to COT for a few ab exercises then times up. Appreciate the opportunity @U08QLQH6J68

Push Through Complacency

WARMUP: SSH, down dog, honeymooner, cherry pickers, side lunges and some 5 second Merkins.

THE THANG: 20,15,10,5 cinder block reps with a run after each set. Two movements to super set each other.

Bench Press, Dips

Cleans, Bent over Rows

Squats, Over head press

Started each new set of movements together and took a 10 count before starting.

Ended with a burnout set of cinder block Thrusters. Did as many as you could.

Moseyed back to the flag for ab work until the clock hit 6.

Today was about push through the hard stuff and pushing through the complacency of a workout, work, marriage, faith every aspect of life. But remembering to stop and take a breath to reset your mind before doing the hard things.

MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Print shop cookout on 7/21 for defend the father less. Read your newsletter.
COT: prayers for travel, family, work for The Pirate and his wife. And for Stagecoach becoming a dad.

NMM: From Dark Helmet:
Here's what I will tell you, no one was a huge fan of the wounded dogs but the hill sprints on TCD Hill were the real crowd pleaser…total shutdown of mumblechatter and several bodily functions. We were also treated to a number of PAX sightings as we went. I recall Shady, Pauly D, Tesh and Spike making a pass through. They looked miserable. That's good training for BRR, which is at least 72% misery. The rest is a loose emulsion of running and fellowship.

MARY: Worked in throughout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Pints & Padres family cookout June 21 at 5:30pm at The Print Shop.
Step up and serve at The Bethel Men's Shelter.
COT: There are a lot of things going well, but there are a lot of challenges around The Fort. Don't wait for someone else to do it. Reach out to a man and share burdens. As has been said before: A burden shared is half the burden, a joy shared is twice the joy.
