ANNOUNCEMENTS: read your newsletter
COT: stay safe D2Db
WARMUP: We did an extended full body warm-up with various exercises focused on the hamstrings.
THE THANG:
This was a practice Obstacles Course Run OCR testing our athleticism and endurance. We ran it together. There was a lot of up and down movements, running into and out of “obstacles”, bear crawls, mountain climbers, and small hills. We ran just over a 5k distance + obstacles.
I want to say that @SouptoNuts and @Headspin did a great job with a difficult workout goal today. They kept moving and were definitely challenged endurance and athleticism-wise. Keep up the great work!
MESSAGE: (My words were requested):
Topic: Pride, Worry/Anxiety, Laziness:
Has the enemy batted you down a path to destruction with some of these above?
– Watch out for PRIDE.
Humility is a posture, not a feeling.
– Worry/Anxiety:
Worry is anti-prayer.
When you worry, cast those things on God.
– Laziness is an abdication of responsibility.
Watch out for isolation.
– HOPE: 1 Peter 5:6-7
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because He cares for you.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: None.
COT: There are some key prayer requests within the PAX for family dealing with health challenges. For all of us for humility, direction, and openness to SkyQ’s will.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Well, this workout was anything other than
C.A.L.M. for the first 20 minutes. Comments were flying all over the place for my early incoherent 5:15 a.m. speech and demonstrations patterns. Rough start. It never let up after @Fishstix chided me with my beautiful description of Moroccan Night Clubs.
WARMUP: So we warmed up with a few of those and two other exercises.
THE THANG:
3 sections:
1. 15 minute workout with a partner; timer is the one person in the larger group doing 12 manmakers with a 30 lb sandbag
Partner rotate exercises based on timer listed above:
Merkins/Squats
Dips/Reverse Lunges
One arm Shoulder Presses with KB/Squat high jumps
We rotated through about twice.
2. Ab practice time. I will admit there was a lot of chatter in the first 15 minutes, less in the next 6.5 minutes of abs and quite a bit more of groaning and complaining.
1 minutes each:
Figure 8’s
Parker Peters
X-man Crunch
Rest for 30 secs
Starfish Crunch
21 Crunch
Twisted T-planks
3. Broga: 25 minutes with a focus on shoulders

MESSAGE:
T.H.I.N.K.

The blessing of fellowship at every workout is a sustaining thing for all of us. I was grateful for that this morning in a small but meaningful group of HIM.
Dojo – thanks for the call out. You were missed. Bonsai & Short Sale – thanks for joining YHC. It was a pleasure to be in your company this morning in the gloom and go 1-0 on the day.
Gratefully,
Cyclops
