5 burpees
10 lunges
15 Imperial Walkers
20 Merkins
25 Plank Jacks
30 Squats (sometimes Bulgarian Split Squats when we found picnic tables)

MARY: a bit of core interspersed, but not much. Quack Attack would not have approved

NMM: every PAX shared their biggest work failures. Grateful to hear how successful men have messed up. Even the “goo” culture shares our successes, but sharing our failures keeps us from feeling so alone when we screw up. Thanks to everyone for their vulnerability. As IJ said in COT, a failure is just a waypoint to someplace better. Let’s stay after it.

Taking the Conga Line Through Life

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Bit of a mosey and short COP with mumblechatter from Bonsai on the Qs Disclaimer. No, it wasn’t perfect. It also wasn’t missed entirely (except you Bonsai).

THE THANG: Two sets of accumulator series 5x / 10x / 15x /20x / 25x with bear crawls or crawl bears in between. one series was all lower body, one all core. along the way we did a conga line mosey weaving through all the posts of the carpool awning at the school.

MESSAGE: Workout and message today were geared around life not moving in a straight line. it hasn’t for me in career, fitness, faith, marriage, finances, etc. there have been ups and downs and twists and turns. too often I fall into the trap of blaming myself or someone else for the downticks when in fact that’s just part of the journey. and in fact it’s those downticks when I have the most to learn and grow. so take the attitude about the #Suck from the Gloom and apply it to the #Suck in the rest of your life — Embrace It!

thanks for the invite Triple Lindy and the AKA spirit Funhouse and pax! always an honor to lead.

COT: It was Day 2 of AKA and we had a great showing and energy level. some new faces (FITS) and some welcome kotters (Naked and Afraid).
