Stations and Exercises (Baseball-Themed):

MOT farmer carry

• 1st Base – “Steal the Base Lunges”: Kettlebell reverse lunges – 10 reps per leg (hold kettlebell goblet-style at chest). Step back into lunge, drive forward—mimicking aggressive base advancement.

MOT duck walk

• 2nd Base – “Double-Play Thrusters”: Kettlebell goblet squat to overhead press – 12 reps. Squat deeply, then explode upward while pressing the kettlebell overhead (like turning a double play).

MOT bear crawl with bell toss

• 3rd Base – “Tag-Out Rows”: Single-arm kettlebell bent-over rows – 12 reps per arm. Hinge at hips, row the kettlebell to your side (as if fielding and throwing out a runner).

MOT Lunge walk

In between each rounding of the bases we did a mosey, flutters and other exercises to pause

Took 4 trips around the bases with the final straight farmer carry

Walk Through John 19

THE THANG: Today is Good Friday and we covered a good bit of John 19 and The Passion.

Each station is a count of 33 and we worked our way up and down the ladder with passages from John 19 along with these exercises:

squats
SSH
press
lunges
merkins

The verse of the day which I forgot to read is:

“I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world.””

‭‭John‬ ‭16‬:‭33‬ ‭CSB‬‬

MARY: We stretched a bit then wrapped it up.

COT: Lifting up the prayer requests in the circle.

Thanks @U087NCUTMPT for the opportunity to lead. Happy Easter.
