Clock It

We moseyed around the parking the got to work.

A clock was drawn and we used a deck of cards. The number or face card determined how many merkins or squats you did. i.e. pick a 6 then you did 1 Merkin at 1 then staying in plank rotate to 2 and do 2 merkins, then 3 merkins and so on until you finish wth 6 merkins. Q = 11 and K = 12. Aces were bonus 100 reps of whatever was on the card. 2 were selected and we had 100 SSH and 100 Flutters

6 = American Swings
7 = Goblet Squats
8 = Overhead Press
9 = High Pulls
10= Skull Crushers
Q = Curls
K = Man Makers

MARY: No time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: were made
COT: prayers and praises

NMM
Every day presents different challenges. Will you rise or fall? What decisions will you make?

I woke up this morning at 5:07. The workout I was supposed to lead started at 5:15. I live 8 minutes from the AO. I had a decision to make: hurry out the door or pass my responsibilities to someone else. But Maximus reminded us this morning that society wants to push us to the sidelines. They say we shouldn’t get involved – let someone else take charge. But that’s not our calling. Our mission is to invigorate male community leadership and I can’t do that from my bed. So I did what I was supposed to do, albeit in was 11 minutes late. Late is better than never.

Thank you Bam Bam for taking charge in my absence. I owe you 11 minutes.

Aye!
Italian Job
