Meeting Q1.12

Leave a comment

WARMUP: yes
THE THANG:
string of pearls
5 merkins
5 lunges each leg
5 side lunges each side

Some other work throw in

7 total decided to meet with a Q who was willing to take responsibility for the outcome including calling off the workout if lightning presented itself. Zeus’s wrath was stayed and Odin’s ravens can attest to our https://f3nation.com/q/meeting/ (7+1=8)

– reminded us that idolatry takes many forms
– refused to yield
– The Brazilian martial arts motivate
– Wonder if (not present) knows about this
– layered up with 30lbs and then a rain jacket. The jacket was probably the more uncomfortable bit
– CS Lewis was mentioned by , but favors JRR Tolkien. Both complained about their lower extremities
– opened his mouth and the rain fell in. (not present) gave those instructions ages ago

You could livestream your way through a Sunday service, and still not connect on a single salient point of your belief system because you lack proximity to those whose mere presence helps hold you accountable. Might as well listen to a podcast and call it church.

So, you work to figure out your https://f3nation.com/lexicon/, but if you’re not meeting to accelerate your faith, then are you really accelerating much at all?

A brick workout broke out in the midst of a Shield Lock discussion

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Took a lap around the COT parking lot performing karaoke, buttkickers, and highknees. Circled up close to my vehicle because we needed to grab some bricks. But, before each man grabbed his source of pain we performed 10xSSHinCadence, 10xWMinCadence, 10xCPsinCadence, 10xMNCsinCadence, and 10xMerkinsinCadence. Short mosey to the vehicle, popped open the tailgate, and everybody grabbed some bricks.
THE THANG: COT parking lot is marked as a football field. Started at the goal line and lunged walk to the 50yard line. Every time PAX went down into their lunge they were asked to perform a lateral raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10 yards and executed 10 Burpees.

Next, we moseyed to a nearby grassy area. Time for a Jack Web of pain. 1 Merkin – 4 OCs w/ bricks. We definitely felt the pain by the time we made it to 10 Merkins – 40 OCs w/ bricks.

Moseyed back to the 50yard line. Ask the PAX to reverse lunge walk back to the goal line. Every time the PAX went down in to their lunge they performed a front raise with the bricks. We stopped every 10yards to perform 10 BombJacks with the bricks.

Didn’t need to travel far for the next Jack Web of pain. PAX circled up and we started with 1 Squat – 4 LowSquatPulses. While pulsing PAX were asked to hold their bricks in a front raised position. Legs & shoulders were burning by the time we made it to 10 Squats – 40 LowSquatPulses. A lot of funny commentary regarding everyone’s pulsing technique and pulsing speed ( apparently I’m a slow pulser ).

Last, but not least, asked the PAX to lie down on their bellies for some Superman Poses. We held each pose for a 10 count by YHC ( apparently, I’m also a slow counter, blame it on my Southern upbringing ). 1st pose was arms straight out with bricks in hand and legs together, 2nd pose was arms in field goal position and legs spread slightly apart, 3rd pose was arms in airplane position with legs spread shoulder width apart, and 4th pose was arms in parachute position with legs spread wide apart. Performed 2 sets of each pose.
MARY: Had time for 15xAlternating Single Leg V-Ups and 30x Touch your toes crunches, of course, all exercises performed with bricks.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter serve tonight, the upcoming Jager CSAUP ( can’t wait for this one ), Rock Region’s 10 year anniversary, and a few others that I’ve failed to remember.
