The Thang

21s – In unison PAX does cadence count Side Straddle Hops, counting aloud 1-5. Reps 6-21 are all mental and everyone must stop together at 21. Five Penalty Burpees for missing the cut off.

Run 1 Mile to Wal Mart

7 of Diamonds – Four corners with exercise reps increasing by seven at each corner (7, 14, 21, 28)
70 Merkins
70 Flutters
70 Squats
70 Bombjacks
70 American Hammers

Mosey back to AO – stopping periodically for 21 Carolina Drydocks and 21 Knee Tar Jais.

There’s an old Italian saying, “after the game, the king and the pawn go into the same box.” When our days are done, it doesn’t matter how much money we made or how fine our possessions were. We should use our time to get right, live right, and lead right so we can leave right. Stay humble, be kind, and love always. That’s the legacy that lasts beyond when we close the box on the game.

Aye!

There’s a 4-letter word that has dashed more dreams and held back more potential than any other. “Just.”
“You’re just not my type.”
“You’re just not smart enough for this class. Just quit now and save yourself the embarrassment.”
“You’re just not tall enough. You’re just not fast enough.”
“You’re just not college material.”
They said Jesus was just a carpenter from a nowhere town. They said his followers were just fishermen and outcasts. Just is a way people try to hold you back. Don’t let others tell you what you can’t do or who you can’t be. Just do it.
