Burpees in the Gloom: Because Therapy is Expensive

YHC Arrived 15 minutes early. Stretched in the stillness. As the PAX rolled in, we opened with this thought:

Opening Message:

““We showed up before the sun—when it’s quiet, still, and easy to stay hidden. But it’s in the dark where integrity is tested. In life, leadership, and faith, it’s not about how loud we are in the light, but how consistent we are in the dark.””
Warm-Up:
– 20 Imperial Walkers (IC)
– 10 Hillbilly Walkers (IC)
– Deep Stretch: Wide leg, center, right leg, left leg

The Thang:
Mosey to Harris Street Park
Along the path, we stopped at 4 points—each time completing:
– 2 Burpees OYO with a reflective question:

1. Who are you when the world’s not looking?
2. What habits are you building in the unseen hours?
3. Is your character the same at home, at work, and in the gloom?
4. What dark corners still need light in your life?

At Harris Street Park Basketball Court
Escalating Suicides:
– Run suicides. After each round, add reps

– 15 Carolina Dry Docks
– 20 Wide-Arm Merkins
– 25 Squats
– 30 LBCs

Mosey up Harris Street to the Church
– At each power pole: 3 Triad Burpees (Wide, Regular, Diamond)
– At each street sign: 15 Big Boy Sit-Ups
– Modified to 2 Triads, then 1 Burpee + 10 BBSUs due to time constraints

Mosey Back to COT
Slowed the pace for final thought:
““Nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.” – Luke 8:17 (ESV)”
Jailbreak to COT
Minute Man smoked it, proving 52 looks strong when you own the dark.

COT:

““As the sun rises today, ask yourself—what part of your life do I need to start owning better in the dark, so I’m stronger in the light?””
We closed with praises and prayer—each man shared one thing they’re bringing from the shadows into the light.

Honor to lead.
– Cornerstone
