Three Strands of Strength

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
NASA led warmup. Slow mosey around the parking lot, ending near where we started for 10-20 of the following:
– SSH
– WM
– MNC
– IW
– Produce Pickers
The slow mosey to the front stage area of the amphitheater to start the main events.
THE THANG:
Part 1 – NASA led – No OYO

Group run around the WEP newly paved path, stopping at every swing, or where there was supposed to be a swing, for the following:
– 5 Burpees OYO
– 10 merkins IC
– 15 LSS IC
– 20 flutters (2 ct, every other leg) IC
– 25 SSH (4 ct) IC
Group run to the next, repeat the above. There are 9 swings, this would be a LOT of reps, right? Well, same as in life, if you share your burdens, pairing up with those you can trust, the burden gets lighter, even though it is still there. After 4 benches, starting at the 5th, one exercise went away. So the 5th bench was merkins, LSS, flutters, SSH. The 6th was just LSS, flutters, SSH, and so on. Then the group did an Indian run the last 1/4 of the track back to the amphitheater where Q was handed off to Pusher.

Part 2 – Led by Pusher – DORA around Little Baby Jesus

From WEP amphitheater, group ran down Ardrey St to Harris St, stopping halfway down Ardrey for CDDs while we grouped back up for the 6, then eventually took a left on Harris, then went to the front of the Fort Mill Church of the Nazarene, the Little Baby Jesus. Then we paired up for a DORA. One person exercised, the other ran a loop around the church building.
– 100 merkins
– 200 LSS
– 300 LBC

Pusher’s message throughout was a cord of three strands cannot be easily broken. If you go things alone, life will break you more easily. Find a shieldlock or two to help strengthen your cord. Keep in mind the Lord provides alot of strength too.

Everyone crushed it! A LOT of merkins, LSS, LBC, flutters, SSH, and some burpees mixed in for flavor, with a total distance of about 2.3 miles. Solid work by all.

MARY: Got back to COT with a little extra time for a Pusher led Mary session of 20 ct each of flutters, hello dollys, LBCs, 2 rounds nonstop, and your feet never touch the ground. OUCH!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence at The Ranch on Thanksgiving day, 0630 start. Run, boot, kettlebell options. Birdcage has a 3 person team competition too. Alot of things going on. Read the newsletter and GET INVOLVED!!

COT: A LOT lifted up. We really shared in COT. Keep in mind the COT can be another string to strengthen your cord, but it has to be utilized.

Also, we had an Immaculate EH. While Pusher was taking us out in COT, I felt a new, strong hand grip by shoulder. It was a very calming presence, and remained throughout the COT words being offered by Pusher. As we broke, I turned around and saw a new face, not F3, with a smile on his face. He had just arrived at WEP to start his day with his friend, saw our COT and felt compelled to join. We greeted each other with handshakes and smiles, and I introduced him to the others in our group. Emmett is his name, and he knows Olaf through Red Truck Men. He was so moved by our COT, he wanted to lead us out in another prayer, so we COT’d up again and he offered some amazing words. His female friend joined in as well. Incredibly moving. THIS is what it is all about! They both hung around and talked with the entire group. We told him about F3, its mission, and when/where we meet, and he said he will see us all again soon, that he really likes what F3 is about. This was divine intervention. Immaculate EH.

What a morning! Loved co-Q-ing with Pusher, we planned out what I felt was a great one. Thank you JWow for the opportunity.

Lazy Susan Kettlebell Buffet at the Hive

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mountain climbers, Imperial walkers, Arm circles. Brief mozy around the parking lot.
THE THANG: All Pax grab their kettlebell and form a line on the same pavement seam at COT. Left arm touching the person next to them’s shoulder for spacing. Everyone then leaves their kettlebell at their feet and makes the same line to the right of all kettlebells while assuming the plank position. Pax at the end passes the first bell to the person on their right who then passes it on to the next, etc. After passing the bell, each pax side-planks to their left to receive the next kettlebell. Rinse and repeat until all kettlebells have been passed through the line. Once completed, Pax on the right repeats and passes the bells to their left until all have been passed through the line.
Pax then moved to the base of the hill and faces the small roundabout equally-ish spaced around the circle, placing their kettlebell at their feet. Each Pax does 8 reps of one exercise using their own bell then side planks to their right to the next bell for the same exercise. Rinse and repeat until returning back to their own kettlebell. (56 total reps). Exercises were flutter with press, swings, upright rows, triceps. Mode of transportation alternated each lap between side planks and lunges.
Mozy to the bottom of the hill. There were five cones placed going up the hill with the final cone being at the top. Pax would run to the first cone and back to the previous where they grab their kettlebell and returned to the first cone. At each cone there is a single exercise written on it. Pax complete the exercise (20 reps) then rinse and repeat the process to get to the next cone and up the hill. Exercises were “from the ground up” and included kettlebell merkins, calf raises, squats, shoulder presses, and halos.
What goes up must come down so we repeated the process to get back to the start.
With a few minutes left, we returned to the circle for a lap of biceps curls and side planks before returning to COT.
MARY: Nada.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: T-Day Convergence, holiday party, newsletter.
COT: Family, holiday stress, enjoying every moment and being thankful for what we have.
