Carry the Load

Leave a comment

10 men carried heavy things on a sweaty Wednesday morning at the Sink. Here’s what we did:

Warm-up

  • 10 Low Slow Squats (IC)
  • 10 Imperial Walkers (IC)
  • Front Fold Stretch
  • Side Stretch

Mosey to flag pole

The Thang
The PAX brought a ruck, sandbag, and kettlebell each for a large loop carry then exercise routine. It looked like this:

Round 1

  • Carry your ruck, bell, and sandbag for 1 lap followed by
  • 30 Calf Raises, 30 KB Swings, and 30 Merkins

Round 2

  • Carry 2 items for 2 laps followed by
  • 20 Curls, 20 Flutters w/ a Press, and 20 Squats

Round 3

  • Carry 1 item for 3 laps followed by
  • 10 Burpees, 10 Sit-up to Press, and 10 Bench Press

NMM
We often ask God to lighten our load, but sometimes He strengthens us by teaching us how to carry it. That looks like showing up when you’re tired. It means investing in others even when you see little results. It means leading when recognition is absent. It means remaining faithful to your mission instead of being fixated on measurable success.

Keep going, especially when it’s tough. The process is shaping you into a stronger man.

Dark Helmet

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
THE THANG: We did a couple of loops around the Kingsplex, with some bear crawling and crawl bearing in honor of the Other Band Camp (@UGU3XR5RP – not present), some running up Textile Hill, and lots of NOT stepping on the grass…
We wrapped with a Mary tribute to Iron Balls McGinty. All in all, it was real nice time…

Moleskine:The mumblechatter was on point this morning. Pollo’s balls dominated the list of topics of discussion… whether it was that they were encased in metal, or being eaten by handsome crabs, we all now know too much and will need to scrub our brains.

MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Prayers for many things and a call to give to Living Waters International…

Go do some freaking good today. You're way more capable of it than you give yourself credit for.
