Probably the last time I Q'd a workout was the week of Olive back in mid-February. After nearly a month off, a post on Saturday and a Q on Monday after a hot and exhausting on the baseball diamond. Cramped and dehydrated, Big Montana gave me the option of deferring and converging. Thanks but no thanks. Need the accountability for the Pax and for myself. 4 alarms set…We got this!
As I rolled up to Eminem and then Smash Mouth blasting on my stereo, I see 4 shawdows lurking and eagly waiting their beat down. Talk of Dingo with an HC and no show had the Pax worried…but he arrived fashionably late and at 531 we were off.
Warm O Rama
Mosey to RubberMaid….Monumental as this is the first time I ever took the Pax there during a workout at Berean or Hollywood.

During YHC's hiatus, a special was being run on MudGear that I could not pass up…
Introducing Olive's F3 Deck O Pain!
Keeping it simple. Shuffle Up. Pax pull the card and only themselves to blame.
We did decline merkins, sprints, backward runs, burpees, 100 low flutters, 100 calf raises (smoking), Bulgarian split squats, american hammers (mason twist) CDD's, slow squats, walking lunges, planks and standing lunges. Great combo led to a full body workout. Various reps but the burpees were 25 and sucked based on card pulling.
Gather cards and mosey back.

First bumps
I buy coffee (for most because others really needed their caffeine and couldn't wait…but I tried.
Jazz leaves midway with a mic drop challenge about what Truth we are struggling with. In comes Eeyore very late to the party.
Discussion around book I am/trying to read about Jesus being Radical…in the sense of just find and being the truth of everyhing. We as humans know the truth but tend to bend, mold or manipulate for earthly attention and feelings…
Also touched on forgiveness…and the lack there of.
Prayers lifted for all mentioned and all unspoken.
Thanks for the opportunity to lead BM!
Live Life. Own Every Second. Never, Ever Take Anything For Granted.
