4 met before dawn to address the battle between personal distance and lifting/pushing/pulling. Fortunately, both were achieved. Good times and pain were had by all. It went a little something like this.

– 25 block squat thrusters
– 25 merkins
– 25x curls
– 25 burpees
– 25x storm troopers
– 25x SSH

Parking Lot interlude:

Round 2:
– same as round 1 except YHC gladly moves storm troopers up between thrusters and merkins to give the ol' shoulders a break
– RECOVER
Parking Lot interlude:
– monkey drill left
– monkey drill right
– quardraphelia
Round 3:
– same as round 2

YHC's brain and body are wrecked

Quick circuit mixing step ups, toe ups, and hanging pistols

Reflection: Joshua 1:7
"“Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. "
– some people seem to be feeling pretty hopeless due to the corona virus excitement
– this was a good reminder that in times of trouble, people are going to be looking for something to soothe their concern.
– Our hope is in Jesus and His redeeming love. We need to be strong and courageous to share our faith, or to become involved in someone else's situation.
– We should stay focused on what our mission is here on earth; not to be distracted or turn to the right or the left.
– How can you be God's hands and feet in these times? Lots of opportunities.
moleskine:
– this workout was loosely based on a Harrisburg workout, they did 4 rounds for time
– but I added the block thrusters to their squats and didn't want to roll around in the pollen for WWII's
– great to have Dandelion with us for the warm up and to see him focused and kicking butt in the back playground
– I was setting up a speaker when it was time for the first LBH run. Anvil and Shirley take off, and I instinctively say, "I'll catch up." Then I realize it's Anvil and Shirley. There is no catching up with Anvil and Shirley. THey are quick and beastly.
– Anvil's knee still asks questions when he starts running. Anvil says "Shut Up" and gets it done regardless.
– Shirley Q next week; then Anvil.
Really enjoyed the banter. Somehow you guys made this fun. My body hated me all day and through the night.
Thank you for allowing me to lead.
