No Props, No Tokens, No man left behind! How hard can that be? Let's Circle up and find out!
Circle the wagons – means we go to our right until we get back to our current spot in the circle. We'll originally it did…, but with 4 men present we made a new (slightly larger circle) instead of runing in a square 🙁
Quick stretch, and a few windmills, then… Mosey up near the road for a spot under a different light and to watch the cars go by while we work.
1 round looks like this:
10 IC SSH
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (mosey)
10 IC Tony Hawks
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (mosey)
10 IC Squats
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (high knees)
10 IC Windmills
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (butt kickers)
10 IC LBC
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (mosey)
10 IC Mountain Climbers
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (lunge walk)
10 IC Allen Iversons (basketball dribble)
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (bear crawl)
10 IC Dying Cockroach
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (shuffle – facing in)
10 IC Cotton Pickers
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (shuffle – facing out)
10 OYO Burpees
3 OYO Merkins
Circle the wagons (backward lunge)
We repeated 2.6 times, for 78 merkins, not counting the burpees.
Reflection
Circling the wagons comes from times of attack, when the wagons were circled for protection.
We circle up in fellowship, but all our lives come under attack in one way or another.
As a circle we are one.
If one of us is under attack, let all of us provide strength and courage, and remind each other that God is still with us even in hard times.
Deuteronomy 31:66 says:
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
