“you’ve got to have the mentality to show up every day of your life. No matter what life throws at you, it’s your responsibility to show up to the Colosseum of life and prepare for battle” – David Goggins
The weather wasnt going to cooperate today but that didn’t stop 7 brave PAX from emerging from their first world comfort zone to do something difficult in hopes of mental, physical and spiritual growth.
Warm up:
SSH x 15
Wind Mill x 15
Imperial walker (sorta x15ish)…YHC lost count twice eventually recovering
Merkin x15
Hand release Merkins x15
SSH x15
Wind Mill x15
Imperial walker x15
Lil baybay crunch x15
Dying cockroach x15
Lung walk across parking lot (curb to curb) and backwards jog back to start
Now that back wet/front wet/warm up complete. Time to get started.
The Thang:
First, YHC alerted the men to a burpee timer of 3mins. 10 burpees OYO to be performed when notified
THANG 1 – Nickels and Dimes
Mosey to playground.
Nickels (5 pullups) and Dimes (10 pushups) EMOM with plank rest as needed in between sets. 2-3 burpees breaks during this time (as needed). 10 rounds total (10mins)
THANG 2
Mosey back up to school near tennis courts. Men paired up.
While one man is performing wall squat, the other bear crawls up the driveway and then sprints the upper part of the parking area back around to the lower. Partners switch places. Rinse and repeat x3-4 (as time permits). Burpee breaks continued as needed (at least another 3 I believe)
I lost track but in total we should have had approx. 9 burpee breaks. Was shooting for 100 total. Maybe next time 🙂
CoT:
Tartan trot coming up. Most men running 10k but there is a 5k option still.
Curveball shared upcoming service opportunity with possible workout also (west end area). More details to come.
Curveball also took us out with prayers of thanks for health and the ability to breakdown mental barriers to grow stronger physically, mentally, spiritually. Amen to that!
