7×7+7 = Tired of Bear Crawls

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions:  62 degrees and wet

FNGs:  None

COP:  SSH, Don Quiote, LBAC, TTT, Monkey Humpers, Overhead Claps, Moroccan Night Club

The Thang:

Mosey to the block pile and each man gets two bricks and a block

The PAX complete seven rounds of sevens with a 20 yard run in between exercises. The exercises included Overhead Claps with the bricks, Overhead Presses, Pickle Pounders, Pickle Pushers, Squats, Merkins, LBCs, to name a few… After each round of Sevens the PAX headed to the pickle ball court to complete one bear crawl loop around the square on the court. After the final round of Sevens, we bear crawled the square seven times. This was an homage to Joshua fighting the Battle of Jericho which was referenced in our devo.

Mary:  No time for Mary today

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo: In Joshua 1, we see God commissioning Joshua as the new leader of the Israelites after Moses’s passing. The Israelites stood on the brink of war as they prepared to enter Canaan and God commanded Joshua to be strong and courageous. YHC made the point that this passage isn’t about Joshua being strong and courageous by his own merit, but rather by staying in communion with God through his Word and prayer, God can make one strong and courageous for the mission ahead.

Moleskin:  The seven bear crawl loops at the end were tough. The PAX made it through like champs. It had been a while since YHC Q’d a workout and it was nice to be back in the saddle. See you in the gloom.

Moleskin: Microwave noted this would be short because there was not a lot of mumble chatter today. One commentator’s note:  All cinder blocks are not created equal. T-Claps to Defib and Splinter for having the big boy blocks today.

Mosey home stopping for Overhead Claps and Hammer Curls.

Mary:  No time

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo:   In Revelation 5 the prayers of the saints are depicted as incense in the throne room of God. YHC shared how the prayers of believers are all heard by God, with no exception. He doesn’t grow weary of hearing our prayers and doesn’t miss any. Take heart that there is a God who wants to hear your prayers.

Moleskin: Another muggy July morning here in Summerville. The PAX still ran hard. The bricks added just a little more suck to the run out to Jingle’s Hill.

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions:   56 degrees

FNGs:  None

COP:  SSH, LBAC, Don Quiote, Hillbilly Terrible Ts

The Thang:

Divide into groups and split up between three stations. Each group spends 10 min at each station and then rotates.

Block Station:  Curls for the Girls, Overhead Press, Squats. Twenty Reps each. Rinse and repeat.

Tennis Court Station:  11s with LBCs and Flutter Kicks. Add suicides if you finish the 11s in under 10 minutes.

Tire Station:  Partner up and complete a combo of tire jump, Burpee, and Tire Flip. Keep going for 10 min.

Mary:  WW2 Sit-Ups, Heel Taps, Plank, Terrible Ts

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo: Quick word from Daniel 1 about not compromising. Daniel and his companions didn’t compromise their beliefs when they were told to eat the food of the king. God blessed their obedience and faithfulness. We face situations everyday where we will be tempted to compromise. Walk the straight and narrow path and don’t stray.

Moleskin:  The tire jump/flip/burpee station was certainly the most challenging for YHC. The PAX seemed to appreciate the variety of challenges brought by today’s workout. We continue to the double-digit streak at Seismic.

Conditions:  51 degrees

FNGs:  None

COP:

SSH, LBAC, Don Quiote, Overhead Claps, BAC, Monkey Humpers

The Thang:

5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1

50 Chest Presses w/the block, 40 two-count Flutter Kicks, 30 Squats w/the block, 20 Curls for the Girls, 10 Dammits

Rinse and Repeat

Mary:  WW2 Sit-Ups, Pickle Pounders, Dying Cockroach, Terrible Ts

Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo:  Always Forward. Never Backward.  YHC shared briefly about a Japanese Samurai and the character Christian from Pilgrim’s Progress. Both had armor on the front only.

For the Samurai, he would face his enemies going forward and never retreat. He would fight his way through the crowd, moving steadily forward, or die trying. He did not need to protect his backside because he would never retreat.

For Christian, when he faces Satan’s attack, he would not turn his back but rather trusted in the defense given to him by God. We can’t turn our back on the Enemy. Don’t let your guard down and fall prey to temptation.

Moleskin: The Pax was unusually quiet today, but the men were hustling trying to hit 10 total circuits. YHC failed to do Namearama. Q fail. I remember who was there, but the standard is to say all names. I’ll get it right next time.

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions:   37 degrees

FNGs:  Welcome Lug Nuts

COP:

SSH, TTT, LBAC, Don Quiote, Hillbillies, Imperial Walkers

The Thang:

20 Pickle Pounders, 20 Tire Jumps, 20 Chest Presses w/block, 20 Tricep Extensions, 20 Pull-ups, Run backwards around the tennis courts. Rinse and repeat until time is called.

Mary:  LBCs and Heel taps

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo:  Samson was a man of great strength whom God used to fight against the enemies of his people. However, Samson was a bit of an anti-hero because he was selfish and had multiple character flaws. Two main ones led to his downfall:  pride and lust.

YHC challenged the PAX to guard their marriages, relationships and hearts from pride and lust as they are snares for all men.

Moleskin: First Q of 2021 for YHC. Running backwards is always a challenge as it works our lower body muscles in a different way. Additionally, YHC hates tire jumps and they are always tough. As Milton reminded me, I only had myself to blame.

Our FNG enjoyed himself and we look forward to having Lug Nuts back in the gloom with us soon.
