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.

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.

Pledge and COT

Announcements: February Q sheet is up.  Convergence at the Ditch on Saturday.

Devo: Try to keep learning.  Learn new skills and new things.  Learn more about the things you think you know well.

Moleskin: I rarely Q outside of Bedrock, but Microwave asked for some help at Seismic, so I was happy to help out.  I hadn’t worked out at Doty in a while, so I decided to keep it simple and do a cardio/leg beatdown in one small location.  Running around town is a good workout, but you can also do cardio in a small space with the right exercises.  I tried to keep everyone moving and keep the heartrates high.  The mumble chatter got lighter as we went along, so I think I succeeded.  It was great to finally lead the #tipofthespear.

Block Party… sort of

-Slow mosey around the dirt parking lot
-Easy In would call out an exercise and the pax would do as many reps until they burnout.  First pax to fall out has to do 5 burpees.  Every other pax would do 3 burpees once they reached failure (except for the last remaining pax, he would not have to do burpees). After failure, hold plank or join back in until last man is standing.  Everyone then moseys around the parking lot and the next exercise is called.

-During these exercises, Easy In would be playing songs that came from movies.  The first pax to identify the movie that the song came from would then have to hand out 10 burpees to the pax of their choice (but cannot choose a pax that had already been chosen to the do the burpees before)

Announcements: Still need Qs for the rest of January

Moleskin: Easy In had done his first co-Q several months ago, so it was time to get him back out to lead the crew so he could attain full Q status.  This was a fun, inventive workout that allowed for a lot of good mumble chatter.  The competition aspect was fun as well, even if we knew that Defib would win every round.  Welcome to FNG Shooter McGavin.
