Devo: Over The Edge
Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. (NLT) ( James 1:19 )

Notice how the word “all” is used? No one is immune. It just takes the perfect storm for a personal situation to put you over the edge. Before you feel justified to say something damaging, remember this verse. And if you’re on the receiving end, be “quick” to forgive and “slow” to resent.

Moleskin:   YHC was on time this morning.  However must have been talking a little much for Chum’s liking. He yelled at me to get started.  I don’t know how a guy who has Q’ed 2 BC’s in the last 2 years and maybe only attended 10 can yell at someone to get started but he did it.  We had two new comers to Thunderstruck plank merkins.  They don’t like it any more than the rest of you.  We have a new member of the elite group of guys who has made it through the entire song without breaking plank.  Easy In.  Sugar was pushing to be the only one to complete the song twice in one workout.  We ran out of time.  Defib is an absolute monster.  He nearly made it all the way to the baseballs in the time it took me to run there and back.   By the end we all had steam coming off our heads.  Always a pleasure to be in the center of the circle.  Thanks for showing up guys and PIMW

The Thang:
-Already had blocks at the start of the workout, gather (w/ block) at the entrance to the dirt parking lot.
-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.
-The exercises included tricep extensions, block press, Lt. Dan’s, Curls for the Girls, Overhead Press, Calf Raise w/ Block, Lawn Mowers, LBCs.
-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)
-Stow Blocks

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.

Moleskin: YHC tried this weinke about a year ago. There was some tweaks to improve. There’s still work to be done. This weinke will work!

Devo: Yesterday, a large group/mob of Donald Trump stormed and raided the U.S. Capitol. There’s a lot to unpack in our nation. We all have different religious, political, etc. views. Bi-partisanship has done a lot to dictate the thoughts and actions of American citizens. Without calling any one side out I shared 2 Instagam posts from the andcampaign who looks at politics from a Biblical perspective, and left it at that.

Deconstructing and modifying the Cannoli Flame

The Cannoli Flame is an accountability workout I created for myself years ago: Run a mile, then do 10 burpees, 20 LBCs, 30 merkins, 40 squats and 50 flutter kicks. Repeat the run and the exercises four times. For a fun Saturday at Bedrock, I had the PAX deconstruct the Cannoli Flame by running to pre-placed cones throughout the park where the exercises were performed. We also got blocks and started with 20 curls for Milton’s wife. Here’s how the rest went:

Run to first cone: Instead of burpees, we did 10 overhead press with the Beast.

Run to second cone: 20 LBCs

Run to third cone: 30 merkins

Run to fourth cone: 40 squats

Run to fifth cone: 50 flutter kicks

Then go back down the ladder by running back to the cones in order, and finally the blocks and curls. Repeat until time is called. The Wescott Park is a deceptively large space. I logged nearly four miles during the workout and most others were clustered around that number.

We broke down the Cannoli Flame at Bedrock on Dec. 12.

Devo: To Pray For
And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groaning’s that cannot be expressed in words. (NLT) ( Romans 8:26 )

Don’t know how to pray or unsure of what to say? Don’t worry, just spend time with God and count on the Holy Spirit to pray on your behalf. Talking with God is an important part of a growing spiritual life. Do you forget to pray regularly? Share your thoughts with God while you do a daily habit such as brushing your teeth. This will help jump start your prayer life. Or write down your prayers in a journal to detail out your thoughts

Moleskin:  It is Defib’s birthday.  Defib is very fast.  Dri Prime requested Thunderstruck as we were walking up to the flag to begin BC.  I am not one to disappoint a fan.  I made it work.  M&M and High Stick shared with me they thought I was a mother….. nevermind you get the point.   

It’s just after 9am and my legs already feel like that baby giraffe learning to walk.  Ain’t gonna be a good day.
