Mosey to back BB&T parking lot downtown near the nice well-lit wall for Angry 7’s!
7 reps of an IN CADENCE exercise, run a lap around the bank and return for a word about Anger while we catch our breath.
7 Merkins, run. In your anger, do not sin. “One who is quick tempered displays folly or foolishness.”
7 LBC’s, 7 Merkins, run. “Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city.” Patience is often an antidote for anger. Take that extra time to be patient in conversation especially with family.
7 Low Slow Squats, LBC’s, Merkins, run. “Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.” Grudges eventually hurt you. I consider this essential to staying married for 31 years. My M is great at this and I am improving.
7 Hip Slappers (Where’s Huck?), Low Slow Squats, LBC’s, Merkins, run. “Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger.” Reminder to take a deep breath before we speak and think about what we are saying.
7 WWI (probably shouldn’t be done In Cadence but we did any way), Hip Slappers, Low Slow Squats, LBC’s, Merkins, run. “Fools give full vent to their anger, but the wise bring calm.” Think of someone you know who is patient and calm and try to be more like that.
7 Monkeys Humpers, WWI, Hip Slappers, Low Slow Squats, LBC’s, Merkins, run. “It is to ones glory to overlook an offense.” Again, my M is great at this.
7 Flying Squirrels (CSpan special), Monkey Humpers, WWI, Hip Slappers, Low Slow Squats, LBC’s, Merkins, All In Cadence, run. “A gentle answer turns away wrath.” This is essential especially when dealing with your children.

1 minute Wall Sit with a few presses included.

Rugby Sprints. An exercise performed until Q says Go and then sprint across parking lot, sprint back across parking lot and then walk back across parking lot. Sprint should be faster pace than your previous lap speed. Little Baby Flutter Crunches, Freddie Macs, Jump Lunges (Sister Act’s fault for these), Merkins.

Mosey back to the school parking lot.

Announcements: 40 day challenge starting today, Convergence 11-10 at Yank at 7am, 3rd F event after that Convergence on 11-10 with Tiger and Squirt speaking.
Prayer Requests: Shad Rap’s M and son.

COT

*Nice to be out on this cool morning. We got in almost 2 miles and plenty of reps of arms, core, legs and a little speed work. I wouldn’t have wanted to be the person at the bank machine when 10 men started running from the back of the parking lot toward their car. Sister Act was kind of quiet, so that was unusual. Slaw posting on a weekday morning was good to see and he was scraping the ground on the Low Slow Squats. We call those Slaw Squats at Midoriyama. Orangeman has been training for the half in Belmont and it sounds like he is ready. Shad Rap has his VQ Thursday at the Goat. Nice to see Freon posting as he lives close by and just runs up for the workout. Virus was running fast this morning on his laps around the bank. Always good to see all of the Mount Hollywood regulars. Tesla was War Daddy (oldest) and Shad Rap was War Baby (youngest). Until next time.
