Wingin’ It

YHC grabbed a Q at F3 Gashouse’s newest AO- Mount Hollywood. YHC had his Weinke locked and loaded the night before the workout. He was wakened by the sound of rain at 0230, so for the next 2 1/2 hours, he laid awake in bed modifying the Weinke. “Never mind. I’ll just wing it”. 12 men took the DRP and rolled out of the fartsack on a wet Monday morning to start the day off right. With half the PAX in the RESPECT age group, Sargento sleep walking, and Sister Act’s back outta whack, YHC considered taking it easy on the guys. Then again, this is F3, not FIA. 5:30 hits and YHC attempted to give the PAX their money’s worth.

Warmup:

  • Seal Jacks X 15 IC
  • Gravel Pickers X 15 IC
  • Morr. Nightclubs X 15 IC
  • Chinooks X 10 IC

PLEDGE

The Thang:

Mosey to Brokeback wall by Ida Rankin Elementary for 2 rounds of: 10 Dips IC, 10 Derkins SC.

Next, mosey to Wells Fargo bank under the drive-thru area for some ATMs (because we’re at a bank).

10 Alternating Shoulder Taps, 10 Tempo Merkins, 10 Merkins. Immediately go to core work with 10 Freddie Mercuries IC, 10 Flutter Kicks IC, 10 Plank Jacks IC. Rinse and Repeat for a total of 3 rounds. This was a real crowd pleaser.

Mosey to the Presbyterian church parking lot for some 4 corners escalator.

Corner #1- 20 Squats, NUR to corner #2

Corner #2- 20 Squats, 40 CDD’s. Bear crawl to corner #3.

Corner #4- 20 Squats, 40 CDD’s, 60 LBC’s, 80 SSH. Plank for the 6.

Mosey to the White Wall behind BB&T bank for some wall work. Starting at 10 reps IC and decreasing by 2 each round, perform: 1) Dirty Hookups and 2) Hip Slappers. Note to future Q’s at this AO- Dirty Hookups on a glossy painted wall with wet gloves/ hands= PAX potentially needing emergency dental work. Q fail. Broke nearly ate the asphalt on that one. Sorry, brother.

Quick Mosey back to the flag with 3 1/2 minutes left. Circle up for some Iron Hulk. PAX made it to 8 Merkins/ 32 air presses when time was up.

Prayer Requests:

YHC took us out in prayer.

Moleskin:

My Pastor made a statement yesterday that YHC had never heard before. Although not verbatim, he said “We are more wicked than we are willing to admit, but at the same time we are loved more than we can ever imagine”. He then stated Romans 5:8- “But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners”. No matter how low we believe we have gone, on our worst days, God’s love for us is just as strong then as it is on our “better” days. YHC sat thinking long and hard on that one. It’s almost unbelievable and inconceivable that His love is that strong and unwavering for each and every one of us. Furthermore, we are to extend that type of love to each and every person we meet.

Thank You for the chance to lead,

Slaw
