Through the Storm

Nice crowd at the Storm this morning, 17 PAX clocked in and ready to go to work at 05:30! We started with a short disclaimer, the Pledge and what has become my typical warmup of 5 Burpee’s OYO. Let’s mosey!

First stop is the roundabout in front of the school for a little core work:

25 American Hammer’s IC

10 Big Boy’s OYO

25 LBC’s IC

10 Big Boy’s OYO

25 Flutter Kicks IC

10 Big Boy’s OYO

25 Mountain Climbers IC

10 Big Boy’s OYO

Continue with the mosey around the back of the school for some 10 to 1’s at the loading dock. 10 Merkins at the bottom, jump up on the dock and do 10 Squats. Rinse and repeat with 9 reps, 8….all the way to 1.

Next up was a mosey over to the student parking lot for some partner work. Start in the middle of the lot with 10 Booyah Merkins IC. One partner runs to one end of the lot and does 10 Little Gumby in the Woods while the other partner runs to the opposite end and does 10 Bobby Hurley’s. Meet back in the middle then swap ends. Rinse and repeat all the way to 1.

The PAX are pushing the pace at this point and we’re doing great on time. Let’s grab some wall and do 3 sets of 10 Dirty Hookups and 10 IW Squats. There was a good bit of mumble chatter at this point about whether or not YHC could hear the train or was just ignoring it. I think I actually heard 2 trains, so 10 Burpee’s OYO.

Since we got the core work out of the way at the beginning, YHC wanted to leave some time at the end for a mosey instead of Mary. About 7 minutes of meandering through the parking lots and time is up.

Through the Storm

We’ve all been through a storm, are currently in one, or will experience one in the near future. We must remember that we aren’t alone, God is with us in the storms of life. He’s there to guide us through and help us repair any damage that the storm may cause. Too often, these are the only times we seek God and ask for his guidance and protection. Remember, we need God through the calm as much as we do in a storm.

Psalm 107:29 – “He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed.”
