*NMM This was about the most talkative group I have ever Q’d. Lots of discussion about my choice of Christmas songs in the playlist, Mexican food before a workout, what might be in SA’s wife’s pocketbook, Pallbearer spending money on a haircut, my ability to count, where to put your hands, when will the Mayor wear a long sleeve shirt and many “that’s what she said’s”. Merry Christmas you bunch of lunatics!

Elevens: Big Boys/Perfect-Form Merkins

Word:

“By nature, man is a sinner, and by choice, he proves that his nature is sinful. We are sinners not because we sin, we sin because we are sinners.”

But, talking about gifts, Romans 3:23,24 says:

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 

How? 2 Cor. 5:21 says:

 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 

So, Jesus came to earth ( which we will be celebrating), He, the perfect Son of God.. took our sin on Himself,  took the Father’s wrath for sin in our place so that we don’t have to face that wrath, died, and rose again, defeating sin and death. 

So, the best gift: salvation.. a gift, something for which we don’t have to work.

spell Gator’s last name

It was a great morning. Nutria was looking for some Q’s to spend a little time talking about living 3rd, and it was the right time for me to do this. We had a solid crowd of 8 and got started on time with a disclaimer and pledge then a really long warmup, at least compared with my usual warmup. At some point we were talking about how to spell Gator’s last name. Full disclosure, he works at the hospital and I knew it would be tough because I’ve seen it on his name badge and probably on some emails also. We got the first letter right and that was all. Show to know the correct spelling.

We moseyed to the end of the covered area, quick discussion about living 3rd, then started the exercises: jump all the way back to front of covered area then mosey to start. Bear crawl same distance, mosey back. Same thing with lunges then mosey to back of school the wall. It was a nice wall, well lit, little bit of grass nearby, no scuff marks…..really nice. So we did some hip slappers and talked a bit more about living 3rd. We actually talked about NOT living 3rd, and that if you don’t live 3rd you are a jackass (thanks for remembering this term Tesla). So at this point, we had to do some jackass kicks on that beautiful wall. I was a bit disappointed that we didn’t have any donkey noises but that’s ok. I’ll get over it. Next was a quick mosey to the back parking lot for some suicides with Bobby Hurley’s then some 22’s with LBC’s and Leppard Merkins (getcho’ butt down Leppard) aka CDD’s. I asked for suggestions for the exercises and came really close to over-ruling the LBCs with Burpees but showed some restraint. Not sure that was a good idea but we went with it. After completing the 22’s, we moseyed around to the track for a couple Bojangles biscuits then some partner work. At about this time it was close to the end so we moseyed back to the flag and finished with a friendly group “hello Mrs. Breaker” that would make Eddie Haskell proud.

Living Third-if you don’t know what this is, you probably should. Living Third is about serving others-put God/the higher power first, community (people around you-family, friends, others) second, and yourself third. To do this, you need to make sure you are not struggling to stay afloat and on track with your own issues. This starts with the daily exercise/first F/red pill….whatever you want to call it. You need to get your own stuff right before you can help others and be a servant instead of just a survivor. This is a whole lot easier with things like a blade/stone relationship, a shield lock, or at least some people around you that you can call “BROTHER.” Don’t take that term lightly-giving it or receiving that label “brother” is a big deal. It’s not the same to me as a friend. If it’s the same thing to you, I think you are missing out. Chew on that for awhile then think about whether you are gonna fartsack.

Whoopee
