Hill Work 11-21 style

I saw Volt and Westside getting in some EC as I rolled into Folsom.  I was trying to shake off the tiredness from a late night Board meeting.  Thanks to Sarlacc and Ball Joint for the reminders last night during the meeting!

Mosey to the Pavilion.

11s – 10 Australian Mountain Climbers on the wall/1 Dips on the ledge. The Men that showed up crushed this in minutes, time to step it up.

I looked up and saw the beautiful Hill going up to the Playground. Alright, let’s have some fun.

21s – Merkins at the bottom and squats at the top. The men pushed hard on this one and kept it going strong. The Hill was a beast, but no one faltered. We finished the last round together as a whole group.

40 I waited patiently for the Lord;
    he inclined to me and heard my cry.
He drew me up from the pit of destruction,
    out of the miry bog,
and set my feet upon a rock,
    making my steps secure.
He put a new song in my mouth,
    a song of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear,
    and put their trust in the Lord.

2022.01.10 The Sword – Fruitful Run

8 HIMs showed up to put in some miles. We all met back at 6:15 and I shared the Word with them.

The Tree and Its Fruit

15 “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. 16 You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. 18 A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit. 19 So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. 20 Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions.

True Disciples

21 “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. 22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ 23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’

Building on a Solid Foundation

24 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. 26 But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. 27 When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

28 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, 29 for he taught with real authority—quite unlike their teachers of religious law.

 

I shared with them the inspiration they have been in my life and how we are called to lift each other up in Christ.

Core Strength

We had several HIMs show up for today’s post.

We then moseyed to the playground to begin the thang.

We then moseyed back to the Amphitheater for the next level workout.

Rinse and repeat and repeat and repeat…

 

The mumblechatter showed up in round 4, but they all enjoyed the 440 LBCs and 100 BigBoys!

Supporting each other

I picked up this Q for Ball joint due to an injury and I thought it would be good for us to remember that part of F3 is supporting each other.

Warm up:

10 Don Quixote’s

We moseyed to the Tennis Courts

We then circled up and did Presses, arm extensions, burpees, sit ups, cherry pickers as pax called them out.
