A little Christmas cheer was enjoyed amongst four PAX this early morning in the Ivey Redmond Complex. Lucky Charms, Dean, Dr. Evil, and YHC (Duvet) embarked on a subtle telling of the Christmas story F3 style.
WOR
- Helicopters
- Sun God’s (YHC called them Arm Circles and was welcomed to join the F3 lexicon)
- Runner’s stretch
- Abe Vigoda’s
- Seam Rippers
The thang – mosey to a few different areas of the park to complete exercises called out all the while “listening” to Trans Siberian Orchestra.
Playground area (Gabriel visits Mary)
- Pull up’s X 15
- Imperial Squat Walkers X 15
- Rinse and repeat
Open concession area (Joseph has a dream)
- Derkins X 10
- Thigh masters X 10 one leg
- Irkins X 10
- Thigh Masters X 10 other leg
Mosey to the lights AKA Bethlehem for the census … mumble chatter indicated nothing good happens in Bethlehem … you be the judge
- Lunge walk from one light to the next
- Bear crawl to the next light
- run backward to the next light
- run forward to the next light
- Back to the entrance to the park … not towards the main road (though I may consider this for next week)
Jesus is born and placed in a manger – YHC did not have a good place in mind so Dean picked the covered concession area – good choice as I was able to add a third exercise not previously written down
- Hand release merkins X 15
- Air Chair for 30 seconds
- Stairs X 2
- Rinse and repeat
Mosey down to the lower parking lot as the wise men seek out Jesus
- Donkey Kicks X 15 (Yo-yo inspired this exercise … and completed it)
- Sprint to the next light pole
- Rinse and repeat
- Lunge walk back to the previous pole
Mary (“you write down your Mary exercise”) – yes, my brain is a little mushy by this time
- LBC’s X 15 IC
- Cindy X 15 IC
- Hammer’s X 15 IC (of varying count speed)
Prayers … lift up families who are celebrating today without a loved one for the first time.
YHC led us out. Let me also add that I am a stronger man because of this group. I lead better in the home. I am physically stronger. I am more confident to lead in the workplace. I am more willing to be bold in my faith walk. I am not perfect, but what this group offers is way more than a 45 minute beat down – it is a community of men who truly sharpen one another.
Honored to lead, humbled to be a part of the group. Merry Christmas all!
