Pax lined up in the field facing Hoffa and did one round of:

  • Murder bunny to the base of Hoffa
  • Rifle carry up Hoffa
  • 50 bent over rows at the top of Hoffa
  • Rifle carry back down
  • Reverse murder bunny back to start

Pax moved to Cooties where we targeted doing 50 reps of the following exercises, with a 12 min time limit:

  • Pull ups
  • We’re not worthies
  • Grave diggers
  • Good morning upright rows (this was done with two Baby O blocks

50 reps of each of those in 12 minutes was quite a stretch

Thang 3
Pax moved to The Shop where we targeted doing 80 reps of the following exercises, with a shorter 9 min time limit (just for the sake of ending on time)

  • Incline plank single arm rows
  • Pull overs
  • Twisty curls with two Baby O blocks

80 reps of each of these was an extreme stretch… but hey it kept people moving.

My M came home from her weekend trip with friends overwhelmed with gratitude for me as a husband and father. I responded by saying I’m so glad you have this shining image of me right now, because I need to confess a couple failures of mine over the past couple days.

While I was more focused on my failures, Erin shared with me the bigger picture of how awesome I’m doing. I’m certain this is true of every man a regular part of F3. It’s an intentional decision to almost daily challenge yourself to grow as a HIM.

So be reminded of two things:

  • You’re doing GREAT! You’re here. You show up in life in all areas. You’re doing GREAT!
  • Keep working through personal struggles you face. You’re not defined by these struggles. But be honest about them and bring them to God and your M, and you will have the power to overcome and grow.
