Moleskine:
Depression is real and tough… factors = life events, news, weather, chemical imbalance, etc. I’ve had bouts of depression or dysthymia off and on the past several years… negative thoughts, spiraling down, leading to low motivation, lack of energy, avoidance of things. Last May, I felt depressed and didn’t come to F3 for a whole month. I started up on medication again… started doing things, and then was feeling better, increased confidence… and it helped that I had my sisters to talk with, my wife, a few friends who listened and hung out. If you know someone who is depressed reach out to them… and if you are depressed – reach out to people you trust… safe people who will listen and try and help.

Moleskine: From Marcus Aurelius
Never be overheard complaining…Not even to yourself. In https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/meditations, Marcus speaks to this idea over and over and over again: Look inward, not outward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpPDkKjpr64. Don’t meddle in the affairs of others. When you see someone acting objectionably, remember when you have acted that way. https://dailystoic.com/a-stoic-response-to-complaining/ because they have too much to improve on at home. When we make the distinction between https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3STjOKmuJhc, we see very quickly that it is only our own decisions and actions and words and thoughts that are worthy of our attention. Everything else is the business of everyone else.

F3 Pre-Valentine’s Day Q – Love requires curiosity, sacrifice, connection, and partnership.

Warm-O-Rama
Blood flow matters; if it stops, things die. The same is true in relationships. SSH x 30
Cindy Fondle (stretching with the weight in different positions) Cindy Swings – 15 with manly grunts

Partner Mosey + Conversation
Love starts with listening before lifting.
Mosey with a partner toward the sauna location, while conversing with your mosey partner.

Beatdown 1 – Give > Take
Love is a lot of give, not always take.
2 Rounds – Partners stay together
Partner Cindy Merkins
Start left side of Cindy
Merkin → move right → merkin → up and over → repeat back
10 total partner merkins
Seated Cindy Reach-Arounds
Sit back-to-back
Pass Cindy left → right for 10
Then right → left for 10
Big Boy Cindy Pass
Partners interlock feet
One pax Big Boy up, passes Cindy at the top
Alternate reps – 10 total

Beatdown 2 – Connection (Stay Linked)
Stay connected even when it’s uncomfortable. Relationships are never 50/50. Sometimes it’s 30/70, sometimes 0/0, but staying together even at 0/0 is still together. Also, don’t do cocaine, unless you’re a bear. Apparently, it makes for great cinema and good motivation for better bear crawls for HIMs.

Partner Back-to-Back with Interlocking Arms Shuffle (Down the parking lot) Wall Sit
Hold 45 seconds
Partner Back-to-Back with Interlocking Arms Shuffle (Down the parking lot) Bear Crawl Down
Cocaine-Bear Crawl Back

Beatdown 3 – Partnership (Shared Load)
Real partnership means shared weight; even if you aren’t carrying the load, you still have the important role of encouraging your partner (that’s the hidden yet vital weight that enriches your relationship).

2 Rounds of:
20 Cindy plank patty cake (hold plank on Cindy’s while alternating right and left high fives with partner) 10 Man Makers
Partner 1 works while Partner 2 encourages
Switch ever rep to maintain momentum and pace

Partner Carries (Trust & Support)
Sometimes love means carrying more than your share.

2 Rounds of:
Rotate through carries down and back:
Farmer Carry, Fireman Carry, Bear Hug Carry
One partner stabilizes and holds Cindy while doing flutter kicks, while the other runs down, skips back two times, then the partners switch.

Mosied back to the flag

Picklepound Party
Circle up
Pickle Pound x 20
J-Lo x 10 (Left, Right 1)
Monkey Humpers x 10 (eye contact is optional)
Hip Thrusters x 10
OYO until time while we jammed to 5 minutes of 90’s and 2000’s R&B Love Jams.

COT

John 15:13 – “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”

Before Valentine’s Day reminds us of romance, let’s remember:
Love is communication, connection, sacrifice, and showing up for your brothers, even when it’s heavy.

MoleSkin

Everyone is going through something. We need each other. I am thankful for these HIM’s vulnerability and brotherhood.

LORD’s Prayer to close
