Introduction

YHC was going for a good workout that covered upper body, abs, legs, and a little cardio. Hope I didn’t leave anything out.

Warm-O-Rama

Did a mosey to the railroad tracks and back to get the heart pumping and wake everybody up. YHC almost rolled his ankle on the curb by the tracks. Back to the flag for weed pickers, get ups, arm circles forward/backward/arm pretzels/seal claps/overhead claps. Took coupons and mats over to the Logan Park flag circle for a squat stretch.

The Thang

Message to pax: this is not a race, focus on using good form, not how fast you can get it done.

Round 1: 25 squats, merkins, reverse crunches, SSH

Round 2: 25 reverse lunges, curls, 60 second plank, SSH

Round 3: 25 step ups, overhead press, american mammer, SSH

Round 4: 25 calf raises, rows, leg raises, SSH

Completed all 4 rounds twice before time ran out. We dropped the reps from 25 to 20 for the second go around.

Circle of Trust

Praying for students and teachers starting back to school this week.

Naked Man Moleskin

YHC shared that he just started the book “Winning the war in your mind” by Craig Groeschel and shared an excerpt:

“There is an old saying that goes, ‘The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn’t exist.’ Satan doesn’t want you to believe in him, so he works subtly. He knows that if you ignore him, he can invade your mind with impunity. He can plant seeds of doubt, confusion, worry, depression, and anxiety that will continue to grow.

If you succeed at something, maybe he can convince you that you don’t need God. If you fail, he’ll try to brainwash you into thinking you’ll always be a failure.”

Double Dutch shared that apparently Craig Groeshchel is jacked, which is something else he and YHC have in common. But seriously, YHC has been battling a lot of negative self-talk and is praying that this book will help replace the lies with truth.
