QIC: Chappie

YHC’s first official Q at Milford was a swap with an under-the-weather Ruxpin, so it was assumed he was out. And he was. Then YHC became aware that Gump was licking his Calf-wounds from Saturday’s workout. Needless to say YHC was wondering who might show. All worries aside we had 4 PAX break the grip of the fartsack, win THAT FIRST BATTLE and post at F3 First State’s newest AO. (Hey, this thing still needs a name!) The core group here is strong! Let’s keep planting, growing, and serving small workout groups of men for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Though YHC didn’t use all the steps he had previously threatened to incorporate when he got onto the Q schedule, we still hit a select flight right on the AO. Here’s how the PAX took a step in the right direction…

Warm-O-Rama:

• SSH – 18 IC
• Imperial Walker – 18 IC (Don’t worry Papa Bear, they’ll grow on you!)
• Hillbilly Walker – 18 IC
• BTTG Squat – 2 rounds (Butt to the Ground, Single Squat, as low as you can go, with a 10-count)
• Schwartz Jacks – 18 IC (Um…don’t worry Papa Bear, they’ll grow on you!)
• Plank Jacks – 18 IC

The Thang: Wosey about 10 steps to brick wall surrounding library amphitheater…

• Raccoon Walk on top of wall to library steps, 5 Irkins/5 Derkins at each elevation change. Total combined Irkins/Derkins: 50

Library Steps:

• 7-1 Burpees at the top. PAX started with 7 Burpees at the top, ran down steps, did 5-35 Plankjacks at the bottom. Burpees descending 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (Total: 28 Burpees). Plankjacks ascending 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 (Total: 140 Plankjacks).
• Side-stepping The bonus round: 2 of 4 PAX completed Crawlbear up and Bearcrawl down the library side steps.

Mosey to the opposite side of the library for the 3rdF: A repeat of a previous 3rdF due to the fact that prep time was cut short the night prior because of an ad hoc budget committee meeting for YHC. Based upon Exodus 33:13-15, YHC challenged PAX that in order to be a good leader, each of us must first be led. Led by God Himself, by His presence. We must NOT be willing to move ahead, go forward, or lead in our homes, workplaces, and communities in which we serve, unless we are first ensured of the Lord’s leadership in our lives. When we become aware of the absence of God’s presence, our response must be to cry out to Him like children crying out to their father, thinking they’re lost on a trail in the woods (when it turns out the Father had just hidden his presence behind a tree). There’s more to that story…ask Chappie.

Back to work on the library parking lot:

The Thang 2: Parking lot slow burn, bottom to top, mosey return to bottom

• Bearcrawl bottom to top – 10 Merkins OYO
• Crawlbear bottom to top – 20 Delmarva Drydocks OYO
• Dragon Crawl bottom to top – 30 American Hammers OYO
• Lt. Dan bottom to top – 40 Prisoner Squats OYO
• High Step Nur bottom to top – 50 Seal Jacks OYO

Time’s up, circle up!
