Start/ 1 – Always 5 Burpees, Then first round same spot 35- curls, run past next 3 stations returning to Station 1/Start..STOP Do 5 burpees, run to station 2. 35- Mercans’, Run all the way back to START, 5 burpees, run to station 3, 35- OHP, weight plates, 25#,45#, 40&42# sandbags, 25# kettle bell. Choose your weight and get at it! Run forward to Start, Stop.. 5 burpees.. run forward all the way to Station 4 – 35- Monkey Humpers.. return to start, 5 Burpees, then 25- Curls… Repeat all the way around again. Reps at each station we’re always 35,25,15,5. Only Chum and I were able to just about finish with 4 minutes left. Where we did AB work.. WW1, Freddie Mercuries, American Hammers, Heal Taps.

Good AAR.. on a cold and windy morning it kept us moving and allowed for pax to really be the controller of their own destiny. Able to push at hard as they like.

Circle of Trust

Reflected on the previous nights 3rdF of volunteering at Hesed House ( a homeless shelter in Aurora). A group of us fine F3 MEN donated, prepared, served, and cleaned up for very appreciative folks the night before Thanksgiving.

Prayers to Jesus to watch over and bless our families and those abroad.
