Introduction
I’ve been working my way around all of the west AOs the last couple of weeks and had the pleasure of leading at each of them. I like movement and that was what I asked the PAX to be ready for. A couple of guys came in really hot, because of that, the other PAX had to perform burpees until they made it out of their car. Don’t blame me.

“Burpee Break”
Explained the partner exercises.
One PAX runs a short loop while the other PAX performs the exercises. The PAX performing the exercises is all subject to the “Burpee Break.” The Burpee Break is announced by a random timer. Each time it is called out the PAX will stop their exercise and perform three (3) burpees and then return to their cumulative count. Their are some pretty evil planned burpee breaks that are only about 20-30 seconds apart.
The exercises are:
100 Hand Release Merkins
200 LBC’s
300 Rocky Balboas (each tap one)
200 Should Taps (each tap one)
100 Curls
100 Big Boys
Mosey back to flags for short Mary which included plank and American Hammers.
Circle of Trust
We lifted up prayers form some brothers that had interviews that day, prayers for the PAX that are dealing with health issues, and all of the unspoken prayers in our hearts.
Naked Man Moleskin
I started feeling stressed the past couple of days because of some matters going on at work. We are already operating with limited staff due to the job market (can’t find people) and now I’m losing a person that has been in our office for the past 8 years and there is not a long-term solution that moment. Couple that with a bunch of homework with my 8th grader and her impending trip to Washington DC and I was losing focus. Then I remembered what our brother Tiny Bubbles said in one of his Qs. Don’t worry about anything, instead put your faith in God and thank Him for everything he has done. I always find that helpful. I have to remind myself that I am not in control and I need to step back and realize that it will all work out.
