Introduction
Tiny Bubbles & myself (Wet Wipe) talked prior to Covid about joining together for a Co-Q. Obviously, when Covid hit it had different plans stopping all in person workouts. Once we hit Phase/Stage 4 we decided to give our idea a go. We had a very simple approach, I will bring the music & Tiny Bubbles will bring the biblical message.
We chose a playlist together & we created our workout.

This was a rewarding experience for me (Wet Wipe) putting together a workout with a biblical theme. I appreciate Tiny Bubbles reaching out to me months ago prior to Covid with this great idea. It was great to see he was still willing to collaborate even after the long break.
My ending thoughts are very simple don’t rule out ideas because they take you out of your comfort zone.There is no way I would have thought I would be apart of a Q like this, but here I am and I couldn’t be more thankful of the experience.
The bible is made up of songs known as Psalms. There are 5 different kinds – praise, wisdom, royal, thanksgiving, and lament (full spectrum of soul). We exercised while being mindful of the message we were receiving through the lyrics.
