THE THANG: Pax circled up at midfield for a little F3 football. In cadence both teams (facing each other on opposing 45s) completed an exercise (starting with merkins- later Squats, SSH, Bonnie Blairs). At the end of cadence exercise “offense” bear crawled toward the Goal line while defense sprinted to opposite goal line and back to catch bear crawling pax and therefore restart with the offense and defense switched. Evens won 2-1.

March Madness battleship saw three teams completing exercises written on plates and tossed into another teams zone. At the end of the college fight song loser had Merkins. MARY: flutter kicks, Penguin crunches, planks

Here are six common bad habits:

1. Conflict avoidance
2. Impulsiveness
3. Blame-shifting
4. Insisting on control
5. Perfectionism
6. Power hunger

My challenge to you is to pick one of these that bothers you the most and figure out one way to tackle this the next time that bad habit rears it’s ugly head.

COT: Routines are so important! Start working on you daily routines, to include how you treat yourself (workout/eat well), how you treat and respect your love ones, and those around you. Good routines can sound restrictive, but in fact they help free up your time and mind, allowing you to place more of your focus on the big things. The things that will move you and everyone around you forward.
