“Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books—especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.”

“Being a role model is the most powerful form of educating…too often fathers neglect it because they get so caught up in making a living they forget to make a life.”

hamilton Let’s do Monkey Humpers on this Bridge! On second thought, no…

Date: 2024-06-03
AO: hamilton
Q: Legacy
PAX: Jag, Hobbyhorse, AI, Popeye
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
WARMUP: SSH, IMPERIAL WALKER, HILLY BILLYS, LITTLE BITTY ARM CIRCLES (AND REVERSE), CHERRY PICKERS, WILLY MAYS HAYES, DOWNWARD DOG, WGS
THE THANG: A “JG” Variant. We ran for approximately 3:00, moseying in the environs, and then we would stop for a superset of 1) 5 Burpees, 2) 10 Merkins, and 15) squats, we moseyed around Fleet Elementary then explored the neighborhood above Route 50. While first crossing the bridge the Q made a very ill-advised command to do Monkey Humpers on the footbridge over Route 50. Seemed an okay idea. But the Q received some feedback that persuaded him to revoke that command. This was wisdom. We came back on site, moseyed around a bit more in the JG format. MARY: Flutters/Toy Soldiers/LBCs–and one more set of the 5/10/15.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Please stay tuned to this channel for information regarding the workout at One Life Fitness this coming Saturday June 8 — no deets yet.
COT: This was already going to be the topic so it was just serendipity. Leaders use feedback. Negative feedback is a fact of life. Deal with it. As a leader, remember, you get what you praise, you need to be praising about 5x to 6x more than the negative feedback you give. SYITG!!!

Mary: J-Lo’s, American Hammers

Announcements: AFLAC Q Wednesday and Pad Thai Q Friday.

CoT: Throughout this workout, YHC invited the PAX to remember times in their lives when they have been frustrated or disappointed over things they could not control. YHC invited the PAX to remember those moments of frustration, and channel that energy into the workout, thereby giving “payback“ to the world.

However, at the end of the workout, why YHC remarked that the true character building comes when we learn to forgive those who have offended us.
Matthew 6:14 – “If ye forgive men their trespasses, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you”
Doctrine & Covenants 64:9 – “Forgive one another; for he that forgiveth not his brother his trespasses stands condemned before the Lord; for there remaineth in him the greater sin”
Russell M. Nelson – “Not forgiving others is poison for us. Grudges weigh us down. Angry disagreements separate us. Animosity and hatred can divide families”
