? Ambush Warriors defied the evil fart sack, & emerged from the gloom for some good ole fashioned “Through the Tunnel,” “Side=Straddle Hoppin,” & intense “Windmill” action. I think they realized pretty quickly that there were none of these beloved exercises to be found today at The Bush……instead, below happened……it escalated quickly.
Weather: Perfect for a butt whoopin

Mosey to block pile – each PAX secure 2 blocks – line up on FB field goal line & partner up

200 Squats (with block)
200 Forward/Shoulder Lateral Raises (with block)

Well, 45 minutes just isn’t really enough time to make all this stuff work, so I think maybe Paper Jam is going to lobby to the big dogs that we need to increase weekday workouts to I hour (thanks, Paper). So, unfortunately for the PAX (b/c I truly believe everyone was having a fantastic time), we had to cut it off during Lateral Raises & head back to drop off our blocks……we then moseyed to circle up around the Shovel Flag for MARY.
Today’s MARY consisted of…….E.M.O.M. (Every Minute On the Minute) with BURPEES – 5 rounds
We done.

Thank you for coming out this morning & allowing me to lead – I always enjoy it & look forward to doing it. Hard to believe it’s been almost 2 years since I first came out to my very first workout….man time sure does fly. We kinda touched on that this morning post-smokefest…..just that life is short, even if we each live to be 100 – it’s still not enough time. We all know we’re not promised even the next 5 minutes & that it can all end on a dime, in a moment. I just encouraged each one of us (including myself) to just try to slow this thing down sometimes, if we can (impossible, I know), and really just try to enjoy every minute we get – like it could really be our last. God gave us the gift of life by His own breath, and even created this ridiculously amazing planet for us to live/thrive on. If we could just find that “balance” (thank you, PJ)……if we could just find that fine line to walk on, where we can just let down our guard & all the responsibilities & worries of life that we all have, and just find a way to really appreciate just being able to feel the sun on our face, see a big beautiful blue sky, breathe in that precious O2……and just truly enjoy being alive – LIFE, itself. I hope we can all find our own ways to do that, b/c this thing is just too damn short not to. God bless & pray He helps us all enjoy the little things, while we still have the chance to do so!
Bambi……out.
