COT

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” – Galatians 6:9

  • This verse was the COT at 2 of YHC’s first 4 beatdowns.
  • The encouragement is toward perseverance and patience–in exercise, personal growth, finances, child-raising, etc.
  • YHC was reminded of this while in Birmingham this past week, and visiting the 16th St. Baptist Memorial, where 4 young girls were killed when the church was bombed in 1963–their deaths and the sacrifice of so many others brought our country along in the area of civil rights, there there is still more work to do.

Moleskin

  • This was the observation of YHC’s Fourth F3 Anniversary (the actual date was Thursday).
    • As such, it was a combination of the first few workouts he experienced in F3–two here in Hampton Roads, and two down in Sarasota, FL with F3 Suncoast.
    • 2 of these 4 first beatdowns featured and EMOM component. Spooky.
  • Moneyball commented on YHC’s playlist during the Ladder: “Are all these covers by men of female-led songs?” The answer is no, it was a playlist of covers. But the question was valid as the first two were “Natural Woman” and “Hit Me Baby One More Time.”
  • Wilson accurately pointed out the EMOM routine will bust your butt.
  • Abacus put up a pretty decent effort.
  • YHC has always wanted to integrate the elevator into a workout. This particular integration wasn’t exactly seamless, but it was welcomed by the PAX after the Ladder.
  • The PAX made fun of YHC for taking a picture of them to remember for attendance, but YHC had to reference it for this BB.
