MOLESKINE:
Many of my students are rude in avoidable ways (interrupting, addressing teachers too casually, etc.). This is really throwing me off because I was raised so differently. So that made me realize that they learned it from somewhere. Their dads aren’t correcting them or are modeling bad behavior. We need to model good behavior and raise our children well to be the kind of people we want to hang out with.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– tussle next Saturday
COT:
– prayers for Étouffée ‘s meetings today and Stubs rambunctious boys.

WARMUP: Black Lung kicked us off, acknowledging that none leading were proffessionals. A quick ~100 yard mosey got our heart rates up and Diego took over warming us up with some lunges, ab warmups and leg warmups. Black Lung finished up the warmup with some classic BAC, BBAC, and low, slow merkins.
THE THANG:
With our limbs now limbered, Derby took the helm, leading us in some fantastic EMOM’s. exercises were as follows
– 10 burpees, 5 sets
– 20-30 WW2’s, 5 sets
– 20-30 Squats, 5 sets
– Simon Says 5 minutes. Simon called out exercises. If PAX exercised when Simon didn’t say, PAX would perform 1 burpee for the first infraction, 2 for the second, 3 for the third to buy back in.
Now having worked up a good sweat, YHC led in some games:
– bear tag battle royale (3 rounds)
– Infection (3 rounds)
– Dad bear crawl assault. (2.0’s harassed dads as they attempted to bear crawl up the hill toward the goal.)
MOLESKINE:
Nothing better about being a dad than doing stuff with your kids! We took a moment to reflect on that and enjoy our time together

T-claps to Grape for getting this on the calendar, Derby and Black Lung for CoQing, and Diego for a great warmup!
