On the places you’ll go. Good book to reflect on for yourself and with kids. Some favorite quotes read from book.
“Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!” New Beginnings
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” Self-Determination
“Kid, you’ll move mountains! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So get on your way!” Motivation
Ways to engage kids. Some good questions to consider.
What’s one thing I don’t know about you?
How can I be the best parent for you?
What’s something tricky in your life?
What was your favorite part of your day?
What’s the hardest part of being a kid.
What’s the best part of being a kid?
What’s your favorite thing to learn about?

THE THANG:
Grab a block!
In the format of 7’s we started with 15 lunges (1is1) and 1 curl+1press, 14 lunges and 2curl+2press…1 lunges and 15curl+15press
Next we did 7’s: thrusters and burpees – mode of transpo is an overhead block carry
Circle up for 20 4-count flutters with block overhead, 19 block situps, 18 4CF’s, 17 block situps, etc all the way down. Don’t believe we made it past 15.
All-in-all a great workout! We were ~5 minutes over on the first two blocks, we should have had ample time to finish the core block. It’s not over-Q’d it’s the standard but 30+ guys are hard to move and hambone’s goofy ass tried to cause confusion on the counting and Red Skull somehow forgot how to demo a thruster like they haven’t been a staple of Struggle 001-004
MOLESKINE:
YHC got an urgent and tough call mid-workout that pulled me away for a second. Sobering example that stuggles dont care what you’ve got going on. Trying to help some dudes out? Trying to get your life in order? Finally submitting to God after years of straying? New baby on the way? New job? etc etc They’re coming brothers whether we like it or not so how can we prepare? We practice hard things so that we know how to respond when hard things happen.
