WARMUP: BAC/back BACs, merkins, LS squats, motivators from 5, mosey to cinderblocks and grab 1, mosey to pull-up bars
THE THANG: hit each exercise, rinse and repeat adding 1 extra rep each round; start at 5 reps (start at 10 to level up) Pull-ups Apolo Ohnos Imperial Blocksters Nolan Ryan’s The Lion Kings Run (~100 yrds) American Hammers Iron Mikes No cheat merkins
*finished with pull-up ring of fire. Dead hang, go in circle, everyone does 1 PU and then 2 for 2nd round.
MOLESKINE: Étouffée and Derby leveled up X2 with extra weight! Shakira has made impressive gains, enjoyed fellowship afterwards, thanks Cheeks for the hot brew, thanks Publix for the buy 1 get 1 free muffins and cold brew.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Pitmaster hosting a cookout, F3 dads event upcoming in May, check slack for more announcements and details.
COT: motivation is not a good foundation for long term success. Some of the top companies in the world have been studied to find what separates them from everyone else. As it is with the most successful people, you can’t let motivation be your driving factor in working hard. Motivation comes and goes. Some companies crushed it early on, and when things got challenging, they folded, went bankrupt, etc. As Christ did on his walk to Calvary, when things are challenging and hard, which they will be at times, put 1 foot in front of the next and keep marching.
Thanks, Wolfpack and Siri for helping get pain-train going 2 years ago.

We concluded that AI is like a teenager/20 year old … sometimes it doesn’t do what it says it did and yet it’s always confident. Providing context is important. Opportunities to have some extra grace and repeating oneself are also bound to happen.

MOLESKINE:“The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything.” — Warren Buffett
