Date: 2026-07-17 AO: Pain Train Q: Puzzlah , PAX: Puzzlah, FLO, Shakira, Siri, Sooie FNGs: None COUNT: 5 CONDITIONS: “A heavy mist cloaked the ship, and the air grew thick and damp, so that no man could see what lay a spear’s length ahead.”
WARMUP: Good mornings SSH WMH
THE THANG: To recognize how close Odysseus and his men got to Ithaca, but never could quite make it, we moseyed to the tennis courts and did three suicides almost making to the end, but never making it home, increasing speed each time.
Four Corners representing different stops on his way back to Ithaca to make it to Penelope.
🌸 STATION 1: THE LOTUS-EATERS 20 “dead-bug” alternating V-ups
Mosey to:
👁️ STATION 2: THE CAVE OF THE CYCLOPS (Blinding Polyphemus)
20 merkins 10 single leg squats/lunges
As Odysseus and his men escaped Polyphemus by riding on the uderbelly pf sheep, crab walk to:
🐷 STATION 3: THE SIRENS & CIRCE Where Odysseus is tied to the mast to endure the Sirens’ call before Circe captures them and turns his men into pigs.
Overhead squat hold 90 seconds 20 Alabama (Aeaea) Prom dates
Bernie to:
🌀 STATION 4: SCYLLA & CHARYBDIS Where odysseus must navigate between Scylla, the six headed monster and Charybdis, whose waves will seallow the ships. Odysseus makes the decision to sacrifice six of his men.
12 burpees (add a second pushup) 20 windshield wipers
Inchworm back to station one
Not enough time to do a second round, so we added army crawls to the mosey to station two in reverse lunges to the Bernie between station three and four.
Last man up run back to startex
MARY: Forced to sneak back into his home there is now filled with suitors for Penelope, Odysseus fights and slay these suitors before reuniting with his wife.
20 Freddie mercury’s 15 Ithacan hammers 15 Hello Dollies
Some light stretching and breathing to close this out.
MOLESKINE: Story of the Odyssey is one of pursuit for family and relying on the support of those around you. And since it’s been 25 years since I read the Odyssey, I probably messed up a lot of the facts, still a good time to by all.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: discernment and support as we go through challenging times together
PLAYLIST: we got some sea shanties, fantastic voyage, songs about coming home, and finish up with some Vanessa Carlton https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2QtD47QBE5rqkSqGx7ExlQ?si=rQIlryS5Rji2Jx3_fTmFNQ&utm_source=copy-link&pi=o2oM6HCHRw6yj

“The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America”

Date: 2026-07-02 AO: Atlantis Q: Puzzlah , PAX: Puzzlah, Focker, Pole Dancer, DintyMoore, ShockJock FNGs: 1 ShockJock COUNT: 5 CONDITIONS: Warm
WARMUP: Stretchin
THE THANG: 1764-1789 Trivia
Station 1: Q: We all know “Taxation without representation”, name at least 3 taxes that were levied on the colonies between 1764-1775. A: Sugar Act, Stamp Act, Townshend Act, Tea Act
W Partner: 342 Step ups/Dips total while partner runs around the silo to represent the 342 boxes of tea dumped into the Boston Harbor during the Boston Tea Party.
Q2: G-Dub was disgusted by MassHoles, but after Henry Knox took cannons from Ft Ticonderoga and brought them to Boston and they were secretly brought to Dorchester Heights (6 blocks from where I grew up), the Colonial Army forced the British to evacuate Boston in spring 1776. On what day, appropriate for Boston, does the city celebrate Evacuation Day with City Offices closed?
A: March 17 Partner up, carry your partner up the hill.
Q3: The Declaration of Independence was voted for on July 2 by the Second Continental Congress, leading John Adams to write to Abigail, “. “The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival.”
While only John Hancock had signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, who was the oldest signer and how old was he?
A: Benjamin Franklin, 70 years old
Right answer: 13 “Bolts” (for his lightning bolt experience)–>13 half quats (top), 13 half squats (bottom), 13 full squats, 13 full squat tuck jumps (like Usain Bolts) Wrong answer: 70 Monkey Humpers because Benny Boy loved the ladies
Station 4:
Q: In a desperate “Victory or Death” gamble, Washington marched his freezing, ragtag army to the banks of the Delaware River on Christmas night. In the middle of a brutal nor’easter blizzard—with ice floes smashing against their wooden Durham boats—they crossed the river in pitch darkness and marched 9 miles through the snow to catch the elite Hessian garrison completely by surprise, leaving a trail of blood. While we are familiar with Washington crossing the Delaware, during which battle did this occur?
A: Battle of Trenton
Wrong answer: get barefoot, ice skaters from the foul pole to the outfield fence. Mosey back. Sprints (increasing in percentage from (19%, 50%, 64%, 76%, 89%, 100%, 180% representing years associated with key revolutionary activities).
MARY: – American Hammers: 76 reps IC (Finish out the year) – Big Boy Sit-Ups: 56 reps OYO (Shared with a partner—28 reps each to honor the 56 signers) – The 1789 Constitutional Plank: Hold a low forearm plank for exactly 89 seconds.

Team Juicy wins 5-3. Thanks to a semi FNG all star appearance. Puzzlah Pole Dancer and Shredder? Wins new F3 stickers.
MARY:
MOLESKINE: intentional ministry and helping others. It’s good to have a variety of mission opportunities in your life. It’s easy to stay in your circles and help your affluent friends and neighbors who are already close to you and honestly, it probably isn’t making a massive delta or a change in their life.
A challenge to each of us to get out of your circles and help those that are truly hurting where you can actually make a massive positive difference. Lots of Nonprofits out there to find these opportunities if needed.
The needs are there, 100%. Just need to look. 5,000+ kids starve to death every day around the world. Donate to these ministries is an example. Less than $1 can feed a kid for a day. Look it up on Claude.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: summer LeanPax July 5th on the leanpax channel

Drive for Show, Putt for Dough

Date: 2026-05-21 AO: Atlantis Q: Firefox , PAX: Puzzlah, Subway, Firefox, Blueprint, Oatmeal, sooner, Cheesehead FNGs: 1 Cheesehead COUNT: 7 CONDITIONS: Damp
WARMUP: Mosey around park to the side parking lot. SSH LBAC Merkins Mountain Climbers
THE THANG: Disc golf! We started on the fields. Lunge walk to your first lie, bear crawl to each lie until you sink your putt. We multiplied high scores by low scores to get the number of burpees to do between rounds. – 1st hole, straight away in the open, roughly 270ish feet: 3 x 6 = 18 burpees – sooner set the next basket behind a pole and garbage can, roughly 250ish feet: 3 x 4 = 12 burpees – FNG Cheesehead set the next basket out in the open, roughly 260ish feet: 3 x 5 = 15 burpees
Mosey up to near the pizza hut pavilion with a basket set on the playground behind one of the rock structures. No exercises, just 1 more hole for fun.
Next we made a circle around a basket and started 12ish feet away. SSH, going around the circle attempting putts. After every two rounds, 10 merkins. Take a step back for each putt you sunk. 5 or 6 rounds of this.
MARY: There’s no Mary in disc golf.
MOLESKINE: Welcome, Cheesehead!
For those new to the sport, there are 4 main characteristics of golf discs: – Speed – less how fast it will fly and more how hard you have to throw it to make it fly like it should (we were throwing with 3s, 4s, and 5s) – Glide – how much carry the disc will have – Turn – how much it “turns” with the direction of your throw during the initial portion of flight (to the right on a backhand throw) – Fade – how much it falls out at the end of its flight (to the left on a backhand throw) There’s also a 5th characteristic: how much the thrower projects misguided trust onto a disc based on its aesthetic awesomeness And a 6th characteristic: how much the thrower stubbornly keeps using a disc to fly in a pattern it was not intended for
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Holy Smokers – Spring Fling
COT: – New jobs – End of the school year – Job stress – Family member injuries
