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

Longevity Training

Date: 2026-02-24 AO: the-knoll Q: morning stār PAX: Wolfpack, Papa Bear, Dirty Bird, Stubs, Bumble bee (2.0) FNGs: None COUNT: 6 CONDITIONS: cold enough for sweat to freeze on the face … not too windy thankfully.
WARMUP: a proprietary combination of movements that you had to be present to experience.
THE THANG: Started with a lesson on overhand figure 8 with the rope. Paired up.
One PAX did a Body Builder Burpee with a roll x3, the other rope flowed with overhand figure 8, then switch.
Mosey to the backstop for 3 erkins and 3 step ups.
Back to it … one PAX lunged to the ground and did 3 dead bugs, the other rope flowed, then switch.
Mosey to the back of the park and drag an evergreen limb to the street.
MOLESKINE: – I love to share what I’m learning and thankful for the PAX being willing to try out some rope flow today. – For those that took a rope, here’s a https://youtu.be/3qBEEeqixi4?si=iCWBJqSHTPtE7iI2 and here’s a https://youtu.be/IVKbB7P0j0M?si=LKD1RCr-3W8cqmF4. If you want to get deeper into the practice DM me or text ma and I’ll show you some more free in depth training. – I’m enjoying my personal growth to be able to show up, be at ease and be present with you men vs. feeling anxiety around “leading correctly”.
COT: YHC talked about building some awareness of how our movements and motions in life shape others around us. Most of the time those around us (especially those we are entrusted to lead) are watching and mimicking what we do more than what we say.
Prayed us out with a blessing of loving care to fill our tanks so hope can spring up and overflow to others in our lives.
Stay curious my brothers, -m*

Shakira’s Juicy Hips showdown

Date: 2026-02-19 AO: the-knoll Q: Juicy J , Shakira PAX: morning stār, Roadkill, Stubs, Shakira, Juicy J, Piglet, Pebbles, Hartford (canton GA) Bumblebee FNGs: None COUNT: 8 CONDITIONS: crispy
WARMUP: side straddle hops, baby arm circles, backpacks, willie may Hayes
THE THANG: f3nashville.slack.com/archives/D0A7CGJP3DM/p1771504353652699
MOLESKINE: Call yo Grandma: for me personally, I try and live life with no regrets, the past is the past, learn from it but don’t look back too much. I like to compare it to driving your car every day. Think about the rearview mirror compared to the windshield. It’s not even 10% the size. The windshield is bigger for a reason — focus on where you’re going. But every now and then, glance back and learn from where you’ve been. But anyways, one regret I do have is how often I would reach out to my grandparents. Now they’ve all passed away, but when I think back, man, one phone call to them literally meant the world to them. My grandmother would cry almost every time I talked to her. A simple phone call would literally make her day. Think about what would make your day and compare to that. Its crazy. A point here is younger people generally don’t care about phone calls anymore, its kind of dying- its all about texting and technology has ruined it. It won’t mean much to us when we get older either, not as much. It’s all old people used to have, it’s what they’re used to. That generation is dying off. So if you’re blessed enough to still have grandparents, call them, or write them letters, it’s an easy way to probably make someone’s day.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: March merkins
COT: lift up Pebbles friends
PLAYLIST: Nickelback (best band of all time right??) plus some Alien techno

Shakira’s Racewalk School (Pt. 1)

Date: 2026-02-10 AO: the-knoll Q: Shakira PAX: Stubs, Roadkill, Juicy J, FLO, AAA, morning stār, Shakira, Étouffée, Wolfpack, Sparrow, Derby, Pebbles, Sooie, Bumblebee (2.0), Link (2.0) FNGs: None COUNT: 15 CONDITIONS: Upon rising from bed, the PAX were greeted by Piglet’s Favorite Kind of Weather (Shorts Weather) and a balmy temperature of 47 degrees. Our resident meteorologist, Juicy J, informed us that the feel-like temp was 42 so the PAX would have to keep moving if they were going to stay warm in the Gloom. Fortunately, by the end of the workout several PAX reported that they were sweating buckets and the feel-like had mysteriously risen to 70.
WARMUP: 30 side straddle hops, 15 Baby arm circles, 15 Back backs, 15 Press ups, 15 Twinkle Toes, 10 low slow merkins, Mosey.
Pebbles, Derby, and Étouffée wanted to make sure they weren’t late for Shakira’s school so they showed up early for an extra 10 minutes of sand bag burpees.
THE THANG: The PAX began their initiation into Shakira’s Racewalk School with a brief explanation of the rules of Racewalk and a group mosey. Bumblebee and Link appeared to be future racewalk olympians and are on the Shakira shortlist for full scholarships.
Next, the PAX’s completed an endurance test called the 7 of Diamonds workout: 4 sets of Burpees, Iron Mikes, WW2s, and Twinkle Toes in increasing count (7, 14, 21, 28). MOT was a choice between bear crawl and imperial walkers.
Finally, the PAX completed a 10 minute “Move & Hold” Lie Detector test to discover if their “Hips Don’t Lie.” Results were mixed, so we will have to repeat this experiment again soon.
60 second plank 3 x 30s glute bridge, 30s hold (Rleg, Lleg, both) 3 x 30s core exercise, 30s hollow hold or plank (scissors, dying cockroach, Shakiras (Jlos)
MOLESKINE: “When you fall get up, oh, oh…And if you fall get up, eh, eh”
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Holy smokers coming up soon in East Nashville!
COT: A moment of silence to reflect in gratitude for what we have and pray for all in need.
