Wet March 1st Merkin Challenge Launch

Northeast Tennessee Arrowhead (Indian Trail) Johnson City

20 PAX dragged themselves out of the fartsack to enjoy a rainy Arrowhead morning.  The Merkin challenge has started and the QIC was determined to knock out a few the gloom.

    THE THANG
    Since we had 11 coupons (blocks) and 20 PAX, each man paired up and shared a block.  The Merkins were done in cadence.
  • Merkins IC X5
  • Block shoulder presses X10 OYO, changed to block curls at some point
  • Squats X10 OYO
  • Run to the cones (approx. 40 yards) and return to the blocks.  The faster PAX had a few seconds to recover before the next set of IC Merkins as the QIC was on the slow end.
  • Rinse and repeat until time was called (at 0615).  The PAX completed another 17 sets of Merkins IC for a grand (IC) total of 110 – or 220 if you want a “non IC” count. 170 squats and 170 overhead presses/block curls were knocked out as well.   Strong work men.  The QIC appreciated the encouraging words throughout.

CIRCLE OF TRUST
PRAYER
MOLESKIN

Philippians 4:8 – Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.

We should all try to strive to always focus and strive to think about the right things around us.  We must all make a concerted effort to stay on the path that God has laid out for each of us.
