Episode #106: The One with All the Merkins πŸ‹οΈβ€β™‚οΈπŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ

Northeast Tennessee Arrowhead (Indian Trail) Johnson City

On a cool, overcast morning, 11 PAX gathered to test their limits with a workout that was nothing short of a Merkin marathon. πŸŒ₯οΈπŸ‚

DISCLAIMER
Today’s workout is a Merkin bonanza. Like Ross trying to pivot a couch, it’s all about technique and effort. Remember, we’re not professional trainers, so listen to your body, modify as needed, and don’t forget to breatheβ€”no sandwiches were harmed in making this workout. πŸ˜‚πŸ›‹οΈ

PRAYER
Thanked God for the ability to work out and for safety. πŸ™

Warm-Up:
– **10 Imperial Walkers**
– **10 Hillbilly Walkers**
– **10 Willie Mays Hayes**
– **10 Sticky Butt Kickers**
– **10 LBAC (Little Baby Arm Circles) Front and Back** – Loosening those shoulders! πŸ’ͺ

The Thang:
11’s: A dynamic duo of exercises designed to push our limits:
– **Derkins** at the benches – Lifting ourselves up, one push at a time! πŸ’Ί
– **Monkey Humpers** at the crosswalk – Getting cheeky with it! πŸ’

Clock Merkins: Time to face the clock with a partner:
– One partner does Merkins at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, while the other blasts out LBCs. πŸ•’
– **24 Rounds** (hours) split between partners, near the fire hydrant for Merkins and at the flag for LBCs. ⏰

Tabata Sets: A rapid-fire sequence of exercises, switching between:
**Abyss Merkins** – Deep dips into the abyss! πŸ•³οΈ

**Incline Merkins** – Pushing up the slope! πŸ“ˆ
**Rosalita** – Spreading those wings on the ground! πŸ¦…

No time for Mary – we were all out of time, but not out of spirit! πŸš«πŸ•°οΈ

Moleskin:
We delved into some spiritual fitness, reflecting on the books of Titus and Timothy to discover what it means to be a godly man in modern times. Like a good Merkin, it’s about pushing up against what life puts down. πŸ“–πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦

Announcements:
