Swangin’ Bells

All All MECA Backblasts

September 23rd, 2016 By Mad Hatter

Nine of us Tradition-ers showed up today to get a good KB beatdown. I for one was feeling tired and out of shape since we just had our baby last Thursday (not yesterday Maximus). Half asleep and feeling defeated for the thousands of diapers we’ve already disposed of- we started.

Mosey around the church

SSH
Cotton Picker
Low Slow Squat
Arm Circles

The workout went like this… 1 person in the middle is the counter. The counter does 30 Russian Twists (unless your Dutch, then you do 80) while everyone around the counter is doing as many as they can of their exercises and switch around when the counter finishes.

Stations:
1- Tricep Extension
2- Shoulder Press
3- Curls
4- Goblet Squats
5- High Pulls
6- Sumo Squats
7- KB Swings
8- Clean and Jerk

The second round the counter did KB Merkins 12 on each side.

Line drill in between second and third round.

Third round the counter was back to Russian Twists 40 total this time.

Quick Mosey around the church.

20 Merkins

Mary:

Low Flutter
KB- The W
Pretzel Crunch (I think Urlacher was holding his “special” bell with his feet during these)
Freddy Mercury
LBC
Plank (1 minute regular, and then 30 seconds on each arm sideways) *Dingo arrives*

Stretch it out at the end.

COT
BOM

I was definitely exhausted at the end of this one. I hope everyone got a sufficient beatdown! But it was good to be back and see everyone again. Thanks for Maximus for helping me remember to do the count off at the end! Thanks for the opportunity to lead.

Pray for the families of all involved in Charlotte, Tulsa, and the nation as a whole. Pray for the police and armed forces that are so scrutinized that they have wisdom going into every situation they face.

Verse of the day:

Ephesians 6:10-13
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
