Merkin Pain Center—one will do a type of Merkin while the other moseys from station to station doing a series of exercises: 6 pull-ups; 15 LBC’s; 25 calf-raises

Merkin Pain Center:

• 150–>Little baby Merkins; more of a plank, but just small cheater merkins, like my step-son does; or about 2 inches of movements
• 150–>Wide Merkins
• 150–>Abyss Merkins [painful]
• then hold PLANK until the other person finished the aforementioned series and switch

We finished with good stretch of Quads and Chest. Then circled up for name-orama, announcements, & intentions about those doing toughmutter & @pope to get better [totally forgot the 6 person to talk about how they got their name].

I ended with a simple prayer, but before hand spoke about RELATIONSHIPS.  Encouraging everyone to focus on themselves so that they can become their best so that they can GIVE their best.  From more SEX [yes sex, the power of a quickie to the power of an longy], to alone time; it is our job to find out what brings out our best [please use gospel principles as a base line, NOTHING harmful], invest in it, and then GIVE our best to our relationships. I encourage ALL to talk with your M’s and do a discovery about what each of you NEED to bring out your best. This discovery should happen weekly as our needs change and evolve. Be specific, agree upon it, then invest in it; and I know you will have more energy to give, more patience to offer, and more love to invest in EACH of your relationships!
