Sorry for the delay in the Backblast, but hey, at least I did one.

Moseyed to Granite Drug parking lot.
YHC gave a brief explanation of a gross. In Purchasing, a gross = 144 (ex: 12 pens/box x 12 boxes = 1 gross or 144 pens). The magic number here is 144 (as in reps). During this routine, there will be 3 grosses @ different locations with 4 different exercises (12 reps) each performed 3x or 432 total reps.
Here we go:
Gross #1 – performed 3x

WOD – From Jesus Calling
Luke 1:37 – “For nothing is impossible with God”
Jesus tells us to come to him with our weaknesses: physical, emotional and spiritual. He tells us that he is taking care of us & we need not be afraid of anything. But he does tell us we need to give up trying to control our lives & seek his will for us.

This “Q” was in awe as he pulled up in the parking lot to see a full house of men ready to work out. “This was my last “Q” workout (GROSS) last year, before my total knee replacement in August. What better workout than to bring it back for my 1st “Q” back after the surgery. Although I’ve missed the workouts with my F3 GF Brothers, I have been able to attend breakfast with them on Saturday mornings. It sure was great to not only be back, but to be back in the saddle again. An awesome turnout with 11 regulars & 2 FNG’s. I can’t wait as we work to “Get Better Together.” Remember “We Don’t Do Easy.”
2 Ply out!!
