Warm-up
50 KB Snatches R/L (16 kg)
10 Knees to Elbows
Tactical Athlete Total
Three attempts each at:
Back Squat
Double KB Military Press (start in the rack position, hand must be below chin, press to lockout)
Deadlift
Weighted Pull-up
The CrossFit Total was created by Mark Rippetoe. He compiled the three most effective lifts for developing functional strength into one contest. Now, all you have to do is add the weighted pull-up. Be sure to pull with your palms facing out and make sure the front of your neck (not your chin) touches the bar; otherwise it’s just a good try.
Happy Valentines Day!
I Corinthians 13: 1-13
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have {the gift of} prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed {the poor,} and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
Love is patient,
love is kind {and}
(love) is not jealous;
love does not brag {and}
(love) is not arrogant,
(love) does not act unbecomingly;
(love) does not seek its own,
(love) is not provoked,
(love) does not take into account a wrong {suffered,}
(love) does not rejoice in unrighteousness,but
(love) rejoices with the truth;
(love) bears all things,
(love) believes all things,
(love) hopes all things,
(love) endures all things.
Love never fails; …
But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
It is interesting to note that If you replace the word “love” with “Jesus” in the above verses. It fits perfectly. Try it.
Now, try it again but this time replace it with your name.
If your like me not only does it not fit… it’s almost embarrassing to the point of being laughable. Our goal as believers is to become more Christlike. May the love of God shine in and through you each and every day!
“History has proved that a society based on loving it’s neighbor is more stable and productive than one that is based on killing it’s neighbor.” – James Teasdale, Christian Missionary, Kenya.
