QIC: Burns

Date: 11.7.22

PAX: Hansel, Gretel, Burns

YHC was worried it would be a solo adventure after the lack of activity on the preblast, but thankfully Hansel and Gretel followed the breadcrumbs right into my little trap.  An upper body beatdown was promised, and an upper body beatdown was delivered.

Each exercise was followed by 15 irkins. I think we did LBCs, low flutters, plank jacks, freddie mercs, and one other thing.

It was awesome having the small group to get to know these two guys a little better. Lots of conversation surrounding the upcoming World Cup and the USA team, as well as the growing structure for youth soccer compared to the lack thereof when we were growing up.

No explicit prayer requests or announcements. YHC took us out with thanksgiving.
