Standing over the first card, squat down and pick up the first card off of the ground (to do so required squatting low and holding the squat long enough to pick up the card off of the pavement).\u00a0 Step ahead to the second card. Squat down again to place the first card on top of the second card.\u00a0 Now empty handed,\u00a0 squat down and pick up each card in the pile, one at a time &#8211; one squat per card. \u00a0 With all cards in the pile now in hand, move ahead to the third card, putting each card in your hand down on top of the third card, one squat per card.\u00a0 Empty handed once more, pick up each card, one squat at a time. \u00a0 Proceed with this pattern &#8212; squatting to put each card down and then squatting to pick each card back up &#8212; until you&#8217;ve moved through all ten cards in the line.<\/p>\n<p>YHC has never counted the total number of squats completed, but it is a lot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MARY:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mosey back to the parking lot for a quick session of Mary.\u00a0 \u00a0Goofy led us in some Flutterkicks before the clock struck 0615.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NMM:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A special weekday session of The Racquet happened this morning at 0630.\u00a0 \u00a0Starfish even brought extra tennis racquets, so you had no excuse for not attending (other than no notice, no time, or no interest)<\/li>\n<li>Closer has the Q at Red Line next week<\/li>\n<li>Lunch Bunch will be at Camel City BBQ on Friday at 1145<\/li>\n<li>We christened our FNG, Walker Douglas, as &#8220;Zombie&#8221; in light of his first name, Walker (which apparently is an alternate name for a zombie).\u00a0 Zombie grew up in Winston-Salem and recently moved back to town from Charlottesville, VA.\u00a0 He is a 2011 Wake Forest grad and is a legal analyst for Lexis-Nexis.\u00a0 His wife is currently completing a medical fellowship at Baptist Medical Center.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>COT:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prayers for Goofy&#8217;s mother-in-law, who is experiencing serious medical issues associated with loss of circulation in her legs<\/li>\n<li>Prayers for Starfish&#8217;s parents and parents in-law, who are experiencing issues with aging (although Starfish&#8217;s Mom is improving following recent surgery)<\/li>\n<li>Closer asked for prayers for students throughout our school system who will be taking EOG tests today<\/li>\n<li>Praises for Closer, who accepted a job offer (locally) that he will start in a few weeks, one that he is very excited about!!<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Prayers for an unnamed F3 brother who is going through marital difficulties that may result in a separation<\/li>\n<li>YHC\u00a0 took us out, lifting up the prayers and praises to Him.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thanks for the keys, Wobegon! \u00a0 A pleasure and honor to lead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YHC was laid low for 6 days by a chest cold that first came on while I was Q&#8217;ing last Thursday at The Distillery.\u00a0 I wasn&#8217;t sure I had it in me to successfully Q this morning, but I made the effort anyway.\u00a0 Goofy was bringing an FNG, and I didn&#8217;t want to let either [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":245,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[114,85],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-core-and-strength","category-the-rock-quarry"],"acf":{"q":"SGT Schultz","date":"May 30, 2019","pax":"Bueller, Closer, Goofy (WD), Palin, SGT Schultz (QIC), Starfish, TPS, Zombie (formerly FNG Walker Douglas)(WB) "},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/245"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9158"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9158\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9163,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9158\/revisions\/9163"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
