I’ll never forget standing one of the longest lines of my life at the old Apollo Theater, just to see a movie about a Ship VS Iceberg. I’m sure most of you guys that grew up around Greenwood remember very well when Titanic came to the Apollo. Some of you older guys probably took your girl friends or wives to see it. YHC on the other hand was only 8 years old and drug by my parents to witness this tragic event. I’m not talking about the actual disaster but the 3 hour & 14 minutes worth of my life that I wont get back. It probably would have been better if my mom didn’t embarrass me so much by standing up and forcing her hands over my eyes during the best scene for an 8 year old boy. Anyway we all remember that movie and how much attention surrounded it so I got to thinking. Since YHC has the Q at the Shipyard, why not do a Titanic based theme. This was either going to be a major hit or a major flop.
8 PAX arrived to a Parking Lot with Céline Deion playing out of YHC truck’s speakers and were probably thinking ” What have we gotten ourselves into?”

Devotion
Life is going to send Icebergs your way and try to make you break and sink. Most of the time they come unexpected and can crush your spirit. Its up to us to put or trust in God and put on his armor so that when the Icebergs come, they wont be able to destroy us.

- There has been a lot of Mumble Chatter about this Q since YHC posted about it on twitter. The PAX that showed up knew that today would be special and I hope I made it worth there while.
- There was a lot of Laughter today which I enjoy. Its great to have a good body workout and let loose a little.
- All PAX played along in the sinking of he ship. As a matter of fact there was some Shouting when I told them we had hit an iceberg.
- YHC had forgotten how long 20 yards is during the Backwards Hops. Especially when you cant see the cone to finish
- During the Partner Back to Back Squats, YHC forgot the height difference between myself and Round Up. Needless to say during demonstration we got stuck at the bottem and couldn’t get back up.
- Pusher had us doing a crazy chicken dance during LBACs, Meatloaf would love trying that next time.
Today we a good day and everybody pushed themselves and each other. PAX worked really well together on the partner workouts and hopefully learned some new exercises to take with them.
As always its a pleasure & I’ll see you guys out there next time.
Aye.
