Message: The proverbial “Two steps forward, one step back” is usually a negative term to describe someone who is having trouble making progress. But switched around, “1 Step Back, 2 Steps Forward” means that instead of grousing or feeling guilty about a misstep, you can still come out ahead if you put your head down and push forward. It consists of: We take–1 step back, We take–2 steps forward
Therefore we turn it into an Optimistic approach of “ One Step Back ,Two Steps forward,”
The PAX were to come down 1 level, then run up 2 levels of stairs to a landing do an exercise and then back down 1, go back up 2, and so on.
Divided into 5 groups, we start on the respective 5 levels of the Tower to start the “Thang”
The Thang: To the Tower! Option of (2) Exercises per level
- Merkins or Imperial Walkers X 15
- LBC’s or Freddy Mercury’s X 15
- Monkey Jumpers or Burpees X 15
- A Lap around the Tower Base
- Lt Dans or Alphabet
We wasted no time and got right into it, passing each other on the stairs as some headed up and others were heading down, it was a fun but painful beatdown. There was little mumble chatter just a lot of heavy breathing and sweating!! In our walk with God we have to keep pressing forward and being Confident, as it says in Philippians 1:6
