The Swamp has become a popular place lately. There are two workout options (Bootcamp, Rucking) available. It is always interesting watching the PAX prepare for the ruck workout. Not sure what is in the pack: Books, snacks, toys, etc.
18 men showed up this morning, half ruck, half bootcamp. After the disclaimer, we went our separate ways (Journey 1983). Mosey to the parking lot behind Just Fresh where the music was playing some old hits, another benefit of this AO.
COP (in cadence):
SSH
Moroccan Night Club – Puddles has an interesting (strange) modification to this exercise. It seems to be catching on with other PAX, or maybe just Vinnie.
Imperial Walker
Windmill
Merkins (6″ hold for 10 seconds x 2)
LBCs
Line up for sprints, jog first, sprint to the light pole in back. In the distance, we saw the Ruck PAX circled on the ground. It appeared to be sharing time, remember back in school when you went around the circle and discussed your day. Just kidding…all in fun.
Next, mosey to the Home Depot wall for people chair, then bear crawl to the Target wall. Another set of LBCs followed by a mobile balls to the wall (walking on hand with feet against the wall). Again, another set of LBCs.
Mosey to the infamous red balls. On a side note, I used to let my 2.0s climb on them before I joined F3. Now I have them avoid them at all costs.
Exercise at each ball, run back to the starting line. Alternate between CCDs (x10) and LBCs (x20). We almost forgot about the bonus ball around the corner of the building…extra credit 50 LBCs.
Mosey to the back of Target for another round of mobile balls to the wall and a set of LBCs.
Short jog to the fountain for a set of dips (x20) and derkins (x20). More running to the front of Petsmart for a sprint back to COT and one last set of LBCs. Sasquatch showed his impressive speed.
Lots of AB work and running at different speeds today. Rough calculations of 300 LBCs and 2.7 miles covered this morning. Great work everyone! It is always an honor.
