Living up to any standard is commendable, and can be challenging. Living up to the 1st F standards at Indian Land is a whole other matter… But… well… when you’re asked to lead, you don’t say no.
No FNGs, so the disclaimer was given, up to the “no-new-guy” standard, and off we went…
Mosey a lap around the student pickup lane with a little dynamic stretching (Toy Soldiers, Knee to chest, high knees, etc.)
Stop in front of zigzag walls for a little more warm up
Windmills x 10
Richard Simmons x 10
Cherry Pickers x 10
Merkins x 10
Squat x 20
SSH x 20
10 muscle up on the wall OYO
Mosey to the playground for a round of 20-20-20
Break into 3 groups
Group 1 = 20 dips on the parallel bars
Group 2 = 20 box jumps on the concrete benches
Group 3 = 20 double count flutters
Repeato x 3
Mosey to the football practice field
7 stations set:
- Uphill medicine ball (20lb) toss
- Squats
- Makhtar N’Diayes
- Merkins
- Donkey Kicks
- Hairburners (50lb sandbag)
- Sandbag (40lb) Run
The sandbag runner is the timer, the rest of the Pax perform the exercises until he gets back. Rotate stations until each Pax had performed each exercise. Repeato.
On the 2nd round, we traded out Merkins for calf raises, and donkey kicks for another thing I can’t remember…
We were pretty gassed by now, and I suggested we go at it a third time, but when Mary Lou says “or we can do something else”, you probably go ahead and move on…
We moseyed back to the cars, and then we took a lap around the pickup lane until we got to the zigzag wall again. We finished things up with some Mary, some more muscle ups, some more Mary, and then a final lap around the pickup lane.

NMM:
I gotta say, I love traveling to all the different areas of our region. I have made so many friends and there are so many guys that I love to see and catch up with, over the last two years, that I just can’t help it. I am truly energized and inspired by seeing you all.
I have truly discovered the miracles of mutual suffering, and the bonds that come from it.
Looking forward to many more years to come being sharpened by all of you.
Helmet, Out.
