GC RUCK – 9/19 – RUCK HEAVY

Alright Pax, get ready for a ride.

It was a great day to Ruck, wait actually everyday is a great day to Ruck.  As we stood around waiting for the 5:15 call I heard Trucker say, “I know this is going to be a heavy one, I don’t see anything but I know he’s hiding them.”  Keep reading if you want to see if he’s right.

As we moved off we split into two groups, a PAX is recovering from an injury and a few went with for a casual RUCK.  6 came with me  and we were on our way.

Before we took off I told them get ready its going to be a strapless start.

Part 1.

Bear Hug your Ruck, and move to the next destination.

Wall sit with Rucks on lap.  Pass Rucks down the line, two burpees and make it down to the end of the line.  Those of you who have done a RUCK with me know I use this as a unofficial weight check.

Overhead carry to next destination.

Exercise – 10 lunges each leg, 10 man makers, 10 ruck swings, 10 bicep curls

Farmer Carry to next destination

Exercise – 8 Lunges each leg, 8 man makers, 8 ruck swings, 8 bicep curls

Table carry (arms bent at 90, on forearms) to next destination

Exercise – 4 lunges each leg, 4 man makers, 4 ruck swings, 4 bicep curls (4 due to time constraints)

Strap privileges back – Double time to next destination

Part 2

Made it to my hiding spot where we got acquainted with a 10 foot cement filled pole, a 4 foot cement filled pole, and a 250 pound tire.

We carried to the next destination as a team and made it to a spot where we did some partner work.

Partner 1 runs – Partner 2 does LBC’s (rucks overhead) then swap

Partner 1 Runs – Partner 2 does Pushups – Rucks on then swap

I saw a wall so of course we did step ups with rucks on, 10 each leg.

Manned up and picked up the heavy items and made our way back to my truck where we finished with some Mary.

The smaller group was great, I focused this Q on event preparation.  If we continue to do the same thing over and over again we are never really growing and preparing for the unexpected.  This months theme is leadership and the best part of this Q was the teamwork involved.  Most of you know I’m a fan of Rucking Heavy so for me we got pretty heavy on Part 2.  It was amazing to see everyone work together and switch shoulders, spots, and look out for one another.  We talked about the importance of finishing as a team and not becoming the grey man, and that we start strong as a team and finish strong as a team.

Such a killer group and was proud to RUCK with them!
