No more burpees….sort of.

Leave a comment

WARMUP: mosey to fire station lot
Windmills, low slow squats, imperial and hillbilly walkers and seal jacks all in cadence with a few burpees in between exercises – but just a few. YHC said no more burpees – but YHC should have said no more burpees…..for now.

THE THANG: part 1 – Mary to pull up bar for 30 seconds of pull ups or bar hangs while pax held plank. Upon completion of 6 rounds – pax moseyed on bottom of Tega cay drive hill.

Part 2 – Dora 1-2-3
100 burpees
200 squats
300 flutters

Change Order thought the idea of doing burpees and running hills was questionable. He wasn’t wrong. Pax persisted nonetheless.

Running to different points on the hill
Burpees – partner 1 run to yellow sign and back down to relieve partner 2 and flapjack.

Squats – partner 1 starts run from yellow sign to top of hill and back to yellow sign to relieve partner 2 and flapjack.

Flutters – partner 1 runs from top of hill to cluster of crepe myrtles and back to relieve partner 2

Mosey to ball field for part 3

Part 3 – left, right & center

Partner 1 planks at edge of infield behind 2nd base. Partner 2 runs to come in left field does exercise and returns to flapjack with partner 1. PAX did 3 rounds per partner

Left field cone – 10 lunges
Center field one – 20 bomb jacks
Right field cone – 30 flutters

PAX moseyed to COT for a stretch at 0728 where many of us were reminded of our lost flexibility and time was called at 0730.

MARY: she wasn’t there

ANNOUNCEMENTS: were announced

COT: 5th core principle

Thanks for the men who posted and chose the tougher thing on a chilly but glorious morning. And Uber – thanks for the call.

Honored,
Cyclops :eye:

30/30 Round 2

Leave a comment

It was a crisp morning at <#C055Y70G5QE> and the Pax were fired up for some 30/30!

1st F
Run 10 yard and nur back 5 yards with adding a burpee at every 10 yard line.
Lunge every 10 yard and squat.
Four corners action to close out 1st F.

3rd F
Over to the outdoor bathrooms for some heat and 3rd F.
Topics What does living out your beliefs look like? What does your life look like when you are aligned with your beliefs and what does it look like when you are not?

We all agreed that whatever your beliefs are, it needs to come from a place of love. The meaning of love according to Bishop Robert Barren is to will the good of the other. When you are taking steps towards love, you are taking steps towards God, because God is love.
It is most important to show love to kids because studies have shown that kids brains get wired at a young age. A pathway of love at a young age is setting the ripple effect of a child in the proper trajectory toward a life of love.

We also touched on the idea that where sin abounds, grace abounds more. The grace that we have been given by our creator is not ment to be held onto, it is ment to be given away. The spiritual physics is the more grace you give away, the more you are given in return. When we hold onto that grace, we are turning that free gift into sin.

Nice work done by all! God bless!!

That’s not a donut CB

Rain sucked. Did SSH and ran for cover where we stayed until the end. Sawdust had 2 25lb plates in his ride that we took advantage of for the duration.

Did a brief warmup and got right into it. 2 pax did exercises with plates while the rest did a mode of transport to end of carport with a 10 count exercise. Rotation fashion and did till we stopped.

Pillars of Pain

Leave a comment

Lots of rain this week, but it didn’t prevent the three men from tackling a sandbag workout. We set our bags down for warm-ups (SSHs, IWs, WMs). Big lap around the field and back to the front of the school.
Sandbag exercises in cadence: overhead press, curl, merkins, calf raise. Lunge walk to last pillar. Squats, LBCs, bend over row.
Big lap again with bag.
With 10 minutes remaining, we attempted the pillars of pain: 1 man maker at each pillar adding 1 at the next pillar. We fell short of the goal, but provided some good ideas for <@UN3JKG18C> Q next week.

Soggy Day at the Golden Corral

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
After a quick disclaimer, we moseyed around the shovel flag, picked up Olaf who was running a bit late, and made our way to the First National Bank to get shelter under their drive-through.
THE THANG:
COP (all in double count cadence): SSH x 25, windmill x 10, imperial walker x 20, merkin x 10/hold/mountain climber x 20/hold/RAH-LAH (legs if you got it)/6″/hold/6″/hold, hello dolly x 20, jumping lunge x 15.

Line up on one side of the drive-thru for Jacob’s ladder. Bearcrawl to the end of the drive-thru, do 1-5 burpees, and then bear crawl or crawl bear back to the start (5 trips up/back total)
Line up for an Indian Run around the Harris Teeter shopping center, and return to the bank drive-through for the Airborne Killer Hip Routine.

Mosey to the sidewall of Harris Teeter for extended wall sits. We did a 60s, 75s, and 90s sit (crowd pleaser). Mosey back to the bank drive through for 6 min of Mary:

Freddie Mercury x 20, Box Cutter x 15, Big Boy sit up x 20, LBC x 20, Superman Hold x 3 Mosey back to the shovel flag for some light stretching and COT.

MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: CRI run this Saturday, Dec 14. The F3 Christmas party is Saturday, Dec 21, and spots are still available.

COT: Praise for Olaf’s daughter celebrating her 8th birthday today. She was not expected to live long following her birth and is truly a miracle child! Praise for Half Shell’s son who received the Let Me Run Boy award for exemplifying the principals of LMR on his team. Well done, young man!

The rain held off for most of the workout, but we stayed undercover at the bank for most of it. I found I had a lot of extra time today so threw in the wall sits on the flay. When I checked my weinke after the workout, I realized I forgot to do a 2nd Jacob’s ladder (crabwalk/dips) that was planned after the Indian Run. Oh well, we got it done this morning and the Pax put out a great effort as usual. Well done, men!
