The Yard – 3 Aug 2024

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We did.
THE THANG:

There was a lot of back and forth down the field and back with 6-inch holds and exercises and such. Threw in some burpees, and partner carries, and bear crawls. It’s all Julie Andrews and my favorite things… that’s for Band Camp…

Went up to the parking lot track and did some more exercises and loops on the track.

– JCruise took a dump on the 50-yard line and blamed it on the dog. Or maybe it was the other way around… I forget
– FunHouse died of dysentery on his way back across the expansive plains to his home, Oregon Trail style…
– Spider-Man changed into his (not present) shirt after the workout…
– Gears went sleeveless to show off his newly acquired Hawaiian tan…
– Maximus was glad we didn’t do 81 burpees to start our workout…
– Tapout (11) carried Headspin for 50 yards, thus reinforcing my statement about being grown f-ing men. But he promises to keep himself in check in front of his mom…
– Time Machine loves ducks. Like, it might be an unhealthy focus of his life…
– Drop Thrill knows how to keep a man humble…
– 3D (if you haven’t noticed) is accelerating whilst shedding his former self…
– Suplex agrees that we don’t use the word “whilst” nearly enough…
– Yoyo Ma was the War Daddy today. He won’t read this, so I can write whatever I want about him…
– Sprocket continues to fill out his rewards card. Just a few more punches and I think he gets one free workout. Or an ice cream cake or something like that…
– Ruby Slippers loved doing a 6-inch hold. I’ll just leave that there.

When truth pulls up next to you in its limo, rolls down the window and asks you if you have any Grey Poupon, you can pass it this report as a substitute.
no poop was actually created or discovered at the 50 or any other yard line.
no Poupon was actually created or discovered at the 50 either…

Find some time this weekend to give a little to someone else. We make time for things that matter to us, so give some of that time to someone you love. Maybe spend a few minutes listening to your wife about her week. Maybe find time to play that game your kids have been asking to play with you. Maybe help your neighbor in their yard. Whatever it is, just do it – not for the recognition, but because you care. I promise it will make your day a little brighter.

Aye!

Do the Shuffle

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Gave the usual intro and then we got after it.

THE THANG: We toured the longer Kingsley loop and the rucks stayed on the whole time. Starting from COT we had our first 10min ruck interval, 5min rucking followed by 5min of ruckshuffling.
Stopped by a group of benches for our first pain station.
25 – Step-Ups
25 – Alt. Lunges
25 – Incline Merkin w/ 2 shoulder touches at the top = 1 rep

Onto the next 10min ruck interval. This time we rucked for 4min. and then ruckshuffled for 6 min.
Stopped at the round-a-bout towards the back entrance for our next pain station.
150 total reps – Squats and Calf Raises (PAX chose how they wanted to split up the reps )
Then completed 1 lap via BearCrawl around the round-a-bout

Marched right into our next ruck interval – 3min ruck followed by 7min of ruckshuffling.

Ended up at the amphitheater area for our next pain station where there were plenty of more benches to utilize.
20 – ButttouchSquat followed by 2 alt lunges = 1 rep
15 – Incline Merkin followed by 2 Grave Diggers = 1 rep

From that pain station we moved into our final ruck interval – 2min ruck followed by 8min ruckshuffle which we completed in the parking lot behind Panera. Last call was at 1min as PAX were asked to ruckshuffle back to COT.

MARY: No time
