Had these legs all my life

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, IW, HW, yoga, mosey
Humane Burpee – look it up

THE THANG:
Farmers Carry towards the school courtyard
Stop a few times along the way for 5 of each
Goblet Squat
Squat and Press (each side)
Good Morning
Single Leg Deadlift (each side)

Got to the courtyard. Bearcrawl with the bell stopping for one manmaker at each light

At the end, built up into a kettlebell flow with each arm;
Swing
Clean
Squat
Snatch
as we left we added an overhead lunge at the end.

Mixed and match how many times we did each side
MARY: one moment of core, but there was so much mumblechatter and very little work. So, we agreed to do four burpee snatches instead.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read your newsletter
COT: prayers for marriage, parents, travel, our nation

NMM: not sure why, but I need deadlines to get some things accomplished in my life. Set a deadline on when you’ll go on your next date with your M, or when you’ll do something with just you and your kiddos. Be proactive about it. I know I have to; otherwise it is relegated to a “someday” activity.

A privilege to lead

Q-School Session 2

Leave a comment

For Q-School, we focused on a solid warmup in cadence.
Had the newer PAX build some reps.

Also worked to push the PAX a bit with a DORA, and then some Pearls on a String. Small discussion of how these workouts function and how to describe them before executing them. Focused mainly on basic exercises, there’s no need to do a 12-count exercise before you can count imperial walkers.

Exercises we stuck around:
Merkin
Squat (& low slow variety)
Imperial Walker
Side Straddle Hop
Burpee

Some discussion of in-cadence vs. single count. We had the PAX work on cadence count again once they were winded after running the Bus Route Hill.

I encourage PAX to review the Q101 document https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zFiVyspf1Xph6GIv-r-z5brONWUzhEYrBvXzbnKfdBc/edit?usp=sharing and the Fort’s Workout Q Handbook https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1TSlzhBPmkrGp3_kI7qA-UpI57tSVzo_mdyKpqXAJQ4k/mobilebasic

Remember to observe the PAX, ask the Site Q to cover the 6, take command, and to HAVE FUN. It’s a free workout group! Yes, we are strivign to be better, but put some personality and joyfulness into your Qs!
