Teen Mental Health Awareness Weinke

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Run to WEP

THE THANG:
Approx 14% of teens suffer with mental health issues. That number is probably higher.

Split into 3 groups. 1 group ran clockwise around WEP twice, another ran counter, and the 3rd ran the trail down to Harris Street and back. All groups had to run their routes shuffle run style. ~mileage 1.4. Once we returned to the start, 14 burpees then switched routes.
This time each team did 7 burpees after either 1 lap around WEP, or once they got to Harris St. then 7 more after the second lap.

Only had enough time to do 1 more lap with burpees before heading back to COT.

4 minutes until the Kraken

Leave a comment

Nice and warm for a Colosseum WO and a Flag Handoff.

With a FNG present we included the 5 core principles and the F3 mission. I started the “clock” which meant that every 4 minutes throughout the course of the workout each PAX would do 5 Kraken Burpees. With that I got into the warmup.

100 SSH (IC)
15 Merkins (IC)

So for the majority of this workout we ran to separate spots from the Colosseum Shovel Flag to the Carolina Eye Center Parking Lot. We would stop along the way where I would call different exercises in Cadence in this order.

5 Merkins (IC)
10 LBC’s (IC)
15 (Flutters IC)
20 HD (IC)
25 (Squats Low Slow IC)

As we ran back towards COT we stopped briefly into the “purple light” near the Tega Cay Coffee Truck. Everyone wondered where the glow sticks and foam pit was. Good questions obviously but it was not a rave or a college basement party so we did more Kraken Burpees.

As we approached the final few minutes Backdraft complained there were not enough squats so I obliged with 50 low slow squats that segwayed nicely into 5 more Kraken Burpees.

Got back to COT where we executed a Flag handoff to Rebound and named a FNG Blacklight.

All in all it was a good workout where we ended up with about 50 Kraken Burpees and around 150 Merkins, 180 LBC’s and just about 2 miles (slightly over or under depending on the watch)

Always honored for the lead and for the opportunity.

Thank you!

Wildcard Wednesday at Bushwood

Leave a comment

THE THANG:

Kicking off Wildcard Wednesday for the month of March at Bushwood, Cohiba gave YHC the option to switch things up and Q a workout style of my choice. We pivoted from the traditional boot camp WO and instead logged miles with pain stations.

We utilized the drive at the outer perimeter of the AO and around the school. 1.25 mi and 3 pain stations per lap. 5 burpees and 10 BBSU at each pain station. Most PAX finished 2 1/2 laps for a total of 3.5 mi.

MARY: Flutters and American Hammers (IC)

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your newsletter.
COT: What happen in COT, stays in COT.

Honored to lead.

Punishment for missing free throws

Leave a comment

WARMUP: the 0445 pre-run

THE THANG:
Shuttle runs
Using the rows in the parking lot (~20m apart) numbered 0-5, starting at 0, shuttle run to 1, return to 0. Run to 2, back to 0, etc until Pax got to 5, then start over from 1.

First 3 rounds (1 round being shuttle run through 1-5)
Burpees everytime you came back to 0. The number of burpees were equal to the number of the row you ran to.

Second 3 rounds were jump squats following the same rules as the burpees but by a factor of 4.

Last 3 rounds were 4 SC mountain climbers x the number of the row you ran to.
Those that finished before 6, did shuttle runs with no exercises.

Every 3 rounds was just over 1 mile.
