Everyone has a burden

Leave a comment

WARMUP: windmill, hula hoops, hoops hula, low slow squats
THE THANG: pick your poison from the junk in my truck. Head towards “the office* pull up bar location where each PAX did best attempt at pull ups while wearing a ruck. Every 5 mins or so we would pull an exercise out of the roller bag and perform before rotating to a new coupon. Noteworthy items were the meat hammer, and the worst pot of chili ever. Honorable mention to the mirror.
Finished the stroll through the woods with a death climb back up to Tega Cay Middle School parking lot where we quickly dropped the weights and shuffled to COT.
MARY: no time

COT: prayers for marriage and family members.

Sweet Route

Leave a comment

I thought it would be a good idea to write down my Q on a slip of paper to make sure I remembered everything about our stops this morning. Yep, lots of Q mocking.
Simple workout this morning, we stopped at every ice cream/dessert shop between the AO location and Gold Hill Road. Short disclaimer, we are crossing roads, look out for cars.
Exercises at each stop: Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs. reps determined by a complicated mathematical equation.
First stop: Dairy Queen, Earlier arrivals: SSHs, rep count 10
DQ was the only franchise in my home town. We had a late bus that would take us home after football practice. The bus driver stopped at DQ and let us purchased food while she dropped off the other students on the other side of town. Only rule was she was not waiting for anyone on the way back. I ordered a chicken sandwich (Bad Choice) which took longer than normal and I got left at the DQ. Luckily, I was able to get a ride back to my bus stop before the bus arrived.
Back to the workout:
Stop #2 – Pelicans – Over 100 flavors of ice, open for over 20 years.
Early Arrivals – Jump Squats,
Rep count 20 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Stop 3 Dunkin Donuts –
Early Arrivals – Plank
Rep count 15 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Fifteen represented the number of Dunkin Donut stops located between my apartment and work when I lived in MA. Best donut – Jelly filled cruller (I don’t think they make them any more, but if you find them let me know).

Stop 4 – Brewsters – Over 150 ice cream flavors, open 1989
Early Arrivals – Lunges
Rep count 35 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Stop 5 – Abbotts – Over 121 flavors, open in 1902
Rep count 30 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Back to COT.

Ice cream is one of my favorite food groups. Each shop has many choices, like our lives, we have many choices. Our attitudes toward family, friends, and others. Our interactions with coworkers, clients, and people we meet throughout the day. Choose to be better.

FITS is on fire to trigger the alarm!

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Goal 1, get moving. Check. Goal 2, listen to feedback, then action. Check.

Started with short mosey to front of school to distance us from the sweet sounds of the school fire alarm which was the indicator FITS was in the house (or that the mother of all Clemsons had been dropped by Slash).

We did a big tour of the school stopping to do 2-3 exercises at each stop where the warmup turned into “the Thang”.  He was the warmup portion: windmills, low slow squat, cherry pickers, imperial walkers, merkins, down dogs, honeymooner, lunges, CDD.
THE THANG: Making our way to the back of the school, we stopped at the picnic table benches when HarryCarrey said “look benches”. #ListenAction

The benches offered us a stop for dips and Bulgarian squats. Not wanting to stay in one place, we vacated to the pull up bars where we did pull-ups, 30 second hang, knee to chest lifts from the bar. Next stop was in front of the elementary school at the bottom of the hill. 6 count burpees and jump squats.

Next stop, back of the school for more benches and Astro turf. More dips, CDD, team sit-ups, and laughter ensued single file leg lift throw downs. Good for those still on the turf, not so good for those that ran out of turf.

Next stop, almost off school grounds in the way back for: diamond merkins and BandCamp favorite, calf raises. And more low slow squats.

As we made our way back to COT, we paid homage to Al Gore and shoulder taps. Back up the hill when HarryCarry said “what about derkins” where stopped at the top for derkins, but not the kind HC wanted. #ListenAction. Partner up for 20 derkins where partner 1 planked and partner 2 put feet on partner one to perform derkins – swap after 20. Stopped at pull up bars for more pull ups and leg lifts before COT.
MARY: Circle up for rotating Mary before 0600.

Message: always with listening, there’s an action to be taken. Not everyone has to like the action or the decision to not take an action, but that’s leading. Indecisiveness leads to lack of trust and fear of failure. Failing faster leads to growth, practice, and learning to prepare better.
