Tangled Mess

Leave a comment

WARMUP: arriving late (doh) I missed the warm up and when I caught up saw some SSH like activity. I jumped in with apologies for tardiness and kicked off 10x LSS, 20x Merkin, MC & Peter Parker then some runner’s stretching. Distribute resistance bands for leg warm up exercices (not enough to go around, doh), and one-arm rows, and alternate those / jump rope. While untangling the jump ropes I believe it was @band_camp who thankfully took the lead with burpees until untangling completed, if they didn’t get in 20 they got close.
THE THANG: 3 sets of exercise scrawled on crumpled paper one on each of 3 orange cones (why cones? I have no idea, I have a very nice whiteboard collecting dust in my garage, thankfully no one asked):
1: 100 Gas Pumpers, 50 jump rope, run 1/4 mile-ish
2. 25 Hello Dollies, 25 Burpees, 50 Jump Roppe, run 1/4 mile
3. 100 Big Boys, 50 Jump Rope, run 1/4 mile
MARY: 15 H2H, 20 Rosalita, 21 LBC
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots of 2nd F all over the area next week, a few postponed CSAUPs, too much for my small brain to retain, see slack
COT: Poppins took the lead asking each PAX to give thanks and ask for prayer requests which allowed each man to share more than we usually hear in COT including thanks for 2.0 recovering from potentially life threatening scare & prayers to bring us closer to our Ms and family through the holidays which always bring challenges

4 Corners

Leave a comment

Since this was my first Q at Lazarus I came early to scope out the area and think of the final touches for the Beatdown.  @Darkhelmet said this was the place to be but I guess he took the blue pill…LOL!!!  We missed you brother.  

I was getting  little worried with 5 minutes before our start time and no one was there but @Poppins rolled in followed by @Ringer just before I gave a lousy disclaimer.

We moseyed around the back of the theater to the lot in front of the theater for a warm up. 

SSH
Grandpa Jacks
Windmill
Imperial Walkers
Penny Pickers

Then @C3PO showed up just in time for the action.

We had 7 rounds of fun.  Each round we performed the exercises below in each corner of the parking lot in front of the theater.

Round 1 – 7 Burpees
Round 2 – 14 LBCs
Round 3 – 21 Merkins
Round 4 – 28 Squats
Round 5 – 21 Carolina Drydocks
Round 6 – 14 LBCs
Round 7 – 7  Mountain Climbers

We finshed with enough time to make it bag to the flag for a little stretching. 

Announcements:
– Men’s shelter – Thursday 12/7, check slack for info.
– Golf Charity event Friday 12/8, check slack for details. 
– Waxhaw ornament Exhchange and Christmas event.  I don’t remember the dates.  Check that channel or ask a Pax that may know.
– Gremlin – Mint Hill Convergence- February 10, 2024; more details to come

Prayers:
– Ringer and his Job search
– Prayers for the the Pax in General
