Crossing State Lines

Leave a comment

Very Simple Concept this morning in the rainy wet Gloom. We Ruck Shuffle for 1:20 then do merkins or Squats then ruck shuffle some more… wash rinse repeat until we go all the way to the SC/NC border and back. This is just about a 5k distance.

Good mumble chatter along the way as we got back to TCES with 14 minutes to spare.

We did some more shuffling while doing curls, pressed, man makers and more squats.

Finished right at 6:00.

Awesome to workout with these men today. Humbled that 6 other guys joined me in the cold and rain.

Be thankful for all our opportunities gentlemen! Take care! 👊👊👊

On like Donkey Kong

Leave a comment

Warm-up lap around the carpool line with ruck only. Circled back to pick up sandbags and headed to the Amphitheater. Carried bag and ruck to first level, 10 ruck swings. Followed path back down to the bottom with ruck only. Bear crawled back to bag, carried both to second level, 15 squat thrusters, and back to bottom with ruck. Bear crawl back to bag, carry both to next level, 15 man makers. One more level, kind of like Donkey Kong without the flaming barrels. Bear crawl to the top level, flutter with ruck overhead, 25 in cadence,
Next, we traveled back to the front of the school with ruck and sandbags. We each took turns moving the sandbags between the cones, about 50 yards while the others performed exercises with their rucks. When it was my turn to move the sandbags, I called man makers and quickly changed the exercise after the “Debbie Downer” faces from the other pax. We did arrived at the flag a bit early so we finished up with man makers.
Great job everyone!

Sandbags and logs

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Windmills, 4 count squats, imperial Walker’s, merkins, then light ruck shuffle to loosen everything up.
THE THANG: Buy in: every 2:30 complete the following w/ruck on entire time: 10 squat cleans w/sandbag, 10 merkins, 10 OH sandbag press and 10 bentover sandbag rows. 4 rounds for 10 mins total. Honestly this was a terrible idea. It takes almost the entire 2:30 to complete so very little rest between rounds.
Quick break to recover them grab a couple of sandbags and move to back of school. Grab the logs, 3 PAX per log and move them back to front of school. Each team front rack carried their log the length of the parking lot. On other end perform 10 team overhead log presses then 10 team log squats. Front rack carry log back to start point. Set log down then complete the following: 3 rounds of 3 exercises. 1st round is 21 reps of each, 2nd round is 15, and last round is 9. 3 exercises were front ruck squats, overhead ruck presses, and swings.
Pick up the logs and take them back to spot behind school. Grab sandbags and move back to cars. Couple of minutes left so another 3 round, 3 exercise routine. This time reps are 15, 10, then 5. Exercises were overhead lunges, ruck curls, and flutters. Times up. Work was done and no one was injured. Successful morning!
Thx Sprocket for the opportunity.
