12 days of Christmas

Leave a comment

WARMUP:  Quick mozy followed by SSH, low slow squats, Moroccan night clubs
THE THANG:  Overhead ruck around the smaller parking lot loop.  Every time you lower your ruck, do two burpees.
Mozy to front school entrance closest to the baseball field.   Challenge was to know the 12 days of Christmas song and what happened on the first, second, third, etc day of Christmas.  To start, the group decided what the first day answer is (partridge in a pear tree) and ran to the first post in front of the school to check their answer.  The answer was correct, so the Pax did one lunge, rucked back to the fire hydrant, dropped their ruck, then ran back to the start.  Rinse and repeat with the second day of Christmas (turtle doves).  Run back to pick up ruck then run to the second post to check the answer.  There the Pax did 1 lunge and 2 ruck getups.  Rinse and repeat with cumulative exercises to the 12th day.  
  Exercises were 1 lunge, 2 ruck getups, 3 Diamond merkins, 4 flutters with press, 5 ruck swings, 6 plank jacks, 7 upright rows, 8 triceps presses, 9 curls, 10 8-count burpees, 11 ruck swings (whoops, didn’t mean to repeat), and 12 curb dips.
 Pax did great until 9 “ladies dancing”, when the penalty was to run back to the start for five  burpees then return.  11 and 12 weren’t any better, but with us running out of time, we did stationary burpees instead.
MARY:  Out dancing with the ladies
ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Lots!
COT:  Marriages, travel, family visiting.

Milk Was a Bad Choice

Leave a comment

It was a cold and dark morning, but the HIM were there bright and early ready for a nice warm glass of pain.

The Thang:

Rucked over to the Huber Graham Way for some 7’s with Hill Repeats
– 6 Squats at the top of the hill and 1 lunge at the bottom of the hill

 Rucked back over to the school for some more pain. We formed two lines for Indian Bear Crawl between the light posts.

 Rucked back towards COT for some tree huggers with overheard ruck carries.

 Back to COT for prayers and praises.

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!
