Four sets of ten (minutes)

WARMUP: Skipped it. To much “thang” to do.
THE THANG: The plan was simple, complete four ten minute stations in different locations in 45 minutes. To stay on track, we did a 5:14am disclosure and skipped the obligatory warmup of SSH, windmills, etc.
Quick mozy to station one by the closed dental practice to pickup stones from the dry creek bed. For ten minutes we used the rocks for 20 reps each of flutters with press, triceps extensions, biceps curls, upright rows, halos, and presses. After ten minutes we returned the stones and ran to the church parking lot for station two.
Station two was simple; running for ten minutes. One long length of the parking lot was a run, at the end we walked to the next straightaway then sprinted back. At the end we walked until we got back to the start for the next run/walk/sprint/walk cycle. Rinse and repeat until the timer went off and we ran to the shelter for station three; body weight exercises.
At station three we did 20 reps each of calf raises, step ups, dips, merkins, Carolina dry docks, and bomb jacks. Rinse and repeat for ten minutes. When the ten minute timer went off we ran to COT for station four; Mary.
At station four we did 20 reps each of LBCs, box cuttahs, flutters, BBS, Freddy Mercurys, leg lifts to 45 degrees. Rinse and repeat for 10 minutes.
We were able to get almost all of it completed by 6:00.
MARY: Included in the thang
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Gold, HIM camp, newsletter

Grating of Cheese

We started the workout off this morning with some foreign concept…this thing called stretching, and the PAX dug it.

7s – Burpees and squats with a loop around the parking lot in between each set.

The Cheese Grater – This was a fan favorite this morning. It is similar to an Indian Run :running: but you are planking with bear crawls and pushups. It was terrible as Sir Charles says.

Dora: Partner 1 – 100 flutters, 200 Hello Dollies, and 300 LBCs. Partner 2 – Run a lap around CVS.

Back to COT for prayer slow and praises.

Prayers for Half Shell’s mom, Charlie Kirk, family, and country.

Double Deuces at The Corral

NO RAIN!!! I used my super secret weather control satellite, that the conspiracy theorists say the government has, to turn it off just in time for 0515 start. All that did was ramp up humidity though. Back to the drawing board on that….
WARMUP: Quick jaunt to the roundabout median down Stockbridge Dr towards the apartment complex. In the circle median, circle up for the following (everything 4 count):
– 15 SSH
– 10 WM
– 15 IW
– 15 MNC
– 10 strawberry pickers
Then mosey through the apartment complex to the other roundabout, with the fountain, and to the corner of the apartment complex entrance at Grant Farm Dr for…..
THE THANG:
Pendulum 22s
The apartment complex entrance at Grant Farm Dr, near the water fountain, is ‘home base’. We will be doing 11s, but up both hills on Grant Farm Dr, the pendulum, so it is 11s x 2 = 22s. Do the exercise at home base, run up the hill towards 160 to the fire station, do the exercise at the fire station, then back down to home base, do the exercise again at home base, then run up the other hill to to exercises at the corner of Palmdale Walk Dr and Grant Farm Dr. Then run back down to home base. That is one round. In form of 11s, you start off at 1, 10, 1, 10, then round 2 is 2, 9, 2, 9, then round 3 is 3, 8, 3, 8. Continue all the way to 10, 1, 10, 1. Exercises are:
– Home base – 10 LSS hand touch to ground
– Fire station – 10 merkins
– Palmdale Walk corner – 10 CDDs

If you got all the way to the end, you end up doing 110 LSS, 55 merkins, and 55 CDDs, and about 3.2 miles with hills. That was a burner!

Senator Tressel and Autobahn finished it. Myself and Half Shell got to starting the last round. GREAT PUSH by all!!

MARY: No time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read the newsletter, get involved.
COT: Alot lifted up.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead! SYITG
Blessings,
