WARMUP: disclaimer and go. No messing around.
THE THANG: Ran to the bank for stop 1. 5s and 10s.
– 5 = hand release merkin
– 10 = squats with chin up and hands touching the ground

Next stop was First National bank…5s and 10s. Thanks to Change Order for the idea for the next stop.

Next stop was the round about by model A. 5s and 10s with a 30 count in cadence of flutters.

Head down Hubert Graham to the bottom of the hill. 5s and 10s with 15 in cadence flutters partially sitting up.

Up HG to the light which wasn’t super close so was out of gas at the top. 5s and 10s with American hammer.

Now to head back the same way we came with 5s and 10s at each of the same stops.

Back at COT we did 5s with hand release diamonds and 10s of jump squats.

Berkshire Loop

Leave a comment

WARMUP: None – Not @ STL
THE THANG: Nine HIMs showed up ready to put in work for a Baxter-to-Berkshire loop beatdown. We took off on foot for the Berkshire loop, stopping at every stop sign to drop:
• 5 Jump Squats
• 5 Regular Squats
• 15 Merkins

:vertical_traffic_light:Those stop signs added up fast — and so did the burn.

We completed 3 total loops. The final lap brought a twist for YHC who called an audible and cut the reps to squeeze in that last lap. Strong move for max mileage but serval PAX got them in.

:straight_ruler: Distance: Just shy of 4 miles
:fire: Legs were smoked. Chests were tight. Spirits were high.
MARY: None

Message of the Day
:clock4: Today is National Leave the Office Early Day.

It’s a great reminder that time is something we don’t get back.
That’s why I try to stay focused during the day—avoiding distractions like social media or unnecessary tasks—so I can truly disconnect and spend time with my family in the evenings.

I work out early in the morning before the day starts, not just for the routine, but so my evenings are open and intentional.

If we manage our time wisely during the workday, we create space for what matters most after it.
Work hard. Be efficient. And make sure your time reflects your priorities.
