Message on leadership was all around the class I took on Managing Through a Crisis. The class was designed around Captain Sully and the Miracle on the Hudson. Best class I have taken in my professional career. See attached link for the 6 key takeaways.

3 lessons, lucky 7’s & Dora Jr.

Leave a comment

WARMUP: mosey to gym parking lot
All exercises were 10 D/C I/C with 5,4,3,2 & 1 burpee respectively in between sets

Windmills
Imperial walkers
Hillbilly walkers
Low slow squat – holding people’s chair on the last rep then did 10 MNC’s D/C I/C
Plank with stretches along with merkins and shoulder taps.

Side straddle hops x 30 D/C I/C

THE THANG: off to the west side of the high school for lesson 1

Lesson 1 – all leaders are readers
7’s between the light poles – squats and hand Release merkins

Mosey to the pull up bars with 5 burpees OYO half way there.

Lesson 2 – Habits compound daily. 1 penny that doubles for 30 days yields $5.37 MM. As we lay bricks, remember this.

7’s – pull ups and Diamond merkins running between the bars and the entrance. Group stayed together. No man left behind.

Mosey to small east side parking lot for lesson 3.

Lesson 3 – accelerate with someone else. We can’t maintain discipline on our own like we can with others. In that spirit……

Partner Dora Jr. – 50 hand release merkins and 100 squats. Flutters upon completion and a mosey to COT.

MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: yes
COT: 5th core principle

100 yards of fun

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Quick mozy around the perimeter of the band practice area (parking lot/football field).  Brief warmup of mountain climbers followed by squats and plank jacks.

THE THANG:
– Partner leapfrog starting in the endzone with partner 1 lunge walking to the 10 yard line and doing 10 merkins.  He then runs to the 20 yard line.  At the same time, partner 2 does 10 merkins in the endzone then runs to the 10 and lunge walks to the 20.  Flip flop until full length of field covered.  
– With minor confusion after round 1, we modified and returned as a group to the original start with bear crawls, jogging and 15 squats every 20 yards.

– Cones were then set out every 10 yards to the 50 with one exercise on each. Pax would run to the 10 and do 10 reps of the exercise shown, then run to the far end of the field to reach the next 10 yard line and repeat the exercise. Pax would then repeat coming back down the opposite side of the field and stop at each 10 yard line for 10 reps.
– After a full lap, Pax moved to the 20 and did 20 reps at each 20. Laps and reps increased until we reached the 50.
– Exercises and total reps completed:
– 10 yard line: 8-count burpees (40 total)
– 20 yard line: squats (80 total)
– 30 yard line: plank jacks (120 total)
– 40 yard line: SSH (160 total)
– 50 yard line: Merkins (100 total)

– With a little time remaining we returned to the end zone and bear crawled the length of the lot. At each 10 yard line we did 10 LBCs. (100 total)

– Closed things out by walking back the length of the field/lot to COT. On the walk we discussed empathy and the importance of understanding other’s perspectives to provide insights into their beliefs and actions. Pax was encouraged to apply it at home, work and while traveling on I-77 during rush hour.

YHC was not paying attention to the time and was called out on it so I Omaha what we were doing and headed to COT.

COT & ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Notably we held CSPAN style discussion around the circle on what are we struggling with. It’s important to note that as we went around with each Pax’s voicing their struggles we all related to every one of those aspects. Guys we are not alone and it’s much easier to go this journey through life is undoubtedly more manageable when we stand together rather than facing it in isolation.” I implore you to be more vulnerable in COT. Prayers and Praises.
