Thirty Twenty Ten

Leave a comment

Total of six pax for an awesome morning of wind and rain. I had to lash the flag to a light pole as anything else would have resulted in “flag down!”
Count was three for bootcamp and three for IPC make-up.
Bootcampers had 1980’s tunes going and did the below.
Brief warmup: SSH, windmills, stretches.
Thang: 30-20-10
Pax do 30 reps of two exercises, then do 20 reps, then do 10 reps. Run a loop (we used the bus loop). Then proceed to the next pair of exercises. One exercise of each pair used a cinder block. The exercise pairs were:
Curls (w/ cindy) – Crunches
–run loop–
KB Swings – Flutters (count only right leg)
–run loop–
Merkins – goblet squat
–run loop–
OH Press – Pickle pointers
–run loop–
Chest press – big boy sit ups
–run loop–
Side bends – leg raises
–run loop—
Curls (w/ cindy) – Crunches

30-20-10 because (in my mind/experience) 30 is the limit to executing with good form. I tend to get sloppy after that. The get down and get up aspect between exercises adds something.

Sparty Start

Leave a comment

Short mosey run

Warmup: SSH (20xI/C); windmills; Imperial Walkers; Moroccan N/C; Low Slow Sqts; big arm circles; peter parkers; plank stretches

Thang 1: Mini-Spartan:
Start at bottom of hill, run up to pull up bars, do 10 pull-ups, then out to the street and crawl under the barbed wire (2 wires), then farmers carry cinder blocks about 100 feet out and back, drop blocks, back to the bars and do 10 toes-to-bar, run back to bottom of the hill and rinse/repeat.

Barbed wire detail:
Two cinder blocks staked horizontally, string a cargo strap across to another stack of two cinder blocks.

Place a second set of barbed wire ten feet further down. Two-block height worked well in my opinion, it’s a real crawl underneath and not a bear crawl. Top view:

Dude Where’s My Car

Leave a comment

I’ve wanted to do this workout for YEARS! I was always worried we wouldn’t have enough time to do it.
WARMUP: 10 SSH, 5 Windmills
THE THANG: The Dude Where’s My Car workout is to do a rep in every parking space in the lot. There are 242 parking spots on the left side of the NaFo parking lot when facing the school from the field. Each row was an exercise, and you performed a rep in each spot. It went as follows:
Row 1 (25 spots) 1 Mountain Climber, then Bear Crawl to the next spot
Row 2 (25 spots) 1 Bobby Hurley
Row 3 (26 spots) 1 Plank Jack, then Bear Crawl to the next spot
Row 4 (27 spots) 2 Lunges
Row 5 (28 spots) 2 Merkins (this felt much like a burpee when you then got up to move to the next spot)
Row 6 (24 spots) 5 Calf Raises
Row 7 (22 spots) 2 sets of Shoulder Taps and Bear Crawl to the next spot
Row 8 (16 spots) 2 Big Boys
Row 9 (16 spots) 1 Burpee
Row 10 (12 spots) 1 Squat
Row 11 ( 10 spots) 1 Hand Release Merkin
Row 12 (11 spots) 10 single count Flutters
MARY: Since we didn’t find the car, we ran around the school to ensure we got it. Then we found our cars when we got back to COT
ANNOUNCEMENTS: T&H tomorrow. Bethel Serve opportunity 9/5/24.
COT: Prayers for kids going to college, marriages and travel.

Thanks for the push and opportunity to lead a great group of men!

Back at it #MakeSkateGreatAgain

If being truly honest, this was my 1st BC Q in quite some time (definitely over 6 months and probably closer to a year or more) and the nerves of would I remember what to do or the exercise names was real this morning…

Which reminds me of my favorite quotes:

“Nothing diminishes anxiety faster than action” ~Walter Anderson

No matter what you are anxious about, take a step… then a second… and then the next… and so on… before long you’ll turn around and see just how far you’ve come…

Funny, once we got started it was like riding a bike and all of the anxiety went away…

WARMUP: a few minutes of Broga to stretch it out a bit followed by some dynamic warmups

THE THANG: mosey to behind the JROTC building to pick up a Cindy. 5 rounds (10 reps down to 6 reps) completing each of the exercises before slow mosey to bottom of hill followed by accelerating run back to top.

Exercises w/ Cindy:
– Swings
– Overhead press
– Overhead Tricep extension
– Curls
– Upright row
– Bent over row
– Merkins
– Lunges
– Squats
– Calf raises

MARY: Shield had to bounce, so HC and I finished up our last set, returned the Cindy’s, and finished up at COT with some Mary…

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Upcoming CSAUPs

COT: ya gotta show to know!
