Ruck fartlek

Leave a comment

WARMUP: lap around the parking lot. Each man had opportunity to lead an exercise in cadence.
If memory serves correct it was:
Squats,
Merkins,
Standing penguins,
Imperial walkers
Moroccan night clubs
THE THANG: Fartlek style repeats focusing on keeping feet quiet (meaning less impact and less putting on brakes), keeping head steady, keeping ruck close to body, quick short steps landing on a bent knee vs an outstretched leg. We did over 2 miles worth of speed work. Very proud of the guys for coming out and getting faster. Spare rucks are always available for guys to attempt The manly thing.
MARY: keep core tight during shuffle to reduce chance of injury.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: congratulations to my wonderful M for not killing me for the first 14 years of our marriage.
COT: Grout took us out. Prayers for @shower curtain

Murder Bunnies are Wild

Leave a comment

It was a steamy morning in The Fort so the warmup was light and sweating was not optional.
– 15 Side Straddle Hops
– 10 Windmills
– 10 Cherry Pickers
– 10 Merkins
– Down Dog/Honeymooner followed by a stretch

The Thang:
There was conveniently a deck of cards and the exercises were as follows…
Aces = Murder Bunnies
King = Bear Crawl
Queen = Bunny Hop with Bell
Jack = Run a Lap
Diamond 💎 = Snatch
Heart ❤️ = Big Boy Situp with a Thrust
Club ♣️ = Curl
Spade ♠️ = Squat

Although the deck was non-face card heavy, we did do our fair share of murder bunnies 🐰 (always a crowd pleaser).

Back to COT for prayers and praises.

Diabeetus

Leave a comment

WARMUP: First, we warmed up.
THE THANG: Then we did a lot of kettlebell stuff and ran a little.
MOSTLY, we listened to what might have been the worst playlist ever conceived. From the marginally incestuous Osmonds, to the Killers, to what was probably the biggest surprise which was Wilford Freaking Brimley. The diabeetus commercial guy you say? Yes. Beloved actor who starred in the 1985 hit movie Cocoon? Yes. He’s a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? Well, he was when he was alive, yes… but please tell me THAT isn’t the thing that you find most surprising. He has albums. Of music. Where he sings. Doesn’t that shake you a little more to your core? I mean… even just a little? And to add insult to injury (and trust me, his singing was injurious), there’s not a single freaking song on his album about DIABETES TESTING SUPPLIES. Seriously, lean into your strengths, Wilford. WTF? You know diabetes supplies like no other… and yet you choose to sing about someone’s silver-haired daddy…? I’m not sure what to think anymore… I’m not sure this world was meant for me…

COT: Core Principle #5
