In Honor Of September, 11, 2001

WARMUP: All PAX but Shield dropped in the plank with their ears wide open to listen to our brother Shield share his experience as an NYPD officer on 9/11/2001. This included the names of a few of Shield’s fallen brothers. Some of us have been fortunate enough to hear him talk about that day but every time I hear it, I take away something new. This morning was no different.
Following the plank, we mentioned a few numbers of significance for the PAX to think about:
9 & 11: This was obvious
22: Years since that day 22yrs ago
100: The number of days Ground Zero in NY smoldered
ALL PAX 100 Side Straddle Hops (50 in cadence) & 22 Burpees

THE THANG: Grab your bell and meet over by Clickbait’s trailer where we had more gear. Everyone has a weight of some kind for the following 9 exercises:
11x Kettle Bell Swings
11x Thrusters
11x Goblet Squats
11x Bent Over Rows
11x Overhead Tricep Extensions
11x Big Boy Sit-ups w/ Weight
11x Bicep Curls
11x Standing Lunges
11x Overhead Press

We went through these 9 exercises one more time and occasionally modified the cadence.

In groups of 4, we all got to experience the 200lb sand bags for 4 reps, taking the bag from the hips, to the shoulders, to an overhead position, back to the shoulders and finally, back to the hips. If we weren’t on the 200lb sand bag, we did the same evolution with our own coupon.

Then, back to 22 Side Straddle Hops & 11 Burpees.

MARY: Throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Lots in the newsletter & THE BLOOD DRIVE
COT: Indeed

Buckets… again.

Nice group this morn found three sets of buckets with painful suggestions inside and some nice running in between stations. The Shorty’s watch said 1.7 miles and I guess that includes the time I caught him (not mall) walking.

We can feel the cooler air coming and see the leaves staring to fall as we admire God’s creation. Prayers for my friend Amy, our kids and school folks, and thankful for those around us who are patient mentors.

Bubble about to burst?

The buckets of pain made a return to the Bub, with YHC and The Twister participating. It was a repeat of a few weeks ago, when YHC and The Twister were also then the only Pax available to participate.

The mumblechatter was as equally satisfactory as before. We chose the pain from each of three buckets spread about and there was sweat. I’d like to thank The Twister for the opportunity.
