Spring Breaking

WARMUP: 10 burpees, SSH, 10 burpees
THE THANG: Run some stair laps repeatedly around the building with Corkscrew, partner style with 1 partner doing exercises and the other running. Ran to bottom of road below LPL, then worked our way up the hill with bear crawls, lunges, reverse bear crawls and other fun, sprinted home. Finished off with 11s comprised of Knee-Tar-Ndyaes and Big Boys.

COT: great to have Cable Guy back out along with Pirate and the Cyclops shield lock crew enjoying extra sleep and a post during spring break.

2nd of 2 Qs on the day for YHC. Grateful to have Cyclops and Old Bay along for both!

Dawn Patrol

A few proud gents doubled down during AKA and took advantage of the run/ruck option. Battle Bot was especially excited to be back at his first weekday AO in about a month by having us enjoy his 60 lb coupon.

Praises for Double D’s Jane and her marriage to Tarzan. Prayers for Spitz on the loss of his mother. :pray:

Canoli Run is May 18th.

Fun with buckets

Everyone loved my Q this past Friday. We had 3 buckets placed around the parking lot with various exercises to pick from each bucket. Many of you have struggled through it before. If you haven’t it truly is one of the more inventive and talked about workouts in the Fort. Just ask me about it next time. Really.

Somehow Anchorman was the hero as he managed to pick the one ticket that had only 2 burpees. Winner.

We had a great COT, with Spectre bringing his heart after the very long few weeks that he and his family have been through. If you’ve given them a thought or a prayer recently he is grateful.

Boogie Down can use some prayers dealing with some “Senioritis” (as we have been there) and props to Double D for this weekend’s wedding festivities. Sprocket’s excited about a 2.0 baptism and I’m traveling this weekend for the death of my stepfather. I’m sure there were others I’m missing. Safe travels for Peach Stand.

Choose not to cheat 2.0

In preparation for my Q at Ballroom, YHC reviewed a previous backblast from 2018 where the theme was choosing not to cheat based on a book by Andy Stanley. In that workout, we discussed the idea of decision making and cheating based on prioritization.

YHC still suffers from poor decision making in spite of the clear model that Concentrica offers. It’s a life long battle that I need my faith and accountability from this group to support me in making improvements.

In keeping the same theme, the Pax were challenged not to cheat on the workout today with good form and group accountability.
