The day the Corn Dog was made:
Mark your calendars that today the 21st of April 2021, was the day the corn dog exercise was born. More on that later…

YHC arrived early to sling some cones and hide “Presents” within the cones for use later during the workout. Brought out the Qsource dry erase board from the pits of my truck for the PAX to view the key Socratic and Spurs for Q-point 1.10 Prayer. Been really digging the acceleration recently of all 3F’s, humblebrag I know, for YHC so I have been really looking to the HIM around me and really trying to encourage them to get better and to become even better HIM.

Disclaimer was disclaimed to the kettlebell studs and we started to walk towards the downhill portion going to the back of the school where the cones were placed. Yes, they were not in a perfect line and that had Birdcage all in a fuss. Started out just going from cone to cone performing the exercises. 10 of each because I like to keep it simple and to be honest, I can’t count out loud and think at the same time.
Exercises were:
SSH slick,
Flutters with a press,
Curls,
Bear crawls,
Squat thrusters,
Big boy burpees,
Overhead presses,
Then we played a quick game of Charge where the PAX move forward three cones the everyone performs the exercise at their own pace. Then we move back two cones and try to perform as many reps of that listed exercise before the time runs out. You know that the time runs out because the frst person to finish the 10 reps reaches inside the cone and finds a snap pop firework that is not your typical one your kids play with. They are legit.
Once the first person finishes the exercise and lights the fire it signals to everyone else no matter what rep count they were on to Charge up the hill to the destination 3 cones away. This went on for a little while until we made it all the way to the top. So what should we do besides make our way back to the bottom of the hill and rinse and repeat? During the second round, there was a lot of grumbling about the big boy burpees so for those that are unfamiliar: Its a burpee but once you hit the ground you roll over to your back and perform a big boy situp before rolling back over to your chest to perform the merkin then finishing the burpee. Clap is optional, sorry Memphis. All of the rolling around on the pavement made for some awesome birthing sounds until someone said that they felt like a corn dog getting rolled around in tasty cornbread flour and ready for the pan so what was once called the big boy burpee is and will forever be referred to as The CornDog thanks to one of my favorite PAX, the half man/half amazing stud himself…Kelly “CoPay” Fields.

After the second round we had a few minutes to spare so YHC showed the PAX how not to explain the starting position for the next exercise which was a little bit of sharpening of our “Prepardness” to overcome the unexpected situation of an active shooter situation or an attempted kidnapping snatch and grab. Two pax face each other in the plank position with a kettle bell or weight in between each other. YHC says go and the PAX not facing up the hill jumps up to his feet grabs the “shorty desquised as a heavy coupon, and tries to make it to the top of the hill before the other pax tries to chase him down but not before having to perform 3 hand release merkins. It was a great time and CoPay is still faster than you even with a kettle bell.

Hussle back to COT for Count-A-Rama, Name-A-Rama, and prayers/praises.

Thank you for the opportunity 3D to lead these fine men and I hope it was worth unfartsacking yourself this morning.

Stay Frosty my friends!
