Partner 2 ran down hill, 5 muscle ups and back

Next, version of impossible mile. Partner 1 – burpee broad jumps around the bus loop
Partner 2 ran opposite way and switched out with partner 1. Continued loop until teams finished loop.

The Board of Pain isn’t that hard. It isn’t completable in 45 minutes. But it ain’t about finishing, it’s about seeing how far you can go!

You:
– Show up
– Put forth the effort
– Share suffering amongst the PAX
– Build camaraderie
– Teach yourself that
– You can take on challenging tasks
– You will improve
– You accelerate when other men are striving alongside you

There are plenty of harder workouts. But the Board is doable by ALL MEN. Be present and try; that’s all it takes! You don’t have to get far; you just have to go.

How is it in our lives that we have a problem and the solution is the same? Be present and try

We ain’t getting it all done today, but today’s effort still matters!

Complex Math

Leave a comment

16 at Minnow Pond for a test of speed and math skilz.
Simple loop around town, four stops
Stop 1 – COT – Merkins
Stop 2 – Pharmacy – LBCs
Stop 3 – Parking lot – SSHs
Stop 4 – Gazebo – Squats
Back to COT for lap 2
Rep count Lap 1 was 2 for everyone
Rep count Lap 2 was 4 for everyone
Rep count Lap 3 was 6 for everyone except the lead pax, 8 reps
additional laps: Lead Pax rep counts = 2 x prior lap reps
everyone else rep count = lap # x 2
Guys out front reach the 64 rep count based on the compounding.
Short lesson, compounding can be excellent when you are looking at saving money, over time it accumulates to a nice sum of money. On the other hand, when you have issues that go unchecked, they can result in a bigger problem down the road. Make sure you keep coming out, share what’s on your mind with your shield lock.
