War eagle swoops down to attack the liger

Leave a comment

WARMUP: yes…ran up the hill by the football stadium for SSH, windmills, merkins, Moroccan night clubs, squats, and some stretching of the shoulders.
THE THANG: deck of cards was the game. Every 6 cards we ran about 100 yards and back. And let’s just say the exercises didn’t line up so well with the cards.
Diamonds: 2-7 were merkin with a KB pull; 8-A (fan favorite) we’re man makers
Spades: 2-7 lunges with bell; 8-A squat thrusters
Clubs: 2-7 flutter with a press; 8-A American hammers
Hearts: 2-7 curls; 8-A KB swings
MARY: nada
ANNOUNCEMENTS: 10 year coming up
COT: prayers for YHC’s M for job offer (which she got the next day), health for friends and families, schools and kids

The Bushwood Gamble

Leave a comment

While I tagged the entire PAX from both AOs, the BB is only for Bushwood.
WARMUP: Essentially non-existent. We ran to the bottom of the hill on the backside of the school. We then NUR’d about 75 yards back up the hill then ran back down to the benches for 30 Derkins. We then did 15 pull-ups, ran to the stop sign, NUR’d back for 15 more pull-ups & planked for the 6.
THE THANG: Run back to the parking lot for the deck of cards:
For the 1st-Timers, each suit is an exercise and each card represents the reps (Ace=14).
Hearts: Jump Squats
Diamonds: Diamond Merkins
Spades: Carolina Dry Docks
Clubs: V-Ups
For the other 4 cards, ya know, the ones that have the ads or some other nonsense on them, those were 25 American Hammers I/C.
MARY: Included in the above.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read the NYT article, watch (record) Fox News at midnight tonight for additional F3 sharing. Be grateful for this brotherhood and welcome the FNGs.
COT: You had to be there.

Often all that’s necessary to succeed is to just not quit. But often I’ll quit on my parenting priorities because a screen is easier, or I’ll quit on house work cause there will be more laundry tomorrow….why do I refuse to quit on 8-count burpees, but don’t transfer that over to other areas of my life? Need to work on transferring the durability we build on the gloom to my entire life
