Monday Morning Constitutional

Leave a comment

Scheduled Q is rumored to be on IR, so YHC grabbed the stick. Welcome, no FNG’s, disclaimer was made. PAX were not content with the mediocre disclaimer, so it was redone & core principles were also reviewed. No more grumblings were heard, so we began!

WARMUP:
– 20x SSH
– 10x Imp Walkers
– 10x Hillbilly Walkers
– 10x Large Arm Circles (5/Fwd & 5/Rev)
– Farmer carry KBs to fire pit area

THE THANG:
– Find a partner – we had 8 PAX, so 4 groups. First group called an exercise. Partner #1 did reps while Partner #2 ran a lap around the parking lot following the curb around where we were gathered. Reps continued until the 6 was in, then switched. After 2nd partners completed their lap, next group called the next exercise.
– Completed 3 rounds. Audible was called between round 1 & 2 to shorten the loop. Due to time, the lap was shortened even more between rounds 2 & 3. Exercises included Man Makers, Swings, Curls, 2-for-1 combos (such as clean & press), OH Presses, Sgl Leg Deadlifts, 6″ Leg-Raised Holds w/Presses, American Hammers, and more.
– Back to COT for Mary.

MARY: Various – Rotating PAX Choice
– LBCs
– Flutters w/press
– More American Hammers
– Big Boy Sit-Ups
– Merkins (debatable as MARY but done nonetheless)

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter Dinner signup, Stuff the Bus coming up (volunteers needed & 2.0 friendly), HIM Camp spots still needing to be filled (weekend of 8/12),

COT: Praises to QT bathrooms & for Rebound making it back for COT… Prayers for all in need, both spoken & unspoken.

Running Street Jackson

Leave a comment

Tried to make a pun on an Outkast song lyric “I’m sorry Ms. Jackson” by saying “We’re running street Jackson.” But much like running Jackson Street, it wasn’t funny. (Although I laughed)

Ran for a mile
Core work for the 6
5 burpees
10 hand release merkins
16 split squats (8 each leg)

Rinse and Repeat

Keep after it. Awesome to see guys that don’t typically run 3+ miles in the gloom crush it today.

Bakers Dozen

Leave a comment

WARMUP: mosey around the lot and circle up adjacent to the bells. Various exercises with burpees sprinkled in between
THE THANG: it’s good to have a partner – took the Bells to the gym parking lot. Partner 2 ran between light poles while partner 1 started on 100-200-300: 100 curls, 200 swings, 300 flutters

When complete, pax took bells to a space of their choice in the lot and, based on the lot number, did the corresponding number of exercises with each number
Manmakers – 1st number
Swings – 2nd number
Squats – 3rd number

Switched Peking spaces and did the same.

MARY: made it back for more flutters and American hammers with the bell took us to 0600.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Yes. Read your newsletter

Good mumblechatter from the start. Then mosey back to the parking lot near the front of the school for the main event.

Alot of mumblechatter that died down as we got through the first round. Everyone got through 3 rounds of the loop until we switched things up (30reps of each exercise). Then we did some wall sits for about a minute, then on to COT for some ab/core work. GREAT JOB FELLAS!!!
Quick jaunt back to COT which wasn’t very far.

Everyone left behind a good 5-10lbs of water weight, but what a way to start the day.
