Snake Pit turned into a Keg party. 7 PAX decided to drink the pain this gloomy morning, whereas Bobber arrived late and was scared so decided to do Bushwood.

Pax carried 2 kegs, a sandbag, and a ruck, along with their respective kettlebells to the top of the hill. Did a short COP and mossy down the hill to the first intersection where storage building was. Came back up and paired up for an easy DORA. 100 KB swings, 200 squats, 300 LBCs w/KB. The partner carried one of the coupons down the hill to the second Bus sign and back.

once completed, carried all coupons and KB to Bus sign. half the group ran to the pull up bars to complete 5 pull-ups. The other half completed as many reps as the chose for curls, OH press, bent over rows, squats. Once the first group is back the second group runs to do pull-ups.

Mossy back to COT!

Bootcamp Q-School

Leave a comment

PAX ran around for some pearls on a string. At each stop, YHC worked to espouse some of my ideas on Qing. At the last stop prior to COT, other PAX took opportunity to count in cadence

Topics I tried to cover:
Counting the number present while calling SSH
Calling exercises in cadence – slower can be better
Keeping the PAX together – planking up
Modifying the Weinke based on numbers
Making mistakes as Q and moving forward
Having 11s in your back pocket
Be willing to leave something and mosey on
The mission of F3 involves building leaders. Do it. Build the leadership in yourself and in the other me that post with you.

Closed COT without a prayer, but took a moment to focus on someone in your life that needs an extra effort or word from you today. Challenged PAX to contact that person after they’d showered this morning.

What idiot called this?

Leave a comment

PAX showed up expecting for Shady to be on Q (which explains the large numbers). They had to settle for me, but I’m just happy to be Shady’s understudy. Hope he gets back to 100% soon

WARMUP:
SSH, IW, HW, Shoulder Taps, Peter Parker, Parker Peter, Merkin

THE THANG:
Extra weight. PAX had rucks, sandbags, and bells galore in honor of Gear MAYhem

3 groups
1 took a lap and did swings for the 6
2 groups carried weight the length of the parking lot, did 10 merkins, 15 squats, and came back.

Then we rotated. After everyone got to run we add weight

Between each set of 3 rounds:
(With no extra weight on)
5 manmakers
5 cleans (each side)
5 overhead presses (each side)

We got through 3 sets of 3 rounds

At one point during set 3, I causally and in a very neutral tone mentioned that my grip was shot. Vuvuzela pointed out that he’d never heard anybody gripe about their own Q so much. Maybe I mentioned something earlier too?

MARY: Uhaul Q-jacked for Mary a little early by my clock, but he doesn’t like manmakers.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter, lots of community impact going on!

COT: doing one thing really well is better than 5 things done halfway. Bear reminded us today that form matters. Do a good squat.

THE THANG:
There were plenty of sandbags to go around.

PAX split up into groups of 3, each group with a sandbag and everyone with a KB.

Routine went as followed:

After 2 workouts everyone planks up until the 6 gets in, then performs 7 manmakers as a group.

Repeat 2 more times

Workouts as followed:

Squats – Merkins – Manmakers
Beakers (A Uhaul with an added overhead press) – Rows – Manmakers
