Coupons Around Kingsley

WARMUP:
After coming in Hot…I presented a couple of coupons to the group and we discussed the 5 core principles for the benefit of our FNG. Unfortunately, we will need to practice those so that EVERY man knows them. (it was a little rough)

THE THANG:
Once we stumbled through the 5 core principles we were off. This was my first post at Sole to Soul so I wasn’t 100% sure of the logistics or area. I was simply told rucking with exercises so I planned to deliver.
I provided a 60 lb sandbag and a 35 lb kettle bell to carry as well and the PAX were instructed to bring them along.
Our first stop was behind Epic Chophouse where we circled up and did some movements:
Slow Low Squat
Merkins
Overhead Press
Bicep Curls
SSH (slick)
We then moved to behind Replay. Here we partnered up and played a little “catch me if you can”. FNG Half Pint took this very serious and Riggins had very little chance of catching him!
After we completed some Moroccan Night Clubs we did a full lap around the Kingsley property. Halfway around we found a traffic circle for Bear Crawls followed by some Overhead claps.
Upon returning to Broadcloth street we found a gravel area for some more movements:
Squat Thrust
Swings
Bicep Curls
SSH
We then moved to COT. The fun wasn’t over as we found benches and did 20 Dips and then calf raises with rucks overhead.

MARY:
We finished with some Mary including:
Flutters w/press
LBCs
Hello Dolly’s w/Ruck press
Freddie Mercury’s
1 minute plank with Ruck
