Surviving Hero’s Fallen Hero

WARMUP: Quick disclosure, then moseyed to the pull-up bars for a Trucker approved warm-up: Windmills, Tappy Taps, SSH, & OCs – in between each set of exercises PAX started with 1 burpee + 1 pullup – graduated to 5 reps of each.
THE THANG: PAX held plank position while we read about the Heroes we were about to honor: Retired Army General Barry McCaffrey and his fallen hero Captain Dave Ragin.
We carried our Cindys down the hill, starting at the first tree on the right we lunged walk with Cindy to the next tree. At this time, the PAX performed 21 reps each of: Merkins on Cindy, Curls w/ Cindy, and OH Presses w/ Cindy. Once this series of exercises was complete, the PAX, leaving Cindy behind, jog to the pull-bars to perform 7 pull-ups and 7 ToesToBar . Pax then jogged back down the hill to pick up Cindy and lunge walk to the next tree. Continued this routine for a total of 6 stops. Upon completion the PAX were asked to conduct MARY until the 6 was in.
On to the next phase, Jack Webb series I like to call Manly Swings. JWs are 2 exercises with a 1:4 ratio and the routine is typically completed at 10:40. The first exercise was ManMakers w/ Cindy and the 2nd was KB Swings w/ Cindy. We stayed together and completed it right as time was up!!!
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Mens’ Shelter, F3 Dads, Shank’s send off Q tour.
COT: Everyone was asked to give a praise and then prayers were lifted up!

Varsity Level Prison Workout

WARMUP: Sasquatch led the pax through a Broga session, under cover as promised but no less stretchy than his usual job making the pax hurt so good!

THE THANG: The AO was set up for wet, muddy pain with blocks and bricks. Mother Nature decided to throw electrically charged javelins at the Pax so we audibled to work under cover for 15 mins. Twister validated safe status for getting out in the open, then just as we put hands to the heavy things Mother Nature three another spear our way. Pax hauled gear back and the workout resumed undercover.

Here’s what we did:
Burpees X10
Bombjacks X10
Donkey kicks x10
Shoulder taps x10 IC
…rinse & repeat…again and again and again and…

COT: Thanks to the pax for enduring “the prison workout” as Twister called it. Quite appropriate since my theme for the planned weinke that never got unleashed focused on the Mental Battle. I’m very guilty of living in my head way too often, which leads to me becoming a prisoner in my own mind. staying in one spot under threat with grueling repetitive work is an even greater mental battle than the physical grind. Everyone pushed through including all the reps with inspiringly few groans…this is a tough group! and the toughness comes because of the group. I know I wouldn’t have knocked that out solo, so thanks for being there and pushing yourself and me. great work!

It being Memorial Day, we closed out with a challenge to remember someone who has passed during the drive home (vet or not). I’m grateful to have another day and grateful for those who’ve touched my life here and continue to touch me from the other side.

thanks to Bodywash. Honored to lead!

Remembering Columbine

WARMUP:
Mosey down to lower parking lot. toy soldiers and high knees around parking lot then mosey back to ROTC building for CoP.

CoP (IC)
20 SSH, 12 IW, 12 Cherry Pickers, 12 MNCs

THE THANG:
This workout was developed as a remembrance of the Columbine High School shooting victims from 23 years ago (4/20/1999). I was a freshman in high school about 40 minutes from Columbine and had friends there that day that were thankfully not physically injured.

Everyone grabbed a cindy…

Buy-in: 21 merkins. One for each wounded victim that survived that day.

Main Event:
To honor the 13 victims that died that day (12 students and 1 teacher) we did 13s.

13s – bent over rows with the cindy at the ROTC building, 8 count body builders at lower stop sign (start with 1 row and 12 body builders, increment one row and decrease one body builder each round, end with 12 rows and 1 body builder)

Before each round the name and age of one of the killed victims was announced.

SSH were completed at the end of each round until the 6 was in.

this brought us to 05:56

Finished off the workout with 25 chest presses with cindy (IC) and then 10 OH press with cindy (IC)

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Although tragedies continue to happen seemingly endlessly – raising kind, caring kids and being leaders in our community can make an impact on those around us. This impact can reduce or mitigate the impacts of the mental health issues that lead to some of these tradgedies. Keep up the great work and hopefully we never have to deal with anything close to what happened this day 23 years ago.

AKA continues tomorrow at Minnow Pond, Blood Drive May 12

COT: prayers for mental health, our kids, Ukraine
