Dump Truck Mayhem

Leave a comment

Bringing the Kitchen Sink theme Eastward to The Premier CRHS AO, Bushwood. Coupons were everywhere—and I do mean everywhere! The frequent 5:45am dump truck visit was right on time at the middle school bball courts across Spitz’s namesake driveway, White Rd. The pax did a nice job, as instructed, creating a Cindy barrier to test our dear friend, The Dump Truck Driver’s, wit. Barricade be damned…our friend made meat mince of the ill-formed concrete blocks. As he accelerated towards our barricade, the pax stared in amazement in disbelief that our obstacle would do no good, and no good it did. Slash’s donated Cindy (one of six we’ll call Charlie) came as one unit. Charlie left as a pile of ruble with a splitting headache I’m sure. Poor fella took the full brunt of an accelerating 5 ton dumper determined not to be delayed in route. Charlie’s funeral at COT was a somber occasion, but we made the best of it as YHC turned the theme into Disruption and Perseverance. Unfortunately Charlie’s perseverance was for not—Slash, liking only the beautiful and pristine, declined Charlie a home for his return.

Preparedness at the Coaches Box

Leave a comment

Weather was 32 degrees and chilly but the lights were on and YHC was prepped for a Q to discuss Jester and Preparedness

Simply defined, the Jester is temptation of the flesh that hinders Acceleration. It is a stumbling block that a man continuously trips over in his effort to become a Pro.

The Jester tells a man several lies including:

1. You are the boss of me
2. You are what you do
3. You are not a bad guy
4. Jester and Virtue can coexist
5. You can’t live, if living is without me

But the antidote to the Jester is preparedness, preparing for what is expected and what is unexpected. The addition of love to this preparation leads to diminishing the Jester. But it is a battle that a Man must fight throughout his life.

THE THANG:

Mosey to the front of FMHS

Do Great Things Today

Leave a comment

After the disclaimer, we began our journey around town. First stop, the pharmacy for some warm-ups (SSHs, Imperial Walkers, Fast Windmills, Merkins, Peter Parker, Parker Peters). Next Stop, the former location known as Hardees. Partner exercises: Elevated merkins, feet on back of partner in plank position. Second set, planking partner elbows on ground.
Next stop, Post Office. Lineman push – partner 1 pushes partner 2, flipflop.
Next stop, Unity Church. Partner wheel barrow to the stairs of the church, each rest break 5 merkins. flipflop. mosey to Footloose parking lot. One partner started the bear crawl to the end of the parking lot. Partner 2 ran to the end and back to take over for partner 1. Both finished at the end of the parking lot. Next , we moseyed to the bottom Williamson St. All you got to the top of the hill. Once all made it up the hill, I took a minute to talk about how I get ready for the day. Take a shower after the workout (good hygiene). I look into the mirror and repeat these word “I am going to do great things today.” Sounds a little silly, but we need men ready to lead in our communities..do great things.
ok, back to the workout..on our way back to COT, we stopped by the Print Shop for a pitcher of pull-ups. Back to COT for a few minutes of Mary.
Great job Guys!
