You’re Living in a Relay

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH (of course/, seal jacks, mtn climber, Peter Parker, Parker Peter, Windmill, mosey to Lowes

THE THANG: After a wandering mosey through Lowe’s Mulch Maze (think corn maze) without getting lost, we took advantage of a long tunnel of mulch for most of the rest of the way, relaying in two teams while mixing in all sorts of exercises and modes of transport. We transitioned to the end of strip center where Cindy was waiting our arrival for some People’s chair while passing Cindy along and back.

The relay theme was relevant to D2D on Saturday as well as the generational relay we all live within — things we picked up from prior generations of family and things we pass on to future generations. Pax swapped perspectives on their experiences. What have you inherited? What are you passing on?

MARY: only time for Plank Jacks
ANNOUNCEMENTS: March 1 farewell for Battle Bot at Alcatraz, March 14 convergence, March 15 Jaeger
COT: prayers for Battle Bot’s move, struggling kids/parents

1% better at Slow Burn

Leave a comment

YHC was honored to be given the Q stick at Slow Burn and challenged the Pax to get 1% better this AM. You see, status quo is comfortable and safe because it is known. Showing up to an AO offers disruption because you do not know what you will encounter from the Q. As a Fort Redwood I dont have tons of new ideas but I do challenge those in attendance to get better as I am confident that this momentum will carry you through the day as it has for me over the years.

WARMUP:
Mosey to Persis parking lot and circle up
Windmills x 10
SSH x 20
Mtn x 20
MNC x 10
IW x 10
Lets go!
THE THANG:
Mosey to Lowes with (3) stations. At each station, we completed max number of reps for each exercise within a minute. Pax were instructed to use sidewalk chalk to note their number

Station 1
Burpees
Flutters
WAM

Station 2
Lunges
Hammers
Diamond merkins

Station 3
CDD
Big Boy

Rinse and repeat but with a caveat to do 1 more rep of each exercise with a partner

MARY:
Twister on Gas Pumpers
Boogie Nights on LBCs
Barry Manilow on Dying Cockroaches
Assassin on Peter Pointers
