Texted Barkley last week and told him to put me in for Q sometime at Coliseum. He responded and said I need someone for next week. I gladly accepted before looking at that weeks weather forecast. Rookie mistake but we ain’t no sissies.
On drive in truck thermometer said 15 degrees. Perfect workout weather. Even had to go purchase a pair of leggings from Spank.
Warmup:
15 Hill Billy Walkers
15 Imperial Walkers
15 Windmills
20 Moroccan Nightclubs
Workout:
Moseyed to bottom of hill coming into school and exercises where layed out. 5 hand release merkins at bottom then run to top of hill towards school and do 5 Scorpion Dry Docks. Run back to bottom and a different exercise going the other direction which was 5 Monkey Humpers. Mosey to entrance of Tega Cay Coffee up hill and do 5 Big Boy Sit Ups. Repeat this sequence and every time you pass in the bottom the reps go up 5. We made it to 20 before I called it for some mobility and stretching.
Moseyed back towards COT and had pax get on 6 and we did some hip mobility work and some stretching for the last 10 minutes.
Thanks for the Q Barkley. Hope I Did Well.
Love, Stang

Rainy day

Leave a comment

7 men showed up for a rainy day. YHC was not feeling it, but I had route planned and was on Q so I showed up. YHC decided to ruck with Crabcakes and Assasin while 3 others may or may not have taken the route I suggested.

Motto for the day:
Showing up is half the battle

Struggles of the dancing idiot

Leave a comment

WARMUP: the central question was posed- if we are excited and enthusiastic about trying to make a vision come into reality. (to better serve a group that we identify with and hope to serve), how do we manage our enthusiasm and have realistic expectations for those involved.
THE THANG:
Along with several references to Q-source, the main ideas that emerged included: making sure to filter out unnecessary aspects of the vision(s) (to better concentrate, and focus energies on what is most important), to regularly and deliberately engage in reflective practices (to better learn from mistakes, and help chart future courses),
And above all, have faith that progress will happen in God‘s time, and not necessarily our own.

COT: yup :+1:
