COT & ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Notably we held CSPAN style discussion around the circle on what are we struggling with. It’s important to note that as we went around with each Pax’s voicing their struggles we all related to every one of those aspects. Guys we are not alone and it’s much easier to go this journey through life is undoubtedly more manageable when we stand together rather than facing it in isolation.” I implore you to be more vulnerable in COT. Prayers and Praises.

Failure Is Inevitable

Leave a comment

Arrived 30 min early set up and awaited Grinder to arrive with the rest of the sandbags.

WARMUP: Imperial Walkers, Wind mills

THE THANG: I was very ambitious as I was not sure how many people would show up and how long it would take to get through each station. Partner up, Partner 1 Does exercise till failure while Partner 2 does the second exercise. Then once failure occurs Partner 1 hops down off the stage and runs to the corner of 160 & Ardrey St preform 2 burpees and runs back to relive Partner 2 so they can start the exercise till failure. One both have completed that station move to the left to the next station. After 45 min we Omahaed it took sandbags to the hill where I proceeded to connect 2 groups of sandbags to a rope. The task was to work in two groups to get the 200 plus pound sandbags up to the top of the hill. This was to simulate carrying dead weight such as a person if injured in a crisis.
