Almost an “SWF”

Leave a comment

It’s “Varsity” so I took the approach that we’d essentially cut right to the chase. Out of my own need, we needed a little bit of a warmup. So…
WARMUP: Run a bit then circle up:
The typical hits: Windmills, SSH, Squats, Merkins

THE THANG: Grab a cinder block and post up at a pull-up bar as our home base. We had 4 points of interest we’d travel to after completing 5 Dead-Hang Pull-Ups (DHPU) each time, more details below. Some PAX were more “dead” than others on their pull-ups…IF you know what I mean. Here was the order of events:

1. (5) DHPU, hoist the cindy overhead and walk down the hill, make a left into the parking lot for (10) Man Makers, (10) Thrusters, (10) Leg Lifts. Travel back to the bar with cindy overhead.
2. (5) DHPU, leave the cindy and run down the hill make a right and stop at the start of the circle. Bear crawl the circle then (10) each leg Spiderman Merkins, (10) 4ct Mountain Climbers, (10) each leg Peter Parkers. Run back to the bar.
3. (5) DHPU, leave the cindy and run to the stop sign at A.O. Jones Road. (10) Diamond Merkins, (10) Regular Merkins, (10) Mike Tysons. Run back to the bar.
4. (5) DHPU, leave the cindy and run to the entrance of the band practice lot. Modified Jack Webb to include 1 Burpee:4 Carolina Dry Docks. We went up to 5:20. Run back to the bar.

That concluded the 4-corner portion but we still had a little left in the tank and a little time on the clock.

With Cindy’s
(15) Curls
(15) Overhead Press
(10) Simbas (Thanks Rafiki)
(10) Toe Touches

Drop the cindy’s back at their rightful home and mosey to COT for a little bit of Mary.

MARY: Included above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: All about the Fast 5 for Luke tomorrow.
COT: 5th CORE PRINCIPLE

Graveyard shift

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Pledge if you pledge. Ruckers did their thing
THE THANG: Head to Hardees, which is fenced off, so we kept running to Elliot and up to the cemetery. Right on Unity to start our loop.
20 squats at the West entrance to Unity church
20 merkins at Steele St
20 LBCs on E Hill
20 Grave Diggers on Unity

Three laps were completed. Then 20 squats at Unity church. Then run up and down the steps at First Baptist for 20 merkins. Down to Academy and up to do LBCs at the Axe place. Then back to COT

Everyone got ~3.7miles
MARY: 90 seconds of Mary
COT: Circle of Trust initiated. What’s on men’s hearts? Get the internal external. F3 is for all men. ALL of them. Not just those of our preferred flavor of a religion. F3 helps everyone. If somehow it saves a soul from the perspective of any particular PAX, great. We’re here to make leaders of all men, let’s keep on keeping on.
