Prison Break

Leave a comment

Lap around the parking lot, back to the parking spaces behind COT. Each Pax stayed inside there parking space and performed a series of exercises. Once completed, we ran a lap and began another set of exercises. The exercises were the following: SSHs, curb hops, Mike Tyson’s, bear crawl, crawl bear. Grave diggers, and CDDs.
We had some time left over at the end to do some stone exercises 1 minute of each: curls, overhead press, and squat thrusters.
Back to COT.

Impossible Island Hopping

Leave a comment

WARMUP: moseyed with some stops along the way. No feedback on the cadence calling. The PIP I was on was in full effect. Finished with Bonnie Blairs X 10.
THE THANG: In honor of The Pirate, a 4 corners, 20 reps at each corner. Merkins, Derkins, Heels to Heaven, and Big Boys.

Mosey and Sprints 2X to length of the parking lot changing pace at every island. Another idea taken from Pirate.

Picked two islands to do an Impossible Mile:
First Lap: Burpee Broad Jumps
Second Lap: Lunge Walk
Third Lap: Bear Crawl
Fourth Lap: Mosey.

Everyone LOVED the Impossible Mile.

Truly an honor to GET TO share doing difficult things with these men.

MARY: some did, some not so much.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Stuff the Bus, LaGrama, Bethel, Bourbon, Cannoli Run!
COT: Lifting up all those going through life’s beatdowns and enjoying the time when the storms pass.

Q Source – Trust Q3.3

Leave a comment

I'm going from memory so forgive me if I missed a PAX or three.
We talked about trust as the latest QSource topic. We discussed if you're trustworthy, how you develop trust and what happens to a team when trust does/doesn't exist.

COT: Shared some tough stuff – burdens shared are burdens lighter. No OYO.

NMM – When we look in the mirror at the end of each day – can we say we gave our best? PAX were asked to bring two things to the workout today – their rucks and their best. Life requires the same from us. Let’s give it men. The world needs you and your example more than ever.

Brawny – thanks for the call. 👁️
