D-day at the Coaches Box

Leave a comment

Today’s workout was about perspective. History provides the best perspective and on 6/6 we were reflecting on D-Day.

Started with a mosey towards the entrance of the high-school.

Stopped and did

20 SSH IC
10 Windmills IC

Mosey to the bottom of the hill right at the entrance.

To celebrate, honor, and remember the 80th anniversary of D-Day we executed the following:

80 seconds work
2:40 minutes recovery

80 HR Merkins
80 Squats
80 4ct Flutters
80Diamond Merkins
80 Calf Raises
80 LBCs

So the idea was all Pax do as many reps as possible in the 80 seconds then the “recovery” run was back to the top of the hill where we each did 6 burpees and then get back to the bottom. Any excess time left of the 2:40 is your “rest”.

The Pax loved this and looking at time we got through 7 rounds of this before breaking back towards COT.

On the way we stopped by the band lot and did a 80 yard bear crawl followed by 44 SSH to close us out.

One last note on perspective…. It’s easy for us to get caught up in the day to day but take a step back, reflect on how we all got here and the opportunities each day brings because of the sacrifices of others.

Thanks to Warning Track for the opportunity!

:punch: :punch: :pray:

Winter Green Skoal and Cindy

Leave a comment

It was a balmy morning at The Ring, but the mumble chatter was fire. A little warmup and we were off to grab our old friend Mr. Cinder Block.

We celebrated the 80th anniversary of the day before D-Day.

Thang: 4 Corners of pain. Every lap move you cinderblock up one cone. The 4 Corners were:
– Bombjacks
– Dry Docs
– Flutters
– Merkins
Mode of transport was running.

Nice work by all!

Jason Richards “Falcon”

Leave a comment

13 PAX + Falcon = 14. The same number of PAX that showed up in the gloom on 4/29/2024 when Falcon collapsed after his first workout. We are here to honor this man

WARMUP:
9 motivators – a crowd favorite
Low slow squats with coupon
Low slow merkins

THE THANG:
“Falcon Heavy”
14 SSH in cadence buy-in
———————————-
4 rounds of 26 each with coupons. Only progress to the next movement once everyone except Cohiba is done
Flutters with press (the hard way)
American Hammers (the hard way)
Lunges (the easy way)
Curls
Overhead press
No rest Thrusters – if the coupon drops below your chest, 5 manmaker penalty for everyone. This was abused
Shuffle a lap with the coupon
———————————-
14 SSH in cadence (called correctly)

We made 3 full rounds. Some would say we could have finished if we didn’t mess around with motivators during warmup. Scientists are now referring to these claims as “wrong”.

MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: loads of stuff this summer
COT: Lifting up Falcon’s family
