10 Windmill IC

“ The Bradley”

100 meter sprint
10 Burpees OR (10 HR merkins for ppl preserving their knees)
100 meter sprint
10 Pull-ups

Wash rinse repeat 10 times.

I’m happy to say that we all finished with plenty of time to spare. A lot of great chatter, and great support for everyone along the way.

Got to COT and did 2 sets of 4 rounds of various ab exercises to finish right at 0600.

Always honored and privileged to lead at this AO. The stories and workouts here in remembrance of those who served are great reminders of what has been sacrificed for us and give us the perspective to tackle whatever life throws at us.

Take care and SYITG!

Are we really doing this today?

Leave a comment

Rainy morning began with a text from the Funhouse, “Are we really doing this today?” Yep, always outside. Six men showed up, not afraid of the pouring rain. Not speed records were broken, safety was top priority.
First stop, the pharmacy for some warm up exercises. Next we made our way to the somewhat covered WEP. We started with a starfish, three legs, exercises at each, back to amphitheatre.
Next, we did sort of a tempo run around the parking lot with one member of the group running to the top of the entrance for 5 burpees. We finished with a lap around the field stopping a each swing for merkins, squats, LBCs, and puddles.
Back to COT
Great job men!
