School Tour

Commentary courtesy of Dark Helmet:

12 men at The Pit Of Cocks received a generous helping of Italian Jobs.

The Thang:

  • Run 1/4 mile-ish then perform the following
  • 10 Burpees
  • 20 HR Merkins
  • 30 Lunges
  • 40 Mountain Climbers
  • 10 Burpees

Repeat until the hate leaves your heart or until 45 minutes has elapsed…

Moleskine:
The morning began with Liberty rescuing Goose’s hemorrhoid pillow from the parking lot (not sure when that got left there) and placing it lovingly by the flag. Also placed by the flag, was a fat deuce squeezed out like Satan’s toothpaste by 3D’s nutsniffer. Not to worry, like most good dog owners, 3D brought his little doo-doo produce bags and collected the offering to carry with him. I don’t have a dog, and one of the main reasons is that I currently live in a situation that would require me to bend down and collect the feces of a lesser beast. I'm on the top of the food chain. I will not collect feces. Besides, the mighty (though domesticated) canine deserves to leave his castoffs where they lay, so for me to take responsibility to care for such an animal would require me to live beyond the officious reach of an HOA and past the confines of a fence…

Changing subjects, Deep Dish remarked about the amount of sand in the CRHS parking lot and was contemplating how to take his kids there and convince them that it was Myrtle Beach, but with less cigarette butts.

COT: Pray for many men’s relatives, to shoulder our burdens, and to be smart enough not to go alone.

Start with Station #3

Last time I Q'd the Kitchen Sink we only used 1pc of gear. Needed to up my game for this Q to live up to the name Kitchen Sink, gotta bring more gear, so we used 3pcs. this go around – Ruck, SB, & KB.

WARMUP: Started with a mosey around the COT parking lot loop mixed in with the usual suspects, stopped and formed a circle back at COT for more of the usual warm-up movements. Time to work.

THE THANG:
3 stations were set-up around the COT parking lot loop. Instructed PAX they would need to carry all gear to each station. Upon arriving at a station, you can unload. Each station consisted of a buy in/out exercise and various other exercises with 1pc of gear. After completing the buy-in, list of exercises, and the buy-out, load up all gear and move to the next station. Continue until time is called. Stations are described below:

Station 1 — Exercises w/Ruck
· Buy In/Out – ManMakers x 10

  • Ruck thrusters x12
  • Ruck On squat jumps x12
  • Ruck On Alt Backward Lunge x 12 ( 6 ea leg )

Station 2 — Exercises w/Kettlebell
· Buy In/Out – Merkins w/ KB pull through x 10

  • KB swings x20
  • KB Alt Snatches x20 (10 ea side)
  • KB U-Hauls x20

Station 3 — Exercises w/Sandbag
· Buy In/Out – SB Overhead Press Toss x 10

  • Sandbag bear-hug squats x12
  • Sandbag ShouldertoShoulder OH Press x12
  • Sandbag DeadLift to Cleans x12

Everyone made it through 2 rounds on this muggy morning. FishStix said we covered a little over a mile and then suggested we should add one more piece of gear. Will take this suggestion into strong consideration for next time! We started with station #3 because YHC did not pay attention when setting up the stations prior to the workout. Found out it's not about where you start, it's how we finish that is important.

MARY: No time

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your NL! Stuff the Bus this Saturday, Bethel this Thursday, etc…

COT: STK!
