Exfoliation Free Lot

Leave a comment

Quick disclaimer and warmup and we were off.
We took two steps forward and one step back, because opposites attract, or something like that.
Bear Crawl two parking spots and do a Merkin, then Crawl Bear one back. We did a few sets of this including lunges and broad jumps.
Next up was a Dora – 100 push-ups, 200 Squats, 300 LBCs. Mode of transportation was a lap around the parking lot.
Back to COT for prayers and praises.

Dance Naked Reboot

Leave a comment

Eight boot campers met at Pleasant Knoll Middle for a great start to Tuesday morning. Here is what they did:

THE THANG:
Mosey out of the COT and circle up at the cement pad by the teacher’s smoking lounge for COP: All in cadence:
SSX x 20, merkin x 10, windmill x 10, cherry picker x 10, little/big arm circles x 20ea and both directions, IW x 15, mountain climber x 15 hold/6″ hold/honeymooner/downward dog/6″/L/R arm/leg high/6″ hold, Freddie Merc x 15

Mosey to the parking lot and line up facing the cement island.

1. Bearcrawl to the island, 10 merkins, return to the start
2. Lungewalk to the island, 10 squats, return.
3. Powerskip to the island, 10 bombjacks, return.
4. Inchworm to the island, 10 merkins
5. Pick partner (someone you don’t know well), walk to the island and get to know them better. At the island, do 10 partner merkins (hand slap), walk back to the start.

Mosey to the walking bridge for Jacob’s ladder. Run to the end of the bridge and do 1-5 burpees, run back. (5 reps total)

Walk to the school building for 2 rounds of People’s Chair (60 sec hold). The pax were encouraged to sit at a 90 degree angle.

MARY: Flutter x 10, Box cutter x 10, Pretzel crunch x 10, Superman x 3

NAKED MAN MOLESKIN:
Good mumble chatter today by the Pax. Twister started it during the opening SSH’s when he noticed a small fenced-in area with a chair placed in it. What purpose did it serve? (time out chair?, teacher’s smoking lounge?)
Today’s workout was one I pulled from the archives (08/01/2019) and executed almost identically. Noteworthy of that workout was when I asked the pax to take a few minutes and get to know someone new in the group. I took that cue from C-Span who did something similar years before at WEP. It’s a neat way to make a connection with the guys you see in the gloom, but may not know very well.

COT: Barry Manilow joined us at COT following his 6 mile run.
Good to have you with us, brother! We prayed for ST’s mom and longtime friend John with terminal cancer. Prayers also for Dixie’s 5 yr old niece whose body started rejecting a donated kidney

Backwards accumulator with a touch of Apache

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Wegs said peace out and ran away.  The rest of us stuck around.  Warmup stayed local at COT: SSH, cherry picker, low slow squat, merkins, windmill
THE THANG: We ran away from COT towards the bus loop and stopped at the corner for our first exercise…of the backwards accumulator.  Started out with 10 bomb jacks followed by Apache 10 count from Mainframe.  Next took off through the entrance and up to the front of the school for some Al gores while we waited and then did 20 diamond merkins along with the 10 bombs.  Here is where Senator gave us an old school Apache 10 count where we learned about this redwood’s history.  Next was back down to the corner where we stopped for 30…30 hammers, then the 20, then the 10.  Undertaker picked up the 6 before we got started, because that’s what we do.  Got us an Apache 10 from undertaker at this stop. We then ran to another entrance of the school for 40 squats, then 30 down to 10.  To the back of the school we packed in 50 flutters down to the 10.  Then we stayed there for 60 calve raises down to the 10.  Then we ran back to COT.  On the way, there may have been some merlot deposits but I think that’s what happens sometimes when you work extra hard and push…so good on you pax.
MARY: had a little time for some Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter goodies
COT: Wegs came back and left us without a wave.  So prayers for him, lol.

8.14.23 at The Badger

Leave a comment

In the gloomy morning of August 14, 2023, 10 PAX descended upon the Honey Badger to put in work.

Started off with a timed 2-mile run. Finished that up, did some Mary in waiting for the six.

Headed over to the pull up bars for the main event.

Bradley

On January 3, 2010, while on a dismounted area reconnaissance patrol in the vicinity of Badvan village, his 13-man platoon-sized element was attacked by indirect mortar fire and an improvised explosive device. The initial attack threw an Airman and a Soldier into an adjacent creek, critically wounding the Airman and mortally wounding the Soldier. A second Soldier was mortally wounded and thrown 200 meters across the village by the blast. Airman Smith, without regard to his own safety, immediately rushed from his covered position, and into the waist-high water of the creek to save his fellow Airman and recover the killed Soldier. After moving the victims of the improvised explosive device attack to the Casualty Collection Point, Airman Smith volunteered to retrieve the soldier thrown across the village. Determined to never leave a comrade behind, Airman Smith proceeded at extreme risk, and without regard to his personal safety, along the eastern edge of the village to the Soldier’s remains. Airman Smith retrieved the fallen Soldier and began maneuvering back through the village toward the extraction site. Airman Smith waded back through the waist-high creek and proceeded toward the Casualty Collection Point. Upon arrival, a second Improvised Explosive Device detonated, killing Airman Smith and the platoon medic instantly.

10 Rounds For TIme
100 meter Sprint
10 Pull-Ups
100 meter Sprint
10 Burpees
30 seconds Rest

Work was put in by all. Saw Dust – thanks for allowing YHC to lead.

It was an honor to be able to lead the workout this morning. This was diffident from most workouts because of the number of times we stopped to talk. However I felt it important to share with the guys what is happening around them. We also were able to congratulate Double D in his hand off of Nantan to Esso. Double D, thank you for you service to the pax. You have always been someone who ask the tough questions that challenge us and I thank you for that and what you did for our Region during your reign as Nantan. Esso, I look forward where you are going to take us and your energy to lead. We have a bright future ahead.
