COT: Prayers for young kids, teachers/students, college kids returning home, new job, grieving families, progress on health journey, pending surgery, offer on home for sale, growth from hard choices (those made and those under discernment)

Throughout the workout, pax reflected on hard choices related to living life fully out of a commitment to be our best self for our family. Pax shared about struggles and choices related to healthy eating, exercise, alcohol, porn, tobacco, foul language and more. Thanks to everyone for pushing through the stiff humidity and sharing openly. Inspiration came from the prompt below that crossed my radar in the past two weeks:

You say "I would die for my family"

OK, but …

Would you exercise for them? would you eat healthy for them? would you chase your dreams for them? would you quite your bad habits for them?

You don't need to die for them

You need to live for them

Thanks @U08N41FCN0Z for the Q invite! #KeepPosting

15 showed up for #C02PN2RAS4A for a not moderate (thanks to @UMRNJ46AW for the motivation) as there were a handful of #C0ACZR27LN9 participants this morning.

  • @U09JCNEQB5K is living in the current shadow of his father's endex play by play which can only be described as “that's gold Jerry, gold”
  • @U05927TN6V9 has began recruiting new neighbors from Beaufort @chubbs (need to work on the slack entry here Ryan!)
  • @U094RAE1TB6 @U5CESTA4R @U094RAE1TB6 is trying to find new ways to injure himself as this past weekend did not allow for enough opportunities
  • @U012K8DDK7V now takes his shirt off because his traps need to breathe and are heavily chiseled
  • @U5QGBN4V9 looked fresh as a daisy but still sweat like he was watering a field of daisies
  • @UN6PTD007 is picturing himself doing Rocky stair climbs but probably with a sandbag or 3 because he always needs something difficult
  • @U5P2KHLJ2 thought that support staff also carried weight but no one told him this until the endex. #beast
  • @U5MQ8FHV0 is celebrating his 19 year wedding anniversary today!! That is a fact.
  • @U01JUGK82TY was also the Clemson mascot for his time in 🐅 town. Also a fact.
  • @UMRNJ46AW is not one of those fence climbing fools and YHC got a look. @UMDE5QUET shared a similar look. YHC looked away and then ran away.
  • @U790WHUKC is like a squirrel when it comes to climbing fences…so no look was needed. Thx bass.
  • @U03DS2K4BL3 now has a graduate at home (with a J O B!!) and will be dragging his butt to workouts in the near future. We need some young blood!

Murph this Monday with invergence to follow. Please don't say “I can't” or that's too difficult. Modification is a word and an action you can take. Not trying is just giving up on you. Don't be that guy because that's not what you're being trained for.

💰 Sandbag Extravaganza 💰

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Moroccan night clubs, arm circles, low slow squat, downward dog, hip openers
THE THANG: we had 40’s, 60’s and on 80#… shoulder the sandbags and go for a walk around the soccer field, stop halfway, circle up and go around the circle for over the shoulder toss until you go back to your bag, rinse and repeat… shoulder sandbags again and complete the loop around the soccer field to the main entrance. Around the clock over the shoulder toss x 2.
Go inside the field, partner up for bear crawl sandbag drag to other end, 2 pax per 1 bag, pick your poison style, reach the other side and toss the sandbag forward.
Line up facing the goal at arms length, we chose 4 sandbags for this, go on a plank and side pull to pax on left, once out of bags run to the end of the line “Indian run style” all the way to the other side of the field, go back to start point but now pull to the right, trying to work both arms and lats; rinse and repeat. Everyone was smocked by the end of this one.
Shoulder sandbags and take a lap around the drop off line.
MARY: 3 minutes of broga

Rucking to find the million dollar bridge

Leave a comment

WARMUP: put rucks on, grab one sandbag to share while exploring a route to the spring trails trying to find the million dollar bridge
THE THANG: leave NAFO parking lot, go up the the traffic light and cross the street to hit the service road in front of the small strawberry field, the idea was to get into archer loop and go towards the barn but couldn’t find a clear path, walked next to road until we got to adventure rd.
Left on mill pond, all the way down to the new “half a million bridge” crossed the bridge and took a right on blue star until we hit the other “half a million bridge”, went across and went up the gravel service road all the way to the barn, left on parking lot and into archer loop, followed until we were close enough to the small strawberry field and went across the woods to hit a service rd, and then back to NAFO. This is what I wanted to do to begin whit at the beginning to avoid walking almost a mile next to Springfield pkwy.
Not happy with 4.5 miles, pax suggested to keep going and looped around the elementary school and back to COT.

MARY: take rucks off
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Manion, Bethel
COT: stays in COT

No route suggested.

Leave a comment

I didn’t even bother suggesting a route. Half the guys were going on trails to ruck train, the other half already knew where they wanted to go. And Vuvu and Stagecoach plotted their own deal together. Hey, I’m not bitter.
