Lots of Lightposts

Leave a comment

Five men showed up on a crisp morning right before sunrise. We moseyed out to the main road stopping at each light pole for an exercise. The rep count was low so we focused on good form. We headed back to the school performing exercises at each lightpole back to the main lot.
With five minutes remaining, we repeated multiple rounds of dips, Mike Tyson’s, and wall taps.
Great job guys!

I recently watched the below video about taking action for those relying on you. In it, Chadd Wright describes his role as a breacher in the Seal Team. He would plan the breaching of an obstacle so his team could accomplish their mission. He describes three words that took planning into action: execute, execute, execute.

That’s what people fail to do. If you don’t execute on your plan, especially when you’re tired or scared or stressed, you’re not just cheating yourself, you’re cheating those they rely on you – your family, co-workers, or team.

So ask yourself, what is one decision I’ve been avoiding making that I should instead boldly execute today? When I say, “I’ll wait until conditions are perfect,” am I actually just waiting to avoid discomfort? How clear is my “why” for the work I’m doing — and does it anchor me when things get hard?

Execute today, gentlemen!

It’s about community

Leave a comment

WARMUP: The heartstrings got loosened up out of the gates as Warning Track unloaded some baggage from a tough week, acknowledging the challenges of Living Right through the Flux of life and the importance of showing up this morning to be lifted up by his brothers. He followed up with the Obligatory SSHs and then set off from WEP.

THE THANG:

WT took the pax to the old Pike Elec parking lot stopping for some windmills, burpees and other fun enroute.

Pax broke into groups of 3 for a modified Dora across the parking lot. Midway through WT called audible due to pax incompetence and simplified to Dora in groups of 2. Terrible things like Merkins, squats, lunges, flutters, burpees, etc were unleashed on the pax

WT took pax to Memorial Park for more burpees and more shared pax stories of Why they come out to the Gloom on a wet Sat morning.

DD took the reins and moved the pax to a series of parking lots (pharmacy), Pike front courtyard, Town Hall back wall for pain stops including shoulder taps, wall sits, plank jacks, burpees, mtn climbers, peter parkers, Parker peters, etc.

Pax returned to WEP to appreciate JWOW’s lovely Christmas tree. Two rounds of partner work included bear crawls around tree + flutters followed by crawl bears around tree + HR merkins.

Mosey to grass in front of band shell for more partner work (merkins, shoulder taps, sit ups) interspersed with some burpees and lap around band shell. Finished off with Knee Tar N’dyae and Mahktar N’dyae.

Mosey home

MARY: included throughout

ANNOUNCEMENTS: coffeteria at HC

COT: great morning where we welcomed 3 FNGs + a Kotter while pax from 30s to 50s mixed it up and pushed each other to get 1% better.

“Our youth are our present” I heard my pastor say from the pulpit recently. Note he did NOT say “our future.” It’s as true in The Fort and in our community as it is in NYC with a 34 yr old mayor. Younger pax, you ARE leaders today — embrace your opportunity and duty. Seasoned pax — your leadership focus IS about bringing along the next generation of leaders — embrace your opportunity and duty.
We are blessed men to have these roles at this time.

Thanks to JWOW for the opportunity and Warning Track for the partnership.

Love you brothers!
