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!

Awkward Weight At The SInk

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Jog around the parking lot followed by a few exercises.
THE THANG:
1min of each of the following:
Ground to overhead
Over the shoulder toss

SLOW asymmetrical farmers carry. With sand bag in one hand, we’ll walk slowly, together, around the parking lot loop switching hands as needed.

Partner up for a round of “catch me if you can” around the large drop-off loop:
Partner 1: Take both sand bags and walk/shuffle until Partner 2 catches you.
Partner 2: 3 burpees then catch Partner 1
Alternate until you complete the loop.

Perfect Merkins (slick): I followed the correction of the PAX and completed this in an 8ct cadence. We did 20…lovely.

3-Tier Suicides: Roughly 40yds and back, 60yds and back then 75yds and back. Every time you return, complete 10 Bent Over Rows

2-Tier Suicides: Like above, this time only 60yds and 75yds. Complete (10) 4ct Flutters upon your return each time.

Sand Bag carry (standard carry position) around the large loop with stops at the corners for:
1st Corner: 10 Dead Lifts
2nd Corner: 10 Hammer Curl into Overhead Press
3rd Corner: 15 Squats
4th Corner: Chest Press

Kitchen Sink Beatdown-last week

WARMUP: Stretching and slow warmup
THE THANG: It was a simple Dora venue with 1 pax running the loop with sandbag while your partner did the exercise. , , , , , and started with some stretching and warm up followed by far too many merkins, bbs, curls, flutter press, overhead press, squats and LBCs. Didn’t know we could count so high.
MARY: Cool down was LBCs, Freddy Mercury’s and some pax led Mary’s. Thank you to all the guys who showed up and encouraged me.

Dont Try This Alone

Leave a comment

Decent weather brought out 6 Pax for an 0630 start. 2 more came in at 0632 after picking deer carcus out of Senator Tressel’s grill…but that’s another story.

WARMUP: Mosey around the park towards our destination, with some stops and work along the way. Destination was the vert ramp on the backside of the ball park. Two steep inclines opposite of each other was where we would spend the next 55ish minutes.
THE THANG: Partner up. Start at bottom of hills and each partner runs opposite way to top and back where you meet for exercises. Rules of engagement were you must run and rep together. Meaning if you run back to the bottom and your partner isn’t there yet you keep running to bring him in. When one partner had all the reps they could take (or you were done with the exercise) then you take off running. No rest/cheerleading here. Exercises were as follows:
– 50 Burpees
– 100 Donkey Kicks
– 150 Squats
– 200 LBC
– 250 Shoulder Press

Pax got done quicker than expected so we got some extra credit in the form of NURing up each hill twice and going through the exercises again, albeit smaller rep count. Same rules applied – we nur and we do the reps together.
MARY: BROGA
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Important stuff
COT: Priceless

NMM: Was great to be out leading this morning after a week or so of laziness and not posting. Pax were encouraged to lean into the 2ndF of this great thing called F3. Rather that be shieldlock, whetstone, coffeteria, taco Tuesday or any other form formal or informal. As men we tend to be loaners or surface level with other men. You are missing a HUGE benefit of F3 if you’re not accelerating 2ndF.

Was truly an honor. Divac out.
