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.

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.

Catch Me If You Can plus some

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
SSH, Imperial Walkers, Cherry Pickers, Merkins, Hillbilly Walkers
All in cadence for a 10 count

THE THANG:
Part 1
Revamped Catch Me If You Can

Partner up, one person walks with sandbag, the other runs ahead around the loop and catch back up to partner.
Both do 5 squats with the person carrying the sandbag still holding the sandbag.
Swap positions and repeat until the sandbag has covered 3 laps.

Repeat with pushups as the exercise.

The loop was initially the larger parking lot loop, but modified to the smaller one.

Part 2
Still partnering up

50 over head pressed with the sandbag as a team.
One person presses while the other does 3 burpees, then swap until reps are done.

Repeat but changing exercise to squats, then rows still keeping burpees as the counter.

MARY: last 3 min
