KB BOP for Farmers

Leave a comment

Site Q let me know there would be a shovel flag handoff this morning so expected a large crowd. Means different paces needed to be accommodated, perfect for a BOP. Arrived early to set-up and get a prerun in, because I'm old and need the warmup, plus it's been a long week. Jogging around the parking lot next to the school I was able to watch the cars start to roll in. This energized me which is what I needed. I love F3 workouts for the fellowship; the fitness is a bonus. Time to work.

WARMUP: Moseyed/walked with bells from COT to the large parking lot by the school. Only 2 exercises called: SSH & Burpees. Did these a few times and we were ready to work.

THE THANG: BOP was on display at a light pole, explained the BOP and then had the PAX count off in groups of 4. With 4 groups created I let the PAX know that each group would farmer carry coupons, which were also located at the same light pole, to the other end of the lot and back. Group 1 would carry and upon return would alert Group 2 that it was their turn, so forth and so on. Rotated the farmers carry throughout the workout. Most groups had the pleasure of 4 carries, my group -#4 only had 3 carries. Most PAX made it into the 20rep block of the BOP and a couple of HIMs completed the BOP. Fun was had by all. BOP and coupons for farmer carry listed below:

2 – 45lb plates

All exercises incorporated getting from one end of the lot to the other across 9 parking spaces.
First up
Alligator walk across the lot and back
25 monkey humpers on either end
Kangaroo hops (broad jumps )
Bunny hop
Take a mosey lap
Next
Animal related stretching
Down dog
Scorpion (down dog with leg up and over)
Flying squirrel
Arm circles (Eagle wings)
Row boats (to save yourself)
Last up
Crab walk
Duck walk
Gorilla shuffle (sideways)
Penguin walk

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: https://www.kcrg.com/2026/09/08/iowa-band-member-collapsed-heat-hawkeyes-football-game-taken-off-life-support/

  • healthy perseverance: Leaders are hardwired to push through discomfort, mask their pain, and show up for their people no matter the physical cost.
  • Where in your life are you pretending to the world that you are completely fine?
  • Vertical Accountability: relationship between you and the standard you hold yourself to.
  • Why is it so difficult for high-performing men to raise their hands and say, "I am hitting my limit, I need to sit this out"?
  • Horizontal Accountability: relationship with peers.
  • Are we actively looking at the faces of those around us, and able to see when someone is silently red-lining or are we too focused on our own performance?
