Don’t need a lot of ground to cover

Form matters and our space is limited. Let’s get to work.
WARMUP: A short jog with some butt-kickers & side shuffles.
THE THANG: Grab the (2) 60lb sand bags and introduce them to our kettle bells.
One PAX would farmer carry the two sand bags (leaving his bell behind) and travers roughly 40yds total while the other PAX completed an exercise. Everyone got 2rds on the bags while the following exercises were completed.
Thrusters, OH Press (L), OH Press (R), Simbas, Curls, OH Tricep Extensions, Flutters w/ Press, Bent Over Rows, Dead Lifts, Standing Lunge (Left leg in front), Standing Lunge (Right leg in front).
Ditch the bags and overhead carry the bells to the front of the stadium. Form 2 lines facing each other.
Focus on form and identify the man across from you. He was your competition and your accountability.
Perform real squats until one of you take a break then we do 5 Man Makers
Repeat this evolution but doing overhead presses then 5 thrusters when failure occurs.
Very interesting to realize when these are the parameters, you’re apt to work much harder. Nobody wants to quit on someone else.
Shuffle with your bell over to the circle and form 2 columns (formation) facing me. Very reminiscent of the way Santini used to line us up.
20 KB Swings then a 20 second hold with the KB out front.
20 Low Squat pulses (yes, you Redwoods remember these) then a 20 second low squat hold (keep your chest up)
20 Flutters w/ Press and a 20 second Canoe hold
Shuffle up the hill to the maintenance entrance, do some more work.
Down to the gate for more work. Back to COT for more work.

MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Newsletter
COT: Indeed. Stays in COT.

A dead end and a roundabout.

Solid effort by the PAX today. 4×4 Run & Ruck. The pace was steady but the mumblechatter was strong. Then there were planks. They were… plank-y. Moseyed around little bit of Massey then into sunset circle. It said dead end, but we found a way out. Kept on trucking down Athena, went around a fence that was not keeping anyone out. Then around FCMS with some unexpected hills. Ended up at the Waterside roundabout where we laid on the grass to kill our running pace did some planks and sounded professional by saying abs are important for running. Clarified that I am only semi-pro. Moseyed back just in time to stop the watch at AO.
LTrain: said running was easier last year
Band Camp: shared stories with Sock Monkey
Sock Monkey: Showed us what Colorado lungs can do. Also distracted Band Camp which led to a race and a photo finish to see who could make it back first. The youth prevailed.
YHC: Still learning directions as well as counting. We will get there.
The Ruckers were right where we left them when we got back.
WARMUP: SSH / Moroccan night clubs / Worlds greatest stretch
THE THANG: Ran 4.25 miles at the pace of a lost new seabiscuit Q. Found a couple hills and a lot of mud with some wet grass to wash off in.
MARY: M.I.A.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Hog and Coyote.

The ladder of all ladders

Mosey down to the far end of the parking lot by the baseball field.

Dynamic warmup

30 seconds on 10 seconds off
8 rounds
SSH
Windmill
Seal Jack
MNC
Imperial Walkers
HR merkins
Squats
Flutters

The thang

Ladder concept…run to a cone and do the reps assigned at the cones. Go back to the start do 5 squats and then go to the next cone etc…

Exercises were merkins and LBCs

Also had a burpee whistle blown at my discretion. 3 burpees each time.

So the cones were lined up at the distance from “home”

So .05 was cone 1…. .10 was cone 2 etc… all the way to cone .25.

We were able to wrap up with most getting to 2.5-3.0 miles and everyone got 150 LBCs and 150 Merkins. Thanks to Rosie for the opportunity!!!
