There’s a hill here?

Leave a comment

I was late. It’s a long story. Happy to tell you any other time

WARMUP: Olaf took the PAX that were on time to the FW parking lot for some stuff that YHC missed
THE THANG: Hustle down the hill and hit the very dark trails. YHCs light is in the other car so it was fun navigating the gloom. No matter. We got to the hill by the GHMS lot and up we went.
At the top bear crawl both ways across the street and 20 4 count flutters with press.
Down the hill and 20 4 count ruck curls and overhead presses. Repeat up and down with same reps.
Bottom of the hill we head back and stop at each bridge.
1. 10x LSS
2. 15x Overhead press
3. 10x Ruck Curl
4. 10x LSS
Then it was time to airport power-walk back to CoT. With the last 300 meters a ruck run to meet up with the STL crew

Introducing the Office

Leave a comment

WARMUP: disclaimer
THE THANG: took a tour around the outer perimeter of the Manliest AO in the Fort. We stopped at what is now referred to as “The Office” where each man did a weighted pullup while another man stabilized the pull up station by holding a dip. After each man did their rep @Flounder decided to show us all up with preforming 3 weighted pull ups at the ripe old age of 76. We made one last lap around the VA and made it to the base of the hill by cycle bar where we took turns calling squats while passing a baby sandbag around the circle. Introduced the hillbilly squat: a deep squat followed by two hillbilly walkers. Then sprint up the hill to COT.
MARY: we did a few flutters
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Journey groups will be forming soon. If interested contact me
COT: prayers for schools, parents dealing with teens, marriages, work stress, and patience with in-laws.
