The 3 costs of leadership

WARMUP: Mosey to springs building lot for various exercises with 2 burpees in between each. Mosey to the pike energy lot for act 1

THE THANG: Cost #1 – You will have to make hard decisions that negatively affect people you care about.
Partner up for Dora
100 – Boxcutters
200 – Squats
300’- Flutters

Mosey to Act 2 at Subway
Cost #2 – You will be disliked despite your attempts to do the best for the most
Dora – Same partner, new count
50 – Burpees
100 – Merkins
150 – Squats

Mosey to bank lot for a plank and act 3:
Cost #3 – You will be misunderstood and will not always have the opportunity to defend yourself.
Mosey to the WEP running path – with 12 minutes to go YHC called 5 burpees, 10 squats and 15 SSH’s at each swing. It was a bit aggressive. Modified to 5 hand release merkins from the 4th swing on.

JWOW found his landholdings at WEP to be in good working order, so we proceeded and
all finished in time for COT at 0730.

YHC is also pleased to report that the perceived minimum burpee requirement of Slapahot’s was also reached – all of them.

MARY: No time – had work to finish
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Go pick up trash afterward. So many PAX did.
COT: 5th core principle

Thanks to Grinder for the call. Always a privilege to lead where it all started.

Hot Enough Yet?

We have an FNG!! We went through the 5 core principles of F3, stated its mission, and did a full lengthy disclaimer so the FNG knew the full monty, money back guarantee.

8 bootcampers and 4 shield lockers doing their own thing (Olaf, Sasquatch, Beaker, and one other I could not see/hear).

WARMUP: Mosey around the parking lot for about a half mile or so, circle up near the school for 10-20 of the following:
* SSH
* Windmills
* Imperial walkers
* Moroccan night clubs
* Strawberry pickers
>> Then over to the road by the JROTC building for the main event.

THE THANG:
1. First up, 11s w hill repeats
Utilizing the mild grade hill alongside the JROTC building that leads down to the elementary school, we did some 11s. 10 Merkins at the top, 1 box cutter at the bottom, repeat accordingly until we finish with 1 merkin at the top, 10 box cutters at the bottom. Overall about a mile and a half of running and 55 reps of each exercise.

Then we discussed shield locks and how important they are. We men tend to internalize our struggles, keep them to ourselves. That only amplifies the pain. Find someone you can trust – the key word in making it work – and that you can be open and vulnerable with. Whether it is inside the F3 ranks our outside F3, just lock up with a someone. No OYO!!!
Next up…..
2. Cindy relays
Divide into 2 groups. Luckily we had an even number of 8. Using the new cinder blocks…..still with that new cinder block smell!…..blocks were placed about 20-30yds from the start. One person from each team runs to the blocks, does the exercise with the blocks, then runs back to the group. Group is exercising as well while they wait for their go. Next person up runs, and so forth, relay style. Constant movement, no rest.
Round 1: 15 cindy curls (1 block) while group does SSH
Round 2: 15 cindy overhead press (1 block) while group does flutters
Round 3: 15 cindy squats (2 blocks) while group does lunges
Round 4: 10 cindy manmakers (1 block) while group does IWs. >> We ran out of time and did not get round 4 in.
>> Back to COT

COT:
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
* Read your newsletter and get involved!!
P&P:
* BE SURE TO DRINK ELECTROLYTES, NOT JUST WATER!!
* Marriages, being a father, and your relationship/responsibilities to both your M and 2.0s.
* Sorry if I missed anything else. Several things were lifted up.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead! SYITG and God Bless!
