C.A.L.M.

Leave a comment

Well, this workout was anything other than
C.A.L.M. for the first 20 minutes. Comments were flying all over the place for my early incoherent 5:15 a.m. speech and demonstrations patterns. Rough start. It never let up after @Fishstix chided me with my beautiful description of Moroccan Night Clubs.
WARMUP: So we warmed up with a few of those and two other exercises.
THE THANG:
3 sections:
1. 15 minute workout with a partner; timer is the one person in the larger group doing 12 manmakers with a 30 lb sandbag
Partner rotate exercises based on timer listed above:
Merkins/Squats
Dips/Reverse Lunges
One arm Shoulder Presses with KB/Squat high jumps
We rotated through about twice.

2. Ab practice time. I will admit there was a lot of chatter in the first 15 minutes, less in the next 6.5 minutes of abs and quite a bit more of groaning and complaining.
1 minutes each:
Figure 8’s
Parker Peters
X-man Crunch
Rest for 30 secs
Starfish Crunch
21 Crunch
Twisted T-planks

3. Broga: 25 minutes with a focus on shoulders

ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2D is tomorrow.
COT: Lots of praises but also some serious prayer requests. Thank you men for sharing!
Thank you for the opportunity @headspin and @bodywash!

Varsity Shovel Flag handoff

Leave a comment

YHC Gave the Disclaimer then got going with the warm up.
A little broga – sun salutations (basically bending at your waist and breathing), then some up/down dog, and some hip stretches.

Then did a short jog around part of the parking lot with high knees, butt kickers and shuffles.
Moseyed over to the football field and lined up on the goal line.  Did windmills IC and SSH.

Next we were onto the real work.  It was some speed work that involved :
Jog to 40 yard line , sprint 10, 40/10, in end zone do 25 merkins
Jog 30, sprint 20, 30/20; 25 merkins
Jog 20, sprint 30, 20/30; 25 squats
Jog 10, sprint 40, 10/40; 25 squats
Finished with a nur to the 50, 10 merkins and a sprint back to the goal line.  From there I handed it over to the new Site Q, Headspin…

The THANG, part 2:
Mosey to the ROTC building and grab a cinder block
Exercise In cadence –  Cindy OYO 10 counts
1. Burpees (OYO)

Announcement…New Site Q!  Headspin!!!, Yeager CSAUP, read newsletter

Prayers/praises: heath of Pax/Sawdust’s elbow, Grassy’s M, others I’m forgetting

YHC Started this journey as a site Q on September 30, 2020 at RPG.  Took over at Varsity October 22, 2021.  It has been an honor and a blessing to carry the shovel flag at both sites and I’m privileged to find a new site Q for Varsity.  
I think the lineage for the site started with Skate, then Kielbasa, Harry Carry (I’ve been told) made it great again and Splinter was who handed it to me.  
I’m looking forward to whatever Headspin wants to do at the site in the future!
