A dead end and a roundabout.

Leave a comment

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.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Sign up for Ft Mill Care Center Lawn Duty. It’s summertime and the grass is growing. Get a partner and get it done – easy duty. Tortoise and Hare this weekend and Hog and Coyote (Rock Hill) next weekend for you CSAUP enthusiasts. Read your newsletter!

COT:
Prayers for family traveling, praise for young children’s birthdays.

Each AO has a distinct vibe. Slow Burn has a relaxed vibe because it’s well-lit, it’s moderate, which encourages (I think) more mumble chatter, and it’s on Fridays so the Pax are excited for the weekend ahead. It’s usually a fun workout and even more fun to Q it. I enjoyed the Q this morning, and I met some guys today in person, who I have only seen on Slack video (<@U07LMG5PDQU>, <@U08BNRBQ9D1>). The pax were in good spirits, and it was a pleasure to lead them. The rain stayed at bay, but we did have <@U08G28Z7E> today (see how I did that). Thank you again, <@U04M7P605SM> for the invite, and I look forward to the next one.

Consistency Is a Heavy Lift – Grip It and Flip It

Leave a comment

:checkered_flag: Warm-Up (In Cadence):
– Windmills – 10
– Imperial Walkers – 15
– Low Slow Squats – 10

Slowsy to the tires and cinderblocks to get our minds right for what’s coming.

:steam_locomotive: THE PAIN TRAIN – Round 1
Each PAX picks up the biggest tire they can handle. We move in formation—when a man drops his tire, he drops for 1 burpee. The next PAX drops after a 10-count. We go counterclockwise until everyone completes the loop = The Pain Train.

:repeat: 5 Work Stations (rotate when Sledgehammer station hits 20 swings):
1. Sledgehammer Slams (Timer): 20 swings on the large tire
2. Cinderblock Deadlifts
3. Cinderblock Curls + Overhead Hold
4. Tire Flips
5. Cinderblock Overhead Presses

:runner: Mosey – One lap around the parking lot to reset

:steam_locomotive: THE PAIN TRAIN – Round 2
Same tire drill, but this time 2 burpees on each drop. Stations remain the same.
1. Sledgehammer Slams (Timer): 20 swings on the large tire
2. Cinderblock Deadlifts
3. Cinderblock Curls + Overhead Hold
4. Tire Flips
5. Cinderblock Overhead Presses
6.
:runner: Mosey – Another lap around the lot
Steady. Silent. Suffering.

:steam_locomotive: THE PAIN TRAIN – Round 3 (Bonus Round)
Burpees increase to 3 per drop. Then:
– 1 PAX flips the tire once
– 2 PAX flip the tire twice
– 3 PAX flip the tire three times
– 4 PAX flip the tire four times

Once all reps are in—haul the tires back to the starting line.

:brain: 3rd F: Consistency – The Unseen Power of Steady Leadership
““Today we’re going to dive into one of the most underrated leadership traits—Consistency. In our homes, workplaces, and in the gloom, it’s not always the loudest man who leads—it’s the most steady.””
Key Highlights:
– Consistency builds trust over time.
– Complexity is the enemy—simplify to stay steady.
– The consistent man becomes a safe harbor for those around him.

Challenge to PAX:
Where in your life are you slipping? What system or habit needs to be rebuilt? Steady beats flashy. Every time.

:pray: COT / Announcements / Closing Prayer
We circled up, locked shields, and prayed it out—grateful for the men who show up again and again and again.
