Changing Seasons at Bushwood

9 Pax landed at Bushwood for a balmy November in the Fort. YHC reviewed previous Bushwood backblasts and found my Bushwood VQ from 2021 and decided to bring it back.

One thing I noticed from the backblast was the enthusiasm that I had for the being the Q. The world was beginning to come out of the global pandemic and the fellowship of the Pax provided much needed energy for me to deliver a beatdown. It was the closing of a season and nearing the end of a time of chaos across the globe that will shape our world forever. As I read it in my current mindset, I questioned my current season and the current chaos that surrounds me at this moment. There will always be chaos. YHC will always be going through seasons. Seasons of adversity and challenges and seasons of growth and positivity. Reading the backblast from 2021 was a good reminder of this.

Warmup:

The pax moseyed to the band lot for the following:

SSH x 30 (YHC got off to a rocky start on the cadence here)
IW x 15
Mtn climbers x 15
Peter Parkers x 15

Mosey to CRHS for Line of Fire

1 pax runs back and forth from the tower while the rest of the pax rotate exercises including:

Merkins
Squats
Mtn climbers
Burpees

Next round

LBCs
Flutters
Hello Dollies
Big boy sit ups

Mosey to front of CRHS and partner up

Partner 1 – Balls to wall
Partner 2 – Shoulder taps x 20
Rinse and repeat x 3

Next round
Partner 1 – Peoples chair
Partner 2 – monkey humpers x 20
Rinse and repeat x 3

Mosey to driveway
Bear crawl to 10 CDDs
Lunge back to 20 squats
Rinse and repeat 3 times

Mosey back to Line of Fire
Final round split between abs and shoulder work

Mosey home

During the workout, we discussed seasons of life and the examination of what season you are in with your M, your 2.0s, friends and work. It is important to put guardrails around a season of adversity for Mammon so that it does not affect your M and 2.0s. Its an ongoing struggle for me with work.

We closed with vulnerability and leadership across all of the Pax on their season, their prayers and their praises. All 3 Fs were covered today at Bushwood and YHC leveraged this energy throughout the day.

Making Bushwood Great Again

WARMUP: The warmup was led by Undertaker
THE THANG: The PAX ran to the fancy band training arena-bearcrawled to the field, army crawled and lunge walked to the opposite side. From their we executed an accumulator with Burpees, Squats, Merkins, Shoulder Taps, SSH and LBCs – it was complicated. Afterwards the Pax ran with exercise inserts and said the pledge.
MARY: yes
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Rucktober and D2D
COT: We asked for prayers for Rebels M and Barkley’s friend who recently passed away. We ask that God look after us as we live one day at a time and help us to not continually look ahead in anticipation

It was a honor and privilege to serve as Q

Bushpit Revival

WARMUP: I showed up 2 minutes late because no one pre-ran with me. Since I was warm the PAX were instructed to stretch or do whatever while I shared about me. Simple things like my name, kids, job, etc. Its amazing how so many forget those after we name someone. During my time of sharing Bandcamp was preforming uncomfortably close SSH.

THE THANG: Crazy 8s at the Forest Creek baseball concession stands. 8 figure 8 loops with a different exercise each time passing through the middle. Viewers choice on the exercise, only rule is cant repeat the same one twice.

Then we did some 50-75-100 running where I once again proved I’m the fastest in the Fort

Closed with a dance off. If you know, you know

MARY: Hail

ANNOUNCEMENTS: We have to many fricken blood drives around here

COT: Lord give me the strength to do what I know is right
