Welcome back to the 90s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH while we gathered everyone to get the party started. Then took off for a short mosey over to the flags. Windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squats, merkins. Then ran to the back of the school.
THE THANG: we setup the DJ station for some 90s jams. Stating point was by the gym where the picnic tables were at and we would do 1 exercise, run to the end of the parking lot where the orange cones are normally at, then back to the music for the following exercise, reading left to right and then progressing down. But 1 exercise, then run every time. I think 2.5 miles were got or close to, and the kings were somewhere down to the jump squats.

10 burpees (30 seconds Al Gore)
15 diamonds (30 monkey humpers)
20 hand release (50 calf raises)
25 wide arm (50 flutters)
30 merkins (40 step ups total)
35 rangers (25 incline merkins)
40 carolina dry docs (30 hammers)
45 plank jacks (30 sec wall sit)
50 mountain climber (50 LBC)
60 shoulder taps (25 jump squat)
90 sec plank (25 decline merkins)

MARY: didn’t happen today
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter and shovel flag handoff to Halfback!! Congrats!
COT: love these guys and the support they give each of us!

NMM
When we’re young, our heroes wear capes. As we age, our new heroes wear flaws, scars, and wisdom. They quietly show up, do the work, and expect no applause. Growing up isn’t about losing heroes, it’s about finding real ones.

You men are my heroes. You each have special gifts that I admire. You may not see it, but we do. Spending time in the Gloom with you men makes me better. Thank you.

Are you not entertained?

WARMUP: right to business, broke out into two teams

THE THANG: 4 levels of action:
Round 1) work you way through exercises by flipping over papers, you either advance, go back, or go back to start and have to redo the exercises.
– squats
– American hammers
– Lbc
– Burpees
– Merkins
– ANd more

Round 2) cinder block relay/dora. Teams had to go end to end with the blocks and a KB and use the KB as the baton for the next guy.

Round 3) card sharks, every card had a work out associated, you needed to guess if the next card is higher or lower and do the workout, if you guess wrong you do the exercise and guess again.

Round 4) sandbag relay with man maker stops.

Hats off to Barkey, Brawny, and Conundrum for taking the crown!

MARY: LBC, Box Cutter, flutters, heels to heaven and others

ANNOUNCEMENTS: kitchen sink tomorrow, hog and coyote

COT: prayers and praises

COT:
https://f3nation.com/get-right is never over because “The Time is Always Now.”

If something isn’t solid in your world, what are you gonna do about it? The time is now.
Put aside your ego, doubts, fears, worry, hesitations, past, limiting beliefs, and get started. The time is now.
You know what needs to be done. Gentlemen, the time is now.

“There is never a time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge
is in the moment, the time is always now.”
—James Baldwin

Grateful to share the gloom with you this morning
