DORA Rules at GC

YHC was honored to be given the Q stick at Golden Corral by Half Shell today. This represented my first trip back in the gloom at 100% since dealing with a post D2D bronchitis and my spirits were excited about the opportunity. While not yet Springlike weather, the Pax were quickly sweaty from the downpainment on the day.

After seeing a post by IJ, I decided to maximize the DORA concept at GC today for encouragement, challenge and candor of a partner workout.

Sprints, light poles and burpees

WARMUP: mosey to the far parking lot at the end of the school.

Exercises in cadence included:
SSH
Merkins
Low slow squats
People’s chair with Moroccan night clubs
Hillbilly walkers
Imperial walkers
Windmills
Produce pickers
Peter Parker’s

THE THANG: mosey to the the hill
An exercise was called in cadence at every light pole – at varying numbers of reps – YHC called sprint and pax sprinted to the next light pole. This took place to the top of the hill and then back down – a total of 20 light poles were “visited”. PAX took turns calling exercises on the way down. Leadership is best when shared.

Mosey back to basketball courts with a combo of lunge walks and bear crawls across.

MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: you bet – read your newsletter
COT: remains the 5th core principle. Be thankful for all we’ve been given.

Thanks for the call, Barkley. :eye:

Look at that Hill

Ran around lots of string of pearls.

Tried to climb every hill possible in a reverse bear crawl

Worked a good deal on side lunges, and moving around with ease, finished with a Jack Webb that the brothers tried to skip, but joined us eventually

Always an honor to lead a group of men I respect so much.

Stop and go light or Traffic signal?

Fact: the weinke went through the washing machine as soon as I got home, it did not make it to the dryer

Fact: <@UGU3XR5RP> thought <@U5CVD8D7V> was going to be at The Fort. He was disappointed that DH did not show, he was also very disappointed that I was on Q. 100% True.

Fact: this Q is old, I left it all on the field and was sore for 2 days, but was still only 28% of Band Camp

We toured Fort Mill:
-lot across from Vet park
-The Print Shop parking lot (was hoping for a morning brew, but no go)
-Church of God parking lot
-First Baptist parking lot
-St Johns UMC parking lot
-the wall by Kimballs
-Vet Park parking lot
-back to COT

most stops were 1 exercise, various transportation across the lot, 1-2 exercise, back across, 1-2-3 exercise

We did a Jonah Hill at The Church of God

We did a Matt Foley at St John UMC

Wall work and various Jacks at the Kimballs wall

Mahktar N’Diayes were included at one stop

Bear Crawls, Crawl Bears, Crab Walks, etc

Band Camp, Cyclops and JWOW led the way. Fitness levels that I will never realize.

<@U6AS1MBPG> ran to The Fort from 6@6, participated for an hour, and ran back with 2-50lb sand bags, backwards in the snow. Beast.
<@U5RTPS4M8> ran to The Fort from 6@6, participated (ribbon TBD) and ran back
Twisty, Bass and Fogerty dressed like a stop and go light stopped in

Looks like we made it,

10lbs of crap in a 5lb bag

Route with a couple loops in stockbridge commons neighborhood

Escalator style workout with stops every .2 miles

Stop 1: 5 Burpees
Stop 2: + 10 Big Boy Sit-Ups
Stop 3: + 15 Squats
Stop 4: + 20 Carolina Dry Docks
Stop 5: + 25 Flutter Kicks (4-count)
Stop 6: + 30 Lunges (15 each leg)
Stop 7: + 35 Plank Shoulder Taps (single count)
Stop 8: + 40 American Hammers (4-count)
Stop 9: + 45 Overhead Claps
Stop 10: + 50 SSH (4-count)

Got close to 2.4 miles with warmup but ran out of time and never got to stops 9 or 10.

Just like we didnt get to everything in this workout – when you cram too much stuff into your life you will not have time for everything – get your priorities straight and focus on the important stuff (apparently that was burpees and big boys today)
