Moleskin:
YHC was reminded yesterday that someone is always watching you. Whether its your Concentrica, the Pax or work colleagues, you have infinite opportunity to influence others positively or negatively. The choice is yours. As leaders, ask yourself after interactions with other people “How do they feel after speaking with me?” Did you lift them up or bring them down? Set the temperature for others. Be the light!

Just a little spritz

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Short yog around the campus ending up under one of the overhangs. PAX seemed happy to be out of the ‘spritz’.
THE THANG: Partner up and start with Lazy Dora. 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, 300 Squats.
>P1 does 10 Merkins while P2 holds plank then swap and continue swapping until 100 total.
>P1 does 20 LBCs while P2 holds 6″ leg hold then swap and continue swapping until 200 total.
>P1 does 25 squats while P2 holds Al Gore then swap and continue swapping until 300 total.
Light yog around bus loop to central overhang area.
Who’s the King? Every minute on the minute. Start with 1 burpee and 20 shoulder taps (L+R=1). Each minute add one burpee, same # of shoulder taps. Rest time is whatever time you have left in the 60 seconds. Keep going until you can’t get everything done in the 60 seconds. As Cyclops is fond of saying…this one escalated quickly. If you can’t complete the round then you’re out and you do 5 burpees and 20 SSHs. A few made it through round 8 but no one started 9.
Quick 10 count then move to back lot. 4 rounds of the following: 10 jump squats, 10 plank jacks, 10 bomb jacks, run a lap. Back to the overhang for some Mary: boxcutters, flutters, protractors, and LBCs. Recover, recover. Back to COT.
Great work by the PAX today. I appreciate everyone for coming out in the spritz.

Dude Ranch Fun

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Quick run/jog around the front parking lot then out to the driveway close to the parkway. Bobber arrived a little late and met up halfway through the run, which I think was his plan. Circle up and 10-15 reps of the following:
* SSH
* Windmills
* Imperial walkers
* Moroccan night clumbs
* Strawberry pickers
Good mumblechatter from the start. Then mosey back to the parking lot near the front of the school for the main event.

THE THANG:
4 corner fun
Cones were set up around the front parking lot and also along the car rider pickup area in front of the school at the main entrance. Do the exercise, then the movement to the next cone.
Area was approx 100yds long x 30yds wide.
1. Burpees, then Lt Dan to next cone (~100yds)
2. Box cutter, then crab walk to next (~30yds)
3. Merkins, then Lt Dan (~100yds)
4. Mountain climbers, 2 ct, then crab walk (~30yds)
Repeat until time out
Reps of each exercise were descending with each round: 25, 20, 15, 10, 5 (75 total reps of each exercise)
Straight Up showed up late when most were finishing their first round of burpees. He quickly caught up and passed most. Beast, Alot of mumblechatter that died down as we got through the first round. Everyone got through 3 rounds of the loop until we ran out of time (60reps of each exercise). GREAT JOB FELLAS!!!
Quick jaunt back to COT which wasn’t very far.
MARY: None. Out of time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
* READ THE NEWSLETTER. Alot going on. Get involved.
COT:
* Q had to leave at 6 in order to take his 2.0 to JROTC rifle team practice. Sorry.
* Lifting up prayers that were said and unsaid.

It is mornings like this – cold yet clear – where the combination of fellowship, early exercise, and beautiful weather just starts your day off in such a wonderful way that nothing else afterwards can phase you. You already won the day and have been invigorated to take on anything and be thankful and blessed for everything.

Thank you for the opportunity to lead.
