WWF Day at Coach’s Box

Disclaimer then some windmills, walkers, and squats. Mosey over to front of school. At each corner 10 HR merkins, 15 squats, 20 SSHs. Finish up at the large grassy area in front. Partner up. Partner push across field performing 11s with Mak Tar Jai’s and Knee Tar Jai’s. 10:1, push across, 9:2, push across, etc.

Next up was the Junk Yard Dogs. We haven’t done this in a while and it was sort of fun to bring them back. P1 does burpee while P2 holds plank. Then P1 shoots under P2. P2 drops to 6″ hold and P1 jumps back over P2. That counts as 1. We did 10 then flapjacked. Got some nice grass exfoliation started so we did 8 each, then 6 each. Paused for a quick leadership discussion: Leadership is solving problems. The day people stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. Back to the JYDs for 5 each. Time is almost up so mosey back for a few ab exercises before COT.

Side note, the grass at FMHS is only slightly better than that stuff down at WEP. Next time we may need to go out to the baseball field where they have bermuda. Anyway, lots of mumble-chatter about old school wrestling and everyone’s favorite guys. Thx Cyclops for the opportunity!

Today we discussed our roles as leaders. We are to step up when others step back. It may be leading a group at work, leading a workout in F3, or volunteering to take the kids to practice. Leaders do what is needed, when it’s needed. TClaps to Battlebot for leading the Armory site for over a year. As counterculture as it is, he stepped out of his leadership role to allow for a new man to step up. TClaps to Naked and Afraid for being that HIM.
It is incumbent upon us to help with that transition – to support our new site Q by volunteering to lead a few workouts and to show up each week. In F3, we lead on a rotating fashion. We are a group of leaders, not a group with a leader. We lead where we can and find a man to replace us when he can do it 80% as well as we can. That’s what leaders do.
Well done, men. It was a pleasure to share the Gloom with you men.

Aye!
