PAX on a String

Leave a comment

We had 9 Him (3 Runners and 7 Bootcampers) at The Fort this morning for PAX on a string! What is PAX on a string you may ask? 🤔🤯 Let’s find out.

Warmup

20 Side Straddle Hops
10 Cherry Pickers
10 Windmills 
10 Little Arm Circles
10 Merkins 
Down Dog/Honeymooners 
10 Dying Cockroaches 

The Thang

PAX on a String – I happen to have a battle rope in my car like I am sure most people do 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️, so the idea was to keep the PAX together and engaged. Everywhere we moseyed we all had to carry the battle rope together. First stop was the Church about a half mile down the road.

Once we got to the church we setup the battle rope where each PAX got a chance to use the rope. The timer was the rest of the group running stairs. Every 3 sets of the stairs, one the PAX would rotate to the rope. After everyone got a shot at the ropes we switched to dragon walking up the stairs same rotating fashion with the rope. 

We moseyed about another half mile down the road to the next church, PAX on a String style, for a little Dora action.

Partner 1
100 Merkins 
200 Squats 
300 V-Ups

Partner 2 
Run around the playground 

Each time you finished an exercise we did a battle rope partner pull across the parking lot hill.

Half way through the V-Ups we moseyed another half mile towards one of the Pike parking lots, PAX on a String style of course, to finish up the V-Ups.

We headed back to COT for some Mary and announcements/prayer/praises.

Board of pain while watching Bonsai try to throw a weighted ball onto the school roof

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Lap around the lot with some SSH, Windmills, Moroccan Night Clubs, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walkers, and Cherry Pickers

THE THANG:

Board of Pain with rotating PAX being used as the timers:

Timing Movements:
– 25 Wall Balls (first time through the below list)
– 25 Slam Balls (second time through the list)
– 25 Over the shoulder sandbag toss (third time through but never made it to this one)

Rest was whatever time it took for the PAX doing the above movement to return to their bell and the next one to begin the timing movement

Remaining completed PAX board of pain consisting of:

– Swings
– Curls
– Squats
– Upright Rows
– Figure 8
– Bent Over Rows
– Chest Press
– Swings
– Halos
– Lunges
– Skull Crushers
– Snatch

Apparently swings are so great I put them on there twice. Bonsai had the quick idea to do one of the movements you missed during your timing round. Well thought out… clearly a man who is used to adjusting his Weinke on the fly…

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Hog & Coyote is tomorrow, but if you didn’t know that, it is probably in your best interest to not make any decisions about it at this point

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey around parking lot twice mixing in buttkickers, high knees, & shuffles. Circled up and performed WindMills in cadence x 5, 3 burpees oyo, CherryPickers in cadence x 5, 3 burpees oyo, Moroccan KC in cadence x 10, 3 burpees oyo, Merkins in cadence x 5, 3 burpees oyo
THE THANG: Everyone was instructed pick up bricks out of the back of my car. PAX were instructed to hold onto those bricks for the entire workout.
1st Round – While lunge walking 10 yards PAX had to raise bricks out to the side with each lunge. Once we reached our 10 yard destination we performed 10 Bomb Jacks with bricks. Did this for 5 stations.
Round #2 – Jack Webb – 2 exercises with 1:4 ratio concluding at 10:40. Exercises were Merkins on bricks and Overhead Claps with bricks.
Round #3 – Same stations we used for the previous lunge walk were used to perform a Burpee Suicide ladder. Starting line – 1 burpee, run to first station 1 burpee, run back to starting line 1 burpee, run to 2nd station 2 burpees, back to starting line 1 burpee, so forth and so on, 5 staions.
Round #4 – Supermans with Bricks – Lay on your stomach, performed 10 sec holds in 4 different positions -Superman, Field Goal, Airplane, Ripcord. Once PAX had a good understanding of the positions we went through them again with a 7 second hold and no breaks in between positions.
Round #5 – Indian Run with Bricks 3 times around the parking lot. If you’ve never ran with bricks you are missing a real treat.
Round#6 – Same routine as the 1st round, but with backward lunges as travel mode and instructed to raise bricks straight ahead, at each station PAX were instructed to sit in the Al Gore position with bricks raised to the front and perform 10 pulses. JWOW’s form was noticeable!!!
Round#7 – Circle up and get on your 6. Completed 25 toe touch crunches with bricks in cadence, 20 reverse crunches in cadence, 15 V-Ups with Bricks, and then 20 oyo WindShield Wiper leg raises. DONE!!!

4 Men and a Robotic Bird

Leave a comment

It was a muggy morning in The Fort, as 4 HIM decided to get up 15 minutes earlier than all of the land of milk🥛 and honey 🍯 and accelerate.

We rucked over near Dolce Lusso in Kingsley for some highlights and some stair work. The exercises was crazy eights which ended up being crazy nines. It was 8 Merkins at the bottom of the stairs, then we rucked two flights of stairs and did 1 Overhead Press on the other side of the stairwell. There was a total of 1.5 miles in stair work and a plethora of Merkins and Overhead Presses.

We then rucked around the Kingley loop to cap off the workout.

Back to COT for prayers and praises. 🙏🙏
