Bruttaly Sweet Revenge

WARMUP: Dynamic warmup by running around the perimeter of the COT parking lot performing high knees, butt kickers, and Karaoke on both sides.
THE THANG: Experienced a brutal workout at The Badger on Monday and it became the inspiration for the following.
Complete 10 rounds by the ROTC building near the pullup bars
10 Pull Ups
15 OH Presses w/Cindy
15 Squats w/Cindy
15 KB Swings w/Cindy
15 Big Boys w/Cindy
Then run down to the bottom of the hill and perform 2 Kraken burpees on your first trip. When you completed the Kraken burpees run back to the top of the hill and repeat. Every time you come down to the bottom of the hill increase the Kraken burpee reps by 2. Some of us made it to round 7, most of us finished on rounds 5 or 6. All of us got our moneys worth.

MARY: No time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter and charities
COT: Lots of prayer requests for healing!

Halloween Fears

Kept ’em moving.
Used a pretty standard warm up:
SSH
IW
HW
Merkins – slooooow cadence
Some yoga

Stopped for pull-ups (Print Shop)
Stopped for wall pull-ups (Springs office building)

Did some unaided pigeon lunges

Made it to the WEP hill for 7s
Burpees and Bombjacks
Reverse bear crawl up the hill
Reverse lunge down the hill

This was hard. Dark Helmet bat flipped

Stopped for Bulgarian Split Squats (Pike Electric)

NMM:
Asked guys during the workout what their biggest fears were. Among the answers were: not leaving a legacy for our family, recurrence of disease, mental health issues in our kids.

Love being in a space where we can work on being high impact men and share what is authentically on our hearts

Bodily functions are real

WARMUP: started with a mosey around the parking lot. Stopped for some SSH, merkins, squats, mountain climbers, and a little back and hip stretching. Made our way over to grab some cindy’s.
THE THANG: Once we had our new toys, we went to the hill for 11s. Shoulder presses at the top with cindy and bottom of the hill hand release merkins. Pax that finished early did chest presses or picked up Pax and finished with them.

Next we took our cindy friend to the pull up bars for work. 7s was the game with 1 pull-up and 6 man makers…down to 6 pull ups and 1 man maker.
MARY: made our way to COT for Mary on steroids…1 hammer, 4 flutters; 2 hammers, 8 flutters…made our way to 5 hammers and 20 flutters before the crying started. Then it was 3 burpees and round the horn ab callouts.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots in the newsletter
COT: patience, schools, families in general.

Friday the 20th at the Stockade – clever title absent

WARMUP: Short “mozyroo” from the AO to the front of Harris Teeter.  YHC has been nursing a bum calf so no SSH were to be had.  We proceeded with  Carolina Dry Docks, Low Slow Squats, American Hammers, Mountain Climbers and Moroccan Night Clubs.
THE THANG:  Another short mozy to the side of HT.  At HT we did a group wall sit with the first Pax giving us a 10 count.  We then crossed the alley and did 5 merkins as a group.  When back to the HT wall we swapped out wall sits for planks.  Rinse and repeat with ongoing 10 counts and merkins (regular, hand release, Diamond, wide arm) alternating wall sits and planks.  After finishing these we did a lap around the oil change place with a brief stop for dips using the wall.  
 Back to HT for the same series but we swapped out merkins for 3 burpees.  Burpees included regular, Superman, Kraken and 8 count.  Repeat the lap (with dips) and back to HT.  Last series we swapped out burpees for 5 big boy sit-ups.
 Mozy to the fountain at the bottom of the hill by the fire dept.  There we did a plank clock with Carolina Dry Docks.  We started at 1:00 and did one CDD.  Plank walk to 2:00 for two CDDs.  Kept going until we did a full fountain lap and 78 total CDDs.
 Briefest mozy ever to the start of the row of arborvitae trees at the entrance to the apartment complex.  Starting with the first arborvitae we did two burpees and lunge walked the row, where at alternating trees, we did two burpees.  48 burpees later we were done.  Running a bit short on time we jogged our way back down the row and did two burpees at every third one.
  Mozy back to COT with one minute to spare.  One minute of full body destroyers ensued and we were all happy.
MARY:  she stayed home
ANNOUNCEMENTS:  D2D fund raisers
COT: Family health, marriages, 2.0s
