Q3.10 Consistency
Why do complex men often lead simple lives?
Simplicity is the foundation of consistency. A virtuous leader simplifies the aspects of his life that are under his direct control – put as much on auto pilot as possible.

THE THANG:
Ran to the playground and did a form of 21-gun salute.
21-gun salute:
* Run a lap
* 21 Merkins
* 21 Hillbilly Squats
* 21 LBCs IC
* 21 MCs IC
* 21 American hammers IC
How can a man keep from going off the rails?
Strong routines are the framework for consistency. A brick is a singular positive habit that is advantageous to the individual. Several bricks together form a routine and create the basis for a Guardrail. Guardrails protect the man from the Flux.

Ran to rear parking lot of elementary school, shoulder taps for the 6.
PAX agreed to do the next sequence in descending order, so we did all of the exercises listed below, ran a lap aroudn the parking lot, and then removed the exercise with the most reps before repeating the list. All reps were completed.
1 burpee
2 bomb jacks
3 merkins
4 jumping lunges (2 each leg)
5 Bobby Hurley’s
6 Sumo squats
7 Carolina Dry Docks
8 lunges (4 each leg)
9 monkey humpers
10 squats
How can a man learn to be more consistent?
The Virtuous Leader focuses on bandwidth, not perfection. There will always be fluctuation. Knowing this, the Virtuous Leader Accelerates his Consistency by focusing on the bandwidth of his fluctuation rather than perfection. His objective is to reduce the distance between his peaks and valleys to something so small that only he can see it.

MARY: Flutters IC, Pretzels IC, Hello Dollys IC, WW2 Sit Ups IC

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Hangin w/ Stang, Pints & Padres, The Hive tomorrow.

COT: Was had, stays in COT.

THE THANG: Webb-O-Rama
4 cones set up along path heading from Millstone Park toward Main Street. On each cone were 2 exercises to be done in Jack Webb style (1:4 ratio)

Cone 1- 1 Burpee : 4 SSH
– >> Bear crawl to next station
Cone 2 – 1 Big boy sit up : 4 American Hammers
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 3 – 1 Knee tar N’Diaye : 4 Squats
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 4 – Traditional Jack Webb –
– >> Run down to Main Street then around to first station

Instead of doing all 10 reps at once, we broke it up into 3 rounds.
Round 1: 1-4
Round 2: 5-7
Round 3: 8 and 9 for cone 1, then just 8 for cones 2-4 since we ran out of time.

Total mileage clocked in at 2.7 miles.

Lots of mumble chatter about runaway Q-drenaline, prime number counting, Knee tar N’Diayes speed, Weinke timing, and murder.

Thanks Kermit for the opportunity to lead!

Inaugural Jaeger

Beautiful March weather (seriously it was a perfect day) for the 0800 launch of the Eröffnung Jäger. PAX were assured by Grinder that the routes were well marked and there were no Zima-miles. This proved to be 99.9% true (you could still get lost if you wanted to…)

The premise was solid. 4 man team (2 Ruckers, 2 Runners). Runners had longer routes and teams met at checkpoints for team exercises before they could head to the next station. The pain stations were tough. Lutefisk about killed the PAX at the first one. (Oh, that was just me?) Triple Lindy had us loading munitions. Cake Boss brought candy, but it was not a sweet treat. (Could have also been that the leg leading to Alison Park was soul crushing….) Tinsel forgot it was a CSAUP and thought he was prepping for a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs wresting match.



The finishing team results:
1.) Vuvu/Beaker (for the record you were suggested to have a 4 man team…)
2.) Cobra Kai’s crew (that included the mythical Gekko)
3.) Camp 3D’s Sugar Shady Band Bug
4.) Cornerstone’s posse
5.) Poppins’ Chimney Sweeps (seriously impressive that Badlands ran back from the final pain station to connect with his teams’ Ruckers)
6.) The Entourage around Shield
7.) Slow Jams and the Lake Ridge Wanders
8.) Lake Wylie’s Wild Thing drinking Whiskey and enjoying a Big Mac (great to see these guys from across the bridge here for the CSAUP)

Afterwards at the Print Shop, we celebrated the Dam 2 Dam fundraising effort where The Fort is sending $7,500 to Defend the Fatherless, $7,500 to Autism Strong, $7,500 to the Fort Mill Care Center, and $10,000 to the F3 the Fort endowed scholarship.

It is an honor to be part of The Fort alongside some amazing high impact men. On behalf of Grinder and the entire planning crew, this backblast is respectfully submitted by the smallest cog in the Jaeger machine—Band Camp.
