WARMUP: one side straddle hop
THE THANG: one dude runs down a hill and does 3 man makers with kettle bell whilst rest of pax does merkins and other exercises with random counts. Oh, we also made weird grunting noises at the bottom part of squats for no apparent reason.
MARY: there’s just something about her. Maybe she used to be Mark?
ANNOUNCEMENTS: can’t remember, but Will does do pints for padres once per month at the print shop! Ask him for details.

Sweet Route

Leave a comment

I thought it would be a good idea to write down my Q on a slip of paper to make sure I remembered everything about our stops this morning. Yep, lots of Q mocking.
Simple workout this morning, we stopped at every ice cream/dessert shop between the AO location and Gold Hill Road. Short disclaimer, we are crossing roads, look out for cars.
Exercises at each stop: Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs. reps determined by a complicated mathematical equation.
First stop: Dairy Queen, Earlier arrivals: SSHs, rep count 10
DQ was the only franchise in my home town. We had a late bus that would take us home after football practice. The bus driver stopped at DQ and let us purchased food while she dropped off the other students on the other side of town. Only rule was she was not waiting for anyone on the way back. I ordered a chicken sandwich (Bad Choice) which took longer than normal and I got left at the DQ. Luckily, I was able to get a ride back to my bus stop before the bus arrived.
Back to the workout:
Stop #2 – Pelicans – Over 100 flavors of ice, open for over 20 years.
Early Arrivals – Jump Squats,
Rep count 20 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Stop 3 Dunkin Donuts –
Early Arrivals – Plank
Rep count 15 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Fifteen represented the number of Dunkin Donut stops located between my apartment and work when I lived in MA. Best donut – Jelly filled cruller (I don’t think they make them any more, but if you find them let me know).

Stop 4 – Brewsters – Over 150 ice cream flavors, open 1989
Early Arrivals – Lunges
Rep count 35 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Stop 5 – Abbotts – Over 121 flavors, open in 1902
Rep count 30 (Merkins, Squats, LBCs, and CCDs)

Back to COT.

Ice cream is one of my favorite food groups. Each shop has many choices, like our lives, we have many choices. Our attitudes toward family, friends, and others. Our interactions with coworkers, clients, and people we meet throughout the day. Choose to be better.

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.
