S2S meets the coach’s box

Leave a comment

WARMUP: rucks up
THE THANG: ruck towards FMHS, approximately 0.75 miles, the night before I had talked to Badlands to meet with the coach’s box crew at the hill by the football stadium so we can share our gear.
Quick warmup led by Badlands: circled up for SSH, WM, IW, MNC, LSS all IC. We brought 3 sandbags and 6 rucks to the party so we utilized them in a mini-DORA. Instructions were a little mixed up at the beginning because we ended up with 5 groups of 3 PAX… bottom of the hill: 50 burpees – while 2 of the PAX did overhead rifle carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck 100 squats – while 2 of the PAX did farmers carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck 150 merkins – while 2 of the PAX did bear hug carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck, for the final movement we split into 3 groups of 5 PAX and rotated throwing the sandbag up and down the hill

Time to head back to COT, another 0.75 miles to go.
MARY: broga and stretches.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Manion hero Ruck on 9/14.
COT: stays in cot

Goat Track

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
– SSH x30
– Merkins x10
– Peter Parkers x10
– Windmills x10
THE THANG:
Ran to Fort Mill Golf Club which has apparently moved to Augusta National status because we were turned away by the guy pulling the carts out. So a quick audible turned us around and headed back to the top of the steep hill on Withers St.

Here we would still play golf on something not nearly as nice as the course we planned to play. Nasty courses are commonly referred to as Goat Tracks.

9 Holes of Golf:
– Top of the hill is the tee box (perform 2 squats for the first hole, 4 for the second, etc.)
– Circular grass island in front of Fort Mill Baptist Church is the green (1 burpee for the first hole, 2 for the second, etc.)
– Run back and forth between the two points to complete 9 holes.

Most people got through the 7th hold before we needed to call it to mosey back.

MARY:
Took turns calling exercises for 5 min

Leading the Way

Leave a comment

Weather was fantastic at 59 degrees and YHC was excited for my VQ at Soul to Sole.

Based on a recommendation from Maximus, YHC read the Comfort Crisis and became a follower of Michael Easter who is big believer in the power of rucking. Since that time, I was gifted a ruck and have included this in my workouts more frequently yet my only Q to date was a solo workout at Dawn Patrol.

I have been thinking about the 5 Cs of leadership from Q Source recently. Q Source resonates with me on so many levels at home, work and in our community and the 5 Cs serve as the standard for Leading Right. I decided to standardize the definitions of these with the Pax as part of the workout.

The Thang

3ish miles of rucking and shuffling

5 stops along with the way with these 6 exercises:

Bent over rows x 10
Merkins x 10
Overhead Press x 10
Curls x 10
Squats x 10
Lunges x 10

At each stop, we discussed one of the 5 Cs:

Candor
Commitment
Consistency
Contentment
Courage

The fellowship, weather and beat down serve to standardize the day. My prayer is that we can begin to optimize the day.
