Only Took A Week And Half To Write This Up

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Started with a warmup lap around the track for 1/4 mile. Then we did 15 Hand Release merkins, 15 Cherry Pickers, 15 Hill Billy Walkers, Moraccian NightClubs , and 15 Over Head Claps

THE THANG: Usually this AO does Broga prior to the boot camp version of workout. I opted for 20 minutes of Broga afterwards as I prefer to stretch with warm muscles to get a deeper stretch. So here’s what we did. After the warmup had Pax mosey over to football field for a exercise I found called The Red Bruchetta: It goes like this,

Start at one end zone run to other end zone and do 100 SSH’s, run back to starting end zone and plank while waiting for six to return.
Next run to the opposite 25 yard line and do 75 Mountain Climbers run back and plank on elbows till 6 is in
Go to 50 yard line and do 50 LBC’s return and do Hello Dollys till 6 is in.
Go to 25 yard line do 25 Monkey Humpers return and do Flutter Kicks
Go to 15 yard line do 15 Burpees and return and do Penguins in cadence.
This took about 25 minutes to do which left about 20 minutes of Broga to wrap it all up. Thanks Bodywash for the Q.
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: The Fort 10 year anniversary in September
COT: All parents and kids returning to school.

Takin’ it back old school because I’m an old fool

Leave a comment

WARMUP: we ran up the hill on Massey into the big parking lot to circle up. Started with some SSH and stopped pretty quick to get in cadence. 5 burpee penalty. Started over with SSH in cadence…stopped again to get in cadence. 3 burpee penalty. Started again and stayed in cadence for the most part. Moved on to sumo squats, merkins, shoulder taps, up and down dog, and finished with some back stretching.
THE THANG: From the parking lot, we ran down the grass hill over to the small lot with the wall that used to have nails sticking out (we didn’t find any of those). We did 7s here with burpees at the bottom, jump the wall, and donkey kicks at the top.

Finished here and had a short run over to the “step up” wall. Before we left the parking lot, we were reminded we have one mouth and 2 ears and if we’re thinking of our responses before someone else is done speaking, are we truly listening??

Made it to the step up wall where we did 11s. Steps up were both legs (bad idea here) and we did decline ranger merkins for the other half of our 11s (10+1, 9+2…1+10).

Left here with the plan to go to LBJ church and with 15 min left, we Omaha’s back to the big parking lot. Dora was the plan and previous site Q Bobber suggested running up and down the big hill…so we did. Partner up and Dora was: 100 diamond merkins, 200 jump squats, 300 flutters 2 count…which no one made it to flutters.
MARY: 5 min to spare we ran back to COT for MARY. Both Jackelope and State Farm got a chance to call cadence and crushed it!
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots! Check out the newsletter! Dam to dam is coming so look for Sept 1 sign up!
COT: welcomed Stiletto who was visiting Maximus from TX, and Wegmans has 13 weeks to perfect his smoking craft as he takes care of that new baby!

Swampy Soup conditions were no match for 17 men to do the harder thing by launching from startex and heading into the #gloom. And when I say #gloom, I mean original AO, full grass, dirty, immersion. *just want to add that it makes me so happy to see Bojangles out with us again. pretty close to an OG and a strong leader. 2.0 Jackalope falling right in and establishing his own path too. Very cool. Cousin Eddie Accelerating, Bobber has the gift of gab, and Grout is a silent killer.
WARMUP: Full COP with SSH, IW, Merkins, Windmills, overhead claps.
THE THANG:
1. head to hill for Jacobs ladder (7) with Donkey Kicks and Bombjacks
2. Playground- Partner up for lap around playground while partner does pull ups till return. Flapjack. Rinse/Repeat
3. Partner Derkins/Dip. P1 hold plank, P2 does exercise on back of P1. 10 reps. flapjack; Rinse/Repeat

Leave a comment

Warmup: 50 SSH IC

Mosey up “the hill” all the way to Harris Street stopping roughly .2 miles for 12 Merkins IC
Run down Harris to a Church Parking Lot for another 12 IC Merkins
Took a Right down a street towards WEP. Stopped in Pike Parking Lot for 12 More Merkins IC
Stopped at the corner by 160 for 12 More Merkins IC
Circled back to the Parking Lot by the band stand for 12 More Merkins IC

At the Parking Lot we did a 2 minute Drill. Every 2 minutes a timer would go off and we would have to run up to the smaller parking lot by the road. Throughout the routine the PAX
would execute : 40 Burpees, 80 Squats, 120 4-CT Flutters. (the flutters were a real crowd pleaser)

Finished up there at around 5:48 which meant a nice mosey back towards COT stopping along the way to do 10 HR Merkins at each stop sign. We did 10 more at COT to get us to 150 Merkins for the day

Once we got back to COT we had time for a short AB filled Tabata 45 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest. Exercises were:
LBCS
Hello Dolly’s
Hammers
Big Boy Sit-ups

Burpees.

Took us right to 6:00

Prayers for safe travels, health, and hope for work challenges.

Thanks to all who came out!

Until next time….
