Zombified Q @ ROF

Leave a comment

Coming back from a road trip late at night I managed approx 3 1/2 hours of sleep and found myself contemplating a 'no show' for my Q at ROF @ 4:30 in da morning. I recently had the honor of participating in our Greater Than CSAUP overnight ruck event. That is what pushed me past the selfishness of wanting to choose comfort over commitment, brotherhood. If I could endure that event with no sleep, then I can Q a 45min workout on 3 1/2 hours of sleep! I'm grateful to be surrounded by men who push me to be greater than! Feet hit the floor, water splashed on the face, a little caffeine and it was GO time!

WARMUP: Usual suspects

THE THANG:
Moseyed to the benches on the side entrance of NAFO, Asked PAX to find a spot on a bench.
#1 – 2 exercises: Step Ups & BulgarianSplitSquats
15 reps each leg of both exercises
10 reps each leg of both exercises
5 reps each leg of both exercises

Upon completion asked PAX to partner up for some Time Under Tension
Partner#1 holds Al Gore while Partner#2 completes 10 jump squats. FlapJack until you complete an accumulative rep count of 100 jump squats. Legs were burning by this point.

Moseyed to the pullup bars while picking up a Cindy along the way.
#2 – 2 Exercises: Pullups & ManMakers
Perform both exercises in the following sequence:
1 pull-up, 2 manmakers, 3 pullups, 4 manmakers, etc…
Continue till you reach the count of 10 and then reverse
count back down to 1. Will add up to 50 reps of each
exercise. PAX who finished 1st ended the pain for the
rest of the suffering souls.

Walked over to the hill with Cindy for a little Quadzilla w/ some core work.
#3 – This was done OYO. Run down the hill to the stop sign,
NUR back up to the top of the hill. Grab Cindy and
complete 15 BBSw/Cindy. Rinse&Repeat. We managed
to get in the minimum requirement of 4 rounds to quality
as a Quadzilla routine.

Took Cindy back home and moseyed to COT.

MARY: No Time Left On The Clock

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your NL

COT: STK!!!

Don’t Get Stuck In The Suck

Leave a comment

WARMUP: A few exercises in the parking lot after letting the Birds fly free in honor of Super G, who missed out on this adventure due to work travel.

THE THANG: The weinke featured 3 running options and a related exercise count of high, med, or low # based on the running route selected by each pax.

Route 1 — run loop around the bandshell (short, flat run + High rep count)
Route 2 — run to stop sign at Ardrey St and back (moderate hill, longest run + Med rep count)
Route 3 — run to top of Stairway to Heaven and back (steep hill + Low rep count)

Three rounds for each exercise and pax can take any combination of routes + related reps, doing the exercise at the end of each route.

Exercise 1 – Monkey Humpers
Exercise 2 – Flutters
Exercise 3 – Merkins
Exercise 4 – Shoulder Taps
Exercise 5 – Sumo Squats
Exercise 6 – Burpees (in honor of Super G, inspired by the Q Whisperer Minuteman)

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men's Shelter July 2nd

COT: Pax pushed themselves hard today (and each other) in very swampy weather conditions!

Amid the suck, we bantered about the realities of an endlessly chattering mind that sometimes takes over the human (inspired by a country song by Jimmie Dale Gilmore called "My Mind Has A Mind Of Its Own". This happens to all of us, because we're human. We're made this way. In the words of Pusher "People Suck" and that includes all of us. We're also glorious sons made in the image of our Creator. So, don't wallow in the "I suck" headspace. Apologize where needed. Learn from mistakes. And just shake the voices and get moving again. Yes, you suck, AND you're amazing. Live into your amazingness and don't get stuck in the suck!

Thanks for the Q invite Minuteman and thanks to the pax for the terrific effort!
