No more burpees….sort of.

Leave a comment

WARMUP: mosey to fire station lot
Windmills, low slow squats, imperial and hillbilly walkers and seal jacks all in cadence with a few burpees in between exercises – but just a few. YHC said no more burpees – but YHC should have said no more burpees…..for now.

THE THANG: part 1 – Mary to pull up bar for 30 seconds of pull ups or bar hangs while pax held plank. Upon completion of 6 rounds – pax moseyed on bottom of Tega cay drive hill.

Part 2 – Dora 1-2-3
100 burpees
200 squats
300 flutters

Change Order thought the idea of doing burpees and running hills was questionable. He wasn’t wrong. Pax persisted nonetheless.

Running to different points on the hill
Burpees – partner 1 run to yellow sign and back down to relieve partner 2 and flapjack.

Squats – partner 1 starts run from yellow sign to top of hill and back to yellow sign to relieve partner 2 and flapjack.

Flutters – partner 1 runs from top of hill to cluster of crepe myrtles and back to relieve partner 2

Mosey to ball field for part 3

Part 3 – left, right & center

Partner 1 planks at edge of infield behind 2nd base. Partner 2 runs to come in left field does exercise and returns to flapjack with partner 1. PAX did 3 rounds per partner

Left field cone – 10 lunges
Center field one – 20 bomb jacks
Right field cone – 30 flutters

PAX moseyed to COT for a stretch at 0728 where many of us were reminded of our lost flexibility and time was called at 0730.

MARY: she wasn’t there

ANNOUNCEMENTS: were announced

COT: 5th core principle

Thanks for the men who posted and chose the tougher thing on a chilly but glorious morning. And Uber – thanks for the call.

Honored,

Final Countdown

Leave a comment

Temps dropped a bit so the plan was to keep us moving to stay warm.
WARMUP: Started with SSHinCadenceX50, then moseyed to the loop at the front of the school. While moseying we got in some high knees, butt kickers, & karaoke. We stopped at the wall in the loop.

THE THANG: Following format was used throughout the workout. 2 exercises are called, 1st exercise starts with 10 reps, then perform 9 reps of the 2nd exercise, then perform 8 reps of the 1st exercise, etc… until you reach the count of 1.

At the wall the 1st exercise was Muscle Ups, 2nd exercise was 4 count Diamond Merkins

Moseyed to the benches at the front of the school. 1st exercise was Bulgarian Split Squats ( 10 each leg, 8 each leg, etc… ), 2nd exercise was Jump Squats

Moseyed to the wall at the back of the school. 1st exercise was BallToTheWall Shoulder Taps, 2nd exercise was CDDs.

Moseyed to the playground. 1st exercise was Pull Ups, 2nd exercise was 4 count Wide Arm Merkins.

Moseyed to the loop behind the school. We were moving this morning so YHC had to improvise a ‘filler’ to kill some time. PAX made 3 trips around the loop, at the start and 1/2 way point we performed burpees Lap 1 – 2 burpees at each spot, Lap 2 – 4 burpees at each spot, Lap 3 – 6 burpees at each spot.

Moseyed to the benches located on the side of the school. Back to the previous format. 1st exercise was Butt Touch Pistol Squats, 2nd exercise was Butt Touch Squats.

3 lessons from Sugar Daddy

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Jog to the barber shop – various exercises in cadence – windmills, low slow squats, seal jacks, imperial and hillbilly walkers, plank and stretch – then PAX we’re off for a trip to the dumpsters

THE THANG: lesson 1 – work fast – treat movements with a sense of purpose and urgency. 7’s – merkins at the curb and squats at dumpster 1

Lesson 2 – change speeds – off to dumpster 2 – 7’s with burpees and merkins at ends of the parking lot. Be prepared as a leader to meet others at their pace when attempting to influence

Lesson 3 – throw strikes – mosey to Grace presby and do rounds of incline merkins, step ups OYO and dips at the benches and the curb. Then on the way to COT one more round of 7’s in motion – Diamond merkins and sumo squats. Our activities should be targeted at those priorities (concentrica) most important in our lives. Are they??

MARY: Geometry class – protractors, rosalitas and hello dollys. PAX kept feet off ground at all times……until 0600 anyway.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: of course
COT: remains the 5th core principle

Thanks for the call Slapshot
