Break from rucking

Leave a comment

I normally ruck on Tuesday so this was a nice change. Beautiful morning, temperatures are really great this time of year. Go time hit so quick disclaimer then yog down the main drive. Did some butt-kickers, high knees, and karaoke along the way. Circle of for some warm ups, normal fare but ended in mucho chesto (10 regular merkins, 10 wide arm, 10 diamond, 10 right stagger, 10 left stagger, 10 ranger) – arms are smoked after this. Jog to loop in front of school. Bear crawl length of parking spaces, jog to end for 10 bombjacks, jog to start of parking spaces, lung walk length of parking spaces, jog to end for 15 merkins, jog back to start of parking spaces. Rinse and repeat. Jog over to lot between schools. Leg pyramid: 10 plank Jack’s, 20 lunges, 30 mtn climbers, 40 squats, 50 seal Jack’s, 40 squats, 30 mtn climbers, 20 lunges, and 10 plank Jack’s. Short mosey around lot to shake legs out then over to benches. 15 dips, 10 box jumps, 15 dips, 8 box jumps, 15 incline merkins, 6 box jumps, 15 decline merkins, 4 box jumps, 15 dips, finish with 10 box jumps. Circle up, each PAX are doing lunges while one by one a PAX does 3 burpees. Went around the horn twice with that. Mosey back to cars to finish with a few mins of Mary. I think we hit everything today, nice work. Thx for the opportunity Barkley!

COT: Prayers for all those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

We had a good crew today and the cool temps were a welcome start to the morning. I’ve done this workout enough times that I can do it on-the-fly with no planning. Normally it’s 20 reps of everything, but I had a long, physical day yesterday and decided to scale it back. Five rounds of 20 burpees scared me a little, but I’m confident the Pax could have pushed through it if they had to. This morning, we hit all the main muscle groups, the weather was perfect, and the Pax put in the hard work. It’s always a pleasure to be with the fine men of F3.

It was a beautiful morning in The Fort and everyone was in the mood to pick things up and put them down.
We headed off campus down towards Decibel’s new work dojo. We did a little four corners action with ruck shuffle between corners.
Corner 1 – Merkins, Corner 2 – Squats, Corner 3 – Flutters, Corner 4 Carolina DryDocs.
We double timed it back to COT for prayers and praises.

75mins, a little complexity, a lot of effort

The image of the board will be used as the workout details but in case others want to use this, here are a few notes to consider:
– Split the group if needed.
– Predetermine a good distance for the Mode of Transportation (M.O.T.) and ensure it’s clearly articulated.
– Keep repeating the “Thang” section until every PAX completes 1 time on the M.O.T.
– Give example of the exercise before that “Thang” section, not all examples in the beginning.
– Open to other feedback
WARMUP:
THE THANG: See image.
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Newsletter content.
