It was dark. It was dank. Visibility was low, but the pain was high. After giving an overly thorough disclaimer, collecting everyone’s social security number, and signing a waiver, we were off for a quick mosey around the park.

Warmup:
SS Hops
Tappy Taps
Windmills
Moroccan Night Clubs
Polish Mating Dance (Goofball)
Stretching

The Thang 1:
7’s on the walking path. Merkins on top of the hill (not Chip Hill) and Squats at the bottom of the hill (again not Chip Hill). Mode of transportation was running.

Mosey over to the parking lot.
LBC’s
Dying Cockroaches 🪳
Big Boy Sit-ups
American Hammers

Mosey over to the grass field for a Jack Webb. It was 1 lap around the field and 4 v-ups. We did a total of 10 laps and 220 v-ups. It was glorious.

Back to COT for stretching, announcements, prayers/praises. There was a meeting of the Bob’s at the Tega Cay Deli afterwards for some deep discussions over coffee.

JWow out.

Band Camp took the hill

Leave a comment

Very delayed in writing this but since Band Camp finally came to a ruck workout and keeps ‘reminding’ me about it, I’ll try to remember what we did.
Ruck up and grab sandbags and head over to small field for some sandbag relays. Grab everything and head over to base of heart attack hill. Partner up and split taking sandbags up the hill. Drop the sandbags at the top and head back down. This trip up no straps. Suitcase, fireman, overhead, however you want to carry your ruck up the hill. Almost lost Tinsel to hills namesake bit his BP finally came down. Link the sandbags together for team weight. Everyone rotated on and off to help carry the weight most of the way back to COT. Times almost up so break apart the sandbags and huff it back for COT. Thanks for the Q opportunity Divac! And I promise next year when Band Camp returns the back blast will be prompt.
