Second round discuss with your wing men something you learned from your father. Each cone was 10 leg Lifts.
Third round we voted for burpees or donkey kicks.  The rep count wasn’t provided but we agreed on donkey kicks. Rep count was 10. Discuss w your wing men proudest moments with your father. YHC was college graduation, marriage and pregnancy.
Single file line organized from slowest to fastest man at the base of the steep hill. Game of catch me if you can. First runner gets a three tree head start and needs to top the hill before second runner. I thought the gap was too wide but almost got caught by the fastest man Fishsticks.

The New Name of the Swamp is …

Leave a comment

Today was the launch of the Swamp at a new location. The new name will be revealed at the end so you can skip down or search Slack.
10 men showed up, will a sneaky snowman arriving after warm-ups. Slow mosey to the church parking lot for COP. Standard exercises (SSH, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, Plank Stretches. Next we broke into groups of three, alternating sprints by each pax to get our heart rates up. Ten minutes, with a decrease in distance making the rest period less as we progressed through this exercise.
Next, we moseyed to the daycare parking lot for two rounds of Ab exercises (LBCs, Flutters). No rest, continued on our journey to the fountain. Half Pike routine, 10 hand release merkins at the fire station, down the hill to the fountain, 1 burpee and +1 after every pass, top of the other hill, 10 lunges. Rinse and Repeat. Most pax got in 5 to 6 rounds.
Back to COT.
Great job everyone. Its good to see guys out this morning especially with it being hot and muggy.
New AO name: Stockade

This is what I get for bringing Tinsel COVID tests

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Forgot this part. It was a ruck though… Warm ups are for the weak…
THE THANG:

So Tinsel needed some approved COVID tests for his return from Mexico and I had a few left over so I told him Thursday night I would bring them to Chupacabra in the morning… His response was basically “Great! Can you Q too?” So this is what you get when that happens

Total miles: 2.11 on my watch

Basically went to TCES and back with some “discomfort stops” (not really bad enough to be actual pain…)

Halfway: 20 High-Pulls, 20 Overhead Press
Turn: 20 Squat, 20 Bent Over Rows
Halfway: 20 Squat, 20 High-Pulls
COT: 20 Overhead Press, 20 Curl

Funbags and whining

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Moroccan night clubs, side straddle hops, windmills
THE THANG: Indian run w/ 40# sandbags. Front guy gives bag to next guy, drops to do 5 merkins, then sprints to rejoin line telling front person to pass bag. Broke into 2 teams and did that for a lap. Then stayed in teams and did sandbag pass back, last person runs with bag to front. Did this across field Then down to bottom of big hill. At bottom of hill, stay in 2 teams. Both teams had to complete 100 burpees, 200 merkins, 300 LBCs, 200 squats, 100 bent over rows w/sandbag, 5 laps running up hill, and 3 laps with sandbag up hill. These were totals by team. Sandbags were not to be dropped at all 5 burpee penalty for dropping bags, no penalties for the first 30 minutes.
Back to the grassy area to pick up the 60# Funbags, 3 Pax decided to run away before more pain was inflicted.
Next evolution was the tunnel of love; form a line and stay in plank position about 3 ft apart from other pax, pull/drag the sandbags sideways until we reach the other side of the field, back to start with same movement.
We formed two teams of 5, movements:
– sand bag toss (sideways) using only 60 # bags, alternate between all pax, across the field and back, loosing team did 5 burpees.
– squat, clean and toss with 60# bag, across the field and back, losing team did 5 burpees.
– bear crawl sand bag pull/drag, across the field and back, loosing team did 5 burpees.
Lots of whining coming from a few pax.
Done with sandbags, 10 burpees for everyone. Run to pull up bars, two rounds of 5 pull ups for everyone.
Back to COT, one minute AMRAP hand release merkins. Most pax completed 30 reps, a few pax more than 40, form was of the essence.

COT: prayers for all pax and family members that are going through health issues.

Tinsel out!

Deck of fun w/insurance

Leave a comment

Started w/some stretchy things then mosey down to MS for 20 merkins, 20 squats, and LBC. Mosey for a while, 15 of each, mosey then 10, mosey some more for 5 each.

Deck of fun w/insurance:
♡ = hard release merkins
♧ = jump squats
◇ = big boys
♤ = monkey humpers
Ace=1, cards 1 – 8, do the reps at each of the three lines, suicide run style
9 – K (13 for those that are challenged), only do the rep at the far line
Each person pulls 2 cards. Before pulling cards PAX can decide if they want insurance. 5 burpees for insurance. If you take insurance and pull 2 high cards, group only does half of reps. But if one low and one high card then group does everything.

I think we made it through about 2 rounds. PAX took insurance about 75% of the time and it paid off 0% of the time. Anyway, something different to try and blend some running in with the normal deck of Death.

Also, not sure about Slash’s new diet but he needs to cut down on the fiber. Thank goodness we were outside and there was a breeze!

WARMUP:
Some old man stretchy things and a few merkins

THE THANG:
Heavy stuff we carried:
– 80lb bag
– 70lb bag
– 50lb bag
– Olaf’s Hammer of Justice
– Olaf’s 80lb bag of shit stuffed in a 60lb bag
– Log – it’s big, it’s heavy (-ish), it’s wood

– maybe something else?

As a group, we carried the heavy things around the back of the school to the playground and put them down. Marked off roughly 40yards.
Did 11s with Ruck Merkins and Overhead Presses.

Carried the heavy stuff (everyone has to carry something different each time) out to the right and to the end of the fence. Bear crawled with rucks to fire hydrant and back.

Continued loop around back of school to small parking lot for some ruck curls.

Continued carrying heavy things to front lot to play a little catch me if you can.

Final movement was practicing carrying our body weight (or close to it) for about 200 yds.

MARY:
It’s dudes only, bro.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
These is where we tell people about up upcoming events.

COT:
This is our 5th Core Principle.

For those who chose to fartsack, shame on you. For those who posted elsewhere this morning smart choice. We ran to back parking lot for a quick COP then went right into the pain. At bottom of entrance to GHMS we would run to the first light pole: 5 squats and 10 merkins; run back to starting point. Then run to next light pole and do same exercises.  Run back to starting point. Run to the next light pole, and so forth till you ran to each light pole up to Dam Road. I call is Lights to Heaven.

It sure felt like I was going to heaven with the loss of oxygen.

thanks Shower Curtain for opportunity.

The Slo-burn climbed a ladder or two

Leave a comment

14 Pax accelerated into the weekend with a workout plan that offered Jacob’s Ladder, 5 of Diamonds, and a Ladder that offered burpees, Donkey Kicks, BigBoys, BombJax, and Squats.

We began the beatdown with a slow mosey that would keep the group close together and offered up some mumble chatter on the lack of ground covered with this small lap.

The group circled up for some warm-up :

SSH, Squats, Merkins, Cherry Pickers, Moroccan Night Clubs, and some stretching.  The group quickly transitioned into two rounds of a 1-minute HIIT – 10X Merks, 10XSquats, and 10x LBCs.

After the warm-up  – we partnered up with Jacobs ladder using partner merkins and partner big boys. Each rep was completed simultaneously by each partner w a hand slap for accountability.  Partner Merkins with a mosey to another side of the parking lot for the Big Boys.

Once completed, we transitioned into a modified 7 of Diamonds, ( 5 reps was the factor)  -four corners were the destination.  ( 5, 10, 15, 20 ) Round 1 – 5 Bobby Hurleys at each corner. Round two offered 10 Merks at each corner, round three offered 15 squats at each corner.  We kept the group together by adding cadence w volunteer (voluntold) random pax leading the count.  The mode of transportation was greeted w some groans from the group.  Mosey, bear-crawl, NUR, and modified lunges took us between the 4 corners.  The Pax finished the round with Flounder taking control and offering a modified version to keep the Pax guessing…..

As time was quickly passing, the men moseyed down a slight incline to be greeted with the uphill ladder as the final round.  The ladder contained 9 squats at the bottom rung, followed by 5 burpees, 6 Donkey Kicks, 7 Big Boys, and 8 Bomb Jax.

We headed back to COT for a 5 min round of Mary to close out the day.  Shout out to Change Order for breaking out the Boat/Canoe which was greeted by a time check request and more mumble chatter (or groaning)

Prayers were offered for upcoming Graduation, travels, marriages, surgeries, and overall blessing for the group.

Nice work!!
