Bounty Hunter return to the gloom

Leave a comment

Bounty Hunter (Slackless) had far too few coupons and led us through a “pass the weights around” board of pain. When we had enough, we moseied around the Site choosing our own exercises in cadence.

My man Bounty was a little rusty…all the more reason to get his butt back in the gloom.

Training Ground Carry

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Nope
THE THANG: 6 PAX shared (3) 60lb sand bags while the 7th man nursed an injury while wearing a weight vest, of course.
Make our way over to the WEP parking lot and down the trail weaving our way to the bottom of Harris Street. Here’s where we tried something new. Each PAX would have the “opportunity” to single-handed farmers carry the 60lb sand bag up to the top of the hill.
From there, make our way over to the bottom of Massey for…you guessed it, walking backward up Masses. Every PAX went 2x.
MARY: Not officially but tighten your core during the carries.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Give blood.
COT: 5th Core Principle.

Crazy 21s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: it’s minnow pond. So, no

THE THANG:
Fast pace 3.75ish miles stopping to do Super 21s.

That’s 1 merkin, 1 squat, 2 merkins, 2 squats, etc. up to 21 merkins, 21 squats. 231 total reps: n(n-1)/2 is the formula if you want it.

Did this back in 2019 https://f3thefort.com/2019/12/19/super-21s-at-minnow-pond/ it sucked then too.

MARY: a little with the 45 seconds remaining when we returned to COT

NMM: listen, every man that posted today is already trying. Sometimes it’s not enough just to try. We have to find ways to be better. Maybe that’s working with more intensity, maybe that’s eating better, maybe that’s resting smarter, maybe that’s speaking kindly to your children… but whatever it is, if you’re already trying and you need better, find a way.

It’s 2025, MEN of The Fort it is time to thrive

Moon walk up Harris Street

Leave a comment

11 men attended the weighted stroll this morning. We made our way around town finding a hill at the bottom of Harris. Backwards walk up the hill, trek around WEP and one last look at the downtown XMAS lights
