Aloha Covid

Leave a comment

Wasn’t sure how this was gonna go since YHC has been sick last few days coming back from Hawaii. Asking Fogerty to have my back if I dropped over. With som solid HIMS showing up I knew I had no choice but to bring it.

And so it began with a nice mosey to our first stop for the warmup SSH, IWs and Mtn climbers. Then to the next stop where we had a wall. Wall sits while each PAX took turns doing 5 merkins went up and down the line for extra credit. Mosey tot the next wall for three rounds (thx Maximus for the suggestion) of dips, derkins and step ups 10 each. Mosey to the next spot for a round of 7s with burpees and squats with a run length of parking lot between. At this point we just gettin warmed up to do a partner DORA 100 merkins, 200 squats and 300 LBCs. Mosey back to COT where Fogerty closed us out with a ladder starting with 5 bombjax, 6 donkey kicks, 7 diamond merkins, 8 big boys, 9 Bobby Hurley and 10 LBCs. Finished right on time

We took a moment to watch the sun rise and do the pledge of allegiance earlier. Remembering those who gave it all for our freedoms that we have every day.

More Than A Few Miles

Leave a comment

We had 5 PAX, 5 Rucks and 4 Sandbags (allowed for 1 man to rotate in/out).
WARMUP: Not really.
THE THANG: Transport all the gear to the circle in the NE corner of Kingsley. Rucks only – lunge walk around the circle.
Transport all gear to the traffic light to our east for 10 lifts with either Ruck & Sandbag or Ruck-Only.
Shuffle with all gear back to the circle and regroup.
Ruck with all gear to the SE corner of the big parking on the other end of Kingsley.
Rucks only, 5 Man Makers and 10 LBC’s in each corner while shuffling between corners.
This is where the modification entered as I was losing track of time so we had to fast-forward through some of the Weinke.
All gear to the “stage” next to Carolina Ale House.
With all the gear in a pile, each man lined up 2′ apart, facing opposite directions. Starting at one end, we’d pass each coupon from one man to another, utilizing core muscles until all gear was at the other end. We did this several times so every man got to experience the outer and inner posts.
Slick, bear crawl up the 10 steps then jog back to the start and repeat.
Move all gear back to the flag for some rowing.
5 Bent-Over Rows & 5 Upright Rows
Repeat 3 more times.
MARY: Mixed throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: MEMORIAL MURPH and other things.

Jason Richards “Falcon”

Leave a comment

13 PAX + Falcon = 14. The same number of PAX that showed up in the gloom on 4/29/2024 when Falcon collapsed after his first workout. We are here to honor this man

WARMUP:
9 motivators – a crowd favorite
Low slow squats with coupon
Low slow merkins

THE THANG:
“Falcon Heavy”
14 SSH in cadence buy-in
———————————-
4 rounds of 26 each with coupons. Only progress to the next movement once everyone except Cohiba is done
Flutters with press (the hard way)
American Hammers (the hard way)
Lunges (the easy way)
Curls
Overhead press
No rest Thrusters – if the coupon drops below your chest, 5 manmaker penalty for everyone. This was abused
Shuffle a lap with the coupon
———————————-
14 SSH in cadence (called correctly)

We made 3 full rounds. Some would say we could have finished if we didn’t mess around with motivators during warmup. Scientists are now referring to these claims as “wrong”.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: loads of stuff this summer

WARMUP: Mosey around the small loop with butt kickers & toy soldiers mixed in. To that, add a few warm-up exercises.
THE THANG: Everyone gets the opportunity to complete the 60×60. This is where you start with a sand bag on the ground and hoist it over your shoulder and repeat for 60sec.
Now, partner up so there is 1 sand bag per partner group. Collectively, toss your sand bag around the big loop. Yes, the big one. Most PAX traded off after 5 throws. Pick up the 6 and help out where possible.
Everyone grab your bag and line up at one end of the parking lot, staring down our target ~75yds away.
Run to the other end, 25 American Hammers I/C
NUR back and 15 Dead Lifts with the bag.
