Mosey to COT

Moleskine:
Lots of huffing and puffing in the gloom this morning mostly involving YHC’s choices best described as those done in a prison cell – and one Jane Fonda jazzercise sans knee-high Reebok socks.
A few notables:
Dark Helmet loves burpees – please be sure to include them in any AO’s where he HC’s.
Esso and Maximus set the tone in weight vests, floral and all.
Punch List crushed crushed the AMRAPs like, well, a punch list.
T-claps to Man Down for posting despite his 3am college bedtime.
Peabody and JWow were silent but deadly when chiming in on the prison cell burpees and bear crawls.
Soup to Nuts won best hair for the gloom, despite a contended effort by YHC and Dark Helmet.
Always a pleasure – Solo

Pre-Convergence Convergence

Leave a comment

There were Ruckers and runners.

Barry Manilow led the runners for 5+ miles around The Fort.

The bootcampers were led first by Maximus with a SSH x Merkin combo x2 to warm up.
After a quick warm up, the weinke was
10 merkins, 10 mountain climbers (double count) at each of the 9 swings around the park. When done and waiting on the 6 to fill in, hold an Al Gore. To wrap up, starting at the bottom of the grassy hill from the parking lot, flutter kicks, then burpees at the top of the hill.

Cake Boss took second shift with playtime at the playground.
Partnering up, one partner does squats, while the other runs around the playground. Then flapjack. Next was pull ups/merkins following the same format. To wrap up, keeping the same partner, one bear crawled across the field and run back, while the other did flutters. Flap jack until 3 rounds were done.

Fogerty took us home with some 11’s and hill repeats.
At the bottom of the hill with the statue, started with 10 merkins and bombjacks. Half way up the hill, 5 burpees, then 1 squat and big boy sit-up. No burpee on the way back down the hill. Repeat until 11’s are done cutting out the burpees when you hit 5 & 6.

This was a fun 60 min bootcamp.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Clave Boss & convergence in 12/23. Happy Birthday Walker. Tallawah is officially closed for good.

4 mile Deconstructed Burpee

Leave a comment

WARMUP: It is Sweep the Leg. Strive to do that prior to 5:15
THE THANG: Run a 4 mile loop: https://f3thefort.com/2022/02/25/stl-just-keep-going/ (if you wanna see the route. side note: it wasn’t my first rodeo on this route)

Stop along the way for deconstructed burpees:
10 squats
run
10 squats
10 plank jump ins
run
10 squats
10 plank jump ins
10 merkins
run
10 squats
10 plank jump ins
10 merkins
10 plank jump ins
run
10 squats
10 plank jump ins
10 merkins
10 plank jump ins
10 SSH
run
Repeat the full 5 steps each subsequent stop

PAX were advised to just jump in where the most guys were when they got to the exercises, or to skip the exercises entirely and just keep running.

When we stretch to a route that necessitates covering 4 miles, YHC gets worried about leaving PAX. We managed to stay together and Fishstix + Badlands picked up the 6 today making sure we all arrived back at COT resting on 4 miles. Bravo gentlemen!

NMM:
Sometimes we have to choose the hard thing ourselves. Sometimes we have to choose to do the hard thing that life is handing us. If we skirt away from doing the what’s difficult when needed, what worse thing will be waiting for us in the future?

Soul Stealer

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We walked to warm-up
THE THANG: Walked to Sunbelt lot all the while peppering the men with extremely well thought out and insightful questions that stirred their inner souls… there was crying…
Once at the lot, we did Curls, OH Press, Flutters, Dips, and Sumo Squats in ascending sets of 3, 6, 9, etc… with a lap around some islands (200 yds) in between. Mode of transportation varied from run, bear crawl, overhead carry, walk… you get the idea…
Then we rucked back to COT area for a few cool down exercises…

MARY: No chicks…
