1 minute in the Kitchen

This was the first time Qing at TC Elem. Not the closest sight for me. Started with a mosey around the back with a couple stops for SSH, stretch, IW, HW more mosey. Get to bus drop off area for more warm up MNC, O/H Clap, merkin and Peter Parker. I came by earlier and dropped off sand bags and station cards.

We had 4 stations with 4 rounds. The thang was do each exercise for 1min and then move to the next station. Complete 4 stations = 1 Round. After each round a lap around the bus parking lot.

Round Sta 1. 2. 3. 4
1 – Curls. Merkin. Dips. LBC
2 – O/H Press. WAM. MH. Plank Jacks
3 – Curl/Hold. Diamond. Calf Raise. Plank Tucks
4 – Squat. CDD. SSH. Flutter

Mosey with bags back to front of school for Mary. Closed out with COT.

Thanks Maximus for the opportunity to lead and share the sandbags from an old AO “Normandy”. AO was an original at the complex and had a mix of Indian Land and FM guys. That is where my F3 journey started 10yrs.

It wasn’t a basketball court but it will do

WARMUP: just ran around the school and then took a bonus lap around the long loop….. people were questioning whether this was a running AO. Small circle: Windmills, Slow Low Squats, Merkins, Mountain climbers, Merkins, Mountain Climbers, Morracan Night Clubs, Squats, Seal jacks
THE THANG: Ran to end of parking lot and made make shift basketball court for the purposes of line drills (formally known as Suicides). We ran 50% and then did an exercise. We continued to do this until I ran out of things to do and the clock got close to 6. We finished with a “full” parking lot line drill and a circle for some stretches to cool down. Everyone enjoyed the Burpees and the fact we were as slow as our brothers.
MARY: Too good at time management to need this…
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s, Dam to Dam, probably something else…
COT: Prayers for children in our schools, marriages

178 Year Anniversary of The Naval Academy

It was a cool crisp morning in the Fort but fear not, the mumble chatter kept us warm.

Quick warm up and we mosey 10 feet over to the field behind the AO.

Moseyed across the street to the hill of pain for some 7’s with a bear crawl as the mode of transportation.

ALCATRAZ 10 YR ANNIVERSARY PARTY

PRE-WORKOUT: Pullups with Trucker

WARMUP: Run back and forth two times in the Runde parking lot

THE THANG:

After a brief introduction including some history of Alcatraz, Funhouse kicked off COP with 50 SSH, (although I believe 100 were planned in homage to Santini). From there it was imperial walker x 10, hillbilly walker x 10. Before we got to the meat of the workout, YHC called out a classic Alcatraz upper body workout called Green Sally (Decibel/2014). It’s a song by Moby called ‘Flower’ where you plank when he sings ‘Green Sally Up’ and drop to 6″ when he sings ‘Green Sally Down’. It’s pretty tough to complete the whole song and I don’t think anyone did today. But, you have to have monster shoulder strength. Because we had a large group today, we split them in half and started our Q’s:

Funhouse on Q:
The Wheel of Pain (Funhouse/2013)
Each PAX gets a cone with an excercise and reps.
40 yard diameter circle with a cone in the middle.
Do the excercise on the cone, run to the middle and out to the cone to the right.

Freddy Mercury – 25
Lunges – 30
Burpees – 15
Merkins – 15
Rosalita- 30
Squats – 25
LBC – 25
Burpees – 10
SSH – 30
Parker Peter – 25
Plank Punches – 30
Mountain Climbers – 30
Merkins – 15

Senator Tressel on Q
Mosey to the bottom of the hill on Tara Tea Drive for ‘Quadzilla’ (Zima/2018)
Group 1 does squats while Group 2 runs backwards up the hill and does 5 bombjacks at the hilltop. Run back down and flapjack. Rinse and repeat 2 more times.

Mosey to the playground for pullups, step ups, and ab exercises (Senator Tressel/2013) We did 2 rounds today

Mosey to the wall by the concessions stand and split into two groups.
Group 1 does Peoples chair and passes a kettle bell (White Lightning/2018), while Group 2, runs to the fence, hops over it, sprints up the hill, does 3 burpees at the top, and runs back to the wall. Flapjack. (Jekyll/2017) We did 2 rounds today.

Form a line for tunnel of love (stolen from Santini at WEP/2012)

MARY: Hello Dolly x 20, Seal walk (Cornhole/2013), Navy Seal Team Sit Ups (Santini/Trucker 2013)

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your newsletter

COT: Today we celebrated 10 years at Runde Park by paying homage to some of the classic beatdowns led by the great Q’s of Alcatraz. Funhouse and I drew an Alcatraz record 32 Pax and that made me very proud (of course, we advertised heavily, offered free coffee, beer, cake, and closed the other two Saturday AO’s so maybe that had something to do with it – LOL). Although, attendance at bootcamps on Saturdays isn’t what is used to be, I will post whenever I am able. Runde Park has been my home on Saturday mornings, and even after all these years, I still look forward to getting up early, meeting the Pax at 6:30, and doing that tough bootcamp workout. Many thanks to all that posted with us this morning and special thanks to our current and former site Q’s: Funhouse, Smuggler, Trucker, Skipper, and Uber for their leadership and help pulling this all together. I appreciate all you guys!

Prayers: ST’S mom with cancer, DD’s friends with a new pregnancy, Long Duck recovering from burns and back injury
