Monday Morning Constitutional

Scheduled Q is rumored to be on IR, so YHC grabbed the stick. Welcome, no FNG’s, disclaimer was made. PAX were not content with the mediocre disclaimer, so it was redone & core principles were also reviewed. No more grumblings were heard, so we began!

WARMUP:
– 20x SSH
– 10x Imp Walkers
– 10x Hillbilly Walkers
– 10x Large Arm Circles (5/Fwd & 5/Rev)
– Farmer carry KBs to fire pit area

THE THANG:
– Find a partner – we had 8 PAX, so 4 groups. First group called an exercise. Partner #1 did reps while Partner #2 ran a lap around the parking lot following the curb around where we were gathered. Reps continued until the 6 was in, then switched. After 2nd partners completed their lap, next group called the next exercise.
– Completed 3 rounds. Audible was called between round 1 & 2 to shorten the loop. Due to time, the lap was shortened even more between rounds 2 & 3. Exercises included Man Makers, Swings, Curls, 2-for-1 combos (such as clean & press), OH Presses, Sgl Leg Deadlifts, 6″ Leg-Raised Holds w/Presses, American Hammers, and more.
– Back to COT for Mary.

MARY: Various – Rotating PAX Choice
– LBCs
– Flutters w/press
– More American Hammers
– Big Boy Sit-Ups
– Merkins (debatable as MARY but done nonetheless)

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel Men’s Shelter Dinner signup, Stuff the Bus coming up (volunteers needed & 2.0 friendly), HIM Camp spots still needing to be filled (weekend of 8/12),

COT: Praises to QT bathrooms & for Rebound making it back for COT… Prayers for all in need, both spoken & unspoken.

Running Street Jackson

Tried to make a pun on an Outkast song lyric “I’m sorry Ms. Jackson” by saying “We’re running street Jackson.” But much like running Jackson Street, it wasn’t funny. (Although I laughed)

Ran for a mile
Core work for the 6
5 burpees
10 hand release merkins
16 split squats (8 each leg)

Rinse and Repeat

Keep after it. Awesome to see guys that don’t typically run 3+ miles in the gloom crush it today.

7-17-2023 Simple

All veterans so quick disclaimer, run to back for 7 HR merkins, 17 morracan night clubs, and 23 SSHs. I decided last night to just keep it simple and use the date. Run to gravel lot, 7 squats, 17 overhead claps, and 23 seal jacks. Run to Toastery, 7 HR merkins, 17 MNCs, and 23 SSHs. Run to bank lot in front of Walmart.

I wanted to keep everyone somewhat together before turning loose the speedsters (Tesla, Fishy). Keeping with the date, did 7 bombjacks in bank lot, run down to traffic circle, 7 merkins, back up to bank lot. Repeat with 17, 20, and 23 reps. Pick up the 6 since time was almost up. Make our way back to COT with the same stops on the way back.

Pretty hot out in the gloom right now but I appreciate all the guys coming out and pushing it this morning. Thanks Badlands for the opportunity!
