Adequacy in Question

Kermit was not having the thought of a Clemson party at the Hive, so he came decked out in his Vols gear to represent. One would say he was adequate in his preparedness. Although his attire was the wrong color of orange, YHC would say…

Wegmans and I are currently doing a workout program, complete with exercise movements that tend to make you scratch your head at how they are possible.

Each of us questioned our adequacy in attempting the below movements. Between each set we ran a quarter mile.

Core
• Landmine Wood Chop x 36 (18 ea side)
•  Single-Arm Overhead Sit-Up x 60 – 30 ea side
• Deadlift x 40

Lower
• KB Goblet Squats x 40
• Calf Raises x 50
• OH KB Squat x 40

Upper
• Half-Kneeling Single-Arm Landmine Press x 48 – 24 per side
• One armed KB Row x 48 – 24 per side
• KB Chest Press x 20

Core 2
KB Side Bends x 40 – 20 per side
• KB Straight Leg Sit-Up X 40
• KB Deadlift x 16

At the end of it all, layers were shed and sweat was dripping. Solid work by all involved.

COT was good. Prayer requests spoken and prayed together. Show up next time to be part of it.

Thanks Airborne for the final Friday of the year!!

Punch List out.

Olaf’s prayer hit me right between the eyes. He dropped a timely prayer request after a weekend of distracted parenting. How much presence would my kids perceive that I give, if I asked them? Am I giving them all of me, or only some of me?

Thanks for the tap today, Badlands.

Let’s Try That Again…

After double booking a few weeks back… River Rat was able to get me back on the schedule to continue Rucktober into November… Ruckvember? The truck was loaded down with coupons, and we showed up on time. Check, check.

Now it’s time to work. We grabbed a few sandbags and one Jerry can and headed off into the gloom.

Iteration 1
Carry Coupon/Ruck up and down bleachers
10 Ruck Merkins
Switch Coupons, Rinse and Repeat
Ruck Lunges

Ruck around the track

Repeat with Squats, Coupon OH Press
Ruck another lap

Iteration 2
Coupon/Ruck CMIYC

There were three of us – so an improvisation was made. Drop rucks.

Pax 1 farmer carries two rucks, two other pax drop for 5 burpees. Up and sprint to Pax 1, swap position. Repeat for a lap. (Sprocket is faster than he looks, by the way!).

Grab two sandbags, no rucks. Pax 1/2 move forward while Pax 3 does 10 bomb jacks. Catch up/swap. Repeat for a lap.

Grabs rucks and sandbags. Pax 1/2 move forward with both while Pax 3 does 3 8-count body builders with ruck. Catch up/swap. Repeat for a lap.

Time was nearing expiration – so we headed back to COT.

Ended with 5 Ruck American Hammers IC.

Announcements
