Monkey steals the peach

WARMUP: SSH, IW, CP… all IC, mosey to WEP Amphitheater

THE THANG:
Quick Overview of 7 Knife Attacks(pax hold Al Gore)
Pax get pool-noodle-“dagger” (pic below)
Get coupon from rock pile

• Hilt, Fist, Cut, Thrust, Slash, Drag, Fillet  (High Flyers Crush Steel Targets During Fieldwork…)
• Saber Grip vs. Filipino Grip (Thumb position) – discourage reverse/Ice-Pick grip
◦ Saber better for Fist+Hilt… Filipino better for Slash & cut (protects wrist angle)
◦ Reverse Good for Hook & Trap… but not today
• Basic Stance (reverse guard hand to protect hand tendons / protect carotid)

OFFENSE
1 1 Pax does coupon Overhead presses…. Other Carves Alphabet on his Torso
◦ Flapjack
2 All but 1 Pax Holds “Coupon Cross” circle Pose (linked by rocks)…. Last pax in center  practices targeting Carotids, Brachial, and Femoral
◦ After getting all pax, trade out to next man
◦ must hold coupons high enough for slasher to access Brachial arteries & spread legs enough for Femoral access (TWSS…)

DEFENSE: hold Al Gore again during instruction 

Pax practice this w/ EMOM; Indian run style attacks on same pax practice a single technique at a time

– 4 Burpees then try MEET …
– 10 Merkins then try PASS or FOLLOW
1 Meet: Slash at their hand on the way in (+ 2x force!)… – must use free hand to check his knife hand
2 Pass: Step away, but cut wrist AS he passes
3 Follow: Step away, but backhand cut AFTER he’s gone through

CHALK KILL CHALLENGE: Swap Noodles for Sidewalk Chalk
• NO STRIKING, GRAPPLING, OR “cuts” ABOVE THE NECK
• 30 sec. Goes…. Then # reps = # “cuts”
◦ Man Makers… SSH till 6 is up
• Repeat
5:50-ish: head back to COT

“Discipline is the blade that carves out greatness. You don’t rise to the occasion—you fall to your level of training.”

Bad Decisions on Gardenia

Leave a comment

Been a while since Q’ing and not in my best shape but felt like we all needed a kick in the teeth and had some bad ideas…

WARMUP: Sasquatch and YHC ran about 2.5 mile pre-run down Dave Gibson, past school, and up around Walmart.

THE THANG:
Head towards Gardenia hill in Baxter ~1.5miles…

Monkey humpers on 160 until a couple cars passed… maybe 20 IC

Every quarter mile stop for IC exercises that stacked….
merkins then add LBCs then add LSS then add SSH

At bottom of Gardenia come up with a lot of bad ideas….

all you got to the top then struggle through some IC SSH for the 6

Mosey to bottom

Nur back up to first light pole then IC SSH for 6

Bear crawl to next light pole then IC MNC for 6

All you got to the top then IC SSH for the 6

Return to COT with stops every quarter mile for stacked IC exercise

SSH then add LSS then add LBCs then add Merkins

MARY: IC IWs, IC Freddie’s, IC AHs

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Schweaty Barry 7PM July 22

COT: Yup

Bad things happen all the time – keep a positive attitude always and those around you will be better off
