Ring of Fire^ The Return of the Wheelbarrow

Leave a comment

Got the call from the #bullpen that @backdraft needed a “righty” to offer a proper beatdown. I waited for “Wild Thing” to blast through the speakers. *editors note: that didnt happen but 7 other men showed up.

Properly disclaimed and warned..err.. communicated what our plans were for the day. Everyone was excited (except @slash – but that is his own brand of excitement).

WARMUP: Dynamic warmup with #usualsuspects exercises and 100 yard mosey in between

THE THANG:
1. partner wheelbarrows/carries #crowdpleaser
2. Cindy Series: 2 lines of 4 PAX. P1: runner; P2: Cindy exercise; P3: Merkin, P4: AB or Leg. When runner returns- goes to back of line and everyone moves up a position. 3x rounds
3. Spring Series: 75%, 85%, 100%

COT: Closed out with Cash’s Prayer. Jay Griggs (F3 Cash) was a faithful member of F3 nation for many years and had many friends. He lost a prolonged battle with cancer not long ago. The Wednesday #AO at NAFO, originally named The Coop was renamed Ring of Fire in honor Jay.

At Jay’s funeral, a prayer was read that he lived by everyday. I often get to read this prayer at COTs but was especially meaningful today.

“Search me, Lord. Lead me to You. Help me to be a good man, a good father, a good husband and good employee. Help me to forgive and release from resentment those that I feel have offended me. Let me see the good in others and draw the goodness out of them.”

Remembering Columbine

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Mosey down to lower parking lot. toy soldiers and high knees around parking lot then mosey back to ROTC building for CoP.

CoP (IC)
20 SSH, 12 IW, 12 Cherry Pickers, 12 MNCs

THE THANG:
This workout was developed as a remembrance of the Columbine High School shooting victims from 23 years ago (4/20/1999). I was a freshman in high school about 40 minutes from Columbine and had friends there that day that were thankfully not physically injured.

Everyone grabbed a cindy…

Buy-in: 21 merkins. One for each wounded victim that survived that day.

Main Event:
To honor the 13 victims that died that day (12 students and 1 teacher) we did 13s.

13s – bent over rows with the cindy at the ROTC building, 8 count body builders at lower stop sign (start with 1 row and 12 body builders, increment one row and decrease one body builder each round, end with 12 rows and 1 body builder)

Before each round the name and age of one of the killed victims was announced.

SSH were completed at the end of each round until the 6 was in.

this brought us to 05:56

Finished off the workout with 25 chest presses with cindy (IC) and then 10 OH press with cindy (IC)

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Although tragedies continue to happen seemingly endlessly – raising kind, caring kids and being leaders in our community can make an impact on those around us. This impact can reduce or mitigate the impacts of the mental health issues that lead to some of these tradgedies. Keep up the great work and hopefully we never have to deal with anything close to what happened this day 23 years ago.

AKA continues tomorrow at Minnow Pond, Blood Drive May 12

COT: prayers for mental health, our kids, Ukraine
