King of the Ring – Round 2 – The Rocket Burner

Leave a comment

Ring of Fire – King of the Ring Challenge
Round 2 – Previous Kings are Q
Oh the humidity was cranked up!! Soupy swampy hot. ZERO breeze. Excellent mumblechatter in COT while we all stretched out. Senator Tressel came in hot, but caught up to us on the warmup run. 13 dawgs let loose!!

Warmup:
Slow run loop around the parking lot, approx. 400-500m, then circle up near COT for the following:
– 20 SSH
– 10 WM
– 15 MNC
– 15 IW
– 10 Strawberry pickers

Then mosey over to the USMC JROTC building, roadway near the sidewalk to the pull-up bars for…..

THE THANG:
The Rocket Burner Circuit
Setup: 5 stations, each with an exercise. Some have modes of transportation listed to get to the next station. PAX are to grab 2 cinder blocks from storage and put them on the roadway near the sidewalk to the pull up bars. Then get after it. Cones were used to mark station locations. Station 1 was at the pull-up bars, station 2 was at the roadway, beginning of sidewalk to pull-up bars, station 3 was along the roadway, towards A.O. Jones, approx. 5-60 yds away, station 4 was same location as station 2, station 5 was at bottom of hill at stop sign. That is the circuit.
Do the work. No music, just work. Once all stations are done, scoring of one round is once you return to station 1 to start over. King is the one who does the most rounds.
Stations and MoT are:
1. 5 pull-ups, frolick (walk, skip, whatever) to #2
2. With one cindy, 15 overhead presses, then farmer’s carry BOTH blocks to #3
3. With one cindy, 15 curls, then farmer’s carry BOTH blocks to #4
4. With BOTH cindies, 15 deadlift into calf raise. Full up, full down. Then no more cindies. Run downhill to #5.
5. 5 burpees, 20 lunges (10 ea leg), 25 LBC. Run uphill to #1
6. That is one round
7. Repeat

WINNER IS: BAND CAMP!! He was a machine, cranking out almost 6 full rounds (or was it 6 full, started on 7th?). Harry Carry was hot on his heels. Everyone cranked out at least 3. I got 4 full, started on 5th, but threw in the towel after pull-ups. A lot of excellent mumblechatter and push/pull from each PAX. Guys were REALLY going after it, pushing hard. No cinder blocks were harmed, too. :blush:

Stored the cindies just in time to get back to COT right at 6.

MARY: None

Announcements: The Barry is coming!! Read your newsletter, get involved!!

COT: A lot of P&P lifted. Do not carry it all inside.

Cake Boss came up with a GREAT idea with this King of the Ring challenge. Looking forward to the next rounds!! BRING IT!!!

Thank you for the opportunity to lead. Blessings and SYITG.

Thrillmas In July

Leave a comment

Twas the day after the 4th and all through the Yard not a creature was stirring except 7 pax who wanted to work out hard.

Drop Thrill was on Q and had a devious plan. There was too much shoulder work for Ruby to stand.

On Grogu on Ruby on Float Bridge on Harry, on Dojo on Rumbling Bald things are getting quite scary!

The Pax were quite quick and just in time, finished the twelfth day and complained about burpees and boy did they whine.

Thrill being a wise old elf, finally let the pax breathe in spite of himself.

As he rode out of sight, the Pax swore they could hear him shout : Happy Thrillmas in July and to all, a good night!

1-run
2- Wide Arm Merkins
3-Jump squats
4-LBCs
5-Diamond merkins
6-Imperial walkers
7-Rosalitas
8-Slow flutters
9-Low slow squats
10-Lunges (10 each leg)
11-Merkins
12-Burpees

I told you there was an awning

Leave a comment

It was a dark and stormy morning and all the pax of the Fort made their decisions, the red pill or the blue pill.

Most fartsacked.

YHC was prepared for the elements and taylored a workout accordingly. We first went and saved a Cindy from the rain and took her up to the awning at NaFo’s bus drop off. Then, the music was set (Octane Workouts) and the cards were shuffled.

Deck if cards where drawn and reps were done.
:heart: = overhead press
:clubs: = curl
:spades: = squat with block
:diamonds:= Merkin
:black_joker:= 10 burpees (there were 4 in the deck)

After starting with a bunch of :diamonds: we knew it was going to get spicy at the end with :heart:.

There were also lots of spectators this morning as the basketball, football and track teams were going somewhere or doing something. I’m pretty sure they thought us old men were crazy.

Finished with some Marry and took Cindy back home.

Rain and lightning doesn’t have to stop you. Like they say, it’s only bad weather if you have bad gear, or don’t use your resources 😉
