What it is to be a Good Man

Leave a comment

WARMUP: In Cadence: Imperial Walkers, Cherry Pickers, Hillbilly Walkers & Windmills. Counted off.

THE THANG: Took off for a basic run and boot. 3.02 miles with stops along the way.
Pain Station stops included: merkins, squats, burpees, cocaine bear crawls, Carolina dry docks, jump squats, etc as we moseyed from COT to Dam Rd and back.

Many words were given and they all mattered and defined. From honest, accountable, virtuous, dependable etc all great words. There is no perfect definition but we should all be striving to make sure we are doing all we can to be a Good Man because the world badly needs Good Men. The words above that we do without thinking keep it up, those that we have to strive to do better at – keep working at it – the world needs GOOD MEN. You have 31 days to close 2025 and set the tone for 2026 – go be a Good Man!

MARY: Sprints, hot white speed sprints!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Announced, Fort fill free to edit – Rock Hill announcements pertinent to Fort is F3 in RH Christmas Parade this Friday Dec 5th – see me if you’d like to join. SLT Handoffs Jan 1st NYD Convergence.

COT: Prayers and praises and I prayed us out.

Thankful for the privilege to lead this workout.

Run, Do The Thing, Repeat

Leave a comment

After a prompting from Farmers Only (On Q elsewhere today), I decided to recycle a workout from last year.
WARMUP: No
THE THANG:
Run to a stop, do exercises, run to the next, etc…
The first 3 stops had 3 exercises at each stop.
The next 3 stops had 2 exercises at each stop.
The final 4 stops had 1 exercise at each stop.
The rep count was always 10 which in some cases, meant 5 each leg.
Total distance covered was ~3.6m.
MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: All the same + the formation of a BRR 2026 Slack Channel with more comm’s coming from Pusher.
COT: Oh absolutely. Strong.
