Traditional Bootcamp

WARMUP:

In moderate pace, side squats to field, then moving side straddle hops, bear crawl, seal jacks, crabwalk, press jacks, then repeat flight backwards to parking lot fence.

THE THANG:

We completed 7 flights of 5 themed exercises in each flight of plyometrics, mixed martial arts, cardo-broga, dirt dog, and lower body followed by a few minutes of ballistic stretches to close.

There was no running, no burpees, and no merkins which was intentional as it seems a down and dirty bootcamp is non-existent these days…so, I led one.:beargryllz:

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

12th anniversary of The Fort on 9/30 at WEP.

COT:

Prayers for intervention of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit into our lives as well as healing for Pax specific relative maladies.

2024.37 Kitchen Sink

WARMUP:
Move wights into place…

THE THANG:
9/11 Memorial workout simulating 110 + roof (111) stair climb with sandbags and a parking lot with 37 spaces (373==11).

Split PAX into two teams for North and South Tower. Split teams into three groups each. At one end of parking lot (base of buildings) one group on each team will be performing KB lifts of their choosing (stipulation was to touch ground and then go over head, but that got lost in translation). One group will be performing burpees at each parking spot (or floor). One group will be carrying sandbags in between to relieve the other two groups.

As sandbag group relieves burpee group, he will proceed to the next available floor. (If he drops sandbag off at floor 25 while 25, 26, and 27 are doing burpees, he goes to 28.) There is an added mental exercise to count how many burpees/lifts you performed, and add that number to the number given to you associated with the bag you are carrying.

Demo: To start, floor 1, 2, and 3 will start with a bag and do that many burpees to preload the bag. Floor 1 will then run the bag to the lifters and hand it to the next available person. Lifter takes bag with 1, adds his lifts number (lets say 5) to 1. He then takes the sandbag, runs and hands it to burpee group at floor 4, tells him bag has 6 and runs to floor 7 to commence burpees. The man on floor 4 adds his burpee number (lets say 6) to the bag , runs, and hands it to the next available lifter and tells him the bag has 12.

Repeat until burpees have been performed at ever floor.

Run that back 3 times. (We got through 2… next time.)

COT:
Quick reminder that we will take for granted more than we will ever hope to contribute. We stand on the shoulders of giants and it was undeniably visceral on 9/11/2001 when we saw so many risk everything to help their brothers and sisters in need.

There’s two ways to make a living in this world… exploit systems or create value. I hope you get a chance at the latter. A rising tide lifts all boats.
