WARMUP: Some SSH, Windmills, Moroccan Night Clubs, Imperial Walkers & Hillbilly Walkers

THE THANG:

Mosey over to the side of Harris Teeter and use there giant wall for a little work. Everyone grabbed a seat against it and had a 10 count waterfall kick us off down the line. We followed this up by a plank series with our feet on the wall (parallel, 45 degrees & B2W) 10 count at each. It was all so much fun we did it again.

Mosey back to the parking lot and completed a round of solo DORA style work. 100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC. Run to the end of the lot and back whenever you were unable to continue or at least ever 1/4 of the set.

Once this was completed we continued to a board of pain for the final 10 minutes. Exercises were completed by all with a PAX in the center of the circle being the timer completing 10 man makers with a toss of the 30lb sandbag over the shoulder each time. We got through:

-Donkey Kicks
-Mountain Climbers
-SSH
-Flutter
-Plank Jack
-High Knees
-Lunges

Q3.10 Consistency
Why do complex men often lead simple lives?
Simplicity is the foundation of consistency. A virtuous leader simplifies the aspects of his life that are under his direct control – put as much on auto pilot as possible.

THE THANG:
Ran to the playground and did a form of 21-gun salute.
21-gun salute:
* Run a lap
* 21 Merkins
* 21 Hillbilly Squats
* 21 LBCs IC
* 21 MCs IC
* 21 American hammers IC
How can a man keep from going off the rails?
Strong routines are the framework for consistency. A brick is a singular positive habit that is advantageous to the individual. Several bricks together form a routine and create the basis for a Guardrail. Guardrails protect the man from the Flux.

Ran to rear parking lot of elementary school, shoulder taps for the 6.
PAX agreed to do the next sequence in descending order, so we did all of the exercises listed below, ran a lap aroudn the parking lot, and then removed the exercise with the most reps before repeating the list. All reps were completed.
1 burpee
2 bomb jacks
3 merkins
4 jumping lunges (2 each leg)
5 Bobby Hurley’s
6 Sumo squats
7 Carolina Dry Docks
8 lunges (4 each leg)
9 monkey humpers
10 squats
How can a man learn to be more consistent?
The Virtuous Leader focuses on bandwidth, not perfection. There will always be fluctuation. Knowing this, the Virtuous Leader Accelerates his Consistency by focusing on the bandwidth of his fluctuation rather than perfection. His objective is to reduce the distance between his peaks and valleys to something so small that only he can see it.

WARMUP: SSH, IW, HW, Shoulder Tap, MC, Peter Parker’s, yoga

THE THANG: Mosey around and hit some BLIMPS
5 burpees
10 lunges
15 Imperial Walkers
20 Merkins
25 Plank Jacks
30 Squats (sometimes Bulgarian Split Squats when we found picnic tables)

MARY: a bit of core interspersed, but not much. Quack Attack would not have approved

NMM: every PAX shared their biggest work failures. Grateful to hear how successful men have messed up. Even the “goo” culture shares our successes, but sharing our failures keeps us from feeling so alone when we screw up. Thanks to everyone for their vulnerability. As IJ said in COT, a failure is just a waypoint to someplace better. Let’s stay after it.

WARMUP:
– Mosey the track loop around Runde Park
– Peter Parker x10 cadence
– Merkin x10 cadence
– Windmill x10 cadence

THE THANG:
Part 1:
– Separate into 2 groups. One group starts at YHC’s truck and the other group starts at the batting cages

– Each station will have two sets of exercises. The first exercise will be done when the count is and odd number and the second exercise will be done on the even number.

Batting cage:
– Wall paver stones native to the AO. The general consensus was that they weighed about 70lbs.
– Odd: Bent-over Rows
– Even: Squats holding the massive paver

Truck:
– “Hell Pavers” as previously labeled by Dark Helmet. Equivalent to a cinder block but more compact.
– Odd: Curls
– Even: Overhead Press

Rd 1: 15 count of the Odd exercise at the station your group started with. Then run to the other station and do a 15 count of the Odd exercise for that station.
Rd 2: 14 count of the Even exercise at the station your group started with. Then run to the other station and do a 14 count of the Even exercise for that station.
– Continue decreasing the count as you complete the exercises.
– We called it after the 7 count to be sure we had sufficient time for Part 2.

Part 2: Half-Pipe
– Ran to the bottom of the big hill. Once there we were nicely positioned at the bottom of 2 hills on either side of us….like a half-pipe.
– The moderate hill had 5 cones positioned moving up the hill. And the steep hill had spots marked with duct tape at various points up the hill with the last one at the top.

How the half-pipe works:
– Run to the first cone on the moderate hill. Complete 2 merkins. It was called out that if you were not matching Funhouse’s form, then you were doing it wrong.
– Run back to the bottom and up to the first marker on the big hill. Complete 2 burpees.
– Run back to the first cone on the moderate hill and complete 2 merkins. Continue to the second cone and complete 4 merkins. Run back to the first cone and complete 2 merkins facing the way you are running. This makes them derkins.
– Run to the first marker on the big hill and complete 2 burpees. Run to the second marker and complete 4 burpees. Run back to the first marker and complete 2 burpees facing downhill. Coming up on those while facing the downhill sucks on the legs!
– Continue the series for the 5 stations on each of the hills.
