Get things done. Zero snark.

WARMUP: big loop around parking lot, SSH, windmills, cherry picker, low slow squat, slow merkins.
THE THANG: ran to the elementary school parking lot on the left. Ran from one side of the parking lot to the other 4x. At each side of the parking lot, we did: 25 merkins, 25 squats, 25 four count flutters – so a total of 100 plus running back and forth.

Round 2 was on the other side of the school on the basketball court running back and forth on the court.

25 CDD, 25 lunges (single count), 25 Freddy mercury (double count) – all times 4 for 100.

Round 3 top of the hill by the pull up bars. Just 2 sets. Merkins were 8 each of diamonds, ranger, wide arm; then calf raises 8 each of in, regular, and out. Last was 24 LBCs. Run to cinder blocks but do 1 pull up at each bar on the way there, then do merkins, calf raises, LBCs again. Then pull ups at each bar again.
MARY: a few rounds of Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS: short and sweet
COT: completed

OTB Acceleration project…you get the idea

WARMUP: ran over to footloose lot for warmup and introduced first 2 q source foundations. 1. Disruption 2. Language
THE THANG: Ran to church parking lot at the bottom of the hill where we talked about foundation #3: group (which is what our little workout group is).

Crab cakes was then nice enough to relive the glory days with his infamous rugby sprints (which he led) and exercises. So an oldie but a goodie. He led this for about 10 min and then as if this was tee’d up transitioned the lead to Libbity Bibbity. YHC took the opportunity to talk about foundation #4: LDP. LDP is about great leaders developing new leaders.

LB took a few rounds, then handed off to Sprocket for the same lead on a few rounds.

YHC took the q back and led the group to every set of stairs he could find in a 1/4 mile radius, give or take, which is 3 different sets. A little bit of Mary and stretching as we waited for the 6, then headed back to COT.
MARY: Twister broke out his gas pumper.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: yes, but kept this short
COT: YHC covered foundation #5: Preparedness. Remember that we are an organization OF leaders rather than an organization WITH leaders.

THE THANG:
A little smorgasbord. Initial bulk was laps around the front of the middle school with:

next lap
5 burpees and 10 bombjacks
Then we went backwards so the speed bumps were closer and reverse bear crawled up the hill from the lowest point.

Stopped for some People’s Chair
While we were at the wall we did BTTW with upside down shoulder taps and merkins in cadence

Went to the teacher parking lot in the back and did a long bear crawl. Then some Lt. Dan’s

Hit the elementary playground for some pull-ups and burpees. Tried to work in a partner balance and one handed hanging on the bar, but
it was a smashing failure. So, we ran back towards COT and stopped for Bulgarian Split Squats along the way.
