Q-Fusion

Leave a comment

A litte Q-fusion this morning at <#C02PK4V7WLV>. I noticed several Pax running around the AO before kick-off time. Most getting some extra miles before the Dam to Dam relay. I noticed <@U5Y5JA02G> running and I thought I had seen his name of the Q Line-up for the Catawba Ridge AO (whatever the new name is).
After clearing up the Q-Fusion, we started with a mosey around the parking lot. We stopped a few times for Toy Soldiers, Butt Kickers, and Knees to Chest. we made our way to the band parking lot for the first phase:
– Bear crawl out to 10, 2 burpees, crawl bear back to start
– Bear crawl out to 20, 4 burpees, crawl bear back to start
– Bear crawl out to 30, 6 burpees, crawl bear back to start
– Bear crawl out to 40, 8 burpees, crawl bear back to start
– Bear crawl out to 50, 10 burpees, run back to start

Next, same markers, except run out, 10 SSH (+10 each marker), Nur back to start.
Last set, same marker, run, 10 squats, nur back to start.

Next, we moseyed to pull-up bars. 5s – 1 pull up, 4 squat thrusters, increase pulls +1, decrease squats -1
Rinse and Repeat
Finished off with a Jack Webb

Good to see some new faces. we had a out of town visitor and a Kotter.
Great job guys

Change is the Game

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Cold morning required a warm up session for the Q so the rest of the pax got the same
THE THANG: Mosey to basketball court on far side of school. Stopped on way at picnic tables for some step-ups and dips (3 rounds). The routine at the court involved 2 laps of yogging followed by a round of 3 core exercises followed by one set of suicides. We rinsed and repeated for a total of 3 full cycles of this routine. Then moseyed back to launch.
MARY: She joined throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Break the Dam, trash pickup
COT: Some quick departures shrunk the COT crowd. We identified Honky Tonk and Sugar Bug as Ballroom regulars we hadn’t seen recently. One pax committed to reach out to each for a check in.

Throughout the Thang, pax traded experience regarding how change has impacted their life and whether they felt the rate of life changes was accelerating as they age or slowing. General agreement was that the volume and rate of change GROWS as we age. A comment was made about the rate of change vs EXPECTATIONS. Q Source says we prepare for what’s expected so that we’re in the best position possible to respond for the inevitable times when unexpected change will come our way.

My experience and study on life change indicates we go through many cycles and each one reflects three stages: an ending to the current reality, an uncomfortable in between period, then a new beginning. Moving past the “ending” that is really the start of change often requires a “letting go”….maybe even a grieving period. What do you need to let go of so you can move forward?

Grateful to Bass for the Q invite and the very timely reminder at Flight Plan Mon morning. Also grateful for the covey of Respectable HIM who posted to help sharpen me. May God continue to bless The Fort!
