Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey to pickup a few cones and headed around the back of the school, with some dynamic warmups (toy soldiers, karaoke) along the way. Stopping stop texting the parking lot in front of the school for some more warmups: SSH, Windmill, Merkins, SSH, Imperial Walkers all 10 count in cadence
THE THANG: Mosey to a corner of the band practice field (parking lot) and provided instruction:
– Burpee Broad Jump 40 yards, sprint to opposite end zone
– Bear crawl from sideline to sideline
– Lunge Walk 49 yards, sprint to opposite end zone
– Bear crawl from sideline to sideline
– Rinse and repeat (reduced burpee broad jumps to 20 yards)
– Rinse and repeat (reduced burpee broad jumps to 10 yards)
– Mosey to first cone for plank waterfall (each PAX completes a 10 count in succession – TapOut is apparently not learning how to count properly in school as his 10 counts last about 48 seconds
– Mosey to the second cone and complete a side plank waterfall (flip in the middle)
– mosey to school entrance looking for cameras to do some monkey humpers – no cameras..no monkey humpers, but we did use the benches for dips, Derkins, step ups and box jumps – all 10 count OYO
– Mosey to side of gym for wall sits and a few 10 counts (yep – TapOut can’t count at a normal speed) and burpees for good measure
-Mosey back to COT (returning the borrowed cones along the way) to run out the clock doing some Mary (flutters, weezie Jefferson’s, and the crowd fav: body destroyers)

MARY: see above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: poker, bourbon (?), and Christmas party (??) – just read the newsletter
COT: travel, world events, good decisions, new opportunities

Spanish Invasion comes to The Fort

Leave a comment

@Cohiba ran on Puerto Rican time today at #ao-varsity. This also explains why @Bobber chronically pushes past 0515 arrivals. There were a lot of words; many of us understood very few. Let’s not allow cultural differences to impede F3 being OPEN to ALL men.

@Cohiba likes Big Boys
@Bobber understands more than he says, but when he’s in cadence it’s sweetly melodic
@Jazz Hands has invisible Big Boys
@Bitcoin counts well in many languages, and also likes Big Boys
@Boogie Down didn’t translate much for us, but could have
@Saw Dust apparently went of some kind of rant in name-o-rama
@Cousin Eddie spent the entire time confused (as did YHC)
@Mark Twain said something like: “Me da cólera” about the DORA. I just hope it doesn’t turn into dysentery
@Retiree wondered what he’d stumbled upon, but his buddy @chickenhawk was there to guide the way
@SouptoNuts put his Criminal Justice degree to work. Just like he does every other day, by being a more educated human
@HarryCarry was there early for “Ironing Pants,” but I might have misheard that. @CakeBoss and @Shield were helping. When you have to carry something that harry (hairy?), I suppose you need help ironing your pants? :man-shrugging:

You could spend the whole day wondering if you’ll fit within a new environment, read up on the lexicon, ask guys about procedure, examine backblasts, and consider where your priorities really are. But if you don’t set that alarm and get out of the fart sack…well: “too mah-leh-teen!”

This report is subject to verificación by @Punch List….if he ever opens slack again to check all these notifications
The names should be above

WARMUP:

DH – transfer moving boxes from his 4Runner to PL’s truck. 5 burpees when you grab a box, 5 merkins when you drop it in the truck. Repeat until all boxes are moved.

PL – Pull up/Bobby Hurley 7’s + Active Recovery
Hold Al Gore for 1 minute, pulse 20 times.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead, HC.

Potpourri of Pain

Leave a comment

WARMUP: windmill, arm circles, merkins, mountain climbers
THE THANG: mosey to pull up bars.  5 sets – counts of 5,4,3,2 and 1 with 5 merkins in between each set of pull-ups.  Mosey back to parking lot and pick up coupons.  Form a line.  One person used the sand bag and performed 25 squats and functioned as the timer.  Remaining pax performed the following exercises:
Merkins
Dips
Carolina Dry Docks
Squats
Calf raises
Alternating lunges
Single Leg Deadlifts

After the above exercises were done, we took a lap, came back and changed coupon to the kettlebell. While one PAX performed 20 curls, remaining PAX worked through the exercise set listed above. Took another and came back to the wall for some air chair and balls to wall. Formed back on the line and did 100 yd sprints with 1 min of plank between each sprint.
MARY: 3 min of Ab work and finished with my hip exercises.
