Choose not to cheat 2.0

In preparation for my Q at Ballroom, YHC reviewed a previous backblast from 2018 where the theme was choosing not to cheat based on a book by Andy Stanley. In that workout, we discussed the idea of decision making and cheating based on prioritization.

YHC still suffers from poor decision making in spite of the clear model that Concentrica offers. It’s a life long battle that I need my faith and accountability from this group to support me in making improvements.

In keeping the same theme, the Pax were challenged not to cheat on the workout today with good form and group accountability.

The Thang

Mosey to football field

COP

SSH
Windmills
IW
CDD
MMC

Mosey to 50 yard line for a burpee starfish

Burpee ladder in the middle from 2-10 with exercises in the corners including:
Merkins
Mountain climbers
Squats
Bombjacks

in cadence

Ab Suicide

Starting from the end zone running 10 yards each time doing the following

5 Big Boys
10 Flutters
15 Freddy
20 hello dolly
25 LBCs

Finish with 5 burpees for preparation for the day

Mosey back to the flag

COT

Lots of prayers and praises
Reminder to pray, to be grateful and to breathe during stress

THE THANG: 3 runners ventured onto the roads while 4 ruckers moseyed thru FM Fartlek style, passing the lead baton for route and exercises. All got better.

Great to have Short Sale for his maiden voyage with Dawn Patrol and look fwd to seeing him back again.

Thanks for sharpening each other!
