Training Ground Carry

WARMUP: Nope
THE THANG: 6 PAX shared (3) 60lb sand bags while the 7th man nursed an injury while wearing a weight vest, of course.
Make our way over to the WEP parking lot and down the trail weaving our way to the bottom of Harris Street. Here’s where we tried something new. Each PAX would have the “opportunity” to single-handed farmers carry the 60lb sand bag up to the top of the hill.
From there, make our way over to the bottom of Massey for…you guessed it, walking backward up Masses. Every PAX went 2x.
MARY: Not officially but tighten your core during the carries.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Give blood.
COT: 5th Core Principle.

Back in the Saddle

Woke upon 1/1 feeling healthy so I decided to just jump back in and take the Q at my home away from home.

Warmup was pretty basic

SSH
Windmill
Seal jacks
IW
Michael Phelps
Mount Climbers

Mosey to the hills past the apt complex.

Pendulum routine.

One side of the hills start at 20 reps then decrease by 4 each lap thereafter.

Werkins
Lunges
Flutters
Plank jacks

Run to the other side stopping in the middle for a squat… which increases by 1 rep each trip.

Other side start at20 reps decrease by 4 each lap

Diamond merkins
Calf raises
BBS
Shoulder Taps

Everyone got through it all with just enough time to get back to COT.

Thanks to all who showed. It was great getting back out there. Don’t take it for granted men. Being able to get out there and work is invaluable to your mental health as much as it is to your physical health.

See y’all out there!

NMM
This morning was what I needed. We may not have pushed as hard as we could, but we made time for conversation and laughs. We have what so many men don’t – friends, fellowship, and an outlet that allows for fun before we have to get corporate and serious. We might as well have been middle schoolers in gym glass today. Stories, laughs, a little work, but a lot of fun.

We talked about the joys and perils of the season. We’ve reached the part in the year between Christmas and New Year’s where we’re not sure what day it is. We’ve probably gained a pound or five and we’re starting to adjust to the extra volume of things and noise in our homes.

But, be aware with increased time with loved ones, patience can wear thin and tempers can flare. Step back, take a breath, and watch your tongue. We cannot underestimate the impact we have on our families as present dads.

I encourage you to keep this going through the new year. Fun is the secret ingredient to great fatherhood.

Aye!
IJ
