FITS is on fire to trigger the alarm!

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Goal 1, get moving. Check. Goal 2, listen to feedback, then action. Check.

Started with short mosey to front of school to distance us from the sweet sounds of the school fire alarm which was the indicator FITS was in the house (or that the mother of all Clemsons had been dropped by Slash).

We did a big tour of the school stopping to do 2-3 exercises at each stop where the warmup turned into “the Thang”.  He was the warmup portion: windmills, low slow squat, cherry pickers, imperial walkers, merkins, down dogs, honeymooner, lunges, CDD.
THE THANG: Making our way to the back of the school, we stopped at the picnic table benches when HarryCarrey said “look benches”. #ListenAction

The benches offered us a stop for dips and Bulgarian squats. Not wanting to stay in one place, we vacated to the pull up bars where we did pull-ups, 30 second hang, knee to chest lifts from the bar. Next stop was in front of the elementary school at the bottom of the hill. 6 count burpees and jump squats.

Next stop, back of the school for more benches and Astro turf. More dips, CDD, team sit-ups, and laughter ensued single file leg lift throw downs. Good for those still on the turf, not so good for those that ran out of turf.

Next stop, almost off school grounds in the way back for: diamond merkins and BandCamp favorite, calf raises. And more low slow squats.

As we made our way back to COT, we paid homage to Al Gore and shoulder taps. Back up the hill when HarryCarry said “what about derkins” where stopped at the top for derkins, but not the kind HC wanted. #ListenAction. Partner up for 20 derkins where partner 1 planked and partner 2 put feet on partner one to perform derkins – swap after 20. Stopped at pull up bars for more pull ups and leg lifts before COT.
MARY: Circle up for rotating Mary before 0600.

Message: always with listening, there’s an action to be taken. Not everyone has to like the action or the decision to not take an action, but that’s leading. Indecisiveness leads to lack of trust and fear of failure. Failing faster leads to growth, practice, and learning to prepare better.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter, new 3rdF AO post the Wild at heart series.

Had these legs all my life

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, IW, HW, yoga, mosey
Humane Burpee – look it up

THE THANG:
Farmers Carry towards the school courtyard
Stop a few times along the way for 5 of each
Goblet Squat
Squat and Press (each side)
Good Morning
Single Leg Deadlift (each side)

Got to the courtyard. Bearcrawl with the bell stopping for one manmaker at each light

At the end, built up into a kettlebell flow with each arm;
Swing
Clean
Squat
Snatch
as we left we added an overhead lunge at the end.

Mixed and match how many times we did each side
MARY: one moment of core, but there was so much mumblechatter and very little work. So, we agreed to do four burpee snatches instead.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read your newsletter
COT: prayers for marriage, parents, travel, our nation

NMM: not sure why, but I need deadlines to get some things accomplished in my life. Set a deadline on when you’ll go on your next date with your M, or when you’ll do something with just you and your kiddos. Be proactive about it. I know I have to; otherwise it is relegated to a “someday” activity.

A privilege to lead

Webb-O-Rama

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
SSH x13 while we wait for Twister
Mosey to small Springs parking lot right off 160
SSH x20
IW x10
Windmills x10
Flutters x10
Mountain Climbers x10
Mosey to Millstone Park

THE THANG: Webb-O-Rama
4 cones set up along path heading from Millstone Park toward Main Street. On each cone were 2 exercises to be done in Jack Webb style (1:4 ratio)

Cone 1- 1 Burpee : 4 SSH
– >> Bear crawl to next station
Cone 2 – 1 Big boy sit up : 4 American Hammers
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 3 – 1 Knee tar N’Diaye : 4 Squats
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 4 – Traditional Jack Webb –
– >> Run down to Main Street then around to first station

Instead of doing all 10 reps at once, we broke it up into 3 rounds.
Round 1: 1-4
Round 2: 5-7
Round 3: 8 and 9 for cone 1, then just 8 for cones 2-4 since we ran out of time.

Total mileage clocked in at 2.7 miles.

Lots of mumble chatter about runaway Q-drenaline, prime number counting, Knee tar N’Diayes speed, Weinke timing, and murder.

Thanks Kermit for the opportunity to lead!
