Tour d’ Favorites

WARMUP: Run a bit in the Sweep parking lot then a few warm up exercises: 10 Lunges each leg, 10 Mountain Climbers I/C, 10 Carolina Dry Docks, 10 Mak Tar Jah
THE THANG: The "theme" this morning, albeit unspoken, was to run to a spot and do the work. In some cases, we'd repeat it and in others, it was a one-and-done. I know, novel idea.
Exit the lot, run to Dave Gibson and turn left onto Dave Gibson's, stopping at the bottom of the hill.

Carry the Load

10 men carried heavy things on a sweaty Wednesday morning at the Sink. Here’s what we did:

Warm-up

  • 10 Low Slow Squats (IC)
  • 10 Imperial Walkers (IC)
  • Front Fold Stretch
  • Side Stretch

Mosey to flag pole

The Thang
The PAX brought a ruck, sandbag, and kettlebell each for a large loop carry then exercise routine. It looked like this:

Round 1

  • Carry your ruck, bell, and sandbag for 1 lap followed by
  • 30 Calf Raises, 30 KB Swings, and 30 Merkins

Round 2

  • Carry 2 items for 2 laps followed by
  • 20 Curls, 20 Flutters w/ a Press, and 20 Squats

Round 3

  • Carry 1 item for 3 laps followed by
  • 10 Burpees, 10 Sit-up to Press, and 10 Bench Press

NMM
We often ask God to lighten our load, but sometimes He strengthens us by teaching us how to carry it. That looks like showing up when you’re tired. It means investing in others even when you see little results. It means leading when recognition is absent. It means remaining faithful to your mission instead of being fixated on measurable success.

Keep going, especially when it’s tough. The process is shaping you into a stronger man.
