After a SL pre-ruck, YHC was 1 minute late to start… No worries – this isn’t a GORUCK event, so no punishment, right? The plan today was to teach a few lessons about GORUCK events… and how to properly train.
We got the sandbags out of the truck and proceeded to the shovel flag location. Drop the sandbags, disclaim to the PAX, move.
Coupon Ruck 1 – all PAX who have not participated in a GORUCK event grab a sandbag and file in columns of two. Need to work on that two columns thing… the Cadre wouldn’t have what we were doing… halfway to destination have PAX swap coupons.
Iteration 1: 10 minute EMOM
20 Reps EMOM, repeat twice.
Ruck Squats
Ruck Merkins
Ruck Lunges
Ruck Sit-Ups
Ruck Bent Over Rows
Quick hit about events – it’s not the smoke sessions you need to worry about… it’s the time under weight and the miles. That’s where the bulk of your training should be. Also – sandbags are “comfortable.”
Coupon Ruck 2 – Head back to start point in same fashion as before, swapping coupons halfway
Iteration 2: 10 (really 9…) Minute AMRAP
10 Reps Each, in Order, Repeating As Many Rounds As Possible
Ruck Cleans
Ruck OH Press
Ruck Back Squat
Ruck Good Morning
Finished up just before 0600. Low squats to talk NMM.
NMM:
YHC is in the midst of infant #5. And I thought I’d have learned it all by now… wrong. What I have learned is that everything is just a phase… don’t miss it. Seriously. Don’t miss it. Because you will. Whatever season you’re in – cherish it. As the great philosopher Darius Rucker once said: “It won’t be like this for long.”
Thanks Tinsel for the opportunity.
