Blame JWOW

Leave a comment

Honestly I was expecting low attendance so I was pleasantly surprised when I start seeing several cars rolling into WEP. JWOW sent me note mid week asking if I’d be willing to bring the junkyards on Saturday so I had to oblige him. After a quick disclaimer the PAX performed some basic warm-ups. Then we moseyed down the path to the bottom of the big grass hill. Split into 3 groups. G1 ran to end of path back toward parking lot and did 10 bomb-jacks. Return to start. G2 nurred up the grass hill, did 10 squats, then returned to start. G3 ran to end of path in other direction, did 10 bomb-jacks, then return to start. Rotate so each group did each section once. Yog down to Harris St park for the fun. I was trying to find decent grass so I thought the outfield would be safe. Partner up. P1 does 8 Junkyard dogs while P2 is alternating between high and low plank. Then partner push to other side, P2 does the JYDs then partner push back. JYDs are P1 does burpee, then dives under P2 whose holding high plank, then when P1 stands up P2 goes into low plank and P1 jump over. Simple but stupid. The plan was for 3 sets of 8 but after much chatter we went 8 ,6, then 4. I thought this spot was decent but apparently Slow Jams found the one massive fire ant hill and got about 100 bites.
Yog over to base of Harris St. Next movement was run up Harris St stopping at every other power pole for 10 merkins, 10 squats, and 10 froggers (deconstructed burpees). The plan was to do some more group work at church on top of hill but we were a little tight on time so started back to park. 5 bomb-backs, 5 seal-jacks, and 5 plank jacks at every other power pole. Few mins left for 2 all you got sprints up small hills in park. It was a super humid day so I wasn’t the only PAX looking like a sweaty mess at the end. Apparently the JYDs got a zero star review afterwards and I got a nice text from Spiderman calling me an asshole for spiking his heart rate by running up Harris St. So it was a great morning. Thanks for everyone that posted and thanks to JWOW for giving me the nod.

27th Badger of 2024

Leave a comment

16 at for the Clovis.

150 burpee pull-up
10 mile run
Partition as desired. We did 15 burpee-pull-ups and run 1 mile. Rinse and repeat

One of the simplest and hardest workouts. Nobody finished even half of it

– ’s shoulders have to bear the weight of his arms
– left early in protest
– wants to know if anyone’s finished that workout ever
– is crushing it. Keys to success: being a site Q
– we lost only to find him right at name-o-rama (introvert energy)
– didn’t ask if I wanted to carpool
– & batflipped to some Mary a tad early
– is ’s medical consult
– believes retribution will be had at his VQ on Friday
– took the over
– hardest working Gen Zer in the Fort?
– couldn’t be caught (by me at least) on the last mile

Listen, you could rub your overheating body against the ROTC building because the condensation on the outside wall is much cooler than the air temperature. But it still won’t make burpee pull-ups easy, nor will it verify this report better than , , or

But they’d have to check slack to make it happen….

“We must all suffer from one of two pains: The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is that discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.” John Rohn

Each day we have the option to take the daily red pill in an effort to get better. So many men live in regret wishing they would have taken care of their body in their younger years. So many men wish they would have found balance with their work and relationships. We are living the lives they wish they would have. We have the opportunity every day to build the legacy for our children. We can either be their example to follow or the motivating factor to break the cycle.

Keep pushing. Your kids are watching.

Aye!

3 Lessons of Marcus Aurelius

Leave a comment

WARMUP: off to Kimbrell’s after being disclaimed. PAX did LSS, Windmills (approved by Trucker), imperial walkers, hillbilly walkers and 50 side straddle hops – with a declining number of burpees (not approved by Trucker) in between exercises. From there – Mosey to Unity Presbyterian

THE THANG: lesson 1 – The happiness of your life correlated to the quality of your thoughts.
10 burpees followed by 7’s – Diamond merkins at the top of the driveway and squats at the bottom. Plank for the 6 or go get them.

Mosey to First Baptist for lesson 2

Lesson 2 – If you’re distressed by anything external, it is not due to the thing itself, but your estimate of it. And this you possess: the power to revoke it at any moment.

More 7’s – diamond Merkins at one end, run to the opposite end of the lot for squats and repeat until the sequence is complete.

Mosey to downtown Fort Mill on Main Street to find benches – 10 Bulgarian split squats each leg (for a notably absent Band Camp) and provide lesson 3

Lesson 3 – The best revenge is to be unlike the one who performed the injury.

Mosey to COT for a few AB exercises – but just a few – then 0600 was upon us.

MARY: See above
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Summer of CSAUPS
COT: 5th core principle

Thanks to Soup To Nuts for the call. Always grateful to post in the gloom with group of HIMs.

Honored,
Cyclops :eye:
