Flag Handoff at The Sink…..If you know what I mean?

Flag handoff from Maximus to Farmer’s Only.

WARMUP:
Warmed up with a lap around small loop and back to circle perform a few exercises to get familiar with the bags.

– Merkin (5-5-5 – Regular, Wide, Diamond)
– SB Toss (10)
– SB Shoulder to Shoulder (10)
– Deadlift (10)
– Manmaker (5)

THE THANG:
Partner up. DORA. One partner carries, One partner exercises. 50 reps for each exercise.

1 – Suitcase Carry/Overhead Press
2 – Shoulder Carry/Lunges
3 – Back Carry/Flutters w/ Press
4 – Overhead Carry/Rows
5 – Zercher Carry/Cleans
6 – Bear Carry/Curls

Everyone went through once at 50 reps each exercise. Some began making way back through before all PAX drop the exercise portion and began making way down the list completing just the carry. Stopped with about 10 mins left for next activity.

Next up, we piled all the sandbags up on one end and went back to the other side. PAX divided into two teams and one PAX at a time for each time raced down to the pile to retrieve a bag and bring it back to other side. All PAX take a turn and team that recovered the most weight at the end is the winner. Losers perform burpees.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Lots of CSAUP opportunities this Summer. July 4th convergence.

COT:
Flag Handoff. Congrats Farmer’s Only.

More Than A Few Miles

We had 5 PAX, 5 Rucks and 4 Sandbags (allowed for 1 man to rotate in/out).
WARMUP: Not really.
THE THANG: Transport all the gear to the circle in the NE corner of Kingsley. Rucks only – lunge walk around the circle.
Transport all gear to the traffic light to our east for 10 lifts with either Ruck & Sandbag or Ruck-Only.
Shuffle with all gear back to the circle and regroup.
Ruck with all gear to the SE corner of the big parking on the other end of Kingsley.
Rucks only, 5 Man Makers and 10 LBC’s in each corner while shuffling between corners.
This is where the modification entered as I was losing track of time so we had to fast-forward through some of the Weinke.
All gear to the “stage” next to Carolina Ale House.
With all the gear in a pile, each man lined up 2′ apart, facing opposite directions. Starting at one end, we’d pass each coupon from one man to another, utilizing core muscles until all gear was at the other end. We did this several times so every man got to experience the outer and inner posts.
Slick, bear crawl up the 10 steps then jog back to the start and repeat.
Move all gear back to the flag for some rowing.
5 Bent-Over Rows & 5 Upright Rows
Repeat 3 more times.
MARY: Mixed throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: MEMORIAL MURPH and other things.
COT: 5th Core Principle

Sink roulette deck of cards

17 eager and excited pax showed up. Some brought sand bags, some brought just their willing attitude which was quickly put on point upon the pile of sandbags awaiting them.

After a quick run around the parking lot, a few in cadence SSH, followed by burpees, and that repeated a few times, it was time for business.

Deck of cards was the game. Rules were simple. Follow the count on the card and suit to the key on the paper.

Here’s the extra kitchen sink rule: for the 4 cards laid out, 1 card was chosen by a pax to either pick red or black. If correct, follow the card suit/count. If incorrect, penalty was double the count.

All exercises were done with your sandbag.

– 2-7 diamonds manmaker
– 8-Ace diamonds squats
– 2-7 spades lunge
– 8-Ace spades merkins (just do regular merkins
– 2-7 clubs clean and press
– 8-Ace clubs flutter w/ a press
– 2-7 hearts chest press
– 8-Ace hearts curls
– Joker gear carry shuffle 100 yards and then 1 min sandbag toss over shoulder, 100 yard shuffle
– A few “breaks” were added which included some slick run cool downs and a few gear shuffles with no bag toss

For the record, there were some incorrect cards chosen which were a crowd favorite as you’d expect.
