THE THANG:

Plank for intro:

1st Lt. Ashley White was a member of the Cultural Support Team (CST), an elite group of female soldiers who worked alongside Army Rangers and Special Operations Forces in Afghanistan. She gave her life on October 22, 2011, when an IED detonated during combat operations in Kandahar Province.
Lt. White was a trailblazer, proving that toughness and courage aren’t bound by gender. She volunteered for a dangerous role, embedded with Special Ops, because she believed in the mission and in supporting her brothers in arms. Her sacrifice embodies selflessness, service, and grit.

The Sheldon Cooper

Leave a comment

I picked up the substitute Q stick from <@UN6PTD007> as he’s DR this week and he picked up one of mine from a few weeks ago.

WARMUP: Mosey over to the track. The obligatory SSH, Morrocan nightclubs, windmills

THE THANG: The Sheldon Cooper. 10 rounds of descending reps. Run a lap around the track, perform 10 burpees, 10 squats, 10 merkins and 10 big boys. Continue this pattern and decrease your rep count by one after each lap.

This was intentionally chosen so that each pax could push themselves as hard as they could, regardless of the pax around them. This provided some good fellowship for a few and the ability to go hard for others.

MARY: Planks and Peter Parkers

ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2D, Jaeger, Convergence. Read the Newsletter

COT: Prayers for new job opportunities, health, and healing.

Q School at RoF – Leadership

Leave a comment

YHC was honored to lead the Pax at Q School at Ring of Fire. T-claps to Cake Boss for leading this monthly event in an effort to standardize the Q across the region. While well suited for FNGs as part of the onboarding for the Fort, Q School represents an opportunity for all Pax as being the Q represents a leadership opportunity and leadership requires practice.

WARMUP:
After reviewing this disclaimer, YHC instructed the Pax on leading as a Q as part of the responsibility to positively influence himself and others. Within this responsibility lies trust that the Pax will follow the Q until the he leads them beyond reason until an unsafe environment or without proper instruction.

Mosey to NaFo band lot for COT and review of cadence counting
SSH x 20
Mtn x 20
IW x 10
CDD x 10
MNC x 10
Merkins x 10

THE THANG:
The next discussion focused on preparedness as a Q and focused on the following:
– Reading backblasts
– Simple in design
– Scalable
– Challening effort across all fitness levels

Mosey to end of the lot for “lazier Dora” which included an explanation on Dora from Harry Caray.

Partner Up
100 merkins alternating by 10 while other partner holds plank
Run to flag pole and back
200 Squats alternating by 20 while other partner holds Al Gore
Run to flag pole and back

Run to flag pole and back

Next up a discussion on Vision and Articulation and a reference to Exhortation.

MARY:

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
