WARMUP: River Rat led us in Side Straddle Hops and Windmills before taking off to the RV Lot
THE THANG:
Anchor Bar kicked things off:
Starfish routine with coupon:
5 Manmakers
Ex 1 – 30 Jump Squats
Ex 2 – 30 American Hammers – DC
Ex 3 – 30 Big Boy Sit-ups
Ex 4 – 30 overhead Flutter Kicks – DC
Return to the center after each exercise for 5 Manmakers.

Since Esso planned to use the same parking lot he went next.
6 groups of men and exercising in cadence while one group member plays with Cindy:
• Mountain climbers IC > 5 Cindy Manmakers
• SSH IC > 10 Cindy swings
• 6 ct burps IC > Cindy overhead carry
Message: Ignite your fire, use F3 as your fuel, let the fire spread. :fire:
Next Homer led us out the entrance to a brand new feature of the AO. Stairs to the overflow parking lot. There we had 4 coupons and they started with the 4 Qs then passed among the PAX on each trip up and down the stairs. Each PAX also stopped for 10 squats at the top and bottom portions.
Message: share your heavy burdens.
Lastly Bandcamp tookover the group:
Crawl Bear an uncomfortable distance to the starting point using some feature of the AO
4 corner transport:
Burpee Broad Jump
Bear Crawl
Lunge walk
Toss 12 sand bags over the shoulder
Rinse and Repeat
Keep going!

Message:
Who is it that we say we are?
If you get tired, learn to rest.
There is no quitting.
You don’t get to decide when you can stop.
Who is it that we show people we are?
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Homer came out victorious mainly due to votes received for use of AO. Thanks to all who participated in 1 or all 4 weeks. It was great to see some bonding between the regions through this event. Don’t be afraid to cross the river.

Fun with buckets

Leave a comment

Everyone loved my Q this past Friday. We had 3 buckets placed around the parking lot with various exercises to pick from each bucket. Many of you have struggled through it before. If you haven’t it truly is one of the more inventive and talked about workouts in the Fort. Just ask me about it next time. Really.

Somehow Anchorman was the hero as he managed to pick the one ticket that had only 2 burpees. Winner.

We had a great COT, with Spectre bringing his heart after the very long few weeks that he and his family have been through. If you’ve given them a thought or a prayer recently he is grateful.

Boogie Down can use some prayers dealing with some “Senioritis” (as we have been there) and props to Double D for this weekend’s wedding festivities. Sprocket’s excited about a 2.0 baptism and I’m traveling this weekend for the death of my stepfather. I’m sure there were others I’m missing. Safe travels for Peach Stand.

HWS 4/4/24

Leave a comment

Opened with a discussion about influencing others and not realizing the impact you have.

Men average 60000 thoughts per day. Often random and unconnected.

Discussed time spent alone with those random thoughts.

How often are you alone? Too little? Too much? Do you enjoy solitude? How long are you in solitude before it turns to loneliness?

Do you need more/less alone time?
What do you do to pass the time?

Great discussion this am. Thanks to those in attendance for their participation and engagement.

Hangin w/Stang is an awesome 2nd F event. Always good discussions. A fellowship WIN to start your Thursday each week.

Ruck up but not on your back

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey to include butt kickers, side shuffles, toy soldiers, side lunges.
THE THANG: As a group and with rucks overhead, traverse the large drop-off loop around the field and back to COT. When 1 PAX needs to drop the ruck for a break, all PAX do 10 overhead press.
This time going around the parking lot, walk with rucks in the position at the top of the upright row. When a PAX drops their ruck, all PAX do 10 uprights rows.
To the left side of the soccer fields. Bear crawl drag all the way to the fence on the other side, an estimated 150yds.
Partner up:
P1 farmer carries both rucks the width of the field while P2 does Peter Parkers until P1 returns. Flapjack.
P1 farmer carries again while P2 does something else…I forget. Flapjack.
Back to the parking lot:
10 Ruck Thrusters then run 25 yds slick
5 Merkins then nur back
5 Ruck Thrusters then run 25yds slick
10 Merkins then nur back
10 Ruck Thrusters
