People’s Q

I tried something a little different today and had a people’s Q. I started us off with a little warm up then <@U07E0KTT4BV> picked up the Stick as we moseyed to the front of the movie theater. I thought we were going to watch Naked Gun but he had other plans.

Round 1
30 Step-ups (15 each leg)
25 Merkins
15 Big Boys

Round 2
30 Step-ups (15 each leg)
25 CDD
15 Big Boys

Round 3
30 Step-ups (15 each leg)
15 Hand Release Merkins
15 Big Boys

Next up was <@U08N6B7B3EF>

Group A performed Shoulder Taps while Group B army crawled for about 5 yards, then Bear Crawled for about 10 yards then sprint 25yards and back. Gross A & B switched. This went on for 3 rounds.

Next <@U067RCH0EPJ> took us over to the lower parking lot. We saw a couple of cop cars and we thought Unstable Vagina left his post to come workout with us but we were mistaken, it wasn’t him. <@U067RCH0EPJ> mapped out 4 corners of fun.
Corner 1 – 25 LBCs
Corner 2 – 25 Mike Tyson’s
Corner 3 – 25 Squats
Corner 4 – 25 American Hammers
We started in the middle of the 4 corners with a buy in of 1 Burpee then picked a corner then back to the center for a Burpee. Repeating until all 4 corner were hit.

Since we already had the 4 corners mapped out YHC picked up the stick for an Escalator.
Corner 1 – 10 SSHs
Corner 2 – 10 SSHs 25 CDD
Corner 3 – 10 SSHs 25 CDD 30 Squats
Corner 4 – 10 SSHs 25 CDD 30 Squats 40 LBCs

We moseyed back to COT in time to Al Gore it out for 30 seconds.

Do The Work – Get Sore

WARMUP: Run almost 2 parking lot laps then circle up at the base of the hill at the entrance of the school property.
Typical warm culprits: SSH, Merkins, Squats, Wind Mills
THE THANG:
50% effort run to the stop sign at Whites Rd, 25 Merkins
Run back to the start, 20 Squats
75% effort run to stop sign, 15 Carolina Dry Docks
Run back to the start, 10 Jump Squats
100% effort run to the stop sign, 5 Diamond Merkins

Mosey past the start and continue to the parking lot adjacent to the stadium entrance for a bear crawl accumulator.
Bear crawl 3 parking lot spaces then 2 Carolina Dry Docks
Bear crawl another 3 spaces then 3 CDDs.
Bear crawl another 3 spaces then 4 CDDs.
Continue the trend until the end of the lot.
3/4 of the way through this evolution, I was reminded of a message that has been ringing in my head frequently. I shared this with the PAX:
“Everybody wants to be strong but nobody wants to be sore.”
This is a reference to wanting the hardship to pass while reaping the rewards of the finish product. As we all know, growth happens in the journey, long before you reach the finish line. Embrace the soreness.

Now, crawl bear back to the starting line then make our way to the goal line on the football field. We’ll be performing a modified “corners” evolution.
10 Flutter Kicks I/C, Run across the field to the other side of the same goal line for 10 Flutter Kicks I/C, Run 100yds to the other goal line but on the same side of the field for 10 Flutter Kicks I/C then across the field for 10 more Flutter Kicks I/C.
Now, run to the 20yd line and execute the same evolution while performing 10 American Hammers I/C at the stops.
Now, run to the 40yd line with 10 LBCs at the corners.
Make our way back to the start for a 100yd sprint then a 100yd NUR back.
Make our way back to the parking lot and run back to COT with a few stops for a Merkin variety along the way.
Lastly, 1min elbow plank hold.
Remember, don’t shy away from doing the hard work in life and embracing the soreness. Additionally, don’t assume you’ll get a fresh start to tackle a challenge because after all, nobody cares what you can do fresh.

MARY: Integrated throughout

COT: For Sure

COT:
https://f3nation.com/get-right is never over because “The Time is Always Now.”

If something isn’t solid in your world, what are you gonna do about it? The time is now.
Put aside your ego, doubts, fears, worry, hesitations, past, limiting beliefs, and get started. The time is now.
You know what needs to be done. Gentlemen, the time is now.

“There is never a time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge
is in the moment, the time is always now.”
—James Baldwin

Grateful to share the gloom with you this morning
