Bearded Brothers Beatdown

Leave a comment

WARMUP: 3/4 mile run to the dance studio with some monkey Humpers, burpees and squats along the way at various spots
THE THANG: Had a conversation with Rebound Monday after Flight Plan and found out he had the Q at Kitchen Sink that same day. So the beards got together and thought it would be a grand idea to combine both of our Q’s together for a great beat down. We launched from Harris Teeter in Tega Cay and made our way down to the little Dance studio which is about 3/4 of a mile. Kitchen sink boys where there standing in a circle not doing much of anything. So when we arrived the real work began. My workout was the timer while Rebound workout was the heavy lifting. Grab a partner from opposite group and get to work. One goes to other end of parking lot while other grinds it out with the sandbags.

Rebound had a board with various exercises which we made it through:
Overhead Press
Squats
Curls
Sandbag Swings (those really sucked)
Deadlifts
All where AMRAP

My part was:
Hand Release Merkins
Carolina Dry Docks
Sumo Squats
Big Boi Sit-ups

Start at 5 reps per then increase each round by 5 reps. Made it to 20 reps then we backed back down 5. It really started to suck big time. Lots of complaining about those merkins.
I’m sore as crap from this. It was a great workout.

MARY: Can we rename her to Meghan? We did Hello Dolly, Flutter Kicks and Dying Cockroach before COT
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Break The Dam on Feb. 28th. Ruck CSAUP middle of May get with Shady if interested
COT: Mental struggles. Kick life back when it kicks you in the nads.

WARMUP: Slow mosey around the Harris Teeter parking lot, circle up where Golden Corral flag used to be planted for the following (SWIMS):
– 25 SSH
– 10 winmills
– 15 imperial walkwers
– 15 MNC
– 10 strawberry pickers

Then mosey to the parking spots in front of Cholandu Indian restaurant….
THE THANG:
Part 1: 11s
Using the driveway between Cholandu and Dollar General as each end, do 11s with the following exercises
– Squats
– Lunges (2 ct, every other leg)
That got a mile or so in and worked the legs.
Original intent was to use the gravel hill off of Stockbridge drive that leads up to the large cell tower, but the pole light there was out. Next time…..

Part 2: 11 of 11
Mosey around back behind Red Bowl to the infamous dumpster.
11 exercise stations set up, each were 5 parking spaces apart. Do the exercise, bear crawl to the next station. Repeat until done. 11 reps of each exercise. Exercises were:
1. Merkins
2. LBC
3. SSH 4ct as usual
4. LSS
5. CDD
6. Flutter 2ct / every other leg
7. IW 4 ct as usual
8. LSS
9. Mtn Climbers 2 ct / every other leg
10. LBC
11. Lunges 2ct / every other leg
A LOT of bear crawling. Shoulders were smoked.
Gave us about 5 minutes left. We went to the Harris Teeter wall on the side of the building. Everyone in people’s chair. Hold it while first person runs across the parking area, does 2 burpees, then runs back. Next person in line follows until everyone is done. That gave us 1 minute to mosey back to arrive at COT right at 6. BOOM!!
MARY: None
ANNOUNCEMENTS: A LOT going on! Read the newsletter, get involved, and also be informed about what has been going on around The Fort.
COT: Alot lifted up. There are alot of injured PAX, and others not posting because they have burdens. Reach out to those guys. If they cannot work out, at least they can walk and enjoy the 2nd F to help with their 3rd F.

Thank you for the opportunity to lead.
