Switcheroo at Block Party

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Quick lap of the parking lot then windmills, squats, light stretching
THE THANG: As the newly appointed (and very temporary Site Q) we did a mozy out of the parking lot and hung multiple rights to get to the parking lot behind Hobos for some four corners.
Pax to complete all exercises at each corner then do a full lap around the parking lot before getting to the next corner. Corners broken out as:
– Upper body (20 reps each) Merkins, CDDs, Dips, Shoulder taps
– Lower body (20 reps) Calf raises, Bomb jacks, Squats, Monkey humpers
– Abs (20 reps) Big boy sit-ups, American hammers, Flutter circles, Box cutters
– Full body (20 reps) Burpees, SSH, Mike Tyson’s, Single-leg merkins

Mozy to the parking lot across from what used to be the Hardee’s. (Kimbrell’s) Pax planked up for 4 plank-jacks, Mountain climbers, Shoulder taps, Superman’s. Rinse and repeat for reps at 4, 8, 16, 32.

Since we were in downtown Fort Mill, we did a quick history lesson on why the town has its name. (We are located half way between a British fort built to protect the Catawba Indians and Webb’s Mill). In honor of the town’s founding in 1873, we did 18 Merkins then ran down to the bottom of Main Street for 73 SSH.

We had about 5 minutes left at that point, so we did a mozy back to COT.
MARY: About 2 minutes worth

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey to Kimbrell’s parking lot. The following exercises in candence with burpees in between.

Windmills
Cherry Pickers
Imperial Walkers
Hillbilly Walkers
Seal Jacks
Side Straddle Hops

THE THANG: Mosey to the site formerly known as Footloose

Lesson 1 – Treat the body rigorously so it does not fail the mind.

Partner DORA – 50 burpees, 100 squats, 150 flutter kicks

Mosey to the top of the hill at the parking lot on Monroe White for lesson 2.

Lesson 2 – You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

7’s in the lot – Burpees on one end, NUR to the other lunges on the opposite end. Note – Tesla is fast.

Mosey to Print Shop parking lot for LBC’s in cadence and rosalitas in cadence.

Mosey to the Millstone downtown. Touch the Millstone and do two burpees.

Mosey to the Parking Lot on Massey for Lesson 3

Lesson 3 – You should not give circumstances the power to rouse anger. For they do not care at all.

19 merkins of different types at each light pole.
This idea looked better on paper than in reality and the 559 bell rang while in the midst of attempting completion of these. PAX headed back to COT to make the 0600 deadline.

MARY: Was left at the Print Shop
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Many – read your newsletter

Berkshire Loop

Leave a comment

WARMUP: None – Not @ STL
THE THANG: Nine HIMs showed up ready to put in work for a Baxter-to-Berkshire loop beatdown. We took off on foot for the Berkshire loop, stopping at every stop sign to drop:
• 5 Jump Squats
• 5 Regular Squats
• 15 Merkins

:vertical_traffic_light:Those stop signs added up fast — and so did the burn.

We completed 3 total loops. The final lap brought a twist for YHC who called an audible and cut the reps to squeeze in that last lap. Strong move for max mileage but serval PAX got them in.

:straight_ruler: Distance: Just shy of 4 miles
:fire: Legs were smoked. Chests were tight. Spirits were high.
MARY: None
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Tortose & The Hare, Bethal Men’s,
COT: Sasquatch & Spector’s Anniversary

Message of the Day
:clock4: Today is National Leave the Office Early Day.

It’s a great reminder that time is something we don’t get back.
That’s why I try to stay focused during the day—avoiding distractions like social media or unnecessary tasks—so I can truly disconnect and spend time with my family in the evenings.

I work out early in the morning before the day starts, not just for the routine, but so my evenings are open and intentional.

If we manage our time wisely during the workday, we create space for what matters most after it.
Work hard. Be efficient. And make sure your time reflects your priorities.
