Stairs? I got your stairs right here…

The PAX moseyed down to the CoG facility to make use of the tall staircases for a couple sets of 11’s. Mumblechatter was minimal for the first 30 minutes as YHC had consumed more than my Wednesday night allotment of adult beverages…
On the return trip to COT we did discuss summertime memories and how we would give our attention to our 2.0’s effectively.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: 2nd F Lunch tomorrow at Fort Mill’s finest Chinese/Sushi restaurant, Lee Cafe; Pints & Padres is an awesome opportunity for dads and @barrelaged is really committed to the topic (thanks Travis); and of course, read your newsletter
COT: Prayers for SmallWorld’s wife as she deals with the loss of her brother; Prayers for friends of N&A that are dealing with breast cancer; Prayers for YHC’s 17 year old nephew who is dealing with a blood disease that is approaching a critical point.

Duckless but not Luckless

Well, much like Baxter, the sandwich was pricey with a sexy name, but all I left with was a chunk out of my wallet…

The company was excellent though as I learned more about my man Vuvu and the gravitational power of the M. Show to know.

Training Wheels Memorial 48

What started with pedestrian talk of mammon, marriage and marijuana quickly turned to gambling, clean crack pipes and vomit inducing beer laps. Suffice it to say, awesome.

Next 2nd F opportunity? Friday lunch at the flying Baxter turtle or somesuch. Show to know!!

What idiot called this?

PAX showed up expecting for Shady to be on Q (which explains the large numbers). They had to settle for me, but I’m just happy to be Shady’s understudy. Hope he gets back to 100% soon

WARMUP:
SSH, IW, HW, Shoulder Taps, Peter Parker, Parker Peter, Merkin

THE THANG:
Extra weight. PAX had rucks, sandbags, and bells galore in honor of Gear MAYhem

3 groups
1 took a lap and did swings for the 6
2 groups carried weight the length of the parking lot, did 10 merkins, 15 squats, and came back.

Then we rotated. After everyone got to run we add weight

Between each set of 3 rounds:
(With no extra weight on)
5 manmakers
5 cleans (each side)
5 overhead presses (each side)

We got through 3 sets of 3 rounds

At one point during set 3, I causally and in a very neutral tone mentioned that my grip was shot. Vuvuzela pointed out that he’d never heard anybody gripe about their own Q so much. Maybe I mentioned something earlier too?

MARY: Uhaul Q-jacked for Mary a little early by my clock, but he doesn’t like manmakers.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter, lots of community impact going on!

COT: doing one thing really well is better than 5 things done halfway. Bear reminded us today that form matters. Do a good squat.

Locking Shields, a how to…

Great Invergence today at WEP to close out an entire month of acceleration.

Now that we have finished a month of accelerating HIMs all over the Fort, how do we maintain that acceleration?

Answer? ACCOUNTABILITY!

Best way to execute accountability? Locking shields with fellow PAX.

Best way to consistently lock shields? Join a Shield Lock.

Today we heard from some 🛡🔒 PAX sharing experiences, advice and offering up themselves to their fellow PAX to learn the power of 🛡🔒.

To know more, ask a PAX that was present.

Need guidance or advice moving forward?  Reach out to @Pusher and he will point you in the direction of success and accountability.

The Lights were Out at the Hive

Quick disclaimer and asked if anyone needed to visit the potty before we got started. Seems to be a regular occurrence at the Hive.
WARMUP:
Slow mosey lap around the parking lot. Regular warm up exercises (SSH, Moroccan Night Clubs, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, Plank Stretches, Peter Parkers)

THE THANG:
Next, we picked up the KBs and completed 6 rounds of 29 squats at each light pole. Mode of transportation to each light pole varied (overhead carry, murder bunny, overhead carry, lunge walk, overhead carry). Once complete, we ran another lap around the parking lot.
Next round of exercises, 29 reps of each. Curls, Tricep Extensions, Chest Press, Calf Raises, Swings. The mode of transportation to each light pole: One hand press, bear crawl, overhead press, Crab Walk American Hammer, Two Step Man Maker.

Open Your Heart, Cover Your Plums

THE THANG: Maybe our most beloved PAX led the conversation this morning on the subjects of identity (sometimes multiple identities) and the purpose in trials we travel through.

Key takeaway: Open your heart and cover the plums.
