Welcome back to the 90s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH while we gathered everyone to get the party started. Then took off for a short mosey over to the flags. Windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squats, merkins. Then ran to the back of the school.
THE THANG: we setup the DJ station for some 90s jams. Stating point was by the gym where the picnic tables were at and we would do 1 exercise, run to the end of the parking lot where the orange cones are normally at, then back to the music for the following exercise, reading left to right and then progressing down. But 1 exercise, then run every time. I think 2.5 miles were got or close to, and the kings were somewhere down to the jump squats.

10 burpees (30 seconds Al Gore)
15 diamonds (30 monkey humpers)
20 hand release (50 calf raises)
25 wide arm (50 flutters)
30 merkins (40 step ups total)
35 rangers (25 incline merkins)
40 carolina dry docs (30 hammers)
45 plank jacks (30 sec wall sit)
50 mountain climber (50 LBC)
60 shoulder taps (25 jump squat)
90 sec plank (25 decline merkins)

MARY: didn’t happen today
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter and shovel flag handoff to Halfback!! Congrats!
COT: love these guys and the support they give each of us!

NMM
When we’re young, our heroes wear capes. As we age, our new heroes wear flaws, scars, and wisdom. They quietly show up, do the work, and expect no applause. Growing up isn’t about losing heroes, it’s about finding real ones.

You men are my heroes. You each have special gifts that I admire. You may not see it, but we do. Spending time in the Gloom with you men makes me better. Thank you.

Halfway there…… 10 Seconds….

Leave a comment

Beautiful day in the Gloom. Always look forward to Q. Great turnout at the sink for my madness with a timer.

Warmup:

SSH x 15
Seal Jack x 15
Plank Jack x15
Mountain Climber x 15

Pick up something heavy get to the field

All Pax line up facing a series of cones. All Pax have to do the following with their Block or Sandbag

50 Curls
75 Flutters with Press
100 Squats
25 Man makers

Every minute on the minute they will hear a beep. When you hear the beep you move to a cone.
Mode of Transportation between cone 1 and 2 is Overhead carry. Mode of Transportation of cones 2 and 3 are murder bunny or Bag toss.
Wash rinse repeat until all reps are done.
There was also a 20 minute timer on this. All pax finished just under the 20 minutes mark.

Next Phase
All pax line up in an Indian run format. The 6 will do 5 squats. We run for a minute then do a minute of an exercise. 8 rounds.

The exercises were
Bent over rows
Lunges
Big boy sit ups
Burpee jump overs.

Did this right up until 6:00am.

Theme today was motivation. Do you rush through to get the reps done…do you take your time and try to run out the clock. Or do you have a consistent approach that maximizes your effort and results. Only you know.

Thanks to Brawny for the opportunity to lead!

Harold and Kumar go to coaches box

Leave a comment

WARMUP: helping one another pull our rain coats over our rucksacks.

THE THANG: Headed out towards the coaches box, logged around 3 miles total.

– Went one way to find a locked gate.
– Second shot was through the construction site but decided against.
– Third idea was the baseball field but with the rain we didn’t want to ruin the field.
– Finally we found a quick sneak through and made it to coaches box…just in time for some merkins and to turn around a high tail it back.

Along the journey we stopped for merkins; calf raises, and squats few times.

MARY: None

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Brawnys new site Q announced, tort and hare, Hog and Coyete; Bethels Men shelter.

COT: Prayers and praises for the guys being out there and supporting one another, stress of things not going according to plan, and hope for a none stressful environment with extended family.
