  • A squirrel while doing squrls – from Boo-Boo

    After the standard disclaimer. PAX moseyed to the rock pile for warmup including SSH x 31, Arm circles 10 forward/ 10 backwards, Abe Vigodas x10, Grass Grabbers x10, Mountain Climbers x 20, and Toy Soldiers aka Hairy Rockettes aka Kim Jung-uns.

    PAX were instructed to grab a medium rock and proceed to the parking lot near the “running path.”

    LT. Dan across parking lot to the gym.

    3 sets of 25 (Or is it two? Let’s stick with three) triceps extension/chest press (75 total)
    Mosey 50 yards, 10 mountain climbers (2 is 1), and Bernie Sanders back

    SSH waiting for 6

    3 sets of 25 rows (75 total)
    Karaoke 50 yards, 10 American Hammers (2 is 1), and Karaoke back

    SSH waiting for 6

    3 sets of 25 (75 total) squrls (squat, curl)
    Mosey 50 yards, 10 LBCs, and mosey Back

    Tclaps to Rudy, who was the only PAX to complete the third set of squrls. Ironically, on his return mosey, Rudy chased a squirrel (while yelling “squirrel, squirrel”) that was innocently trying to cross the parking lot on its way to get some breakfast.

    Once PAX gained their composure from Rudy’s delirium caused by oxygen deprivation, they returned their rocks and moseyed to the flag.

    COT, prayer lead by War Eagle, OUT! It’s always an honor to lead HIM and helps me to become a better leader.

  • BBB (Bolt’s Beast Builder) – from Bolt

    Warmorama: Rapper’s Delight edition with an emphasis on the parts used in burpees. The Thang: 100 burpees for time and with the mantra of, “Leave No Man Behind, Leave No Man Where You Found Him” we will all continue supporting those still pushing themselves until the Six is in! Hawg led the pack, establishing himself as a beast with a time of 7:18. War Eagle opted for a couple laps after 1.5 burpees, Triple showed up coiffed and just after the main Thang ended—shocker. A game of FastTax’s brainchild, ultimate frisburpee, ensued, resulting in Thumb War’s consternation with the rule differences from the far less interesting ultimate frisbee. The end result was the non-R.E.D. Team lost 1-0.

  • Full-Body Friday – from Boo-Boo

    With rain all around but none at the AO, four PAX assembled for a slightly cooler than usual beatdown.

    Tenderloin was so excited, he started early. The remaining three moseyed to the field for a warmup consisting of SSH x25, IW x20, Abe Vigodas (4-ct per side) x 10, MHC x20, Batwings (with dancing), and Mountain Man Poopers.

    Off to the rock pile, stopping to greet TL on the way. A rock selected conducive to curls and overheads.

    Mosey to the small baseball field and rocks carefully placed in the middle. 11s starting with Burpees (of course), stopping in the middle for five curls. Big boi sit-ups on the other side, stopping for overheads on the way back.

    Upon completion of the 11s, PAX assembled on one side of the field, with rocks, for Lt. Dans (with rocks) to the opposite tree line and back.

    Rocks returned to the rock pile and a mosey back to the flag for some Mary (LBCs and Lazy Boyz).

    COT, announcements, prayer, OUT! It’s always an honor to lead HIM.

  • If Not Me Then Who? – from Fracsac

    YHC got a text from the Site Q late last night that he was Down Range and asked if YHC could take it. Being tired and sore, the answer wanted to be no. Then YHC remembered a saying. “If not me, then who?”

    5 Pax for the Wally sprint. Mile warmup, followed by the ladder of 100m up to 400m with a 100m recovery between each. Up and down until 0615.
