Last Sunday, I totally screwed up and thought I was the Q and Vagabond so graciously let me Co-Q the workout with him. This week, for sure, I was the Q and I didn’t want to disappoint! Time to implement all the crazy ideas I had to help us make a downpainment for the upcoming week.

I gave the disclaimer and then moseyed to the front of the Museum and faced the bacon. I instructed the PAX to do hip circles but meant to perform the Open the Gate exercise and was thoroughly corrected. Not to be thrown off my game, I quickly corrected my terminology and moved forward with the Warmup exercises.

10 Open the Gate (both legs), 10 Low Slow Squats, 10 Low Slow Merkins finished with 30 SSH all in cadence.

Thang 1 – Split up into two team for a Bataan Death Crawl at the front of NOMA and head toward the back of NOMA. The last person in the bear crawl line does 10 squats with weights and then runs to the front of the bear crawl line. As they reach the last person in the bear crawl line, they give them the weights and that person does 10 squats as they head to the front of the line. Keep repeating this routine till the group reaches the back of NOMA. From there, we switch to the Bataan Death Lunge Walk with the last person in the lunge walk line perform 10 overhead presses then runs to the front. As they reach the last person in the lunge walk line, they give them the weights so they can perform 10 overhead presses. Repeat till we reach the front.

Thang 2 – Split up into 2 person teams and PAX 1 performs a cumulative 30 burpees and 60 stair rail body rows/kettlebell rows while the other farmer carries two weight to the yield sign and back to switch out.

Thang 3 – Running out of time, I had to significantly change Thang 2 to get to the Jackass Burpee Webb at the back of NOMA. We worked our way up to 8 burpees in cadence and 16 donkey kicks. That exercise is a fan favorite! We were all gassed needless to say and finished up with one Sunday morning.

Countoff, Namerama, and COT – Naked Man Moleskin (NMM) Closed us out with a prayer of thanksgiving for the Pax and their vocal correction of me when I screw something up. Because I know it comes from a place of love and honor, I gladly receive it because it helps me to be a better man for my M, family, and community. I wonder how many men encounter that type of gracious correction in their daily lives. I’m not sure the answer to my pondering but I am sure that I’m better because of it. Thankful for the opportunity to lead!
