Tribal ceremony

8 Men showed at Folsom Saturday we had one Fng, but before all of that we had an impromptu tribal ceremony. Many of you know Allen Tate but few may know him as Chief. You can’t be chief of a tribe without a ceremonial headdress. Montross provided the gift and Chief was more than appreciative. 630 let’s get to work!

The thang:
Warm up Ssh,slow squats, merkins
20 each
To the tennis courts
11’s imperial squats and Freddy mercury’s
Bear crawls back and forth then around the lines. At this point the FNG is noticing that we at Folsom do a lot of mumble chatter.
4 corners x25 eachstop x4
Mtn.climbers, raise the roof,squats,lbc’s
Since we had the burpees by the lake coming up that morning I decided that some ultimate football would be great idea especially with an fng. Mr. Garvey warmed up to this idea. I’m not going to repeat the score (not sure if I can count that high). Afterwards we met back at the flag pledge and 22 for the vets. Finished with COT.

Prayer request:
We took this moment to celebrate what God has blessed us with. Cod possums surgery went well and he is recovering. My M is feeling better from her recent chrohns flare up. We did pray for the people of special Olympics and for the event held Saturday.
Announcements:
Christmas town 5k

The Bed Pan is full!
Always an honor to serve!

Mid summer morning in Mt Holly

Few in numbers at Mt Hollywood, but high in intensity.  Six HIM’s came out to start the week.  Went like this:

Started with SSH, Don Q’s, and imperial walkers.  Added in 5 burpees.

Mosey down Catawba to Main St, stop in the parking lot of the Italian restaurant.  Q calls blackjack with merkins and American hammers.  Started out with 20 merkins , ran up the hill to end of parking lot, one American hammer.  Reversed until one merkin and 20 hammers.  210 reps total.  Go to the wall at side of restaurant.  Q calls for 10 Australian montain climbers, 10 hip slappers, and 30 second wall sit, three rounds.  Brick pavers on walk way are of the slick variety, our hands were slipping from the sweat, wanted to avoid face plants so we omahaed to Tiger squats, 10 on one curb, run across for one on opposite curb and reverse (11’s).  About half way through, time to mosey back.

Time.

Christmastown 5K coming up, also The Forge on Wednesday at Grit’s n Greens

Remember Oompa and his family, Tesla sister, brother from Atlanta area that passed last week.

Q closed with prayer.  Have a good week everybody

Yank in the Woods

For any of you who the title describes what you do in your personal time, please keep that to yourself.

YHC decided to mix it up at the Yank, explore some new places.  We started with SSH 15x, Cotton Pickers 10x, imperial walkers 15x, 5 burpees.

Mosey to trail head and Rocky Branch, 5 burpees upon arrival.  PAX instructed to search for two coupons while on the trails, hang on to them.  Began a mosey on the main trail, but stopped at bridges for hand relase merkins or LBCs.  We did six sets of 20 hand release, and two sets of 25 LBCs while on the trail.  We did only the first section of main trail, about 1.3 miles.

Coming off the trail everybody had their coupons.  Q calls for iron hulk with coupons.  One merkin and four shoulder press, two merkin and 8 shoulder press, all the way 10 merkins and 40 shoulder presses.  This was tough.  Mosey back up Woodrow Ave to pull up bar being Belmont Middle.  10 pull-ups.  Mosey to the Yank.  Couple minutes remain so we called 25 American hammers, 25 flutter crunches, 25 dips.  Time.

PAX pushed hard, great work men.  We mentioned Christmastown 5k speed for need.

Tesla mentioned his Uncle Roy that passed away recently, who was a WWII pilot is being honored in Kannapolis Saturday with a military flyover.  All are welcome to attend.  Some thought also shared of what the Yank represents to them, some really good words spoken.

Q closed with prayer.
