Day: May 17, 2023

Simple and Effective

It was a balmy yet dry and 65 degree morning at the Labyrinth after a round of powerful storms moved through the area overnight.

Five HIM’s plus YHC showed to know.

5:30 and the pledge.

Some light stretching and Toy Soldiers just to get going.

Head to the park stopping along the way for 5 burpees for the train.

Mosey down to the parking lot of park and circle up.

30 SSH’s

30 more SSH’s

20 Imperial Walkers

20 Squats

20 Monkey Humpers

20 Mountain Climbers

15 Merkins

20 LBC’s

20 Freddie Merks

Mosey up 5 islands in the parking lot and back.

repeat this sequence for 50, 40, 30 SSH’s

Time is becoming a factor so Omaha and start working our way back to the flag stopping along the way at the light poles to do one of the exercises and counts at each pole.

Made it back right on time.

COT and prayer

It was an honor and a privilege this morning gentlemen.

The Fighting Yank 5/13

Small group by Yank standards, but quality is what matters most.  Group of high impact men ready to work.  Begin with the mission of F3, to plant grow and serve small workouts groups for men, for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Short disclaimer with no FNG.  Warm up of SSH, gravel pickers, arm circles, stretches, and added a flexibility test.  Hold a low squat position (like a child would) for a minute.  Most except for Jane Fonda failed miserably.  Point to work on men.

YHC asked for rucks to be brought to workout, all had one.  Head out on a light mosey but faster than ruck pace to the pavilion at top of hill.

Workout is simple:  50 step ups each leg, 50 good form merkins, strap on ruck for a fast pace – two laps around the track.  Rinse and repeat.  YHC finished four rounds, some were more, some were less.

Fast pace ruck is similar to blocks and hills, it amps up the intensity.  If want something hard and a little different, give it a try.

Mosey back to Yank.  Pledge.

Announcements: Time laps 5/19, 2nd F lunch 5/24, Murph Memorial day, annihilation part 2 at Yank 6/03, dads at Yank 6/17

Nobody got hurt

For the first time this season, a game of Ultimate Frisbee was completed at Midoriyama without any injuries. Quite an accomplishment considering the age and skill set of the majority of the PAX who have been participating. Warmup, burpees, merkins, big boys and then 30 minutes of sprinting…good stuff.

 

A few observations:

  • Luigi is going to be as fast as Wojo one day
  • Blart is intimidated by hairy chested men
  • Happy Trees catches everything
  • The Q may have stacked the teams slightly in his favor (unintentionally of course)
