Day: March 24, 2024

Merlin and Mr. Tuttle and another pax with a name I can’t recall were interested to hear about our Pushing Rocks challenge.  Good morning to share stories downrange.

With the site Q absent, and apparently not checking Team Up, YHC showed up to Q TRB as scheduled, but so did Goose, with some sort of verbal agreement with Nutria. After a little discussion YHC and Goose agreed to postpone the Goose Q ‘til next time.

After the warm up the Pax hit each of the 11 light poles for a Route 66 with Bobby Hurley’s. A Route 66 is one rep at the first light, 2 reps at the second light and so on for 11 lights. Just for the edification of F3 Gastonia, there are exactly 11 light poles from the flag to the end of the back parking lot.

Route 66 with big boys going the other way.

Mosey to the field for a rendition of JC’s Marine Bootcamp special. From the middle of the field, a Pax calls an exercise and the reps. YHC made the rep rule of minimum of 10, maximum of 25, or caller’s choice if I/C. After performing the exercise, mosey to the short side of the field, mosey across to the other side, then back to the middle for the next Pax called exercise. Rinse and repeat til time. Last called was 5 burpees OYO, however YHC reminded the Pax of the minimum rule, so it was over-ruled to 10 burpees. Mosey back to the flag for the pledge and COT.

It’s prom season in the area and some of the Pax’s 2.0s are asking other Pax’s 2.0s to the prom. Opportunities abound to hand out advice to the 2.0s and their HIMs, most of it doesn’t seem to real good, IMO.

After the pledge and a warm up, YHC explained tabata. For those that don’t know, it’s a time-based workout with a certain time for work and a certain time for rest. Today’s version is 60 seconds of work and 15 seconds of rest, rinse and repeat for 10 reps. Exercises performed were halos, around the world, kettlebell swings, curls, chest press, tricep extension, rows right side, rows left side, calf raises.

After the set, mosey, in snake fashion, around the parking lot, dos some core work, then repeat the set.

Pax pushed hard, complained (sometimes a lot!), and got through 2 and a half sets.
