Mole-

Now is a good time to start thinking about joining up for the 4:45am Monday CSAUP- help your Sunday discipline by putting something early on your Monday. Its also time to come to the Standard - 4:45am is early but you can do it. You can push yourself and work with your brothers to get better. Think about how much more you can do. Complacency is a threat in a group like ours - lots of big dogs, winning victories all over... but let's ask...

Can I do more, be more, extend more? Physically/Professionally/Spiritually/As Dad/As Husband/As friend. And what if I fail? Well, if that's not even a possibility... then I'm not stretching FAR ENOUGH.

Here's to being better together... WAY outside the comfort zone.

GET SOME.

Tortoise.

Lake Holiday

Date: 4/19/19

AO: Firepit

Pax: Braddock (QIC), Gigem, Tortoise, Waterboy, Poodle, Hackface, Shoota, Lump, Macaroni, Hoser.

It's the sort of morning where if OG Gobbler graced us with his presence, he'd be singing Misty Mountain Hop at the top of his voice. Sigh. We managed without him. Again. 50 degrees should be shorts n shirts, weather, so whey were we all freezing? The world may never know. I digress...

Warm-O-Rama

50 quick SSH

High knees dropping to a merkin when the Q says "DROP!"

5X GM, 5X WMH

The Thang

First, a quick mosey around the lake, about a mile and change. I borrowed Triple Threat's pair of 20 lb dumbbells, which we passed around so that everyone had one approximately 1/5 of the time. Who cheated? Pumpkin eaters. I had to force it out of Tortoise's hands at one point. Gimme that. Did we do a 10 burpee speed bump? Yes I believe we did.

Back to the bus lot for the following:

1-6 Double Shot o' Jack, followed by a three-phase suicide each time. Then...

Partner up, find a parking line, and bear crawl to the center for 1-5 bro merkins, crawl bear back to the start.

To the courtyard for 2 rounds of one minute wall sit, then 10X balls-to-the-wall

To the swings for 10X Swirkins, 10X swing-ups, RnR

Mosey the long way 'round for a finisher of 10X burpees.

Moleskin: Felt strong today. Let's pay it forward with service and keeping eyes open for EH activities. You are beasts!

Jackie Robinson - 42 Day

4/15/19 Battleground QIC - Scud Row - 12 PAX- Big Bang, Torch, Poodle, Maytag, Hackface, OT, Waterboy, Gig em, Lump, Bartman, Dodger Dog.

Today being Jackie Robinson Day in MLB to commemorate the breaking of the color barrier in baseball and the mental toughness that was endured with that accomplishment, there were a lot of 4's and 2's and 42's used today. Thank you Jackie for being a exceptional example of leadership and strength.

Warm-O-Rama

First off we moseyed on over to the bottom of the deathstar to get some room to circle up.

4+2 good mornings while I explained the theme (yes it is also Tax day...)

21 small arm circle forward

21 big arm circle forward

21 small arm circle backwards

21 big arm circles backwards

The THANG

Repeating 4 lunges and 2 Mercs down the side of the deathstar.

Partner up, while one partner sprints up the ramp and moseys back down, other partner is doing Bobby Hurleys (Squat to slap the ground, jump up like shooting a basketball). Then switch. Complete 42 Bobby Hurleys together. Then sprint up the ramp as a group once everyone is in. 4 burpees and 2 mercs at the top.

Rinse and repeat until we get to the top!

Somewhere in level 3 or 4, hackface got a weird look for lunging to close to someone's car.

Ran out of time for some other fun stuff I wanted to do at the top but ended with 42 LBC's

Moleskin -

It was a pleasure to lead you all today. I continue to learn from you guys weekly to push myself physically and mentally.

"Maybe tomorrow we'll all wear 42, so nobody can tell us apart.
