The Thang:

Rifle Carry coupons to small hill below Stonehenge, where we embarked on an IronPax inspired round of

  • 10 – Blockees
  • 20 – Squat thrusters
  • 30 – Kettlebell Swings
  • 40 – Merkins
  • 50 – Bent Over Rows

At the end of the exercises, run up and down the hill until the 6 finishes the round and gets a 2 hill repeats in. Plank for 1 minute to catch breath a little bit. Repeat.

We made it through 3 rounds together.

Return to start by partnering up, where partner 1 bear crawls, partner 2 does farmer carry with 2 coupons. Switch as desired.

CoT:

CSPAN shared about the GTE 24 in Charlotte, and encouraged all to sign up for one when possible.

Prayers for Gates’ grandmother, who is returning home, but still approaching end of life, and for his ability to love his family well in this season.

Prayers for Jumbo as he seeks to get back in rhythm for physical and emotional health.

Prayers for Candyland as he seeks a new job.

Naked Man Moleskin:

I’ve heard of other pax wearing a weight vest or ruck during a bootcamp to increase challenge/strength. In hindsight, doing this for the first time during a coupon workout that I am Q-ing was not well thought out.
