Got a frantic call from Faulkner last night needing a Q sub for today. Naturally, I leapt at the chance to step in and inflict some woggle on the PAX. Turned out my designed Iron Pax Week 0 was welcomed with chagrin from Leatherneck and Offshore, “Man, that’s what we did at Purple Cow on Monday”. Learning from that: 1) Post BB so we don’t repeato the Qs 2) Stay informed on the Slack channels that you don’t always post to as a regular.

Great work today men. Always a pleasure to lead. Sorry about the confusion with the work this am. Duly noted for next time. Love partnering up, hope yall got to know a bit more about one another.

Don’t forget why we do what we do and how we do what we do…

To reinvigorate male community leadership through small peer led workout groups:

Open to all men
Held outdoors
Free of charge
Led in a rotating fashion of peers
Always ends in COT

We never leave a man behind but we also never leave him where we found him.

Now get out there and share those things with another man in need i.e go EH some Sad Clowns.

16 redwoods posted to get a little stronger and faster at the Racetrack.  Here’s how it went down:

Disclaimer then mosey around the main park loop and circle-up in the center for Warmarama= SSH, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Cotton Pickers, squat thrusts, scorpion stretch and inverted scorpion

Divide into two teams with Team 1 executing the ‘Cindy’ WOD for 10 minutes= 5 pull-ups, 10 merkins, 15 squats

Team 2 sprints half of the track EMOM

Flapjack then switch back to the same rotation for 5 minutes of Cindy and 5 minutes of sprints.  We had to cut this a bit short to work on some Mary.

Mosey to flag for Mary then COT.

Announcements:  0545 Ruck followed by breakfast at First Watch on Franklin Road (by Kroger) this Saturday!

NMM:  Tiny Dancer said he was excited to get some upper body work this morning, and YHC is not overly sure he provided exactly that.., but who doesn’t need more sprints, right?  Razorback did express some criticism over the Q’s lack of originality in going back to the same rotation of Cindy and Sprints, but YHC never claimed to be fast or creative.  At least he and Umbrella provided Gatorade and Coffee!  Special welcome to Egg Bowl who passed YHC on numerous sprints and 8 Bit who nearly caught Tiny Dancer on their last sprint.

Always a privilege to lead!

Stay Classy,

COT with YHC taking us out

NMM:  Apparently the F3 Nashville sewing circle was hard at work at BV had informed Grease Trap and Big Bang that a Murph was about to go down at Racetrack.  This didn’t stop Mr Bang as her rolled right from one into the next #WhatThe.  YHC appreciated the support of the Pax as a drive by burrito incident made this event a bit more challenging than usual.

Stay Classy,
