PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4zyFdHWdnCRvbNwafZcrMI?si=467e64ecea4d467b

WARMUP:
– 30 x SSH

– 15 x High Knees OYO
– 15 x Butt Kickers OYO
– 10 x Carrot Pullers (pka Cherry Pickers, which makes no sense)
– 10 x Windmills

THE THANG: BEACH BODS :beach_with_umbrella: :muscle:

PAX split into 2 groups, switching off as runners for a rotation timer while the other group busts out the reps below. All PAX have to complete all reps, group waits for the 6 to transition to the next exercise.

Travel on blacktop: Mosey down, bear crawl across, bernie back, shuffle across. 2 laps each rotation.

Big boy sit-ups x 50
Euro steps x 50
Atomic merkins x 50
Crab jacks x 50
Happy crunchy frogs x 50

Modify travel to replace bear crawl with shuffle across, still x2 laps

Bulgarian split squats x 50
Outlaws x 50
Dry docks x 50
Smurf jacks x 50

MOLESKINE: The workout and tunes were admittedly the opposite vibe of the surroundings, but it was a good lift and it proved the point that you’ve gotta put in the work before you get to enjoy the results. Those BEACH BODS will be better on Spring Break for having spent the morning in the rainy Gloom today.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– brewsday next week
– Murder Mile at the end of the month at greenmachine

COT:
– Prayers for family coming in town, speed of life is fast
– Prayers for a cousin with a new baby, entering parenthood
– Prayers for school decision and family conversations on the topic
– Prayers for a pregnant wife, that nausea continues to abate

YHC shared that we just got back from a trip to visit my wife’s grandpa whose wife had just passed away. They had been married almost 60 years. Reminder to the PAX that we’re not guaranteed any time at all, and to take a moment of gratitude for their spouse and share an extra word of encouragement or an I love you today.

It’s always an honor and a joy to join you gents out in Crieve Hall – thanks for the warm (ish) welcome and I look forward to next time!

TIME

NMM –

The morning started off pretty normal. Did some stretching, some chatting then headed west on a mosey. This is where things got weird … our Q, Winona was a bit fixated on Qing up the tunes and suddenly went down. We are still investigating the security footage but there was either
1) a sniper that took him out 2) a random pothole that occurred overnight 3) Deep State tripped him or 4) he didn’t see the speed bump. All signs pointing to 4.

Pedialyte swooped in to do triage and the rest of us took a mosey around the mini diamonds and circled up in the lot. When EZGO asked “Who’s gonna Q” obv ATQ piped up and off we went.

BH –
Prayers up for Movin on Up’s family as his Grandfather passed away earlier this week.

Praying for our children specifically those in middle school dealing with all that goes along w MS.

413 Strong Signing Day on Friday. Hit up Red Skull for details.

Safety and speed for those running the Rock n Roll this weekend.
