We’ve Got This One in the Bag

AO: the-castle
Q: hambone
PAX: Grape, Cowboy, hambone, Chunks, Pep, “Just Tom”
FNGs: 1 “Just Tom”
COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: Nice as nice can be for August in Middle Tennessee!

WARMUP: We don’t do that here.

THE THANG: FNG Tom showed up. As we introduced ourselves he realized we had funny names and said, “I’m just Tom”. Just. Tom. Of course Tom is excited to get a name, but we don’t do that here until the 2nd post.

We brought our buddy (60lb sandbag) on our travels this morning.

Indian Run and share with our buddy. We made sure to swap the buddy off appropriately. We did a bit of Strutter’s prostitute route, but then we doubled back and hit the other side of the highway.

On the other side, we did a neat rotation of:

1. One guy runs ~600 meters
2. One guy holds the buddy (sandbag dead hang)
3. One guy planks
4. One guy promdates and holds

We then headed back to meet Chunks and Pep (who creeped out of the back of his car)

MOLESKINE: Grape mentioned that the uphill really torched his calves. He was also coming back from an IT band injury, so impressive work by the best fruit I know.

Cowboy came for a relaxing Saturday, and the 2ish miles we got in our travels were a fraction of what he gets down south. That said, our bag buddy hopefully made it worth it.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Go check slack to see what your bros are doing in the Nashville region.

COT: Prayers for Cowboy’s mother!!

One missed prayer was for hambone’s father; the old man turn 70 on Saturday. Never expected to see that day.

THE THANG: Back 2 School!! :books:

School Bus Route :bus: :octagonal_sign:
Start with a one-mile Indian run “school bus” around the perimeter. Every time the rotation completes the stop sign comes out and the PAX have to give 10 Prisoner Squats. After all, schools are basically prisons. Aim for 100+ squats, 10+ stops.

Route went southeast to the corner, northeast past the playground and then up behind the school. Continue to tennis courts and turn left to cut up through the middle of the AO past startex. Turn right at Lone Oak on the sidewalk and reenter the park on the small path. Turn right onto the main field path, make a full loop and return to started.

Core Subjects :male-teacher:
Split into 5 groups, post up at each station with 1 group running around the parking lot loop 2x. The other groups split up and go to 1 of 4 stations, performing an exercise until the runners return. Repeato with the timer group running 1 lap instead of 2.

English
– “Apart” vs “a part”
– Hello Dollys, spread those legs “apart”

Math
– Ratios, multiplication
– Captain Thors 1:4 ratio of Big Boy Sit-ups to American Hammers

Science
– Inertia
– J-Lo’s, it takes force to stop movement in a given direction

History
– First public school in the country predates the country’s founding
– Boston Latin School founded in 1635
– 1 Clerkin, 6 Supermans, 3 Peter Parkers, 5 Mountain Climbers

Once PAX complete each station and are back to their “homeroom”, they serve detention. Complete 20 burpees. SSH in silence to get out of detention, otherwise more burpees, repeat til successful.

MOLESKINE:
YHC was sucking wind after the bus route and appreciated the pace pushers who made it more of a challenge. The sunrise was so nice the Q called a Salute the Sunrise between the sets with a 10 burpee salute. As for detention, the PAX didn’t get out of detention immediately, but they were much more eager to avoid the burpees the second time and got out after only 2 rounds.

Also of note, sooner finally pulled a great name out of his hat and gets credit for Pollo Loco, who was a fantastic EH apparently by Michelin Man though the Mich himself was not in attendance :eyes:

YHC also brought some home-brewed Gatorade for coffeeteeria. If there was ever a morning for it, this was it, and it hit the spot as a preamble to sooner’s excellent carafe of bean juice.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– U-Haul themed workout this Saturday AM for Detective Pikachu
