Six Station Siege

AO: the-knoll
Q: Sooie
PAX: Juicy J, Piglet, Siri, AAA, G-string, Wolfpack, Half Lyfe, Roadkill, Pebbles, Sooie, Gold Digger, Legos, Papa Bear, Stubs, Étouffée, Eric Phillips Snapshot (Suncoast), Derby
FNGs: None
COUNT: 17
CONDITIONS: SHORTS IN JANUARY!!!

WARMUP:
– SSH
– BAC
– BBAC
– Seal Claps
– Don Quixotes
– Plank walkout
– Plank -> lunge -> one-hand sky touch thingy
– Good Mornings
– WMH OYO

THE THANG:
Having given the disclaimer and warm up, PAX counted off in by 2 and YHC handed out glow bracelets. 1’s got green (Team Qui-Gon) and 2’s got purple (Team Mace). We then misused to the field of battle where I explained the rules:
Two teams battle to control all 6 stations in a straight line (15 yards apart).
– Capture an uncontrolled station: First team to 50 combined reps of its exercise claims it.
– Hold a captured station: Leave at least 1 PAX (but max 2 defenders) doing SSH or Imperial Walkers.
– Attack: Only adjacent stations. When both teams start repping at the same station → race to 50 combined reps.
– Losers of a contested station sprint ~100 yards out-and-back to respawn.
– Scoring: 1 point when your team controls all 6 stations at once.

Stations & Exercises
1. Burpees
2. Monkey Humpers
3. Squats
4. WW2 Sit-Ups
5. Apollo Onos (speed skaters)
6. Merkins

It was absolute chaos but fun nonetheless. No idea which team won. There was much strategery. Of note: this is the fastest I’ve seen anyone do Monkey Humpers

MOLESKINE:
I spent more time thinking about the rules that I forgot to think about a moleskine. Thus a moleskine was born: don’t sweat the details so much that you lose sight of the big picture. 17 men came out for a wonderful start of 2026!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
insane_train official launch tomorrow (1/7)! Derby has done an incredible job leading the charge and filling sandbags! Come out and support the launch of Nashville’s newest AO!

Celebrated the 2 Year Anniversary of The Castle’s start as an OTB workout.

Moseyed to the parking lot at the Drakes Creek baseball fields stopping for some Monkey Humpers at the traffic light.

Did some warm up exercises while having some story time about the start of the Castle. Grateful to Cross-stitch and Flipper for planting the seed before we got here. Thanks fellas.

Moseyed around the concession stand. Circled up for the Burpee Apocalypse with a lap around the stand after each set.

Moseyed back to the Startex with some more Monkey Humpers at the light. Then a sprint to the flag.

Finally, 5 mins of MARY and 5 Burpee buy out.

Announcements: LeanPax, Holy Smokers, F3 After Hours. Check Slack for all the details.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: Brown Slip is the New AOQ. Congrats brother.

Prayer requests: Travel, Strutter’s family

COT: Was absolutely blown away, yesterday. I didn’t want to start an AO in Hendersonville and was told by several people. “Oh we’ve tried and it’s never worked”. Sunshine pushed me to do it along with Pep , hambone and others committing to coming up from Nashville and beyond. So we launched as an OTB workout, Jan 2024. To see 19 HIMs there, was beyond anything I could comprehend. There were times when it was 2 or 3 of us. Then Dilbert showed up and EH’d every single person he met. Then Strutter arrived from NC, bringing the energy from the mother land.

There are countless others to thank. Thank you all for showing up, leading and investing in the fastest growing AO in Nashville with the best coffeetria. I’m excited to see what is next for the HIMs beyond the Wall (Old Hickory Blvd). White House is growing and it’s just a matter of time before another AO is Hendersonville starts.

SYITG,
Chunks

2026 – challenge everyone to build a deeper community where conversations go beyond “I’m good.” Everyone has ups and downs and deep, accountable, and challenging relationships are a life line to our mental health. We cannot grow if we are just counseling ourselves and not sharing and encouraging each other.

Natural Ice and I host a small group every Wednesday night at 7:30 and you are all invited whether you go to our church or not.

Lastly thanks to Pep for being our new AOQ as he will take us to new heights and start being in our photos!

Took kids ice skating, big part of me is coaching trying to help them learn. Maybe a little to much. Ended up getting distracted and talking with some family. Next thing I know they are both skating around without the plastic ice skating walker and playing broom ball. It was great to see them get to that by themselves.
