  • Deca Die Trick or Treating – from Bolt

    Warmorama, Halloween edition (with bat wings of course, which ended with 100% MNC dancing—Frac was pleased). Kick off the Thang with Monster Mash (Zombie walk in place nonstop with burpees on the Mash=34) followed by a mosey to JPAS with two deca-die in tow for some trick or treating: roll both die and perform them back to back. Interestingly the die only gave us tricks (tuck jumps, mountain climbers, merkins, tricep dips, side planks, Bonnie Blair’s). After everyone rolled and led their exercises, except when KennaBrah hijacked Charmin’s second exercise which required payback from Frac upon KennaBrah’s roll, we the moseyed up the ramp where we partnered up. Everyone plank while first pair does 10 LBCs in cadence then dry dock down the steps and plank at the bottom until all pax complete. Back up the stairs and one final roll of the die, YHC hits craps: double tricep dips. Mosey back to the start for 5 MOM. COT including prayers for those suffering loss and those seeking changes.

    Halloween is my second favorite holiday next to Mardi Gras and despite the tricks played by the deca-die, it’s a treat to be part of this brotherhood; gratitude for each of you!

  • Oh Frac, Where Art Thou? – from Bolt

    YHC rolled up prepared for bootcamp or ruck depending on the pax and found only Kenna Brah milling about for his planned ruck—sans ruck. Bootcamp it is: kick off Bolt 3M promise with the usual warmup followed by a quick mosey to the “squish” pad for the Thang. Even though Frac was a no show YHC forged ahead with a mini burpeepalooza:

    “Flower” by Moby–burpees on every “Down”/SSH

    Balance beam forward and backward
    Dips x 20
    RLSU x 25
    Dry Docks x 20
    LLSU x 25
    Dry Docks x 20

    “Black Betty” by Ram Jam–every “Black Betty”/Toy Soldiers

    Australian pull ups under/overhand grips x 15 each

    “Tubthumping” by Chumbawumba–every “I get knocked down…”/Seal Claps

    Mary (AMRAP 1 min each, in cadence):
    LBC
    Oblique crunches
    Dying cockroaches
    American Hammers

  • Something for Everyone – from Boo-Boo

    13 men came to the Wally Sprint for varying flavors of difficulty, but all with the purpose of becoming stronger than when they arrived.

    Ruckers- Logo, Charmin, Hokie, Kenner Brah, Macgyver, Boo-Boo, Klinger, and Baloo completed 2.37 miles followed by nine minutes of Mary incorporating weighted rucks.

    Tenderloin did his thing.

    Sprinters- Hawg, Frac, Pai Gow, Mambi mindlessly sprinted around the track and showed up to COT dizzy.

    COT, prayers, OUT! Coffeteria followed with partial attendance.

  • Soccer Rope – from Fracsac

    After completing IPC Monday at Rock City behind a locked gate listening to the Fast Tax Q have fun in the gloom, YHC opted not to repeat IPC and took the Q for some fun at the Goldmine.
    After a warmup, we grabbed some cones, a rope, and a soccer ball and hit the field. It was all fun and games, still getting in 3 or so miles.
    Aside from a few rope burns and a Kennah Brah circle of doom, it was somewhat safe.
