Sled fun, compliments of Doc McStuffins

6 men, decided to leave the fart sac and posted this morning at Commitment. I was surprised by the low number and absence of many of the regulars, some mumble chatter I heard that many are hesitant to post when I am Qing, not sure why is that, maybe because my workouts are boring?, not challenging enough?, or too challenging for some folks?, the thing is that every time I Q I always want to get the most out of everyone in the group, from the fittest men to the guy that just started, with that being said I also always make sure nobody gets dropped. You can always “modified as needed” and no body will judge you if you are the last of the pack, or modifying the exercises (Unless you modified/half rep every single one and then brag that you beat everybody else). Anyway….feed back is always welcome to make my workouts a more pleasant and rewarding experience.

The work went like this:
COP
30 SSH IC
20 Merkins IC
30 Mountain Climbers IC
30 Imperial Walkers IC
30 LBC IC
20 Squats IC

Mosey around the parking lot to the right of the school and then back to the front, stopped at my car, got 2 100 pound loaded sleds. Divided in two groups of 3 men.
First round , while 1 PAX dragged the sled the other 2 did 10 hand release Merkens and ran to catch up the sled guy and swap, repeating until completing 2 laps around the parking lot at the front of the school.
Second round, same thing but replacing the Merkens for 5 Burpees until completing two laps.

Mosey to the back of the school, cross the bridge doing lunge walks, Mosey to the Track, ran around the track and did 4 sets of 15 Merkens at equally distanced spots, finished at the staring point with 10 Burpees.

Mosey to the short wall and did:
30 Dips IC
10 Derkens
Step ups with a high knee at the top IC 20 each leg
30 Dips IC
5 Merkens
One legged Squats with one foot on the wall IC 10 each leg.

Mosey to the Hill behind the school:
Started at the bottom, run to the top do 5 Hand release Merkens, run down hill, and run backwards back to the top do 4 HR Merkens, repeating to work until one HR Merken is done.

Mosey to the front of the school for some more sled fun.
Two groups again, 1 PAX at each end of the parking lot are doing an exercise while the other PAX is dragging the sled from one end to the other then swapping with one partner. Exercises were Carolina Dry Docks, American Hammer and Merkens.

Mosey to the short well at the front of the school:
30 DIPS IC
20 DIPS IC
10 DIPS IC
5 DIPS IC
………….and done!

Moleskin:
Thank you again for letting me lead, everyone got a good workout , what a great way to start the weekend.
I was very impressed with Maple Syrup, he was flying with that sled, I think must be all the practice since I don’t think he has missed a single one of my sled appearances. Bottle Cap was pushing hard today I heard him yelled a few times. Birthday boy Popeye was a beast with the sleds as always, at one point he said “I feel bad for Hollywood he is pulling his body weight on those sleds” and I reply “I don’t feel bad he is moving faster than any of us” definitely the sled didn’t slow him down much. And what to say about Argonaut, he is becoming a regular at Commitment, the man is a beast and his Qs are fierce, happy to have him around.

Announcements:
Ragnar needs a few men to fill some spots, if interested reach out to JRR Tolkien, we can put you in contact with him if needed. From our side of the woods Transporter, Dasher and myself are running it, we are looking forward to it and would be awesome if some of the UC guys fill the available spots.
Ended with 38 Burpees in honor of Popeye’s B-Day.

Thank you Bottle Cap for Taking us out.

Man, Popeye is o-l-d. Doc, don’t change a thing. Men crave hard more than they fear it.

Thanks Doc for the Ragnar promotion . Would love to have some more Union County men join the other ~100 men from F3 Nation there. We have filled some slots but have a few remaining so please msg me on Twitter: @Jrrtolkienf3 or email mrkevinmyoung@yahoo.com so I can put you on a team ASAP before the last few spots are filled. You don’t need to be a “runner” to participate.
