shotgun bootcamp

This was from the General, one of our brothers last week in Ballentine and they ended up donating $1025 for Debbie’s project so I thought you may want to read and make sure we say thanks next time we work out there

Typically, I’ve put announcements at the end of the backblast but in this case I definitely have an important one to put front and center. The Union County PAX have been working to restore a house in Union County. The house is home to her daughter and 2 other grandchildren that she is supporting. She lost her husband recently and has also taken in a man that has been struggling. Her house is sinking into the ground and in need of major restructuring and remodeling. Troylette has put together a Go Fund Me Page and a Sign up Genie Volunteer page and is asking for support in the form of monetary contributions or labor. Visit the links below for more information on the project and TCLAPS to the Union County crew for their work on this.

Now back to today:

Knowing the weather yesterday and the lack of football my guess was that our wayward brothers may return this morning to get the abs ready for spring break:)  By the time 6:30 rolled around 23 brothers had gathered and it was time to let the work begin.

WU:  Quick lap around the lot, roll out the disclaimer,  begin.  30 SSH, 10 Merkins, 30 LBC’s, 10 Wide arm Merkins, 10 Cottonpickers Roll with it.

The Thang:  Well there really wasn’t a thang, it was bootcamp through and through, run to the light 30 American hammers in cadence,  next light 20 Merkins on your own, next light 20 CDD in cadence. Run to the rock pile,  grab a friend modified version of 7’s 7, Squats on the bottom 7 curls on the top of the hill 6 6, 5,5 ETC.  Finish at the top of the hill, staggered merkins when done 10 each arm in cadence.  Mosey over to the back lot. Partner up and Toilet bowl run, partner 1 Supines, while other runs the loop 200 supines in total.  next exercise run the other loop as a team complete 100 burpees.

Mosey back quick stop for some people’s chair and air presses, mosey to the lights, quick stop for some heels to heaven 30 in cadence.  mosey home to finish with 10 pistol LBC in cadence each leg.

Moleskin:

2 FNG’s welcomed to day,  Bill and Jordan.  Bill informed us with that he was a Michigan fan and I put down that he be called Buckeye but we ended on Buck for short.  Jordan does something with planes so goodfella came up with Stryker from the movie airplane.  It was great to have two new to the crew today. In addition it was great to have a few back that have not been here in a while. Doc was out all week last week and so where the McDonald crew,  we missed them and it was good to have them back.  It was clear that the mumble chatter came down pretty quick and there was some grumbling while doing burpee’s so I assume everyone got their monies worth.  Good morning, good crew.  As always proud to call you my brothers.

Other Announcements:  Dasher’s Company restructured and cut the sales force on Friday with out notice.  He is looking for employment.  So please get the word out if you know someone looking for a salesperson.
