K.I.S.S.

K.I.S.S.

First post since my vacation so was going for simplicity on this one. Unfortunately for the PAX, simple doesn’t mean easy.

The Thang

Hairband Mile to make sure we don’t miss anyone and sure enough, The Late Show lives up to his name. Pick him up and let’s mosey to the parking lot behind the elementary school (the one that doesn’t have a nasty virus running through it)

COP
SSH x 20
IW x 20
And I see someone running towards us in the gloom. Spielberg! Don’t worry, I’ll get your penalty burpees in soon enough.
Burpee Climbers x 10 – Go down like a burpee but instead of a merkin, we do mountain climbers x 4 and then bounce back up for a cadenced 1

Hairband mile around this parking lot because I needed to count the trees

There are 6 trees in islands along the parking lot. Run to tree #1, do 1 burpee, run back. Repeato to tree #2 except you do 2 burpees there. Basically, it’s suicides mixed with increasing burpees. Round 1 finishes with 6 burpees at the farthest tree and run back.

Round 2 except this time, we begin with 7 burpees at tree #1 and increase throughout to 12 burpees at tree #6. Some grumbling when the PAX were told we’d start with 7 instead of 1. No thanks necessary.

Round 3 except this time, we start with 2 squats increasing by 2 at each tree mainly because we were starting to run short on time and I had stuff I still wanted to do. The trick here though was I told the PAX to push themselves harder running since we weren’t doing burpees.

Spontaneous cadenced SSH x 20 while we wait for the group to collect.

Mosey back to the Middle School and then a sudden right turn

Rail Slides Down
People’s Chair w/ air presses x 50
Rail Slides Up
People’s Chair w/ air presses x 55 (lots of chatter about me having to get 5 more in – Those were free of charge)

Mosey back to Middle School parking lot

SSH x 15 for filler
All out sprint from Island #1 to Island #2 to wrap it up. Thanks to TLS for the push.

COT
Thanks to TLS for taking us out and reminding everyone of what our job is as men.

Moleskine
Great push by everyone today. It was humid and the sweat was flowing today.

Sweat Shop earned his name for real today.

Glad The Late Show and Spielberg joined us. Better late than never.

Always great to have Shepherd out leading us in wisdom which also manifests as a look of incredulity when Round 2 began with 7 burpees instead of 1.

As I reminded us after the COT today, guard yourselves men. Especially your eyes. Discipline is needed for not only acts of physical strength but also the spiritual/mental strength needed to guard your eyes and keep them pure for the M only.
