thepatriot Some Oldies and Team Race

Date: 2024-11-01
AO: thepatriot
Q: Jenner
PAX: Big Short, Bone, Boardwalk, Enron, Flipper, Shake ‘n’ Bake, Rim Fire, citrus, Summit, Booking, Strange Brew FNGs: None
COUNT: 12
WARMUP: SSH, LBAC, Rockettes, WMH, Imperial Walkers, Downward dog, Cobra Kai, broad jump burpees-in-place – where you do not make any progress and you start and end with your feet in the same position, Al Gore. Count the PAX so each will have a number.

THE THANG: Mosey over towards the arena and demonstrated the following four stations.

1. Swing Overs (R) at the bicycle racks
2. One-Armed Erkins x8, x5, x3, x2, x1 at the “Aussie pull-up” bars behind the arena. 3. Toe-taps (R) around the arena
4. Balls to the Wall w/ Should Tap and Traversal (R)

Circle up in the middle for 10 air-squats. Then, repeat the four stations and traverse to the (L)eft instead of the (R)ight.

Split the groups into evens and odds. Racing from the back of the arena, evens run clockwise and odds run counter clockwise around the school to the basketball courts. From basketball baseline, broad jump to half court. Perform 10 air squats. Lunge back to baseline. Perform 10 burpees.

Evens become Team Hammer and pick up sledge hammer. Odds become Team Block and pick up cinder block. Both Teams run Ricky Bobby with the front PAX getting passed the coupon each time to the football end zone.

Team Race: Team Hammer starts at the 0yd line and perform broad jump burpees while Team Block sprints 100 yds, performs a Kracken Burpee (burpees with 3 hand release merkins), and sprints back and tags 1 PAX from the other team to halt their progress. The sledge hammer is then moved to the farthest Team Hammer PAX, i.e. Bone got to the 28yd line until he was touched. Then flip flop. Team Block was able to reach the 25yd line and placed their block there. Then, Team Hammer started broad jump burgess from the 28yd line and made it to about the 55yd line before last PAX was tagged. Team Hammer was feeling so confident of winning, they gave Team Block an advantage by committing to doing not one, but two Kracken Burpees. Team Block almost made a comeback with a last minute dive by Boardwalk to the 56yd line, but VAR showed he was tagged at the 50. Team Hammer wins, but we call it a tie and all PAX celebrate with two Kracken Burpees.

MARY: 100 LBCs

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Nov. 9 Veteran’s Day CSAUP, the Grunt. The successfulness of The Patriot attendance spawned the creation and soft launch of a new Friday AO at Tuckahoe Park – see tuckahoe channel for more info.

MARY: Throwdown Hoedown

ANNOUNCEMENTS: The Grunt 11/9 0700-0900 Lincoln Memorial, some other stuff I wasn’t paying attention to because I was nervous about my COT.

COT: COT: F3 is not just a workout group. It is a community. What drives most of us to wake up at a ridiculous hour? Push our bodies to the limit of potential failure? For me, it is not necessarily the fitness aspect. It’s knowing that I get to hang out with 10-20 other guys at a beatdown, most of whom are in similar life stages, cracking jokes, working hard and then moving on to challenge the day.
This is what is most gratifying to me. The workout has become secondary. It’s the brotherhood and friendships that are forged those dark hours in the gloom. I know that at any point in time, if I need help with something. Moving a couch. Building a shovel flag. Or I just want to grab a beer and blow off some steam. The only thing I need to do is to fire off a message on Slack and there will 10+ guys willing to lend a hand. This is an amazing gift.
This is a community. Let’s continue to spread the word and grow this community. We all have circles of friends, work circles, acquaintances, etc. There are many more to introduce to this brotherhood and pass this gift along. Go out and invite an FNG. “If you ain’t growin’, you’re dying” – Major Payne
