WARMUP: SSH, BACs forward/backward, Grady Corns, Hamstring stretches on benches, Cherry Pickers, Plank Jacks

THE THANG:
Due to the rain, we met under the PAV-A-LON and did most of the workout there. Tabata style, mixture of arms, legs, and Abs, a bit Spirit-led. When the rain let up for a bit, we moseyed to the parking lot for some more spirit-led activities at the four corners, making sure to get our fronts and backs wet (hand release merkins and LBCs). Back to the PAV-A-LON to finish out the Tabata workout.
MARY: Wall sits until time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Backblast Ap, F3 in the Nude a week from Saturday, 2nd F at Abacus’s that same day, FORGE coming up late September. Prayers for the Macon PAX and the family of our brother that fell there this week.
COT: Showed a Coach K video from the show The Bear that talks about leadership. Unfortunately , the video was too soft to hear, but the takeaways were as follows: 1. Success requires you to CHANGE YOUR LIMITS. NOT EASY!!
 Expect there to be bumps in the road. Failure.
 Don’t accept that Failure as your final destination. Change and adapt and get back at it.
 There’s definitely a fear factor here.

2. TEAMWORK. You can’t do it by yourself. Surround yourself with people that will help you succeed, not drag you back.
 Don’t confuse criticism (designed to help you improve) with negativity (holding you back)

3. LISTEN. Don’t just talk. CONVERSE
 Collaborate to find solutions. Not only will you be able to draw on others for ideas, but when you ask for and incorporate their advice, they become more invested too.

4. What an interesting life to be a leader. EMBRACE IT.

Heavy Day Battle for the Ghost Flag at the Equalizer

THE SCENE: Gloomy, but not too humid
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER: Done and done 
WARM-O-RAMA:
Basic Blindside-y warmup things: SSH, LBAC each way, This, That, tempo squats
THA-THANG:
Sometimes things change. Because it was a heavy day, the Q was expecting a lower number in attendance. What he forgot was that the Ghost Flag was in attendance… so we had visitors.

Quick Mosey to Picnic Table near the Tennis Courts and partner up. Each group will draw a card from the deck, multiply the number of the card by 10 (all face cards are “10” and Aces are “15). Each group is in charge of completing that number of reps of each exercise represented by card suit. Jokers are automatically 25 squats with either the 40# or 60# sandbag on shoulders.

  • Spades: Lunges and Imperial Squat Walkers
  • Clubs: Merkins and 2 count Shoulder Taps
  • Diamonds: BBS and American Hammers
  • Hearts: Flutter Kicks and Hello Dollys

After all the cards were taken, each group were asked to “give up” their highest, lowest, and one other card of their choosing back to the pile.

Once time was called, all of the Shamrock & Asylum PM combined their cards into piles and played a game of WAR. After one round, Shamrock ended with 23 cards and Asylum PM ended with 6. Each group did that # of burpees. Equalizer guys joined in to help.

Asylum PM grabbed the Ghost Flag having 5 guys at the workout!

MARY:
Not Enough Time.
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
15 HIMs, 0 FNGs, and a certain number of Ruckers (unknown to the Q)
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
