Bambino had asked me to Q MASH some time ago and I had to turn him down because I couldn’t do Mondays.  But I had some schedule changes a few months ago and we finally made it work that I could Q.  The possibilities are endless at this AO and the hard part is narrowing it all down to what you want to take advantage of for the work out.

The Warm Up:

  • Hamstring stretches…20 slow count each leg for deep stretches
  • SSH…. 25 in 4 count cadence
  • WW2’s… 25 in cadence
  • Arm circles…small ones and large ones… we did a bunch

The Thang:

Run to the bottom of College Hill and meet up at the pull up bars.

11’s:   pull ups or modification at one end and merkins at the other.  The parking lot was longer than I was thinking and it took quite a bit more time than I was thinking it would, but this was a good work out.  Once 6:00 hit we cut everyone off and we ran to the steps that lead up to Todd Dining Hall.

More 11’s:  Dips at the bottom, then run to the top and back down for step ups.  I don’t think we got half way through at it was 6:10 and time to head back to the flag at the stadium.

COT:

Prayer requests:  The 13 yo Babe Ruth Team is doing great and we need to keep them in our prayers as they progress.  Four Leaf’s wife was hit from behind by a tractor trailer on the way home from Charlotte.  She is okay, but dealing with that is difficult.

Announcements:  A new boot camp AO starts tomorrow at the Stadium, same location as MASH.  Bono has the Q at The Good Fight Thursday and Bambino has it the following Thursday.

Moleskin:

This seems like such a short back blast for a sweaty grind this morning.  I was able to work out with a couple of guys I had not met before.  It’s always good when you get some time with someone new, and you are able to talk a couple of minutes and learn something more about them.  We all have some struggles and things we want to improve about ourselves and things that drive us to be better men.  Today we had men pushing other men and pulling us along when we needed it.  The rain held off and it was cool enough that the wet air was not so unbearable.
