11 men joined YHC in the gloom for a “burn off that cake and beer” #Piledriver circuit.

0515 YHC arrives
0520 Flags are planted
0525 Pax arrives while The Q rolls out his hammies
0530 Let’s go. A lousy disclaimer was given and we were off to a mosey….

…around the parking lot islands with a little high knees and butt kickers mixed in.  Then, YHC called a single file “Native American” run around the center islands.  Last man off the back runs in the opposite direction and rejoins the line in the front.  Repeato until all Pax have made it through the line.  Total run approx 1 mile.

We then mosey toward the far soccer field doing a little Toy Soldier along the way.  Once we arrive at the bleachers YHC leads a little…

Warm-O-Rama

1. Shoulder Tap Merkin x10 IC
2. WWII’s x10 IC
3. SSH’s x10 IC

The Thang

You against you today.  Only 3 exercises with a lap (1/4) mile in between going something like this:

10 Shoulder Tap Merkins, 20 WWII’s, 30 SSH’s – run a lap
9 Shoulder Tap Merkins, 18 WWII’s, 27 SSH’s – run a lap
8 Shoulder Tap Merkins, 16 WWII’s, 24 SSH’s – run a lap
Etc, etc.  Always decrease the merkins by 1, the WWII’s by 2 and the SSH’s by 3 until you get to “0”.
Pick up the six when done
Total mileage approx 2.5 miles
Mosey back to the flags

You guys are the reason I get up in the morning.  To see 11 guys at the Vet on a muggy Monday morning, getting after it, motivates me to no end.  Proud to see The Body and everyone else giving it 110% today.  You men make me proud to be part of this AO.  I am glad to see how we are growing this year.  Let’s keep up the good work and continue to be #strong. Aye!

Pray for those brothers who were not our there with us this gloom, for whatever reason.
