SSH 20x

Right over left stretch

Left over right stretch

Quad stretch ( Had to get ready to be like JJ Watt)

The Thang

Moseyed to Starbucks side of JC Penny where there were knee wall planters. The Pax used the planter as their box to complete the following exercises with a partner as the timer. One Pax member would run to grass area while other PAX member did the exercise and the PAX member picked up where the other left off.

100 x Step ups

100 x decline Merks

100 x Jump ups

100 x incline Merks

100 x Squats

100 x Dips

Rinse and Repeat

Timer is partner jogging to curb and back

Mary:

15 WWII’s

30 sec plank

QIC said “ and were done” at the end of Planks used the wrong wording because I had more core exercises but the PAX took as we are done. Next time I will use the phrase “ recover”

Moleskins:

I am so glad I get to be a part of this great group of guys. My worries going into this Q was car traffic based on the location of the exercises and people killing their shins trying to be like JJ Watt. God took care of both of those worries for me from what I saw no cars passed by us racing to Starbucks ( or maybe I was focused) and no one skinned up their shins.

Lessons learned :

-Pick a Partner early got stuck with Grover and Frostbite they pushed me which was great

– This out of shape Marine can’t keep up with that Marine

– Quad stretch people struggle with balance

– Don’t say “ and we are done” at the end of exercise or the PAX will start heading to the Car

Thank you ACE on the Audible on doing an Indian Run back to the AO for Mary. I was reminded with my Oct 23rd devotion this morning “Read the Need and Lead”. Leaders need to respond to individuals based on their needs. It was good to keep the PAX together running back to the AO.

I hope everyone was pushed today and we keep pushing ourselves everyday.
