Amazingly fresh & a bit brisk this morning at FMJ! Nice size group of 11 – we got to know each other a bit better, got some sweat going, & had some fun! Here’s what happened in brief: Warm-up -- on the mosey around the soccer field/pond we made several stops along the way for good mornings, windmills, calf stretch merkins, burpees, SSH, hill billies, imperial walkers, etc. Thang 1: Aussie pull-ups on the even numbers 20 on down.

Last workout of the week

Posted on May 10, 2019 | 2 minutes | 266 words |

20 Pax hit up the Naturest of all Parks in Apex for a Friday morning beatdown. YHC pre-blasted that we’d be using the pull-up bars and the turf. Let’s see how it went down. 0545 - Disclaimer and Pledge Warmup - No signature warm up. Instead we pranced the parking lot back and forth with butt kickers, high knees, shuffles, karaoke, and a couple warm up exercises. Thang 1 - We headed to the pond and partnered up, each getting a rock. [Read More]

Exercise To Be Named Later

Beautiful morning for a 0515 workout. Even better for a 0440 EC. Repeato enjoyed a ruck, YHC and Gym Tan Laundry enjoyed a 3 mile run while discussing rock climbing. (If you haven’t already, watch the Documentaries The Dawn Wall & Free Solo. In that order.) 9 other HIM showed up, disclaimer “was given” and off we went. Mosey to the median at the end of Regency Pkwy for a little Warm-Up and Advertising. [Read More]

Avoiding Potholes

It rained practically all night, and at 0500 the Steve indicated that Tank Top Tuesday was a real possibility. To that end, an even dozen of Carpex’ finest gathered at the flag at Salem Pond Park. Allegiance is pledged and off we go. Warm Up Mosey around the parking lot and then down the main drag to a street light that was actually on. We’ll forever refer to that as Mistake #1. [Read More]

Passions

The corporate waiver was delivered. The pax were tasked to learn everyone’s PASSIONs, there would be a test at the end, huh (deer in the headlights expressions ensued). It was then determined that one of Denali’s favorite meals is green bean casserole sans onions, Dinali will be our rabbit. Murmurings of WTF followe. Mosey over to Global Knowledge and paint the lines, then circle up for sundry warm-up exercises. I believe there were some SSH, good mornings, wind mills, and runners stretches. [Read More]
