Introduction
Today’s workout was our second official day as F3 Northwest Hwy – BASE CAMP, and my official VQ (though I Qed twice during Black Ops). I brought my Bear inspiration from my FNG day at the opening of The Bear, as well as a fun looking back blast from Aladdin, and a fun warm up from Ebenezer.
Warm-O-Rama
A little reveille in the background during disclaimer for fun.
Arm Circles
Winnie the Poohs (and of course we played the theme song!)
Chest Strech
Back Stretch
Hamstring stretch
Downward dog (focus on calfs)
Mosey up Mt. Reimer and back
The Thang
Bear Crawl 1 – 2 – 3
Dora’s obnoxious neighbor who throws wild parties all night long. Partner up, perform 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, and 300 squats as a team, while partner 1 is doing the 1 – 2- 3, Partner 2 bear crawls down and jogs back.
Bear Crawl Inch Worm
PAX lines up head to to feet in plank position. The man in the back of the line bear crawls to front of the line and yells front and next man does the same thing until whole PAX has done it.
Bear Merkin walk
Bear crawl with a merkin every step, merkins should be done with alternating hand and food under your body.
Bears & Blocks
Get on all fours (like you are doing a bear crawl) with your Cinder Block on the grass between your knees or feet. Reach between your legs and pull the Block across the grass passed your head. Now, bear crawl forward until the Block is between your feet again, and keep repeating across the length of the field.
Flag Mout
Run the flag up to the top of Mt. Reimer, plank till all PAX are in.
Circle of Trust
Today we talked about baggage, and understanding that everyone is dealing with something, and sometimes while someone may look fine, they may have BIG issues underneath. Remember that in daily interactions with people.
No prayer requests, end with the Lord’s prayer.
Naked Man Moleskin
I saw Aladdin’s Bear workout a few days ago and it spoke to me, I really enjoyed tying it to my VQ and my FNG site. I also enjoyed being able to pull a pre-planned workout from another’s backblast during my crazy busy week.
Yet again, we surprised some “young people” out to watch the sunrise. I wasn’t exactly planning on starting the mosey to the top of the mount, but seeing the young couple up there again, I figured we had to say hi. Then ending on top for the COT, the three girls up there and their vocal WTF as we came up the hill was priceless. While I think a lot of of find amusement here, I do appreciate that we are all courteous at the same time and share the space respectfully.
