Introduction
🐻🐻🐻 PREBLAST 🐻🐻🐻 THE BEAR🐻🐻
🐻🐻 FRIDAY, 4/9/2021 5:15am-6:00am 🐻🐻
What a week of some great Q’s! Between the black diamonds, OCR training sessions, run clubs, and bike clubs, it’s evident that we have some great choices (and leaders) every day.
Teddy’s March is coming up on Saturday so if you’re interested in saving your legs, come to The Bear tomorrow. We will focus on the upper body and core and explore the AO just to keep the blood flowing.
Bring your coupon, good form, and mumblechatter tomorrow, but bring your HC today in the thread..
4:50am: Rolled in the parking lot with a little rain, 50 degrees, negligible wind. Scouted the AO to make sure all the benches were where I thought they were. Got back to parking lot at 5:05am, most PAX were already there…except Chazz, he rolled in at 5:14am with his hair on fire and shoes untied.

Circle of Trust
This is one of my favorite weeks of the year. Final Four last weekend followed up with the Masters this weekend. Jim Nantz has it made…
One of the coolest thing about the Masters is that if you win the tournament one time, you are invited back to play in the tournament every year for the rest of your life. That’s quite the celebration of past success. In the real world we are conditioned to forget about the past and look to the future–learn from your mistakes. I think we can also learn from our past successes, and we should celebrate them.
Naked Man Moleskin
I was a little shaken this morning when I had 2 ranking officers of the form police in my presence. Nacho and Eddie were on my hip the entire time so I had to make sure I was on top of my game.
I was a little nervous of doing all of these exercises in cadence (well, half of them. Thanks Nacho) but I think it was great to keep the group together the whole time.
There was minimal waiting around. I actually had another round scheduled, but ran out of time. It was gonna be assisted pullups, negative pullups, and dead hangs.
The Partner A group dominated.
Coffeeteria went well. It ended abruptly when one of the PAX let last nights tacos get the best of him…you know who you are.
