Exciting times at The Crossing with our very own State Trooper REACHER stepping up to Q and both Chaplain and Birdman stepping up to bring an FNG. YHC was asked to write up a brief BB for Reacher, so here’s an effort to recall his completely random and made-up-as-he-went beatdown:
The THANG:
WARMERAMA:
- Welcome & Disclaimer
- Various stretches, a handful of merkins, and a run around the parking lot
COP #1:
- Collection of reps including but not limited to squats, merkins, holding elbow plank, and partnered up for PLT’s
COP #2:
- Triple up for a few cycles of derkins with feet resting on planking partner’s back and timer running a big loop
COP #3:
- Run down the hill and partner up for a few rounds of wind sprints up the hill, walking down, then a few rounds of bear crawls up the hill and walking down
COP #4:
- Calf raises to exhaustion on a curb (Chaplain for the win), while those tapping early plank for the SIX
COP #5:
- Mosey up to a grassy area for carious reps including WWII’s, LBC’s, and others – sometimes called IN CADENCE
- F3 REVIEW BY DTH – PAX hold squat while we review the Mission, Credo, and 5 Core Principles
COP #6:
- Back to the hill for lunges up and walk down, then backward lunges up, and probably other stuff I’m forgetting
BTTF:
- A few minutes of stretching
COT:
- Counterama # 7
- Namerama – Welcome GRIDLOCK and DU HAST
- Announcerama (see Below)
- BOM Prayer
NMS: Reacher says he was glad for the opportunity to lead, and enjoyed flying by the seat of his pants to come up with a decent whooping for our two FNG’s. Chaplain’s FNG David works in engineering for traffic control – welcome GRIDLOCK! Birdman’s FNG is a young man working in politics and loves history and philosophy and speaks fluent German – welcome DU HAST! (some of you may remember this famous song by Rammstein). Way to put in the work fellas! Keep posting!
