  • Triple check numbers with no triple check???

    Nice even number of 6, perfect for a triple check but that wasn’t on the winky this morning so according to the trash collectors this is what went down.

    Mosey BTTF for a round of Ab Mary

    Florence took us out (Ooops) Numbers and Names (yes we did it in reverse)

    NMS:

    Whenever someone gets on the Lexicon before their Q, it could be a bad day. The Burpee Jackass Webb is no joke, just like the Jack Webb’s you think its not a problem until you get about half way through. The old men prevailed this morning with 4 of the 6 being on the respect side.

  • NBA/WBNA we are not!!

    Good morning….a nice group of 7 potential ballers(including a visit from Upchuck gracing us) came out to Timberwolf this morning for an early morning shoot around. A little mosey to the courts, a good WARMARAMMA(SSH, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Helicopters, Jazzercise, Don Quixotes, Cherry Pickers, Merkins and LBCs). After that a little extra stretching to help loosen things up, then time to train

    We started off 2 rounds of suicides(1 the regular way, 1 starting long). After that we started going into knockouts(the 2nd round was a long one). Along the way changed things up with a few full court drills shooting lay-ups, spot up jumpers(penalties if you air balled it or did not hit the rim). After that back to just shooting free throws(boy we were starting to show our lack of training). The penalty was 20 Merkins. Then onto shooting 3s(not good there), 30 Merkins once we hit 10 made 3s. The end was coming so a final round of knockouts(Nancy had the bank working) took home the final one.

    A little run back to the flag, Count-a-rama, Announcements(including the 4th Thursday lunch today at Rusty Taco). prayer led by YHC and we called it

    Everyone….be careful over the next few days. The temperatures will climb plus the humidity so make sure the fluids are a plenty, if you need to slow down, take a little extra break during a workout(please do). Even if you need to take a drink, run with it while training that’s ok. We have been lucky this summer so a blast we were overdue for

    Have a good one…see you tomorrow at Satan’s Hill

  • Did I make the team Coach?

    12 Studs laced up their high tops and broke out their sweat bands for a little Basketball conditioning this morning. Honeymoon was eager to find out at the end whether or not he made the team, but only the ELITE can earn their Midlo Tropic tanks. These 12 were just that. Great job fellas!

    Warmarama –

    Mosey to the Bball courts and do 1 lap around and circle up. SSH, Don Quixote, Imp Walkers, Ukr soldiers, Arm circles, Cherry pickers, dead man hang L/R/C, Merkins, Hold plank 20 sec, forearm plank 20 sec, LH high, RH high, back to plank. LBCs, Flutter kicks, Freddie Mercury, W/S wipers, Scorpion Kicks.

    The THANG –

    Drill 1:

    Triple check. P1 takes a bball and does full court suicides. Penalty of 3 burpees if you lose control of the ball. P2 does merkins, P3 does Dry Docks

    Drill 2:

    Triple check 2, cross over drill. YHC brought cones. Dribble to cone 1 cross over to opposite hand a dribble with that hand. Cross back over at next cone, repeat. There were 3 cones that stretched the length of the court. Same penalty if you lost control of the ball. P2 does squats, P3 does groiners.

    Drill 3:

    Cone Layup drill. P1 starts at the baseline and their is a cone at the top of the key and another at the elbow. P1 dribbles from baseline around the cone at the top around the cone at the elbow and does a layup. P2 does American Hammers, P3 does WW1s. This time it is a 5 burpee penalty for the team if any one player misses a lay up. I was surprised how many burpees had to be done here.

    Drill 4:

    KNOCKOUT

    Game 1 – Free throw line. I thought this would go quicker from the free throw line. Again, I was a bit surprised. Those knocked out complete called exercise until the next person gets knocked out, and that PAX member called the next exercise. Repeat until one is left standing.

    Game 2 – Split PAX in half and use both courts for 3 point line knock out. Once you were knocked out, run to the gate by light pole alley. YHC was feeling good and knocked down three straight 3s to end the second courts game early.

    Game 3 – Winners on one side, Consolation game on the other. Back to free throw line due to time. Pax determined whether or not they were winners and what game to join. Once knocked out, mosey around the school and back to flag.

    COT –

    Announcements – State Farm VQ tomorrow at Satan’s Hill, School of Rock this Saturday at Rock and Roll. Ms and 2.0s to join after the standard beat down at 8. DTH is bringing watermelon, cookies, treats for the kids. Herme brought us home.

  • Who’s been here?

    YHC was back from the Charm city and looking at the Q sheet was surprised to see it empty at 8pm? YHC signed on the dotted line and away 8 warriors sent into the gloom. According to the school’s maintenance staff still working this summer this is what happened.

    COP- 20 each SSH, LBC; 10 Each DQ’s, Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperial Walkers, , Copper head squat, Dead man hang, Merkins, Box cutters,

At the halfway point we grabbed the B-balls and had 3 rousing games of knockout with full court layups (penalty of 5 burpees if missed), Foul shooting and other fun games.

  • Lonely Wolves No More

    7 of the SOJ wolfpack tackled the Gloom on this Sunny and 70 degree morning. The day is set to be a great one, so we all attacked it early to ensure we make it one. Man what a difference this year during SOJ takeover. Last year during this week, just two Pax posted at T-wolf during take over week. This year, we got to 7 as the rest of the Pax are spread around RVA. Just shows the strength in numbers we have added to SOJ and the committed PAX that have joined us this year. Well done gents! YHC is very happy to see that even when we are spread thin, we can still post some numbers at our primary AOs. According to the driver of the Dodge Ram that seriously wanted to join us, here is what went down.

    COP

    • Mosey around the parking lot and back to center to circle up
    • SSH, Imp Walkers, Ukr Soldiers, 30 sec of high knees, 30 sec butt kickers, calf raises L/R/C, Arm Circles big and small, Merkins, LBCs, Flutter Kicks, Heels to Heaven, Windshield Wipers

    The THANG-

    • Mosey to the hill by the entrance of the school for some SLOW 11s. At the bottom WW1s, at the top hand release merkins. Slow variation is waiting for the 6 at the bottom and running up the hill each time in a different fashion. 1. Mosey 2. Bernie 3. Karaoke facing school, 4. Karaoke opposite direction. Repeat for 5-8. 9. Bunny hop to the light pole and mosey to finish. 10. Broad jump from light pole.
    • Mosey to Love Hill. 2 minutes non-stop hill sprints. This was a burner and felt like 10 minutes.
    • Mosey to bus parking lot. There are 10 light poles and we did increasing reps of different exercises at each light pole. 1 Burpee, 2 Groiners, 3 Plank jacks, 4 Burpees, 5 Groiners, 6 Plank Jacks, 7 Burpees, 8 Groiners, 9 Plank Jacks, 10 Burpees
    • We finished at the end of the long curb. From there we put hands to curb and did an indigenous plank walk. Rear runs to the front as Pax plank walk to the left. As we reached the gunner we call it out and sprint All You Got (AYG) to the end of the parking lot and 50% back. We had time to repeat this twice then back to the flag. Time

    Today was a great welcome back from a two week vacation for YHC. I needed to shock out the jet lag and today did just that. An awesome sweat that got us going. It is so great to see a solid core at each of the AOs. Last year there were so many days where just 2 or 3 Pax would show and now we have gotten consistent with our numbers and who we expect to show. So awesome to see the strength in numbers. It’s been a few weeks since YHC has led so I nearly forgot numbers and names, the PAX quickly reminded me. Thanks fellas!

    Announcements/COT –

    Please get with YHC or DTH for list of any brothers we haven’t seen in a while that we want to reach out to. Also and FNGs that posted once or twice but didn’t show after. For the rest read Slack. Prayers, we are better together. Thanks for the PAX and Prayers for positive impact at home and in the community.

    Thanks for a great morning fellas. Iron Sharpens Iron.
