Honored that Fuse participated in Imperial Walkers as I was able to eliminate his opt out stretch of Jimmy Dugans. Interesting to note that F3 Exicon states group should be walking clockwise around Q while doing these. To Fuse credit, could not find any details on benefits of exercise, but usually allows for time to count pax and think of ideas for Q.
THE THANG:
Partner up Hand Slap Bobby Hurleys and Hand Slap Merkins as partners went opposite way around the parking lot islands.
Found that Hatchet and I believe it was Endo some how only hand slap with right hands, interesting technique. Guess not willing to reverse the grip. Also noted that Fuse and I either were what felt like 2 yards apart and having to outreach to touch hands or close enough to feel the warmth of each others breath. Either way both felt uncomfortable.
Go over to the hill on backside of Publix and broke into teams of 3. P1 stayed at the top doing squats, P2 runner, P3 at bottom doing merkins/big bois. Little stumble out gate, but quickly got in sync and did 5 rounds. Posse competitive juices flowing up the hill
Cutlet came rucking by, and called audible. New plan was that Cutlet was to ruck up/down the hill and Pax were to do suicides with end point being Cutlet. Did various exercises at top and each time you reach Cutlet along his march do 1 Burpee and run back to top. After Cutlet was storming up the hill first time, Pax (Fuse) got a little chirpy advising that the Q did not time it well, so quickly opted to send Cutlet back down the hill and keep going for total of 5 rounds. Was great way to combine everyone that launched and ensured everyone was pushing.
Next we got in Conga or Congo line? Either way we got in line and got to march with Cutlet leading the charge as we did overhead claps, seal claps, and Pick ’em, Pick ’em, Pick ’em (Cherry Pickers) and drop in the bucket (drop.drop…drop…drop). Went to wall for a start of a web of shoulder press and squats (facing the wall). No science behind reason needing to face the wall, besides YHC just wanted chance to work on his hand shadow puppets for COT photos. Release Cutlet back to COT and every time you catch him 10 speed skaters. Finished after lights turned on, but figured close enough we should finish our beer (exercises).
Moleskin
Powerful moment witnessed this am, as YHC showed up to 80/80 discussion saw group praying over Brenda (DD worker) and seen her move to tears. She earlier must have told group about funeral for her 13 yr old cousin who was killed last week in drive-by in Pageland and issues facing with family going into funeral today. She asked for prayers and as true HIMs they prayed over her and had an impactful moment. Humbling to walk into and encounter, keep up great work.
