Beautiful morning at Stonecutters! After a brief shuffling around, we had a disclaimer , a (mini) flag, a mini stroll around the parking lot, and a mini warm up. Then everyone picked up a rock for each hand and we gathered under a streetlight. An exercise was volunteered as we walked around the perimeter of the parking lot with rocks over our head, we stopped at every light for incremental of the called exercise. there are 9 streetlights. We carried rocks overhead, out in front, side to side, and regular. We did curls, overhead press, tricep extensions, squats, and nut crackers (naturally). We ended with several rounds of Mary with each Pax calling a stretch or an exercise.

Another strong ending to another action-packed week! Let’s recap it together… but only after 5 (make that 6) on the 1.1 mile EC, at least 3 others for other various ECs, an FNG Check, a mission, and a pledge.

Mosey to the docks for a warmup. After some standard options, honor the kickoff of the EC battle with 15 mountain climbers (since although the official EC doesn’t hit the Birklands, it very well should).

Pause on the Lochmere guard rails for quick Dips, Erkins, Derkins. Next, we travel over the wall and head toward the rock pile, but not before executing some Catalina W(h)ine Makers.

Round of BRAVEs to remember the Andrews in our midst, but this time with a traveling rock. Stops 1, 3, and 5 at the bottom of Heartwood Hill, stops 2 & 4 at the top. Start with Bigboysitups, add Rocksquats, add . TY4YL Sbarro in calling out that the top was right next to a house and we had some volume this AM. We’ve lasted in Lochmere this long, let’s not throw it away now.

Rocks back to the pile, gather by the pickle. Thursday reminded us that some leaders are so unlocked that the rest of us are just trying to catch up. Partner up, catch me if you can. The catched partner does Fruit Loop’s most memorable exercise from this week’s Stonecutters – 5 World’s Worst Squat. Three laps, then circle up to celebrate the EC Challenge victor with 18 Astrojacks.

Back past the flag via Lilly Atkins for some Bolt 45s, pickle, Boat Canoes, back to the flag for one burpee.

Prayers up for Astro’s SIL/baby, and Yogi’s journey. Super honored to lead. Thank you all for leading by posting for the men to your left and right.

Terribly planned, but wonderfully executed Q this morning. The PAX gathered for a pledge and then ran to Texas Ranger’s favorite hill for some sevens, but it was too dark and not enough light, so YHC called an audible and we moseyed over to the rails for a solid chest workout and then moseyed back to the flag for some Mary. 2.5 miles and a variety of chest exercises were covered. Thank you for the opportunity to lead this morning. MIAGD!

Men, workouts, bells and blocks…all around. Was a regular Who’s-Who’s of South Cary with a Carpex running crew mixed in. Great turnout overall, but the bootcamp was mine and so 8 of us took off for the following extensive workout:

Blackjack w/ Mtn. climbers up top of stairs and WWI’s (not 2’s) at the bottom.

We had a late arrive, the infamous JOE SMITH sneak his way into the PAX to make it 9 for bootcamp.

YHC had the pleasure and honor to lead seven great men this morning. We started off with the Pledge and then moseyed over to the boat ramp for warmups. The warmups included 10 standard burpees part way through b/c the PAX thought counting was optional.

After warmups, we headed to the base of the spillway to select our personal rocks for the Rock Dora. Partners were selected and we plowed through 100 rock squats, 200 rock rows and 300 rock presses (on back) with pickle runs alternating between partners.

Once the DORA was completed we did a rock carry with some additional rock exercises sprinkled in. We put rocks back where we found them and then headed back to the flag for COT.

Announcements were made. Prayers and praises were raised and YHC took us out with prayer.

*Four PAX showed for the KB EC which was a hit and definitely worthy of becoming a standard EC. Nugent/Wide Right TY4YL!

Lastly, huge shout out to the AMBRR participants, SAG and the BRR Bros. Great to see everyone crushing it.

MIAGD!!!

Loch & Load – “Bald is Beauty”

5 mile EC crushed by 2.
2 for some cinderblock love.
13 for some boot camp.

Journeyed down to the park to warm up and then hit a 4-Corners of Burpees, OH claps, LBC’s & Squats.

First people merkin run back to the lot.
Dirkin & Irkin curb beat down.

Circle of Mary.

The chatter was solid, the sweat was pouring, and if putting in work was business then “business was goooooood.”

As mentioned in other channels – kudos for backpacks. Posted in the 3rdF channel an opportunity to serve a single mom Friday Aug.5th to help move.

MIAGD Fellas!
