This was different

Preamble:

Weather conditions: Low 60’s and clear skies.  Great morning for this transplanted pax to lead his first BD as an official F3 Alpha member ……again. It was May of 2016 the last time YHC was living in the area and apart of F3 Alpha.  YHC visited a great deal when able but a different feeling when back for real!!!

5:30 am hit and the 9 #HIM were all ready.  After a quick mosey to front of the school, disclaimer was given and YHC asked for the Five Core principles. Those were given with only a few corrections although “Goonies Never Say Die” was spot on and should be considered as a replacement for one of the five.

Warm-O-Rama:

• Happy Jacks (SSH IC to 5 then two jump squats) repeato till Q says stop.
• Mtn Climbers
• Crab Cakes
• Groiners 

After a mosey around the school and to the big field.

• Lt. Dan’s (1 Squat:4 Lunges, 2:8, 3:12, 4:16, 5:20)

The Thang:

Four Corners w/ Escalator:

10 Broad Jump Burpees

20 Bonnie Blair’s

30 Bobby Hurleys

40 Boxcutters

Mosey towards Crabapple Rd. and back to front of school.

Catch Me If You Can (Groups of 3)

• 5 Burpees for pax in back and then sprint to catch his two partners.  Two pax running mixed up mosey, side shuffle and back pedal. X 3 rounds

*During this exercise pax were instructed to get to know each other a little better. How did you get nickname? Something that your partner might not know about you?

After complete the pax moseyed to the hill by baseball field.

Clock Shoulder Taps – IC (12, 3, 6, 9, 12) then back to the flag for some COP.

Howling Monkeys for 2 rounds – Plank x 10 count per pax – followed by some Mary:

Freddie Mercury, American Hammers, Dying Cockroaches, Dolly, Rosalita

COT:

Reminder about Thursday’s 3rd F at Lebanon Church – CPR training put on by Roswell Fire Dept.

Praise for YHC’s son who’s at a LAX camp and having a ball. Grateful he is expanding his horizons 🙂

Prayers for those injured pax and all those not with us this am.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Great job by all today and big shout outs to Snacks & Brutus. Always impressed when the 2.0’s are out early putting in work!

Sprocket had to dip out early for a “work event”…or was he really just not feeling the Catch Me If You Can??

YHC wasn’t sure if Cindy’s were required at Bad Apple as there was an ask the night before whether they were needed or not.  Evidently, Bad Apple likes to live up to their name and use Cindy’s, Kettle Bells’ or even Buckets on multiple occasions a week.

It is okay though as YHC believes the pain was delivered this am as he heard Rusty say right before Countorama/Nameorama….. well, “This was different” 🙂

Honored to lead the men of #BadApple this am looking forward to many more beatdowns #ITG here!
