Nearly A Light-Duty *Monster* Truck Rally

0

All but one of the PAX got the pre-pre-blast memo to bring their pickup truck to the inaugural NTB beatdown of 2024. Hoping to shake-off the “bum” label given out by Dr. Try Hard in last week’s backblast, YHC was ready to bring the pain. In between the parking lot pre-huddle and the post-COT shooting crossbows at Dealer, the school security system captured footage of something like this:

WARMARAMA

Mosey down hill to the next parking lot to circle up for the welcome/disclaimer/core principles.

Begin with IC SSH while the stragglers catch up to the PAX and continue on with IC movements to get the body warmed up. Mosey further downhill to the handicap ramp.

COP #1 – Pure Bar

  • Partner up for (5) rounds of the following:
  • A: (10) Incline Merkins while partner holds chest-to-bar from the row position.
  • B: (10) Dips while partner holds chest-to-bar from the row position.

COP #2 – Long Crawl

  • With tight forearms and warm shoulders the PAX set off on a cross-country bear crawl. It went something like this:
  • Partners work together for the long journey from the handicap ramp to the top of Love Hill. Partner 1 begins to bear crawl while Partner 2 runs to the top of Love Hill and back to his partner.
  • When the running partner gets back to his bear crawling commrade, both stop and perform (25) WWII’s each.
  • Work as a team all the way to the top of Love Hill.

COP #3 – The Hot Light is On

  • For a fleeting moment, YHC considered calling a reverso on the Long Crawl and heading back to the handicap ramp. Self-preservation kicked in and we start to mosey towards the road. The PAX ran down the sidewalk across the face of the school, stopping at every streetlight for (5) merkins.
  • Mosey back to the flag for the final ten minutes.

COP #4 – 10 Minutes of License Plate Mary

  • Back at the flag, the PAX stood in front of their vehicles and added together the numbers on their license plates to get the rep count for the movement they would select for the rest of the PAX to perform.
  • Round 1: Anything but abs.
  • Round 2: Only abs.
  • Round 3: Bring it in tight for (10) Eskimo merkins. Time called.

COT

  • Numbers and Names
  • Announcements: Frozen Triangle on (2/10). GROWRUCK #47 (5/3-5/5).
  • Prayer Requests and YHC took us out.

NMS: YHC was pumped to bring a beatdown to the PAX and am always grateful for the opportunity to lead. There is a lot of positive chatter, training, and head-locking for GROWRUCK #47. If you have not signed up, YHC hopes you feel the positive momentum surrounding this event and decide to be a part of this transformative weekend. Don’t miss out and unlock a new level of acceleration in your life! The difficult things in life are the ones worth doing!
