COT
Leadership and Accountability:
Encouraged the group to sign-up for a VQ if they haven’t done so already. Even if you don’t feel ready to Q, sign-up anyways, it will motivate you to get ready. Leadership is earned through action, so uh, take action. This in turn will hopefully increase accountability. Briefly mentioned WuzntMe and I have an accountability chart we started in November to perform certain exercises every day of the month.
Moleskin
Burrito is known to be a leader in the Mumble Chatter category for the workouts. My goal was for the workout to be tough enough so he would be too winded to talk. I called for burpees any time he opened his mouth (at least that was the plan). This man can talk for days. No way I could have done a thousand burpess in 45 minutes. He either caught on to why I called spontaneous burpees, or he just enjoys pain. Either way, he was asking for more and more towards the end.
I later found out Burrito is a lawyer and ordained minister. I don’t think I will ever be able to keep him from talking.
This backblast was the most difficult to type and took forever due to technical difficulties. (I think I need a new computer for Christmas)
