Taking Balls and Kicking Names

QIC: Ringwald

Date: 04/20/2019

PAX: Back Pew, Candu, Care Bear, Cowbell, Fly-By, Iron Butt, Milkman, Moneyball, Sidekick, Skitch, Snowflake, Steam Engine, Sunburn, Threeskin, Venus, Vila, VSquared, Whittler

AO: The Landfill

Conditions

The air was dry, but the ground was not. An odd frigid 45 degree morning when the previous week was in the 70s.

COP

SSH x 25 IC
Willie Mays Hays x 12 IC
Slow Squats x 10 IC
Butt Kickers x 15 IC
Windmill x 12 IC
SSH x 25 IC
Arm Circles x 15 IC
Reverse Arm Circles x 15 IC
Shoulder Press x 15 IC
Moroccan Night Club x 15 IC
SSH x 25 IC
Plank Jacks x 12 IC
Mountain Climbers x 10 IC

The Thang

I assigned captains (Sunburn and Moneyball) and the old schoolyard picking began

Team Sunburn – Back Pew, Candu, Cowbell, Iron Butt, Skitch, Snowflake, Venus, VSquared, Whittler

Team Moneyball (aka “Consider the Bunt”) – Care Bear, Fly By, Milkman, Ringwald, Sidekick, Steam Engine, Threeskin, Vila

It was a tight race, but a walk-off bunt by Moneyball solidified the 5-4 win for the aptly named “Consider the Bunt” team.

5 penalty burpees per run scored were enforced.

COT

Very simple message – Count your blessings.

Moleskin

There were murmurs of manliness and bunting. Some people may have even been called names. Guess you had to be there.

Also, roughly 50% of the men either did bust or almost busted their backsides running around the bases. I thought Steam Engine broke his back once, and Vila slid halfway from third and still made it across home plate. We even had to move the playing field once due to the ground. Sorry Landfill groundskeeper, whoever you are.

    Plutarch: An Alexander wept for there were no more worlds left to conquer.
    By his late 20s, Alexander had conquered the entire known and civilized world. This quote proves that men need to things that are difficult, and absent those difficulties, we lose purpose. 

    It’s easy to get stuck in a rut, where you have no worlds to conquer. It’s easy to settle for less, and do less with more. But this is how men get lost, angry, bitter, and resentful. When we stretch ourselves, we should feel uncomfortable. We should feel nervous. If you’re not a little scared, you’re not pushing yourself hard enough. If there isn’t legitimate fear of failure, you’re not trying hard enough.

    And if you fail? Good. Good. More opportunity to train, to push yourself. Unlike Alexander, you’ve found a worthy adversary, and conquering it will feel that much better.

    Not a lot of mumblechatter this morning. People were too focused on not pulling a hammy I guess.

      Most of the time I have a quote or some life lesson to share, but today I just felt like keeping it simple. In the song “Sheep Go To Heaven” by Cake, there is the following lyric: “As soon as you’re born you start dying, so you might as well have a good time.” I think sometimes we focus too much on the stressful points in life and just need to turn our heads up instead of down and enjoy with what we are blessed. #blessed #livelovelaugh #pumpkinspicelatteisbae

      Not too much mumble chatter this morning. Mostly grumbles at the Q during the Seal Crawls. Sears catalogs were talked about at coffeeteria – aka the first Amazon. The women’s undergarment section seemed to be popular back in the day.

      Words of Wisdom

      Freed to Lead talks about “The Sifter” – a premise related to male relationships and how F3 solves the “Little particle” problem.

      Read the book, but the short of the long I explained is that most relationships you create between men are small particles, friendships that fall through when your life gets shaken up. F3 creates those “big particle” relationships, where friends stick through when you need tough advice or things get rocky.

      Moleskin

      Straight to the point:

      • Jack White may have married his sister, a fact we will never know for sure.
      • A few people questioned my rock selection and are now dead to me.
      • Venus cannot stand up during Bernie Sanders.
      • Iron Butt [purposefully] tumbled down the hill with grace, showing his young age and showing up some of the whipper-snappers.

      1. The Magnet – the workout brings you out here, envisioning yourself getting into shape.
      2. The Glue – what keeps you coming back. Everyone can think of that conversation or that funny thing that turned a horrible workout into a “good time.”
      3. The Dynamite – We all believe in something higher than ourselves.

      Freed to Lead talks about an FNG who splashed merlot and thought he “slowed down” the rest of the group, went and apologized to the Q. The Q responded, “You didn’t slow anyone down. Brother, you’re the reason we are here in the first place. You are why we are here.”

      Moleskin

      Several of the men experienced “dog crap seal crawls.” I was one of those men.
      Distant mumble-chatter included some deep thought: do ducks sometimes perform “human walks” and what do they call groups of humans walking together?

      My brain was not working well this morning. I kept calling Broad Jumps “Box Jumps” and may have referred to the Median as “Medium”.

      Nothing profound, but I had a long week and constantly caught myself thinking how stressed and worried I was. I had to remind myself that so many people on this earth have it far worse, that I should be ashamed for thinking I had it bad. I encouraged the men to take time when things get bad to think “is it really that bad?”

      Multiple witnesses heard Sidekick say that he had a fun time. I think he’s really a closet soccer fan but his southern values won’t let him admit it.

      The Thang

      In the spirit of Halloween and the recent $1.6B win of the Mega Millions, I had two grab bags of sorts for the group. I had the following number intervals on pieces of paper in one bag: 10, 25, 50, 100. I had the following exercises in the second bag: Merkins, Tricep Dips, LBCs, Squats, Flutter Kicks, Lunges, Arm Circles, Calf Raises, American Hammers. Chaos Ensued, and to the best of my knowledge, these were the repetitions that came out of it.

      Each PAX took turns picking a number and an exercise, and I did my best to keep them in order. Here is my attempt:
      25 – LBCs – IC
      50 – Arm Circles – OYO (25 each direction)
      25 – Merkins – OYO
      100 – Flutter Kicks – IC (to 50)
      10 – Lunges – OYO (10 Each Leg)
      50 – Calf Raises – OYO
      25 – BURPEES (JACKPOT) – OYO

      I regurgitated my speech from last week’s Q, that said people that Create energy tend to become leaders, and those that Take energy tend to become followers. The Count reminded the group that, in order to become a Great leader, you must first be a Great follower.

      Secretly I had a couple of Burpee tickets in the exercise bag, which ironically got chosen because relative to the number of other exercise tickets in the bag, chances of grabbing them were slim.
      No one had any plans of trick-or-treating this evening. Which goes to show, after college you just start slowing dying inside.

      5 burpee penalty (no flag)

      COT

      At my recent leadership conference for work….there are two types of people, those that take energy, and those that create energy. Those that create energy become leaders, those that take energy become followers. Create the energy necessary for those around you to see your leadership in everything that you do.

      The GPS Trace on Strava looked rather unusual this morning. YHC felt like an idiot for making the group do penalty burpees while the flag was nestled in his Jeep the whole time (I forgot, I’m human).
