Preamble:

YHC preblasted that our Cinco de Mayo themed celebration would be a coupon-centric circuit training bonanza. A total of 15 PAX posted to this pre-dawn fiesta where sweat & work would justify those post-sunset tacos and margaritas.

Warm-O-Rama:

One pre-runner patrolled the Hooch surroundings while YHC laid out a circuit training course before the clock struck 0530. Standard disclaimer followed by SSH, WMH, IW, AC Fwd/Bwd, MP in cadence. The PAX coupon carried to the course.

The Thang:

The Cinco Circuit worked as follows:
  • PAX partnered up (6 pairs plus one group of 3).
  • Each of several rep stations instructs PAX A to do a number of reps of a specified exercise while PAX B assumes a static hold position. Alternate AMRAP until the timer triggers.
  • The timer station has rucks which the partners don and mosey a 1/4 mile course.
  • The ruckers' return is the trigger for all PAX to rotate to the next station.
  • Exercise stations are documented in the above graphic (thank you ChatGPT). YHC removed a few of these stations to fit our 15-man (7-group) crew.
YHC fired up a high-energy Mexican / Latin workout mix to fit the occasion, the PAX worked hard, and YHC called time at 0615.

COT:

Thanksgiving for positive news in a family member's struggle with a medical condition. Prayers for provision and a terminally ailing father.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

YHC pulled bookended Q's Friday & Monday. Doing so is a growth opportunity for YHC as much as it is a strengthening opportunity for all involved. Honored and thankful.
