It would appear that @dragon DOES listen to everything and take notes as indicated by the fact that he remembered the exchange yesterday about the lack of pulling exercises in bootcamps. Today, we cured that. What’s interesting is that because so many of us have been doing this for a while, that even coupon squats are easy. But, when you make a pulling exercise such as pulling a coupon across the payment, it crushes even the strongest PAX.
@howitzer put up the cones for us today of which YHC is truly grateful for lest we be smashed by the Tuesday 1st of the month trash truck. Luckily, the cones deterred his approach and left us unharmed and unmoved. Thus, always Karen Kone it. That reminds me that we probably need another set to ensure coverage and protection for all of our workouts, including #ao_dark_forest and days when @macgyver or I are not at #ao_penitentary.
An important thang that all Qs should adopt is the practice of the Q Moment. Weave in some words of wisdom near the end of the workout. This can be anything of your choosing: life lesson, words of wisdom, scripture, famous quotes. But, take this opportunity very seriously as in the twilight between a good beatdown and coffeeteria, there exists an opportune time for instruction and shaping. Don’t waste it.
Speaking of not wasting it, our man @howitzer said something that is really important. “When I’m the Q, I no longer think about the workout the night before…I think about it four days before it.” Think about that. @howitzer is expressing something that is profoundly important here for the Qs. Leading is a serious undertaking. It involves planning, testing, reflection, inspection. If you are a Q, do not “Show up, and throw up.” That is, do not plan the workout AT the workout. Spend some time. Write it down. Overplan. Change it up. Reorder it. Make it perfect. There is no pride to be found in, “I’ve been doing this for so long that I don’t need to plan it.” Personally, I’ve been doing this weekly for four years and I STILL write it down. Join me.
Great job today guys. Way to not waste it and seize the day! Good luck out there.
