Those Star Jumps Gave Us a Break
EC: YHC solo, but it was flat… that was nice. I just ran til I ran out of lights.
FNG’s: none
YHC did s two-for in the FV this week. I was less familiar with this site, but between running EC and using parking lots… we had plenty of work to do. Thanks to my FV pax for welcoming me (from the Springs) as I had the honor of Q at a couple of your home turf places in SouthWake. 7 pax zipped around parking lines in strong fashion this morning at the Grave!
Warm Up: Good Mornings, Sir Fazios F/R, Seal Claps, Daisy Pickers, Hillbillies, and Frankenstein’s all x10 IC. Warm up mosey around community center stopping along the way for 13 ct. of SSH, Mountain Climbers, and Imperial Walkers.
The Workout: There are 14 parking spaces on each side of the strip that we chose in the KG parking lot. We used those several times for our workout today. Round 1: Pax typewriter crawl all parking curbs and the end island along both sides of the “zipper”. (28 parking spaces). Round 2: similar to round 1 except pax do “happy feet”/fast feet all the way around. Round 3: we did Burpee/Star Jumps alternating in each spot all the way around. It was at this point that Finkle stated “at least we had a break with the star jumps”. I thought most pax hated those too? Round 4: Slightly different here. Pax lunge walk and on each stripe, they stop and do a Prisoner Squat for that number of stripe (ie. Stripe 1= 1 squat, stripe 14= 14 squats etc.) The pax did start back at 1 when going to the other side of spaces as Norm mentioned the time it would eventually take to complete this otherwise. But…different idea for a different Q! YHC had I think the perhaps toughest round of all planned for round 5, but time was running low so…
We did clockwork merkins as a pax until all pax and YHC twice, called a number.
Mary: Descending ladders of exercises with 15,10, then 5 IC counts. Exercises were: Dying Cockroach, Homer to Marge, Freddie Mercury’s, and LBC’s.
Announcements: Q shift for next two weeks, check the Slack and let the smack talk begin! Mulch is good for this week, but needed for future weeks. During Q shift weeks, we are taking donations for the residents at Healing Transitions. Bring clothes for HS week, bring hygiene items for FV week. Let’s help these fellas out!
T-Claps (Recognition):Norm And YHC for parking our vehicles as such to save 1 parking space of pain!
Prayer: Military, first responders, our Nation. We as men to be a source of peace in chaos, and to bring unity during a very divided time. To live 3rd! Honor to lead men.
