12 Days of Christmas, Foxworthy Style

EC run: 187, Skidmark, LED, Cowboy, Lipstick, Yogurt

Yoga EC: Crosby, Emeril, Pikachu, Sliderule, Wiggly

PAX of 22 enjoyed a helping of redneck culture on this cool, rainy morning

Warm Up: SSH 25, GM 20, shoulder/tricep stretches 10 count, Moroccan night clubs (20 shoulders back), Fozio arm circles F10/R10, erkins 10.

The Workout: Following Jeff Foxworthy’s 12 days, Yogurt dished out the following circuit. Partners run opposite direction in loop, converge and complete the Day’s exercise reps upon three meetings (3x).

12 Pack o’ Bud – Wheelbarrow, 1+ burpees upon switch, modify to lunge walk as needed (try to keep it under 12 burpees for the circuit)
11 wrastlin’ tickets – No wrastlin’, but broke back merkins instead (3×11)
10 o’ Copenhagen – That tin goes in your back pocket, so on your 6, then 10 WWIIs (3×10)
9 years’ probation – 9 prisoner squats – self explanatory (3×9)
8 table dancers – 8 pickle pounders – self explanatory (3×8)

No time for the following 7 day of Christmas:
7 packs of Redman – Again, that ‘backer goes in your back pocket (LBCs)
6 cans of Spam – 6 crunches
5 flanel shirts – hand release merkins
4 big mud tires – 4 IC Freddie Mercuries
3 shotgun shells – 3 star jumps
2 huntin’ dawgs – 2 downward dogs
And some parts to a Mustang G.T. – 12 merkins just because parts is parts

Mary: Foot strengthening exercises – Using fence as balance bar, in cadence, (1) slightly bend knees, (2) roll to balls of feet, keeping knees bent (this is where you’ll feel the strengthening), (3) straighten knees, staying on balls of feet, (4) return to starting position. These ballet exercises will strengthen your feet, helping to prevent plantar fasciitis and other foot injuries. Other Mary: low slow flutter.

Announcements: CSAUP Saturday 12/15/18, begins and ends at Womble Park, 6-10 am. Support vehicle driven by Forceps. Bring water, food, change of clothing for rain. Also, Breach says wear RED on Fridays to remember and support troops who are deployed.

Shootin’ starz

Warm Up:17 gathered for brisk 32 n they were ready 4 ‘my friends’ Q.. I had few things on my ‘winkie’, adjusted according to pax
The Workout: We ran @ 457 yards- few cars were coming to bus entrance for SSH, and 5 burpee oyo- enough warning- groups of 3, YHC had counted 15 but we had 2 more oops..  I was excited for hill the yhc had ran few times with yellow card and it was nice n steady 1.2 mile- we stopped at ‘off Disney ‘ property and bottom of the hill and knocked out 50 merkins aka (mucho Cheeto) and planked while waiting on the 6th-

start w/ 2 man Indian run and stopping every 463 meters for low slow/lbc- more merkins- jump squats/star jumps- passed a lonely runner and was asked 2 joined the brothers of gloom, but he could not handle the sauce we were cooking..

indian run failed since our Indian ‘motor boatin’ Got left but we did not know until we reached the beautiful manicured spa n Pool. Feel like Indian run is better accountability tool- pushes you- instead of just running-

jump squats while waited n called 11’s – squat on one side and Turkish get ups- again the parking lot was about 257 meters- saw bunch of accountability amongst the pax- proud of few new ones and believing and trusting F-3.

557 we realized we were missing ‘motorboatin’..  chips takes off since he was winded/ tired in order 2 find him and rest of us start our Indian run back to flag-  yhc follows the tennis star n Brazilian meat lover- while rest get back 2 make sure all pax were accounted for and emeril had called out burpees- thx

naked mole skin-  we push each other and yhc really enjoys how all the guys do not think they can but all of a sudden they do things just a tad bit more during workout-work/ family life.. we learn from our mistakes and share so others do not fail-

12 Days of Christmas; Respect for 41

Warm Up: Banana Seat lead us around the tennis courts to the lower area by the concession stands.  Dauber took over and warmed up the PAX with the following exercises:  20 SSH, 10 Flower/Cotton pickers, 10 Windmills, 10 Imperial Walkers right into 10 Hillbillies; Left arm and Right arm stretches. It was a nice start to this sub 30 degree clear morning.


The Workout:  PAX of 16 (welcome friendly face Natty Ice) broke into two groups, odds began 10 left up/downs followed by 10 right up/downs on the wall while evens held BTTW on the concession stand wall for a 20 count cadence count; swapped positions and completed the previous exercise.  Rinse and Repeat.   PAX walked to the driveway lining up into two lines.  PAX performed Frankensteins, high knees, open doors, and Karaoke (R/L) to the parking lot.  Each PAX grabbed a medium-sized rock and circled up in the parking lot.  In honor of President George H. W. Bush passing last week, PAX performed a total of 41 reps (10, 10, 10, 11) of the following rock exercises:  Rut-Ros, Curls, Tricep Curls, Squats.  PAX moved one space to the right before executing next exercise.  Once completed, PAX got on their six, knocked out 15 rock presses, 15 skull crushers and 15 Homer to Marge passing the rock to the right again before each exercise.  PAX John Cusack back to the rock pile and met up on the tennis courts. Lots of mumble chatter as Q forgot his left and right and pulled a Lipsync with his rep counts).
Mary: 12 Days of Christmas (F3 Style):  Q passed out 12 index cards to 12 unsuspecting brothers.  Each index card had a number (1-12) and a corresponding exercise.  We missed R-22 for special 5th day.  In the spirit of The Twelve Days of Christmas, F3 gave to me….

1st Day: 1 chill cut plank (turned into a pickle pounder – per Double D)

2nd Day: 2 Plank Jacks

3rd Day:  3 Mountain Climbers

4th Day:  4 Wide Merkins

5th Day:  5 Burpees OYO (missed you R-22)

6th Day: 6 Box-cutters

7th Day:  7 LBCs

8th Day: 8 Freddie Mercury 

9th Day:  9 Merkins

10th Day:  10 Squats

11th Day:  11 WW IIs

12th Day:  12 SSH

PAX and Q were spent.  Dauber asked Double D for a 10-count hold.  PAX knew they were in trouble when Double D went off count a few times.  (Must have been that new math)  It messed up the Q as he tried holding plank which looked more like a yoga move with his a$$ high in the air.  Recovered after a lengthy time.

Announcements:  CSAUP (Sat-Womble), U-Turn still on; Q-School in Jan; F3 Christmas Party (Sat); Mutiny on Mon will have a 2.0 as Q (first time in SW history).  Check out Yoga deal (one month = $29 Groupon at Burn? In Holly Sporing) – unlimited yoga.  And for those early birds, Slide Rule will lead a yoga class for EC on Friday before Cletus…5:15 in pavilion.


Prayer:  PAX circled up and held hands.  Dauber took us out.  PAX looking for employment, PAX having challenges at work; Double D’s Dad medical issues – recent fall, Double D’s wife – back surgery; Ausfart recovery in the hospital from his motorcycle accident (long road ahead)

EC:  2 mile run – Banana Seat, Beater and Dauber

Warm Up: Side Straddle Hops, Frankensteins, Right over left, Reverse, Burpees for the late ones

The Workout:  We decided to play it safe and stay on the well lit streets so we could see the ice.  Following Main St down to the carwash near townhall and continuing on to Womble.  Everyone was told to set the distance to OYO.  Some turned at the carwash, others at Hunt, and some folks took a spin around the park before heading back.  The Q (YHC) went back for the “six” from the carwash to make sure everyone knew the turning spots for 3 vs 5 miles.

There was a john stop attempted but there was a paper supply issue…

Mary: Nope
