Ultimate at Mutiny

EC: LED, Fonzie, Cupid

FNGs: None

Warm Up: None, YHC totally forgot to do warmup, my bad.

The Workout:

Ultimate Frisbee, Shirts v Skins!

For every drop, we did an exercise. Exercise switched after 2 goals. Burpees, hand release merkins, turkish getups, LBCs, squats, few other things.

Every goal, PAX called an exercise the group did. Scorers only had to do half, if they wanted.

Highlights: Some great catches by lots of PAX (even the ones that were out of bounds!), lots of blocks and sprints

High Lights: The glare from the lights, the glare from the Skins

Low Lights: the not-so-glow-in-the-dark frisbee, LED being so tanned we kept thinking he was a Shirt

Mary: None

Sprints: Yogurt, Noah’s Ark, Banana Seat, Sugar, Black Knight, Cupid

Announcements: Try some new AOs out, spread the PAX around!

YHC will be leading ladder sprints post-workout at Fuquay AOs for interested PAX (thinking Mutiny and Kenny’s Grave/Sheepdog). Great way to improve your speed and endurance. Only takes a few minutes, it’s worth it.

T-Claps (Recognition): Happy birthday Yogurt!

Prayer: Dauber’s hamstring, Shredder, Crab Legs. Banana Seat’s kid with pneumonia. H1N1’s travel for work

Another Freeze Warning

April 1, 2019 / in Mutiny / QIC: Stovepipe and Fedex

PAX: Gump, Dauber, Norm, 16-Bit, Cupid, Doc, Stovepipe, Messi, H1N1, FedEx, Beater, Fonzie

With the temperature dropping back into the 30’s it was good to see 12 men decided to not fart sack and come out to get a workout in.  Stovepipe and I decided to co-Q. As always it’s an honor to lead.

 

Warm Up: Stovepipe started us out with a lap around the track and then circled up in the parking lot for some SSH IC x 30, daisy pickers IC x 10, good morning IC x 10, and some stretches. Stovepipe then hand over the Q to me and I had the pax do 5 burpees OYO and shoulder taps IC x 10.

The Workout: We headed over to the shelter for some dips, urkins, and derkins IC x 10 for 2 rounds. We then headed over to the middle of the parking lot behind Club Works where I told the Pax to partner up.  I then told the pax that we would start with partner people’s chair for a 10 count, then P1 would run to one end of the parking lot and does 10 LBC while P2 runs to the other end of the parking lot and does 10 squats. We completed 10 rounds, called an audible after first round because I forgot to include t claps during partner people’s chair, and each pax ended up doing 100 of each exercise.  Asked Messi to lead the pax in an exercise while we waited on the six, he chose to do more LBC, I then had the pax do 5 burpees OYO for standing around.

Mary: Headed over to the tennis courts for Mary. Started with BTTW, per Doc’s earlier request, and called on Dauber, Doc, and Beater for a 10 count each. Stovepipe finished Mary with big boy sit ups, low slow flutters, box cutters, American hammers, stretches, plank variations, and pickle pounders.

Face Catching Frisbee

It was time to take out the frisbee for some Ultimate Frisbee. We had 15 PAX split into two teams, with a non-glow-in-the-dark frisbee and blinding parking lot lights for some face catching Ultimate.

Welcome FNG Nacho!

Warm Up: SSH, Good Mornings, and Quad stretches. That’s all you need when you play Ultimate
The Workout: Every time the frisbee hits the ground, we rotated with 5 each of Monkey Humpers, Star Jumps, Merkins, LBCs. The team that scored got to pick the 10x penalty for the other team while they enjoy 5 ranging from Diamond Merkins to Homer-to-Marge. There were some amazing plays with cheating shoves and tricks. But always a great time.
Mary: 4 minutes of Mary called out by various PAX

Warm Up: After a lap around the track we circled up for SSH IC x 25, Fazio Arm Circles IC 10 Fwd and 10 Rev,  Daisy Pickers IC x 10, Stretches, and Shoulder Tap Merkins IC x 20

The Workout:

Pax ran over to the parking lot where we bear crawl 5 lines, do a burpee, sprint back to the start, bear crawl 5 lines, do 2 burpees, sprint back to the start, etc… Told the Pax to keep adding a burpee till we reach 10 burpees. We started off great but had to call an audible when we all reached 8 burpees.

After a Messi 10 count, like only he knows how, we headed to the rock pile. After picking appropriate rocks we circled up for circuits of: curls for the girls IC x 10, tricep extensions IC x 10, overhead press IC x 10, rut rows IC x 10, LBC with rock IC x 10, American Hammers w/o rock IC x 10 and some other excercises I can’t remember.

After a couple of circuits, including one on our knees, we put it all together with a flow of squat, curl for the girls, overhead press, tricep extension IC x 10. Rinse and repeat. We put the rocks back and lined up for an Indian Run to the tennis court for Mary.

– SSH x 25

The Workout: Told the Pax that we will start with high knees and that every time your QIC says “down” we do a burpee. We start off slow but I don’t think the PAX was very happy when I said “down” three times in a row! Twice! After we caught our breath we did 10 shoulder tap Merkins in cadence.  We mosey to the parking lot to bear crawl 3 parking spots then crawl bear back and do a squat twist to the R/L. Told Pax that we will do this 10 times OYO but had to call an audible half way through because of all the chatter.  After catching our breath again I told the Pax that we would be doing a lunge, squat then burpee all the way down the parking lot. We mosey to the playground for 2 sets of pull-ups x 10, swing crunches x 10 ( like TRX but your feet are on the swing), and star jumps x 10. We finished with dips, urkins, derkins and sprints and then an Indian Run to the tennis courts for Mary.
