Rnd 2 of Evening the Odds (Tigers Blood 8/4/21)

Even the Odds

FNGs: No F3 FNG’s but we had several new PAX try the challenge for the first time. (Pikachu, Bobby Bouche, Lipstick, Pots, Sprinkler, Full House, Fonzie, 187 and 8 Bit.
Warm Up: 400 m mosey lap, Several sets of various quad/hamstring/calf/glute stretches.
The Workout:  Explanation of how the workout works. Odd numbers have to be followed in exact sequence and even numbers are interchangeable.  I/C exercises, progress around the track or straight reps must be done without progressing forward. Ex. Walking along track is against the self imposed rules, you must perform the exercise to progress.  On the odd numbers you pick up the six (guys on even numbers) by help with reps or progress around the track. From the first time we did this the time was only 45 min.  This time we had a 70 min timer, no breaks built in.  I also added 2 more rounds for a total of 16. See “Even the Odds” link. Round count by PAX:  POTS > 4 , Maybeline > 9 , Pikachu > 9 , Cupid > 9 , Fonzie > 7, Full House > 10, Fanny Pack > 12 , 187 > 12, Mad Dog 20/20 > 9, Bobby Bouche > 8, Roger Roger > 7, 8 Bit > 6, Breach > 9, Lipstick > 9, Sprinkler > 7, FRAM > 9

T-Claps (Recognition):

Pax for getting after it in this humidity

Lippy snug in his covers…

YHC rolled down HS Road to find a speedy 187 rolling through the humidity like it weren’t a thing at all. I had a feeling he was headed to TB… Then he ran past me when I parked. Maybe I was gonna do this thing solo? Nope, he found a new parking space and we contemplated the chances of Lipstick showing up on his HC…. 0515. No Lippy. Let’s roll.

FNGs: basically me
Warm Up: A few SSH, Frankenstein’s, Imperial’s and general stretching.
The Workout:  The “Burph”- This bad idea came from the nation’s slack and reposted by 16-Bit with the opportunity to bring it to Tiger Blood. I thought, why not have this be a return to the gloom opportunity to Q. Ugh.

25 Burpees, 50 Merkins, 75 Squats – 2 laps on the track. Rinse and Repeat 4x… totals of 100 Burpess, 200 Merkins, 300 Squats and 2 miles.

Mary: Not this time…
Announcements: None
T-Claps (Recognition): EC for 187, and thank you for the accountability today brother
Prayer: YHC took us out.

9×9=81 (Not today)

YHC pre-blasted and threw out 9×9=81 and several Pax have asked what that meant for Tiger Blood. In my mind it means 9 miles at 9 minute pace = 81 minutes with a 9 minute Yoga/stretch session. We did not achieve this today but it was not for lack of effort. Lots of guys accelerating. T-claps to a bunch of Pax this morning.

FNGs: Probably not the best day to FNG
Warm Up: Hell Naw!
The Workout: Indian run stack up and down BOMBS. When Q got to the front do the exercises. 5 burpees, 10 overhead claps, 15 merkins, 20 Big Boy situps, 25 Squats. Finished exactly at Womble.
There are 11 light posts from the lower parking lot to Grigsby/Stinson. 2 man weave suicides with ascending Big Boy situps at each light post and 8 hand release merkin with a one arm reach at the lower lot. indian/fellowship run back to start.

Mary: Some yoga of varying difficulty for each pax
