I pulled up to setup and there were a lot cars there already.  This means EC happened. I though wasn’t there so the EC list is probably wrong.

CHiPs Word of the Day

Disruption-to interrupt the normal course of something

In the heart of a man inertia will reign–absent a Disruption (F3QSource)

Be a Disruptor like Jesus.  Read Luke 13:10-17 to see how Jesus was a Disruptor after he healed a crippled woman in the temple on the Sabbath.  This did not go over well with the synagogue leader who yelled at the people in the temple, saying “there are six days for work. So come to be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath.”

 

*The PAX were so worn out by the workout, or maybe it was the cold, but we totally forgot name-o-rama.  Sorry I dropped the ball on that one, but what’s funnier is that no one even noticed until we got to DD for coffeeteria.

Jack Bells

Pax of 5 gathered for a promised co-Q beatdown by Pikachu and Skidmark. 3 pax came from Crazy Time and after some mumble chatter we were off at 0530 as scheduled.

Warm Up:

SSH x15 IC

Daisy Pickers x10 IC

Windmill x10 IC

The Workout:

Pax gathered at end of parking lot with their kettle bell. On the grass x2 Turkish Getups on each arm and then we started our latter:

Walk to 1st parking lot line – x10 Kettle Bell swings

Back to grass for x2 Turkish Getups per arm. Repeato swings at 1st line, then go to 2nd line for 5x Man-O-Makers per side.

Getups are performed each time a new line is added, and all preceding lines are always done. Exercises for subsequent lines were:

3rd Line – 10x Deadlifts

4th Line – x10 LBCs w/Kettle Bell held over chest

5th Line – x10 Sit ups w/Kettle Bell held over chest and rotated to be overhead at top of situp (dubbed the Vietnam)

Getups were repeated one more time for good measure, and then YHC handed things over to Skidmark.

Skidmark led us in Jack Webbs – 1:3 Merkin to Overhead Press w/Kettle Bell ratio from 1:3 -> 10:30, with “recovery” runs in between down to parking lot median.
Mary:

After we (thankfully) finished Jack Webbs we circled up. After the Pax (other than Pikachu) failed to guess Skidmark’s favorite “Mary” exercise we were punished with performing it – the Merkin Clock. With stops at 12, 9, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 we were sufficiently gassed.

Everybody Knows Me Marshmello

Meet in the bandshell to listen to some Marshmello.  I guess we also decided to workout.  It was an upside down pyramid where the high reps where the base.  Jump ropes made a comeback.  This kept the heart rate up.

There was some mumble chatter at one point in time, but then a apple fritter was offered to shut the pax up.  Yet at Dunkin no one wanted the apple fritter.  I did though discovery the reward for the South Wake triple.  The apple fritter.  Now I just need some good workouts Wednesday and Thursday to be the rest of the “fritter”.

Also we may be doing Name O Rama Wrong.  Stated from Chips is the book says it should be Hospital Name, F3 Name and age.  We tried fixing it with a second Name O Rama, but there was one pax that refused to change.  I won’t name names, but it was Emeril.

Warm Up:

Quick run around the soccer fields to pick up anyone who was lost and wanted a good workout.

Didn’t Even Have to Poop

Pax of 11 came out for a promised no running beatdown by Pikachu & Lipstick (Pikachu’s Lipstick?) at Crazy Ivan. Brexit even ran a mile before the workout and Crosby switched from Cletus based on the promise of no running.

Warm Up:

Lipstick circled us up for some arm and leg stretches followed by:

SSH x20 IC

Daisy Pickers x10 IC

Then we grabbed our kettle bells for the beginning of legs.

The Workout:

Lung walk (with kettle bell held at chest, focusing on form) halfway down parking lot.

Deep squats x20

Curtsey squats x20

Lung walk rest of the way down the parking lot.

Deep squats x20

Curtsey squats x20

Box cutters x20 IC to give the legs a break

Lung walk back down half way and hand it off to YHC.

We started to mosey our way to the Amphitheater, but Cletus was hogging it so we double back to the first parking lot line for the evolution of the burpee. We started with a new exercise YHC thought up for this Q – the Kurpee. It’s a burpee with the kettle bell – you hold the bell when dropping for the merkin (and do the merkin uneven – one hand on the bell), and when coming up out of the plank drive the kettle bell overhead into a lockout and then bring it back to your waist and then switch hands for the next rep.

We lined up at the parking lot line – 1 Kurpee at the first line, 2 at the 2nd, etc up to 5.

After a 5 count we went back the other way, doing Turkish Getups this time.

By now the ampitheater was cleared out so we moseyed over there, John Cusack & 10x Tricep extensions IC on the way.

Pax lined up along the short wall for some upper back rows – one hand and leg on the wall, the other on the ground.  5 rows per kettle bell with the pax rotating through to each kettle bell once (11 total). We then spun 180 degrees and did the same thing for the other arm.

Mosey back to the parking lot (John Cusack of course) where YHC brought out his speaker for a musical finish with Roxanne – Merkin for every Roxanne, Plank Jack for every Red Light, holding plank otherwise.

Mary:

YHC lead some yoga – Downward Dog, Runners Pose, Pidgeon.

Space Junk In the Sky

The Big question was “What is the bright Star in the sky?”.  Did Cletus see it too?  It may have been hard with all those broke back mountains.  It also looked like Flannagin was at Cletus.  Did he not get the memo that today is Friday not Tuesday.  Back to the Star in the sky we are not 100 percent sure what it exactly it was.  After loading the Sky Walker App after the workout we still don’t know what it was.  I know I shouldn’t be ending sentences with was, but ehh.  I’m going to say it was a UFO.

Music Playing was Dawgpounds HSHM Mix.  This includes a lot of Alternative Music.  Miley Cyrus did sing “Party in the U.S.A”.
