/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , ,

FNGs: Yes! Welcome Sharknado

Warm Up: side straddle hops, arm circles forward and reverse, seal claps, overhead claps, arm stretches, good mornings.

The Workout: Mosey to the rock pile and grab a large rock. Circle up in the main parking lot to begin the 1st event.
My 4yr Q centers around time so we started with some clockwork using 4 different exercises. Started with 1 rep of each: curl for the girl, overhead press, ruh roh, and squat. Set down the rock, rotate, and do 2 of each. This continued through the 12 rounds of the clock for a total of 78 reps of each exercise.

Next up the calendar beatdown as follows, all with your original rock:

  • June 30 rock presses
  • July 31 homer to marge in cadence
  • August 31 rock merkins right arm
  • September 30 American hammers in cadence
  • October 31 rock merkins left arm
  • November 30 flutter kicks in cadence
  • December 31 rock spanks in cadence
  • January 31 ground pounders (stopped at 7 to do burpees for my birthday then picked back up at 8)
  • February 28 Rockys in cadence
  • March 31 ascending testicles  10,10,11
  • April 30 wall sit
  • May 31 pickle pounders in cadence

Mary: LBCs, Boat Canoes, and the introduction of Krispy Kreme’s (12 count move that targets your abs), then 20 Merkins as it was only called a decent Q. After the merkins it was deemed reasonable.

Announcements: Picnic, 2.0 workout at 9, Bed project next weekend

Prayer: We all took a knee and I took us out. Very thankful for what F3 has done in my life and in the lives of others, I’m definitely a better man for it.

Are you a Member of the Clergy?

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Sometimes when an FNG shows up, you gotta ask, “are you a priest or pastor, or member of the clergy?” Because we’re about to talk about rock spanks with consent and without consent and pickle pounders, etc. Today’s FNG Abacus, was not a member of the clergy so we had the “all clear” to commence with the best mumblechatter in Southwake. YHC sought to set the stage for ridiculousness by introducing the Bag of Wrenches (about a 30lb. bag of wrenches, literally) that would accompany us on our short journey today.

FNG’s: Welcome aboard Abacus!!!
Warm Up: Shredder got us started off with SSH x 15 IC as YHC got some extra gloves for our FNG. This was followed by Good Mornings x 20 IC, Imperial Walkers into Hillbillies x 15 IC, Hand Release Merkins x 20, Seal Claps x 10 IC, Overhead Claps x 10 IC, Donkey Kicks x 20 IC, Hand Release Merkins x 10, Good Mornings x 10 IC.
The Workout: Mosey over for some rock work as Shredder and Pumpkin Spice shared the load of Bag of Wrenches.

Circle of Rock

2 Rounds of each: Squats x15, Rut-Rows x15, Hand Release/Release Merkins x 10 IC, Curls for the Girls x15, Tricep Extension x15, Rock Spanks x15 IC, Chest Press x25, Shoulder Press x15.

The circle of rock continued except 4 PAX stepped up to do 25 Curls for the Girls with the Bag of Wrenches, while the rest of the circle did AMRAP Ground Pounders the entire time. PAX not Curling or Pounding were Planking.

Wall of Pain

Each PAX took a turn doing 25 Curls for the Girls with the Bag of Wrenches while the rest of the PAX alternated between BTTW and People’s Chair. With 13 fellas…this took awhile!

Mosey to the playground with Shredder and 3rd Cousin grabbing the bag to travel. When we got there, 4 different PAX stepped up to be our “wrench curlers” while all others did AMRAP step-ups. PAX not curling or stepping, were planking.

Mary: LBC’s x20 IC, Homer to Marge X 20 IC, WW1’s x 20, Pickle Pounders x20 IC, short mosey back to the flag for Donkey Kicks x 10 IC. I told these guys not to leave open spots on the Q Sheet!

T-Claps (Recognition): Pumpkin Spice and Forceps for the double down and Pumpkin Spice will be on the VQ at Ground Pounder next week. That dude is gonna uncork it on us! Welcome Abacus (works in finance…close to Bean Counter…but).
Prayer: Motor Boatin’ and his new job, Pumpkin Spice has a friend who has recovered from a possible brain tumor, fellow PAX in Carpex with various injuries, those struggling with addiction, depression, mental illness, and grief. When we pray…God moves! YHC took us out.
