2 years of the Chu – Part 1/2

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

YHC decided to Q consecutive workouts to celebrate 2 years of F3 – the lovely folks at Thunder got to go first.

Peeping Tom joined YHC for a nice 2+ mile EC route – standard Cletus EC + a run by Black Dog Bottle Shop to check the new venue out (looking nice by the way – give it a go).

Warm Up:

Mosey to grass parking lot by rock pile.

SSH x20

Good afternoons x10

Standard Merkin x20

Mountain climbers x20
The Workout:

Tour de Womble:

Mosey down the greenway towards baseball fields, make a left onto the loop and stop at the metal bars.

Half of pax on bars, half on the grass for deep squats.

Reps of 10 and 15 for each group of pax

Mosey to park entrance – burpee broad jump from yellow greenway pole to end of walkway.

Mosey to grass between greenway and baseball fields – gitmo x2 + chilly broad jumps (jump over Pax doing broad jumps)

Mosey to hill between greenway and opening in fence between baseball fields

Did 3 rounds of run to the top of the hill (each time) and various exercises down (crawl bear, bunny hop, and run). Each round we did Merkins (standard, on my up/down, and diamonds on Butt Joint’s call) at the top and squats (standard, on my up/down, and on Peeping Tom’s call) at the bottom.

Mosey to grass near batting cages – stopped for some Mary to show off to the parents.

Mosey to rock pile for some rock work – in a circle, rotating between rocks after every exercise:

Triceps x15

Deadlifts x15

Curls x15

Overhead press x15

Groundpounders x15

Mosey to the grass next to the tennis courts – following the first Mary exercise we promptly moved to the tennis courts as we were all covered in hundreds of nats.

Bloody Hell at Thunder

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , ,

Pax of 4 gathered for a taste of the old management. Crosby promised YHC would bring the suck so he did everything in his power to oblige.

One 45lb weight plate and one fire hose joined in for the fun.

Warm Up:

SSH x20 IC

Good afternoons x10 IC

Daisy Pickers x10 IC

Mountain Climbers x10 IC

The Workout:

Pax were told to keep the 45lb weight plate off the ground for the entire workout – they weren’t told what the penalty would be but they had a good guess.

John Cusack the plate and fire hose to the playground.

2 pax do pull ups, 2 hold plank (one with weight on their back). Switch, rinse and repeat until all pax have done 25 pull ups.

John Cusack the plate and fire hose to the amphitheater.

Lazy Dora with the 45lb plate in tow – pax partnered up and between the two:

100 merkins – plank hold while not doing merkins

200 squats – squat hold while not doing squats

300 LBCs – 6 inch leg hold while not doing LBCs

Que the quotes of the day:

”Bloody hell” – every time someone told Brexit he had another round of an exercise to do.

”It’s never been 6 inches” – Pax not to be named

After the lazy Dora the pax John Cusack’d the plate and hose over to the white fence on the other side of the soccer field.

Partner 1 does Dirkins on the fence – 7 on the bottom rung, 7 on the middle, 7 on the top. Partner 2 holds a plank. Switch and repeat.

John Cusack down to the other end of the white fence for Irkins – 10 on the top rung, 10 on the middle, 10 on the bottom, and 10 on the ground (full blown Merkins).

After these Irkins YHC “accidentally” dropped the 45lb plate (and was quickly called on the “accident”) so the pax got to all enjoy 5 burpees 🙂

John Cusack to the tennis courts for Mary.
Mary:

Yoga – reverse table top twice, lingering for ~5 seconds.

Go into downward dog, rocking heels into ground.

Swing leg through to runners pose, dropping down onto back knee and forearms. Switch and repeat on other side.

Back to downward dog, rocking heels again.

Swing leg through to pigeon pose, again dropping down onto back knee and forearms. Switch and repeat on other side.
