Double 21’s

/in /by

FNGs: none

PAX: @gamecock, @Abacus, @Warbucks, @Finkle
Warm Up: Started off with Good Mornings and Daisy Pickers, transitioned to Hillbillies and Imperial Walkers, next quad stretches and bending over to touch toes, moved into downward dog to runners pose.
The Workout: Double 21’s.  We did regular 21s but then stacked two exercises so it took a really long time.  Started off with people’s chair with seal claps (20) and airpress (20) then moved over to step ups at the park benches both legs counting as one set.  We moved through this until we got to 11 people’s chair with arm workouts and 11 step ups and switched to 10 sumo squats both sides counting as one set and (11) dips and finished working our way through the set.  I shared with the group that those sumo squats were probably gonna hurt tomorrow and they were giving me that special feeling…
Mary: ABC’s, then sets of 20 in cadence with LBC’s, Reverse LBC’s, and Homer to Marge
Announcements: Q Swap with Carpex next week.
T-Claps (Recognition): EC – @Finkle, @Warbucks, @Gamecock
Prayer: @Finkle – son flying back from Texas

Everything but the Tire

/in /by

YHC took the Q at Prison Yard as part of his self-imposed accountability to get out a bunch this week because…I’m fully healthy again and the body is cooperating, so no excuses! Lots of toys on the Yard today sponsored by YHC, Breach, and Sprinkler and we got to touch just about everything. YHC had a different plan in mind originally, but about 2 mins. before warm-ups, I changed my mind to challenge the “you vs. you” factor. Right now, there’s a lot of items that can be used on the Yard…concrete slabs of different sizes, bricks, pipes, parking signs, steel rebar… they are apparently doing some renovations at Hilltop Needmore. If YHC had known or had enough time to survey, I would’ve told the guys to keep it in the trucks and use what’s here. 12 Strong HIM posted for a mostly quiet battle against the self at Prison Yard today.

FNG’s: No new transfers
Warm Up: SSH x 35 IC, Good Morning’s x15 IC, Sir Fazio’s x 10 IC F/R, Merkins x 22.
The Workout: 14 total stations, 12 of which were set to be 100 rep count stations. The other two were quasi obstacle course style using Farmer’s Carry w/tractor weights, heavy bag carry or Railroad Iron Press x 20, an agility challenge (either ladder or burpee cones) and 1-2’s with the hand weights.

The other 12 stations for 100 reps goal count were: 25 lb. plate Halos, 25 lb. plate Bus Drivers, 45 lb. dumbbell triceps extensions, 15 lb. steel mace warrior squat, 20 lb. kettlebell Midget Cookie Pouch, 25 lb. kettlebell snatches, 40 lb. kettlebell swings, Pain Stick Shoulder Press, Pain Stick Curls for the Girls, Fire Hose Squats, and Blockees.

We did not take accountability counts at the end, but YHC got 7 full-stations, with 75 reps at 2 others. So for next time we do this, remember what you did, and do just a little bit more. I will add that YHC did not do the blockees, which I think was the beast of all the stations most likely.
Mary: Put the toys back into vehicles.
Announcements: Q Swap at Carpex in 2 weeks. Still a spot open at Ragnarok. Carpex Q’s come to us next week…get ready!
T-Claps (Recognition): Thanks Breach and Sprinkler for providing lots of coupons to use today!
Prayer: Those addicted…lots of OD calls to EMS these days right here in our community. Fram and his daughter reading…a praise!!! YHC celebrates 19 years of marriage…it takes work! YHC took us out…great to be back in the circle!

Speed Traps

/in /by

FNGs: none

PAX: @Gamecock, @Beerpressure, @Abacus, @Martini, @Finkle
Warm Up: Mosey around the ballpark track doing butt kickers, high knees and crossovers.  Then did SSH, Good Mornings, Daisy Pickers, Hillbillies, leg stretches
The Workout: Grabbed a rock and hit the road.  At each intersection we stopped to do a prescribed rock exercise until we came to our beloved FQV speed trap sign.  We then went to task to see who was the fastest sprinter.  Each person that sprinted then picked an exercise with their rock to lead the group through.  YHC ended up being the fastest with 18 MPH with several others with a close 17 MPH.  But whose to say it was a competition b/c we’re all winners.  Next we went down to the park and did a bear crawled up a couple hills with exercises at the top and bottom and took a nice mosey back to the Grave to finish out with prayer.
Mary: none, field trip took too long.
Announcements:
T-Claps (Recognition):
Prayer: @Finkle – prayers for my youth pastor and family, sick with covid.  @beerpressure – knee injury, @gamecock – job change
