Wheelbarrow 11’s…WTH?!?

7 PAX and 1 HC no show for Prison Yard. Today’s goal was 3 sets of 11’s. Little did I know we would only get started on the 2nd round before time expired. YHC planted the flag and off we go at 0530.

Mosey to opposite side of clubhouse

– Roughly 40 yds from end to end with a cone in the middle
(Modify to lunge walk after 5 rds each due to difficulty)

11’s with crab walk
Reverse LBC IC & Turkish getups with 3x IC crab cakes was the plan. We ended up doing half the distance with getups on one end and crab cakes on the other. Only made it 2 or 3 passes before time was up.

We finished up with a mosey around the clubhouse and back to the flag just past 45 mins.

Strong work to those who posted for this one. Cancun had to hit the showers early to practice soap dropping. Hopefully we will finish this one up the next time YHC has the Q at the Yard.

BS Out!

Giving 110% for Kenny

FNGs: none

Warm Up: SSH, hillbillies, imperial walkers, Daisy pickers, sir fazio arm circles, seal claps, overhead claps, Willie Mays Hayes

The Workout: Thing 1: Four Corners
different exercises at each corner
– merkins
– squats
– mountain climbers
– WWIIs
Idea was to do 10 count first round, then 20, then 30 and then step it back down. Finkle suggested we do two rounds of 20 so we could get an even 100, and YHC was happy to oblige. Then Banana Seat said that we give 110%, so YHC had the idea to take on one more round of 10 counts for a solid 110!

Thing 2: People’s Chair, 10 count down the line / dips 20 count. Repeated for a total of 2 rounds.

Mary: popcorn Mary

Prayer: Finkle’s brother-in-law, Rico looking for housing

Passing the Baton

Probably close to two years ago Fonzie and I took over as site Q’s at Possum Trot.  As one of our favorite AOs it was fun to keep it running, Qing as much as we could, and making sure things went smoothly.  Over time, and with injury, we lapsed in our duty.  It became evident that new leadership was needed so we reached out to local PAX to find potential candidates.  After a lot of searching two stepped forward, almost at the same time.  Both Stovepipe and Rubiks wanted to help lead South Wake’s original AO and felt up to the task.  YHC picked up the Q for the day and asked the two of them to be there for the official hand off.  All in all, 11 other men joined the three of us for a beatdown and the official handoff of the site.  

FNGs: None

Warm Up:

SSH x27 IC (that was the temperature when I looked when I woke up)

Windmills x10 IC

Daisy Pickers x10 IC

Imperial Walkers x10 IC

Hillbillies x10 IC

Sir Fazio Arm circles x10 IC forward and reverse

The Workout:

We started at the back corner, by the rock pile, to begin a four corners workout.  Each corner would be some sort of leg or ab workout with the exception of the first because I finally feel like I can lift a (small) rock.  

Curls for the girls x10 IC

Tris for the guys x10 IC

Rut Rows x10 IC

Chest press x10 IC

We then did a backwards mosey to the next corner, by where the parking lot met the road.  

No Surrender x10 IC

Bobby Hurley x10 IC

Star Jumps x10 IC

We then proceeded to the next corner, on the other side of the tennis courts.  We made our way there via Walk like an Egyptian.  This is a lunge walk Indian Run where everyone steps in to a lunge while the guy at the back lunge walks to the front of the line.  Once they get there everyone steps in to a lunge with the other leg while the next guy goes.  This got a little unruly at times and, honestly, took way longer than I thought but all the complaining really fed my soul.  

The next corner was abs.  We did an LBC cycle

LBC x10 IC

Reverse LBC x10 IC

Side LBC x10 IC each side.  

We did a rinse and repeat and then did a slow mosey to the next corner for some squat rounds

Squats x10 IC

Wide squat x10 IC

Feet together squat x10 IC

Two rounds of that as well and then it was a duck walk back to the rocks to do another round of what we had done before. After that we returned our rocks and went to the tennis courts.  We started with a set of calf raises.  After that, there was a lot of mumble chatter which made YCH feel like he hadn’t worked everyone hard enough so we went in to a round of suicides across the width of of the court.
