Disney is my favorite place to Q, just so many options. YHC looked to bring back a few throwback moves from the likes of Pablo and Shamwow! as we closed out the June Challenge!

FNG’s: no
Warm Up: Good Mornings and then some mosey around back to the football field with stops along the way for some Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Frankenstein, and Sir Fazio’s.
The Workout: Stopped at the back wall of the school for some Shoulder Taps, Monkey Humpers, BTTW, and some People’s Chair with some humorous counts by Breach and Bobby Boucher. We moseyed over to the pit circle and split into two groups. 1 group would do 3 Burpees, head up the stairs, do 3 more Burpees, head down the stairs, then do 3 more Burpees. This was done while the other group did 5 squats/5 star jumps AMRAP. We then repeated this routine and the group not on the stairs did 5 Diamond Merkins/5 dips AMRAP.

We moseyed over to the large circle in front of the school for a variation on clock merkins. The circle was the clock and the merkins became Foxhole Merkins. Lots of grit picked up by these sweaty dudes and a few complaints on this routine. We made stops at 12, 7, 3, 11, and 6.

2 Indian run lines for some 4 corners in the large High School lot. Stops included: 5 burpees, 10 squats, 15 merkins, 15 dying cockroach, 10 burpees. Next we made our way with Indian Runs to the Abyss for 20 LBC’s at the top and 20 Star Jumps at the bottom. We made our way up the Abyss doing a partner wheelbarrow climb (partners alternated crawling per each flight of stairs and no dental accidents occurred). Once again for 20 LBC’s and 20 Star Jumps up and down the stairs with a fellowship run back to the flag.
Mary: Homer to Marge x20 IC
Announcements: Congratulations to team Naked Baby winning the June Challenge and particularly Breach and Cupid for schooling everyone on points.
T-Claps (Recognition): Bobby Boucher was officially handed the keys to 1st F in Southwake by YHC. He will do an amazing job of leading!. Stubs thanked PAX who’ve supported these last several weeks.
Prayer: Thanks for Stubs, Alpine, prayers for UTI and Pet Sounds in Carpex.

Disney 6/16

/in /by

4 Pax took on the terrain that is Disney  (LED, Best in Show, Abacus and Breach on the Q) 

Warm Up: Mosey around the soccer field and then circle up for 22 count exercises of Imperial Walkers, Good Mornings, and SSH.

The Workout: Mosey over to the abyss for some crawl bear to the bottom and then bear crawl back up, performing 11 merkins and the bottom and 11 Pickle pounders at the top, rinse and repeat for another round to equal (22) of each exercise. Mosey back to the soccer fields for some Crab Walk Soccer. The team that gets scored on had to do 10 Homers to marges, then with one leg up then the other, so it pays to be a winner. Turns out that a kickball is not the best choice for this type of event, but we made it work. We needed to take a lap around the field in the middle to give our shoulders a break.

We wrapped with 22 merkins with a ball pass around the square.

Mary: Circled up for 22 counts of Heel taps, dying cockroaches, and hello dollys

Announcements: F3 picnic on July 30th at Harris Lake
