Thunder Up

QIC: Hello Kitty

YHC is hungry for Qs this week, and the chance for another evening post presented itself down in So. Wake territory, so, to Thunder it is for a 1900 tip-time.

15 gather around a pair of shovel flags, YHC can tell the red carpet has been rolled out, and after a recon mission, we’re off (leaving a cooler at the flags with cold water along the way).

Warm-up:

  • Mosey to the field for: SSH, Sir Fazio, Mountain Climbers and Imperial Walkers
  • Grab a rock and move along over to the lot.
  • Quick feet, curls, quick feet, triceps, quick feet, press, quick feet, rows.
  • Curb mountain climbers (CMC), curls, CMC, tricpes, CMC, quick feet, CMC, press, CMC, rows.

Thang:

  • Head to the playground for that nice plush surface area free of sand spurs.
  • Partner up for Dora 1-2-3 (my second go-around today). Running partner to the flag/cooler and back while teaming up for 100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC.
  • With great work accomplished YHC thinks he’s got to bring a Kitty Classic and little Carpex flair to So. Wake. Bull in the Burpee Ring, HIMs abound and the competitive juices (along with sweat) really flowing.
  • The group of bulls then mosey to the bottom of a hill (located by the field) for 4 rounds of hill bear crawls with 10 star jumps at the top.

Mary:

  • A round of Mary as called by the local pax, ending on Bonnie’s torture by YHC.

COT: 15 strong, and Announcements/Prayers.

NMS:

  • Per Midget’s request, YHC shared a little bit about what Chinese Downhill spoke about at the Carpex convergence this morning.
  • Thanks for letting me come down and host a beatdown with you fine HIMs this evening.

Tclaps,

Kitty

Warm-up

Mosey to the soccer fields for warmup. SSH, FO arm circles, cotton pickers, imperial walkers, hillbillies. Partner up based on overall ability. Split partners into 2 teams to get evenly matched teams.

Main workout

Each team did a count off to get a number assigned to the pax, and had to perform 20 exercises 1 pax at a time. The pax would bear crawl 10 yards, then sprint to the other end of the soccer field, do the exercise associated with their number (or multiple of that number), then sprint back. Then the next pax would go. The remaining pax would do either 10 merkins, 10 ww2, 10 lsf in cadence, or 5 burpees and then do a squat hold until the pax doing the exercise returned. The 20 exercises were plank jacks, American hammer IC, diamond merkins, monkey humpers IC, Homer to Marge IC, burpees, Turkish get ups, LBC IC, left arm plank hold IC, right arm plank hold IC, star jacks, Carolina dry dock, pickle pounder IC, chilly jacks, Freddie Mercury IC, jump squats, wide arm merkins, Peter Parker IC, deep squats, box cutters. Each was a set of 5. When the team finished all 20 exercises, they ran to the other end of the soccer fields at Womble, and then did a 1 loop Indian Run back to the flags.

Mary

We then did an extended Mary with each Pax contributing 2 exercises for a 5 count each.

Announcements

Please make sure to update emergency and contact info so site Qs know who to contact in case emergency. July 4th, contact info on the page, new AO for Yoga starting, Kenny’s Grave resurrecting July 12 at South Park in FV .

Prayers DD, Crablegs, unspoken. Rams took us out.

Ultimate beat down at Thunder

12 Pax gathered at Thunder for what was promised to be an Ultimate (frisbee) beat down. We moseyed over to the turf fields to mark off a field with some cones and do a few warm up exercises:

10x SSH IC

10x Fazio Arm Circles IC, both directions

The pax were conveniently wearing 6 red shirts and 6 non-red shirts, so no skins were needed. Teams were made and we were off.

Rules were simple, any time the disc hit the ground (after kickoff) all Pax had to perform 3 Merkins before they could do anything else. When a team scored the scoring team/Pax called out an exercise for 10 reps, following which the team that was scored on walked to the other side and play resumed with a “kick” off. After a close game (red won 6-5) we wrapped up with some Mary:

Low slow flutter x10 IC

Standard Merkin (on my down and my up) x7 to get us to our 167 target for the day.

Announcements – Day in the park, July 4th convergence.

Prayers – Shredder with praise for support for mission trip.

Shredder took us out – great work (and tons of fun) men!
