Getting Dirty at The Nut

/in /by

It’s always great to come back to The Nut where YHC once had the honor of being site Q. It was good to see some of the usual suspects including a few new(ish) guys YHC hadn’t met.

Dahmer was the first on the scene and ready to roll for some EC so the two of us headed out and quickly ran into the 12 Oaks crew doing EC. Great work!

Warm Up:

Mosey around the parking lot
SSH x 20 IC
Frankensteins x 10 IC
Good Mornings x 10 IC
Daisy Pickers x 10 IC
Sir Fazio Arm Circles x 10 fwd/ x 10 rev IC
Imperial Walkers x 10 IC
Hillbillies x 10 IC

The Workout:

The Main Event was a “Dirty McDeuce” which consisted of 4 stations with 3 exercises at each: 1 arm exercise, 1 leg exercise, and 1 ab exercise for a total of 12 exercises. Pax counted off into groups of 4 and since there were 12 of us, it worked out perfectly to have 3 HIM per group. Each group went to the station corresponding to their number to begin the workout. Traveling between stations was done by jogging a full lap around the parking lot. Round 1 was 10 reps for each exercise, round 2 was 15 reps, and since time was running short, we went back to 10 reps for round 3. All groups completed all three rounds and then we went straight into…

Mary:

American Hammers x 20 IC
Homer to Marge x 20 IC

YHC went 1 minute over time so next time we will have to end a minute early to compensate.

Announcements:

JOCO CSAUP Sat., May 22nd
Memorial Day Murph
Bed Build in June
5k for HS Police Officer the same day

T-Claps (Recognition):

Great to run with Dahmer during EC and T-Claps to Flanigan, Moby, and the other 12 Oaks crew members for EC as well.

Prayer:

Pax that are injured
Those that are traveling
Family members who are sick

2nd F was at Panera and although no one else came from The Nut, YHC caught up with those returning from The Nest.

Great work out there, HIM. It’s always an honor to lead.

Run in opposite directions around the island. When you met your partner do 7s counting down of Broke Back Shoulder Tap Merkins. Every time you meet you decreased the number. We went down to 1. Once that was wrapped up we did laps around the island. Partner A did bear crawls and Partner B did Lunge walks. When Partner A needed a break Partner B took over the bear crawls and Partner A did lunges. After one lap we switched to Gorilla Walks and Lunges.

Mosey to the wall for mobile balls to the wall. The pax waiting held their Squat Hold. As pax held balls to the wall and moved down the length of the wall.

Moseyed to the playground and split up in three groups. One group went with Emeril to the hill. One group with Flanigan to the play ground and the last group with me to the wall. The hill group was the timer. 5 trips up the hill running backwards. The folks against the wall held squat while lifting up one leg and switching. The playground group did pull ups. Once the 5 trips where completed group one went to the wall. Group 2 to the hill and group 3 to the playground. Repeat until all groups ran the hill.

Then we made our way up the stairs. We then found our original partners and wheelbarrow to the flag pole/stop sign.

Building B.O.M.B.S on the Abyss

/in /by

A balmy morning at the Happiest AO on Earth. YHC wasn’t sure to expect with only 1 HC (U.T.I) and 1 other EC’er (Emeril). So to my surprise after getting back from EC…the whole Fritter Foundation and a huge clown car of 12 Oaksers pulled in! 17 Men gathered at Disney to take a ride to the dark corner known as “the Abyss”. I love this place!

Warm Up: SSH x40, Good Morning x a lot, 10 Burpees OYO, Windmills x 10, Sir Fazio’s x 12 (F/R)

We then moseyed over to the high school where a couple of divergent hills lay before us. At the meeting point of said hills, we did Shoulder Taps IC x10, and Hand Release-Release Merkins x 10 IC. We then used the same partner groups to run to the top of each hill, return, and meet in the middle where we did Shoulder Taps x10 IC as a team for round 1, then did the Hand Release-Release Merkins x 10.

3 Indian run lines back to the flag for Mary. Lot’s of picking up the 6…great work men!

DB and M4L 2020-21 Reunion tour kickoff

/in , /by

I love Disney.  It’s always been one of my favorite AOs.  I remember the beta opening and Co-Site Qing it with Kid Cracker.  So much to do, well lit, away from homes and no cars.   🙂  So that’s why this morning, M4L and I decided to leave those grounds and head for a dimly lit, residential street with more cars that I counted on!

We wanted to bring back an old favorite – the Jamison Park hill.  Jamison Park was the original 12 Oaks (look it up) and it was great to see 7+ pax from the 12 Oaks hood make the journey to the east side for our Beat Down.

I planted the Shovel Flag on this 35 degree, cold, damp, foggy morning as 25 #HIM showed up in various clown cars.

FNGs: None

Warm Up: At 5:30 on the dot – we were off.

  • Mosey out of the soccer field parking lot and head to Middle Creek High School.
  • Stop at first intersection – Merkins x 20
  • Hand Release Merkins x 20
  • Mosey to end of road near Jamison Park entrance
  • I forgot what we did
  • Quick disclaimer to use your inside voices and we entered Jamison Park

The Workout:

Thang 1:  Pakistani Dora

  • Gather at the bottom of that big ass hill (At Jamison Park Drive and Wesley Ridge)
  • Partner up for Pakistani Dora – one partner runs hill – other partner does reps with cumulative counts
    • Turkish Get up x 100 (audible to 75)
    • LBC x 200
    • Squats x 300
  • It sucked but great effort
  • Even great effort by the White Accord that was paralyzed for several minutes by the sheer amount of man candy beside her car

 

Thang 2:  The 7-11

to celebrate M4L’s first job in America – we moseyed to the half pipe for a round of 7-11s

  • In the half pipe – do a set of 7s with Squats one one side – Star Jumps on the other side (6-1, 5-2, 4-3, 3-4, 2-5, 1-6)
  • When you cross in the middle at the bottom – do 11 merkins (every time)

Jail break to flag

2020 South Wake Frosty CSAUP 12/5

/in /by

On a crisp December morning. Well not so crisp but it was December 20 HIM congregated at Possum Trot for the 2020 South Wake CSAUP..Ruck Style. That’s right all of us were carrying rucksacks with the appropriate weight inside. Trust me I checked. Cadre Breach was joined by Cadre Blue Hen and Cadre M4L. We kicked off the first workout at the Trot with Fonzie at the helm.

@Farva, @Dawgpound, @POTS, @Blue Hen, @M4L, @Finkle, @Bondo, @Alpine, @Flannigan,

@Fanny Pack, @Dauber, @Bingo, @Pikachu, @Latiner, @16-Bit, @Sprinkler, @LED, @Fonzie, @H1N1 and

@Breach on the Q

Possum Trot Q #1 BB (Fonzie)

25 days of Christmas

Chestnuts Roasting (Chest press with the ruck)

Hanukkah Billes ( Hillbillies)

Reindeer Rows (Rut Rohs)

Imperial Nutcrackers

Santa Squats

Taint Tinsel (Swings with the Ruck)

Merry Merkins

Abominable Snowman (LBC’s with the Ruck)

S-Hat Burpees (10)

 

After the Trot workout, we hit the pavement for our trek to Mutiny. There were 5 coupons in play 2 Firehoses, 2 Pain Sticks, and a sandbag. The load had to be shared by all so everyone took turns embracing the suck. Sprinkler decided to take a dive in the ditch and almost took himself out before we got to his Q. The pax only racked up 2 violations along the way.

Mutiny Q (Sprinkler)

Arrived to have 2 penalties. With pack 20 merkins, took the pack off for overhead press for the second penalty. Off to the parking lot. Lined up to do Irkins, Derkins and dips on the curb with crab walk and lunge walks from one side to the other for a total of 4 rounds.

Moseyed to Rockpile and claimed a partner. Partner 1 curls, bus driver, rut rows while partner 2 ran to 2nd light poles. Rinsed and repeated. Ended with 5 burpees OYO.

The Pax was given 5 mins to rehydrate, refuel and repack before getting back to the action. The pax were allowed to leave 1 coupon behind and they voted to get rid of a pain stick so we left that behind in the support vehicle. We pressed on to the next AO..The Nest. Upon arrival at the nest we grounded the coupons and the packs for the Nest Q via Finkle, there were no violations on this part of the trip.

Nest Q (Finkle)

Pax was taken down to the walls and the fence line for some Balls to the wall and people’s chair sets. On the first set we counted to 25 for Balls and seal claps to 25 till we got all the way around and then set 2 we did shoulder tap Ball and overhead claps. This continues till we got down to decreasing by a 5 count each round.

Second activity was bears and dans.  Bear crawl two parking spaces than did Lt Dan Taylors building each time up to 10 squats and 40 lunges.

 

Pax was given another 5 minutes to rehydrate and refuel, we lost H1N1, Fonzie and LED after this AO. The decision was made to leave the sandbag and a pain-stick behind for good behavior. Onward to Casino Royale. Along the way Cadre Blue Hen decided to have the pax do some Indian Runs. The back 2 guys run to the front and tuck in behind the flag bearers. During the journey he had them try to beat his timer, Flannigan with wings of glory ran ahead of the colors which resulted in a violation for the pax.  Which was assessed by him when we arrived at Casino Royale. 22 Diamond Merkins with the packs on.

Casino Royale (Fanny Pack)

BOMBS at the Casino. With a lot of the wall working and bear crawling already taken, YHC had to go to a hybrid plan C. @Dauber knowingly chose a number of reps to start with (15) and @Farva unknowingly chose B1 -Burpees rather than B2- bench presses with the ruck. 2 groups Indian run with no rucks in opposite directions. When groups meet, we did BOMBS. 15 burpees OYO, 25 Overhead Press with a ruck, 35 merkins, 25 big boy sit-ups, and about 3 minutes of squats.  Both groups got around the large track twice. YHC did call an audible and chose mercy over punishment and ended the squats about 20 seconds early. Honored to be a Holly Springs Pax and allowed to lead today with my brothers in the Quay!

Pax was given the last 5 min break of the day for hydration and fuel before stepping off for the final leg back to Possum Trot. Once we got to the railroad tracks Blue Hen decided to take the pax down the iron highway. The trek was slow going as the town of Fuquay did not place railroad ties very symmetrical to each other. We got a bit spread out due to the uneven terrain, but we got back in line for the final push up the hill and back down to the trot. We dumped our packs and coupons for the final time and headed to tennis courts to get smoked one more time by 16-Bit.

Possum Trot #2 (16 Bit)

PAX lined up on one sideline of the first tennis court to perform what I’ve named a Crab Boil. PAX crab-walked to the corresponding sideline of the next court where we performed 15 crab cakes in cadence. Resumed crab walk to the next court and did 15 crab bumpers (inverted pickle pounders). We were supposed to crab walk to the same sideline on the next court but a silver sneakers tennis tournament was starting to show up and that last court was getting occupied so our last crab walk was only to the sideline on the other side of the court we were on. When we got there we did 15 crab jacks in cadence.

The aforementioned tennis tournament stopped us from being able to rinse and repeat so we audibled to batwings which consisted of 10 of the following, forward arm circles, reverse arm circles, seal claps, and overhead claps.

We headed down the hill towards the baseball fields and circled up for Mary. We started with 20 American hammers in cadence and then went to Dr. W’s. These are one of my favorites but always cause a lot of confusion. It’s an 8 count exercise that we lost count during so I stopped after 7 or 8 of them. We finished up with an LBC circuit of regular, reverse, and side LBCs.

 

We ended in a very large COT with some great messages passed about our involvement in the community and our impact on others. We closed in prayer and got back to the front of the park for some very much needed coffee and biscuits courtesy of Forceps.

 

 

Bday Q #2

/in , /by

It was a little cooler this morning than yesterday but at least it was dry. Good to be back at The Nut with some familiar faces and a great showing with 13 total PAX in attendance. Thanks to all for coming out this morning and allowing YHC the honor to lead.

FNGs: None

Warm Up:

After the F3 mission statement quiz/refresher we did a quick mosey around the parking lot and circled up for
– Good Mornings x 10 IC
– Daisy Pickers x 10 IC
– Windmills x 10 IC
– Imperial Walkers x 10 IC
– Hillbillies x 10 IC
– SSH x 20 IC

The Workout:

We moseyed to the side parking lot where it became apparent that another group (Gladiators?) had infringed on our territory so we continued the mosey around the back to avoid potential conflict with the offending party. We settled on the circular loop for a modified version of 4 corners. PAX numbered off and split into 4 groups 0f 3 (and one group of 4 to account for the odd number).

Each round consisted of 4 exercises – one at each cone. Traveling between cones took place via alternating between crab walk, bear crawl, crawl bear, and lunge walk. At the completion of each round, we moseyed to the gate and back (roughly 200m round trip).

Round 1 – 20 counts of each exercise: Merkins, WW2’s, Carolina Dry Docks, LBC’s
Round 2 – 15 counts each: Squats, Dips, Squat Jumps, Low Slow Flutter
Round 3 – 10 counts each: Merkins, WW2’s, Carolina Dry Docks, LBC’s
Round 4 – 5 counts each: Squats, Dips, Squat Jumps, Low Slow Flutter

We collected the cones and moseyed back to the front of the school. After partnering up, partner A ran a lap around the parking lot while partner B did an exercise until partner a returned then partner A did the exercise while partner B ran. Round 1: Irkins, Round 2: Dips, Round 3: Step ups

With 5 minutes remaining, it was then time for…

Mary:

American Hammers x 20 IC
LBC’s x 20 IC
Homer to Marge x 10 IC w/ each leg up
