/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , ,

Warm Up:  8 PAX, including one 2.0, made there way to Fuquay for some tapering.  Jog around tennis court and proceeded to the snack shack.  Got the arms and legs warmed up with some Michael Phelps, Imperial Walkers, Hill-Billie’s, Cotton-Pickers, Windmills, Fazio-Arm front/back, good AMs and SSH.  Multiples of 7s were executed.

 

The Workout:  Dauber used the short wall for leg-ups, (7R, 7L) 7 derkins, 7 erkins, 7 wide merkins, 7 burpees, REPEAT; fit in some Balls to the walls (21 count) and wall LBCs thrown in for good measure.  Handed off the workout to LED who lead us to the tennis courts for “Four Corners”. PAX began with 10 burpees and then side stepped the long way to the end of the court switching up at the halfway point.  Added 20 mountain climbers to the 10 burpees.   Bear crawled to the next corner.  After 10 burpees, 20 mountain climbers, LED added 30 sec count Balls to the Walls.   Side-stepped/shuffle to the fourth corner and knocked out 10 burpees, 20 MC, 30 sec B2W, and 20 SSH in cadence (40 total).  Mozied to center court for Mary.

For Those About To Rock – Possum Trot

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , , , ,

Twelve PAX, including one 2.0, decided to heed the call of “rocks” today at Possum Trot.

Dauber finally got a chance to help lead this site after two weeks of work meetings on the road. No FNGs.

Warm Up:  Jog around tennis courts to the lower section.

A handful of Michael Phelps while PAX circled up; 20 Side Straddle Hops; 10 Hill Billie’s immediately followed by 10 Imperial Walkers; 10 Windmills; 10 Cotton-Pickers; 10 Good-mornings

The Workout:  Partnered up and moseyed to the small hill on the left and begin “11’s” with Merkins on the bottom of the hill and LBCs on the top.   Moved back to the warmup area – one partner performed step-ups while the other partner bear-crawled around the pavilion; swapped and repeated.  PAX moved to the driveway lining up in two lines.  Along the march up the hill, PAX performed Gate-Opens (bringing back CC memories from Double-D), 5 Burpees, Frankensteins, deep lunges, karaoke (left and right sides) until we reached the parking lot.  R-22 was kind enough to point out the porta potty but no PAX needed to adjust gross weight.   Each PAX grabbed a rock and lined up in one row back at the start of the parking lot.  Rock exercises were executed flawlessly by all PAX across the parking lot.  PAX moved four steps after each rock exercise was performed.  The following Rock exercises were performed (10X) curls, overhead press, chest press, rut-ro’s, alternating hand on rock merkins, (REPEAT), triceps curls, goblet squats -(making sure toes/soes/whatever Dauber was trying to say were pointed outward); Homer-to-Marge; more arm curls until PAX made it to the opposite end of the parking lot.  PAX dropped their rock and began to bear crawl up the larger hill holding plank by the guardrail until the 6th made it to the top.  Awesome effort by all PAX, including Messi!   PAX grabbed the guardrail and cranked out 5 derkins, 5 dips and 5 erkins.  Hopped over the guardrail and jogged down the sidewalk back to their rock.  PAX held squat until 6th came in.  RINSE and repeat.  PAX cranked out 10 merkins waiting on 6th.  Time to wrap things up.  PAX began John Cusak around the tennis courts returning our rocks.

Mary:  Early arrivals to the tennis courts held balls to the walls; PAX circled up for a cool down focusing on Yoga stretches.  PAX got into downward dog, pigeon, warrior 1 and 2, and various other leg stretches.

Announcements:  Odyssey this weekend; HSHM; Deadbolt’s boat ride list – sign up early, spots are going fast.  Happy early birthday to Messi.

Prayer:  Romans 10:8-17. …Everyone who calls out to the Lord will be saved.

Lots of PAX nursing some leg injuries preparing for the HSHM – get healthy men!  Prayers for Crab Legs.  Nemo & Dauber shared the tragedy of a Cardinal Gibbons junior girl who died yesterday morning while driving to school.  As a parent of two teen drivers, this is one of my biggest fears / worst nightmares.  Love those around you, live life to the fullest, be kind, help others, for we are not in control.

F2:  Stick Boy – 6 PAX enjoyed some fellowship post the workout laughing it up over man wallets and coin wallets amongst other important topics of the day.

It remains a huge honor to lead all of you PAX.  -Dauber
