Cletus – Spontaneous Q
/in , /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , ,

EC: LED, Woody, Yogurt. Arrived at 5 am fully expecting to see Breach and his truck full of toys. Oh, he’ll be here for the main event. His pre-blast indicated he was ready to go and bringing coupons. Surely he’ll be here for he main event! OK, 5:30 rolls around–no Breach! I love Q-ing at Cletus, so here goes?
Warm Up: Mosey to top of Ivan lot. Circle up for 50 SSHs, series of arm circles (front, back, seal claps, overhead, chinooks). Gillette rolled in just a minute late, so we all did five burpees OYO. Thanks Gillette, I like burpees.

The Workout: Mosey to amphitheater and the ledge. Lined up for derkins in an Indian Run formation. That is, everybody plank up in derkin position, tight to one end. The phrase “tighten up” triggered the human jukebox–Arthur Fonzarelli (Fonzie) to sing “Tighten Up” by Archie Bell and the Drells–nice! The “Indian” does five merkins, calling them out. Then, runs to head of the line. Cycle through til each PAX had done three rounds. Additional round including step ups and dips. This took a while.

OK, let’s do the same formation, but with balls to the wall (BTW) and preacher’s chair. We went all the way around the back wall of the amphitheater twice. This took a while. But, on the second round of BTW, the wall shifted and we stopped that exercise.

Mosey to the playground. Time for a mini-Murph. Partner up for accountability. Partners do five pullups together, then do 15 merkins together. Next, partners for five pullups together, then do 20 squats together. We continued for as many rounds as possible until 6 minutes before end of workout.

Mosey to pickleball courts with radar guns for Mary

Mary: Popcorn Mary
Announcements: F3 picnic; Expect to see Dr. Ryan next Friday (6/24/22), a Spartan racer that Cupid, Gillette, and I head-locked. Woody rolled by and said, “Never not head-locking”!
Prayer: Stubs and family, 3-Alarm full recovery

PT Throwback

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

For the third day in a row, YHC was at the helm. EC was skipped due to some fatigue. Rolled up with 4 mins to spare for some mumble chatter. Nine pax were ready to do some work. I wanted to relive some old school workouts at PT so that’s what we did. Everyone survived but not without some moaning and groaning. Heck I think I ever moaned some from my stupid ideas.

YHC had all intentions of an earlier start to get some EC in with the boys before Mutiny. Alarm went off 0435 and I was awake but then sleep hit me again. Woke up again 0510…holy crap! Passed on taking the dog out and taking a dump, shot out the door and made it on time with 2 mins to spare. Did a little mumble chatter then got us started. Good to see Puddles visiting from Beaufort.

Warmed up with Red October
SSH x20
Cotton Pickers (done with proper form) x10
Mtn climbers x20
Goofballs x20
Then we split off. Once we got to the small hill I turned around and saw on 2 guys with me of which one was an FNG. I thought this might be bad for this guy. He had no clue was FNG stood for but kept saying it during the workout. I think he thought it was a curse word or something.

Tiny Hill will break you
11’s – deep squat into calf raise at top and alternating shoulder tap merkins at bottom
Crawl bear up hill and bear crawl down

Mosey towards lower lot. Lieutenant Dans across the lot then over to the rock pile.

With rock we did

As promised a never done before F3 workout Indoors! Basketball full Court!!

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

Warm Up: Moseyed to indoor Basketball gym.

Stood on Baseline for the Pledge of All Allegiance

Workout: We had exactly 20 so we divided up into 4 groups and played 2 separate games of full court 5 on 5. We rotated after halfway. I don’t think our ball skills were very sharp in the beginning. Most of the PAX got better as time progressed except for Guatemalan. He pretty much stood in the same place every time and asked for the ball.

I know sometimes we do a lot of the same things every week. Thought this would be fun to mix it up a bit. Those that shined like @pumps because he has skills and @Fram the rest made up for it in fouls and large bodies pushing and shoving. Thank God we did not call fouls today. I would have fouled out before the second game…BTW I am pretty sure my Team won both games @bobby bouche @deadbolt @mookie @maddog. Next time we play @banannaseat will be on a 3-man team due to his speed!

 

Mary: No Time

T Claps: Bosshog and the new addition to the Family! Congratulations

Prayers: Thanks for the prayer support for my Mom. Our Country, Injured PAX, 3rd cousin who took a dive OTW back. Hope he is okay!
