Billy Madison Visits To Be Determined

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

EC: LED, Fanny Pack, Fonzie, Katniss, Maybelline, Redenbacher, Yogurt

FNGs: Welcome (Wilson Robertson) Drum Circle! He went to App State and said it was a pretty groovy experience..  Thanks for bringing  him out Fonzie.

YHC made my inaugural Q at TBD so I wanted to make sure PAX got their money worth on this fine Wednesday morning in the gloom.  Seven of us headed out for Extra Credit with great pick ups of the 6 along the way. Returned to the flag for about 10 more PAX ready to get after it. Fonzie let me know we had an FNG so I laid down the disclaimer and off we went.

Warm Up:

A quick mosey to the center of the ball diamonds and then circled up for:

  • Good Morning x 12
  • Windmills x 12
  • Frankenstein x 12
  • Spinal Rotations x 12

We then took another quick mosey to the parking lot east of the soccer fields for the main event.

The Workout:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inspired by Billy Madison’s journey through back through school, this routine involves a running loop and exercise per grade. Begin with a loop (to simulate the grade) followed by an exercise with 12 reps as the exam. This concludes 1st grade. Run the loop again, followed by the 1st grade exercise x 12 reps plus a new exercise x 12 reps. This concludes 2nd grade. Continue with the loop and adding an exercise each time until you’ve completed one loop and exercise combo for each of the 12 grades.

Thunder YOGA w/ 19 PAX

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

FNGs:  Welcome Jukebox, future patrolman who loves to sing.  Thanks for bringing this young man out Pumpkin Spice.  Good to see your college basketball playing, former HS Hawk XC star, Cobbler, out to the gloom too.
Warm Up:  many PAX participated in VC.  Bike ride +10 miles.  PAX moist.
The Workout:  YOGA, much needed.  Look, I will simply attach a pic of the movements we executed.  Special thanks to Cancun who provided the play by play and color commentary of all the moves attempted.  I tried finding the prisoner terminology he used on this sheet I downloaded from the internet but was unable to locate the verbiage.  I will defer to Cancun for his intimate experiences.  Quite flexible for a 6’4” 260 pound dude.  Awesome.  The much anticipated spread Eagle was executed flawlessly by many.  Only a few PAX let out some flatulence.
Mary:  lots of stretching, balance stuff.  Full 45 mins of pure awesomeness IMO.
Announcements:  CSAUP, Murph, bed build, 5Ks, see Slack/FB
T-Claps (Recognition):  Happy Birthday Cancun!  All PAX killing it during May challenge.  Remember to listen to your body and REST.
Prayer:  Interrupted by geese, goslings and churlish children, YHC chided them and finished up in thoughtful, loving prayers only a seasoned parent could pull off.

Honored to lead – Dauber.

Sheepdog VS Kung Pow

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

YHC hasn’t been to Sheepdog in a while and as I thought through my pre-blast I landed on my typical adversarial AO messaging to stoke some fires and get a little attention.  In my mind, it was only natural to pit Sheepdog (a martial arts founded AO) against the oriental-sounding Kung Pow AO.  I fired off a spicy pre-blast, got the side-eye from Deadbolt and a shot from POTS (the scheduled Q of the one-day/UTI nominated nemesis of Sheepdog.)  SUCCESS!!! Now, POTS fired back/commented/assumed if there was to be a martial arts Q by YHC, Shredder would need to be on hand to lead the PAX.  An often forgotten (by me) and seldom shared fact about YHC is that I am a 3rd Degree Brown Belt in Tae Kwon Do.  Granted, my last practice of this craft would have been 25 years ago.  Oh well, this will be fun – let’s see what I can shake out of my head from the past\movies\tv.

FNGs: ani

Warm Up:

PAX circled up in the parking lot at the front of the school

  • The Bow aka Good Mornings
  • On / Wax Off aka Fazio Arm Circles (Forward and Back)
  • The “Crain” aka Balance on one leg (Left and Right)
  • Kicking Practice aka Frankensteins
  • Stacking Zen Stones aka Potato Pickers
  • Carioca (Left and Right)
  • High Knees
  • Run in Reverse
  • Fast Feet (one curb then the other alternating sides)

The Workout:

East (literally and figuratively)

  • Overhead Blocks (left and right arm)
  • Punching from Ready Position (left and right arm)
  • Front Facing Kick aka Lunge Walk with a kick from one parking lot island to the next
  • Front Facing Punch aka Lunge Walk with a punch from one parking lot island to the next
  • Front Facing Combo aka Lunge Walk with a kick followed by a punch from one parking lot island to the next
  • Front Facing Combo aka Lunge Walk with a kick followed by a punch from one parking lot island to the next
  • Kick from Side Stance – kick and rotate around into side stance moving from one island to the next
  • Cobra Run aka Indian Run to the back of the school – West
    • Awesome move by BeerPressure over the gate

West (literally and figuratively)

  • Cobra Run continued around the loop behind the school and finished at the brick half walls
  • PAX partnered up, One PAX ran while the other one did an exercise below.  On return they switched off.  This continued until YHC said stop
    • Box Jumps
    • Erkins
    • Derkins
    • Dips
  • PAX gathered together to do Box Jumps together.  We got to 25, YHC was keeping count but no one was counting out loud so we just kept going until someone gave me a number.
  • Cobra Run back to the EAST – not to be outdone, LED showed his skills as he cleared the gate on the way back.

Mary:

  • Flutter Kicks aka Low Slow Flutters
  • Bruce Lee Abs – LBCs
  • Shredder helped us take the moves from the “EAST” portion of our workout and apply some practical execution around actually using those moves against an opponent. We practiced a kick to the abdomen followed by a punch to the nose.

Announcements:  Tequila Sunrise is open tomorrow.  No Q points but points for showing up, EC and a new AO if you haven’t been yet

T-Claps (Recognition):

  • Martini for pushing through and coming out today.  If you have an excuse for not being out here, it’s probably not as good as Martini’s and he showed up!
  • Thanks to Shredder for putting some instruction and some labels on my workout today

Prayer:

  • Shredder for his upcoming belt exam
  • Deuce for his recovery
  • Martini for his recovery
