Never Have I Ever

YHC raised his hand to fill in for Norm yesterday afternoon when he needed a substitute Q.  I was hoping to get a chance to Q this week but the Qsheet was pretty full for they days I wanted so I was in luck when he needed help.  I wanted to create my own BRR friendly workout which, evidently, is a confusing concept.  To me, BRR friendly is easy on the legs.  Gotta save them for later this week.  With that in mind I formed together a loose plan in my head and figured I’d sort the rest out as we went.

FNGs:

None today

Warm Up:

Quick lap around the track and then circled up for:

Good morning x10 IC

Windmill x10 IC

Daisy Picker x10 IC

Willie Mays Hayes x10 IC

Imperial Walkers x10 IC

Hillbilles x10 IC

The Workout:

Moseyed down to the first parking lot island and lined up.  The idea was to crab walk 4 spots, do an exercise, crab walk another 4 spots, another exercise, 4 more spots to the end, and another exercise.  Then we flipped over and bear crawled 4 spots, did an exercise, etc., etc.  Rinse and Repeat.   The exercises were:

Crab:

Crab Cakes x10 IC

Crab humpers x10 IC

Crab jacks x10 IC.  Fram was adamant that never in his life had he done these before.  Good thing he ruminated on it later or else we would have completely forgotten Name o Rama. “Never in my 42 years…hey, wait…”

Bear:

Shoulder taps x10 IC

Merkins x10

Nipplers x10 IC

 

After those two laps we went down to the rock pile, grabbed a rock, and circled up around the picnic tables for some upper body rock work.  With our own rocks first we did Curls for the Girls x10 IC then put the rocks down and did 10 Irkins.  Rotate one rock to the right and do triceps extension x10 IC and 10 dirkins.  Rotate again and 10 IC overhead presses and then 10 dips.  Next rock over got 10 bus drivers IC and another 10 dips.  Rotate and 10 chest presses on our six followed by 10 dirkins.   Last rotation was 10 trunk twists and 10 irkins.  Then we did the whole thing over again but this time rotated rocks to the left.

Once we got through two laps of that we partnered up and did two sets of 10 roman situps (hang off the end of the table, face down, holding the rock on your chest and “sitting” up using your back) with the rocks per partner.  After that we ran over to the playground to do 10 pullup OYO because we can do that again.  Once those were done we went up to the nameless brick building to do 10 count BTTW by each PAX.  Then off to the tennis courts

Mary:

LBC Circuit.  10 IC regular LBCs, 10 reverse, 10 with knees on the ground to the left, 10 with knees on the ground to the right.

LSF x10 IC

HAND

Announcements:

Hardy has another ninja competition today at Rock Solid Warrior.  Wish him luck.

Prayer:

Everyone running this weekend.  Unspoken.

 

Thanks for the opportunity to lead this morning gentlemen.  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Q-Duel Cletus – Sprinkler 1 year anniversary and the BIG 50!

EC:  Katniss, Boy George, Dahmer, Nemo, Norm, Flyby from Vasoline

FNGs: Welcome @Fanta
Warm Up:  Mosey to the far lot to keep the noise down a “little”.  10 X Fazio Arm circles FW & REV, 15X Overhead Claps, 10X Imperial Walkers, 10X Hillbillies, 20X SSH
The Workout:

It was a celebration week for Sprinkler.  He had his 1yr F3 anniversary this week and turned the big 50 today.  RESPECT!  What better way to celebrate than an F3 party!  41 STRONG today.  Nice showing F3Southwake, way to end the HS Q-Duel week!!!

Count off by 2’s and divide up.

1’s with Sprinkler and 2’s with YHC:

1’s stayed in place for Round 1 11’s , 2’s headed to the lot by the Rock Pile for Round 2 11’s

Well the plan is below, but since we split up I can’t speak for both groups.  I can say that there were a lot of bear crawls for the 2’s and a lot of modifying on the fly (for time!).  I heard group 1 got in a lot of Bear Crawls also and that was the main plan; so all went well.  The surprise for me was the Pavillion intermission which turned out to be a beast!  We had a Round 3 planned just in case, but not a chance on that one!  I’m sharing and saving the workout below because I would like to complete it as written sometime.  It’s a great start to a CASUP if you ask me!

We even had an FNG today.  Welcome Fanta, from San Diego and use to work for Pepsi!

Co-Q Duel Kickoff at Downtown Train

F3 Southwake Co-Q Duel got started in a big way at DT. Record attendance for this site that averages 3-5 #HIM as we had 36 strong post. Was excited to have our newly named Weasel Shaker, and a guy who has had a major impact on me over the past few years, Mookie as the surprise Co-Q. DT is sort of like a “poor man’s Disney”, lots of great rides available and I was looking forward to showing a couple of them off for all the new faces posting to DT for the 1st time. Mookie and I decided to do a little split Q so everyone had a chance to spend time with both of us, and we went with 2 DT classics – repeats on Cemetery Hill, and a visit the drug store. Mookie would lead the hill work and I would take drug store with a group switch in the middle. Quite the impressive scene as I headed back to the lot from EC to find guys looking for overflow parking. Was cool to see guys reconnecting and catching up a bit on life, with some great mumble chatter out there this morning. Thanks to all who posted and thanks for a solid start to the donations for Healing Transitions.

FNGs: Not today, but I noticed several of or newer guys out there this morning. and it’s great to see you all coming back and really getting to be part of F3.
Warm Up: Stayed at the flag knowing we would be opening the workout with a jog and we did some SSH, Good Mornings, Fazio Arm Circles, Mt Climbers and of course, a Nemo classic the Goofballs.
The Workout: Counted off by 2s to split the group and headed out on the jog towards Earp where 1 group veered off the tracks to head over to Cemetery Hill and the other headed up and along the back road to the drug store. Mookie took his group through hill repeats and focused on keeping together by adding sets of burpees at the bottom, merkins at the top and mixing in low slow flutters, shoulder taps and LBCs. Cemetery Hill is a DT favorite and I was glad to see Mookie pushing the PAX to put in the work on these repeats. At the drug store we worked through another DT classic set that really just involves doing a bunch of different stuff with little, if any, recovery. Without details of count/cadence it went something like this: BTTW, People’s Chair, BTTW, straight into plank, shoulder taps, plank, merkins, plank, nipplers, plank – then on the feet and hold out the arms, slow seal claps, hold out arms, overhead claps, hold out arms – then drop and bear crawl across lot, plank hold for 6 then merkins, then crab walk back. Recover, repeat. We worked in some SSH too, and 2nd set we stopped short of the bear crawls for time. After the full set at each spot, the groups met midway and swapped. Then we converged again for a fellowship jog back the flag.
Mary: Circled up and did a set of 6″ hold/low slow flutter, LBC, Homer to Marge, American Hammers. Then Mookie treated us to some clockwork merkins and closed us out with some good stretches.
Announcements: After name-o-rama we brought back a tradition I really like and we asked the 6th man in the count to tell us how he got his name and what he has appreciated about F3. Tetanus was the 6 in the circle and he explained his name and talked about how he appreciates the accountability and how he looks forward to posting. Co-Q Duel continues this and next week – head over to Nutcracker tomorrow for Moby and some surprise Co-Qs, Mulching Bass Lake going well.
T-Claps (Recognition): Guys out on EC, Boy George for posting after a tough 50k trail race this weekend, everyone who brought donations, Pikachu for a great setup for trunk coffee 2nd F
Prayer: Let’s keep Quiver’s uncle and family in our prayers as he recovers from covid, unspoken, YHC shared a message about the work we each need to put in to being good leaders. 10 count silent for unspoken and YHC took us out.

Honor to lead and to co-Q with Mookie, hope you all have a strong start to the week
