The Workout: Bring the PAIN!

Began with 5 slides in a basketball defensive stance followed by one burpee. Rinse and repeat adding an additional burpee each time until the roundabout was reached.

Mosey’d to the rockpile and each PAX picked out a rock and circled up for some heavy lifting. Q called an audible and had PAX rotate to the right and workout with another PAX’s selected rock. Proceeded with the workout – Curls for the girls, overhead triceps, ruh-rohs, and rock merkins (10 with left left hand on rock and switched for 10 more with right hand on rock).

Returned rocks and mosey’d to picnic shelter for some irkins, dirkins, merkins, and dips. Performed 10 count of each exercise IC. Some mubble chatter about a 10 count but Q continued on with a rinse and repeat.

Finished out the beat-down with three rounds of Balls to the Walls and Preacher Chairs for 30 seconds each exercise.

Dauber took over and warmed up the PAX with the following exercises: 20 SSH, 10 Flower/Cotton pickers, 10 Windmills, 10 Imperial Walkers right into 10 Hillbillies; Left arm and Right arm stretches. It was a nice start to this sub 30 degree clear morning.

The Workout: PAX of 16 (welcome friendly face Natty Ice) broke into two groups, odds began 10 left up/downs followed by 10 right up/downs on the wall while evens held BTTW on the concession stand wall for a 20 count cadence count; swapped positions and completed the previous exercise. Rinse and Repeat. PAX walked to the driveway lining up into two lines. PAX performed Frankensteins, high knees, open doors, and Karaoke (R/L) to the parking lot. Each PAX grabbed a medium-sized rock and circled up in the parking lot. In honor of President George H. W. Bush passing last week, PAX performed a total of 41 reps (10, 10, 10, 11) of the following rock exercises: Rut-Ros, Curls, Tricep Curls, Squats. PAX moved one space to the right before executing next exercise. Once completed, PAX got on their six, knocked out 15 rock presses, 15 skull crushers and 15 Homer to Marge passing the rock to the right again before each exercise. PAX John Cusack back to the rock pile and met up on the tennis courts. Lots of mumble chatter as Q forgot his left and right and pulled a Lipsync with his rep counts).
Mary: 12 Days of Christmas (F3 Style): Q passed out 12 index cards to 12 unsuspecting brothers. Each index card had a number (1-12) and a corresponding exercise. We missed R-22 for special 5th day. In the spirit of The Twelve Days of Christmas, F3 gave to me….

PAX and Q were spent. Dauber asked Double D for a 10-count hold. PAX knew they were in trouble when Double D went off count a few times. (Must have been that new math) It messed up the Q as he tried holding plank which looked more like a yoga move with his a$$ high in the air. Recovered after a lengthy time.
