FNGs: Not Today
Warm Up: A few jokes were being thrown out as we huddled before the workout. YHC didn’t take them lightly, so we Mosey off for a quick 0.7 Mile loop.  YHC wasn’t impressed with the effort on the run and called out 34 Burpees OYO to get things started! Circled up for SSH x34, Moroccan Night Clubs x17, hold squat for seal claps x17, right into Monkey Humpers x17. Mosey to back side of HT
The Workout: We continued where we left off yesterday with the shoulder burn and found some wall on the back of HT. People’s Chair until PAX brought it in. BTW hold for 10 seconds, shoulder tap BTW x10, hold BTW for 10 seconds and then shoulder tap BTW x10. We rinsed and repeated! Mosey over by car wash to find some rail. Erkins x17, Derkins x17 Dips x34, Rinse and Repeat. Next we mosey over to the Goodwill lot for some Empty Wheelbarrow Doracides. We got into groups of 3. 2 Pax did Empty Wheelbarrow suicides using 5 parking spots (Think of a crab walk wheelbarrow 🙂 ) While the 3rd pax of the group worked on the Dora 100 Merkins, LBC’s & Squats. Upon completion I told the PAX about YHC and Peeping Tom’s exercise that made the F3 exicon, the Peeping Lipstick. We did 10 Peeping Lipsticks OYO to commemorate the induction into the Exicon (Think Turkish Get up Star Jump)
Mary: Mary was given a nice 9 minutes this morning for some Abys work. We did various excercises from our six and plank position. We ended with American Hammers x17 and my favorite Diamond Merkins x17

FNGs: none

Warm Up: the usual suspects – SSH, IW/HB, leg and arm stretches, good mornings

The Workout: Dora’s ugly step-sister Mora(?)

Pax broke into groups of 3.

Partner 1 starred at bottom of the hill completing in no specific order (at least) 100 reps of each with a rock – curls for the girls, shoulder/chest press, tricep extensions.

While partner one was repping, partner 2 ran up the hill, stopping mid way to enjoy 5 burpees before making it to partner 3. Partner 3, who was at the top, was working through (in no specific order) (at least) 100 reps of each – merkins, squats, and WWII’s.

Relay race style, once partner 2 reached partner 3, partner 3 ran down (stopping mid way for that lovely burpee break) to partner 1 and the bob and weave continued until the one-year-old-F3 :Q wrapped up this warm up (27 min deep) and sent the PAX moseying to the tennis courts

After a brief plank hold for the six and some mumble chatter about Mary…. we lined up on the baseline for more fun

1st set – bear crawl 1/2, jog 1/2  across courts into 20 shoulder tap balls to the wall with a 1/2 bear crawl 1/2 jog back to starting line for 1:5 deep squat into calf raises

Warm Up: YHC welcomed the crowd to his 37th bday bash, little anxious for some reason but got it going quick.  Explained to the gang that we were going to do 37 – 1 min exercises (cadence/OYO); then circle up for Mary.  I broke it up into Heats and tried to incorporate an Upper, Lower, Core and Run into each one.  Here’s how it went down…

The Workout:

Warm up: FAC’s (fwd/rev), Leg Stretches/Frankenstiens,  Good Mornings/Side Stretches, Run around tennis court and pick up rock (last part took a little longer than 1 min so we made up for it next)

Heat 1: Curls for the Girls (1,2) with Squat (3,4) with rock, Imp. Walkers, run around tennis court (run took a little longer than 1 min so again we made up for it next)

Heat 2: Overhead Press (1,2) with Lunge in place (3,4) with rock, Hillbillies, run (this time to the hill and back to stay on time)

Heat 3: Alternating Merkins with rock, Homer to Marge (alternating leg raise), LBC’s, run to Snack Shack

Heat 4: Durkins, Box Jumps/Step Ups, WWII’s, run up hill and back

Heat 5: Balls to Wall and People’s Chair (swapping every 30 secs, American Heel Taps, run up hill and back

Heat 6: Urkins, Monkey Humpers, J. Lo’s, run up hill back to rock

Heat 7: YHC asked for a 10 count…then back to it; rut rows, star jumps, American Hammers with rock, run to hill and back

Cool Down: Tri Extensions with rock, Al Gore with rock (bus driver style if you choose), Plank Hold (PAX were doing different variations based on ability/call outs; good work men!), run to return rock, meet back at tennis court

Wait! What!? That’s only 36 exercises…oh yeah, here is the +1, 10 Burpees OYO

Mary: We had Mary with all kinds of exercises; Freddy Mercury’s, Box Cutters, Diamond Merkins, others I can’t remember…but we did finish with 5 Burpees OYO.

It was a great honor to lead you all today, each one of you has an impact on my journey and so many others.  Great work out there and way to push each other, I appreciate you all!

EC: H1N1, Messi, Fonzie, LED, 16-Bit

FNGs: None

Warm Up: 9- PAX ; Lap around parking lot with Carioca, High Knees, Butt Kickers.  Circled up for Good Mornings, Cotton Pickers,  SSH, FAC’s (fwd/rev), Arm Stretches

The Workout: Today is YHC’s last day at 36 yrs old so a little Pre-Bday beat down was due…so the theme was 36 or a variation of.  First off we started with a modified 11’s (I called it 3’s & 6’s/6’s & 3’s)…PAX lined up on one end of parking lot, ran/jogged to halfway, dropped for 3 merkins and up for 6 Bobby Hurley’s, ran back to start, dropped for 6 merkins and up for 3 Bobby Hurley’s…we did this 8 times so you end up with 36 merkins/36 Bobby Hurley’s and out of breath; that humidity was something serious.  While we are trying to remember what number/exercise we were on there was this prehistoric squawking close by, PAX were concerned but pressed on, she must have seen the sweat ground beasts and moved on.

Next we got back to the start line after a 10 count and began and Alligator March…YHC saw and Alligator Merkin so I incorporated this into a March or Crawl.  Down in plank, begin crawling like an Alligator while performing Alligator Merkin (off angle Merkin)…pain and displease ensued and we ended up move a few more paces in between Merkins to other end of parking lot/trash can.  Lots of mumble chatter afterwards…sounds like a new trick in the bag.

Another 10 count to catch breath (man the air was thick) and on to the next, Paula Abdul (2 steps forward, 1 step back).  PAX lined up on parking space line, Lunge two parking spaces, jog/walk backwards one space back, down to 1 Burpee; Lunge two parking spaces, jog/walk backwards one space back, down to 2 Burpees; continue this theme until you reach 8 Burpees…this will equal 36 Burpees when complete.  Impressed with PAX determination to complete this…heart rates were up!

10 count again, man it was swampy…PAX lined up single file for a modified Indian Run leaving about 7 ft between, this was so we could plank hold while last PAX runs to front, continue until first is last, repeat but with Plank Jacks, then repeat again but with Mountain Climbers…then we stood up, turned 180 degrees and rinse/repeat…shoulders were toast.

Mary: On your six, 6in hold (10 count), low slow flutter (10 count), WWII – 16 ; finish with 36…HAND!

Warm Up: A quick run to get the blood flowing in an atypical route. Circled up for Good Mornings, Windmills, Fozio Arm Circles, Imperial walkers and then Hillbillies. All in cadence for a 10 count.

The Workout: Pax headed to the soccer field after warm up for partner suicides. 100 count exercises were performed to include Merkins, Freddie Mercury’s, Shoulder taps, and Squats.  This evolution was followed with partner wheel barrow.

Pax then headed over to the playground for 100 count dips ( 4 sets of 25).

Final evolution was partner step ups for 100 count.   Each would complete a total of 50 step ups ( 3 rounds of 20,20,10) while other partner holds Balls to the Wall then Peoples Chair then back to Balls to the Wall.

 

Mary: Pax heading back to the soccer field for alternating sides of superman with a hold at the last 15 repetition. This was followed by regular superman 15 reps followed by a hold . Pax flipped on over to do Homer to Marge 15 reps with hold on final repetition.  Then 15 more each side with one leg up with hold. Finally, low slow flutter 15 count cadence followed by hold on final count.

Are We Playing Ultimate Today!!!

PAX: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

As we were waiting for the clock to strike 5:30 our little circle kept getting big as Pax continued to arrive. This prompted Gump to ask “Are we playing ultimate today?” because we ended up having 19 Pax come out to the gloom at Mutiny, with 4 doing EC, and with that we started with a lap around the track.

Warm Up: SSH x 25, Fozie Arm Circles F x 10 R x 10, Imperial Walkers x 10, Punch Up Merkins IC x 20

The Workout: Lined up across the parking lot to do  break dancers and bear crawls. Started at the first line with 1 break dancer and then bear crawl to the first line then crawl bear back to start, then do 2 break dancers and bear crawl to the second line then crawl bear back to start, etc….. Went up to 5.     We then moysed over to the rock pile to pick an exercise friendly rock. Had the Pax line up on the field for 7 exercise circuits, 10 circuits starting with 10 reps IC with each circuit decreasing by one rep and you couldn’t drop your rock until we all got through the circuit or we’d all be doing 5 burpees OYO. Needless to say one person, not saying any names, kept dropping his rock. The exercises were curls for the girls, shoulder press, tricep extension, rut rows, squats, upright rows, and chest press.
