The Workout:  It was Dauber’s 3rd Q of his Birthday Week; His first as a 50 year old.  PAX were hungry for a beat down.  The following kettlebell exercises were executed with 10 reps:  swings, goblet squats, tricep curl, figure 8s + halo (L/R), bus driver, O/H presses; performed the following kettlebell exercises on our six: O/H press, Homer to Marge, Skull Crusher.  John Cusack to the Amphitheater; 10 Step-ups (L + R) without bell, 10 Derkins,Erkins and Dips; More kettlebell work in the Amphitheater including:  10 counts of Curls for the girls, swings, Goblet squat, figure 8, halos, O/H press, Outward press, Bus driver, Rur-rows, Man-maker/merkins.  Took our kettlebells for a walk around the tennis courts looking for a gun show.  Each PAX called out various k-bell exercises during our trek including the Midget 4 Life Love handle bends, front curls, one arm curls, tricep curls, k-bell holds in front, O/H presses.  As we approached a group of ladies working out under the shelter, Dauber yelled “NextExercise, Curls for the Girls!”  We received a friendly welcome as we exchanged pleasantries during our saunter and then Dauber simply asked, “Which way to the Gun Show?” And flexed his arm pointing forward!  PAX were entertained and kept exercising until they reached the parking lot whereby each PAX jumped rope 30X.  PAX without jump rope executed merkins.
Mary:   Dog pound wanted to surpass 25 burpees listening to “The Man”; Mission accomplished – 27 (at least).  A ton of SSH were performed while waiting for the MAN.

Substitute Teacher

UTI woke up not feeling well so Nemo took a quick glance at the workout he had planned and the PAX headed out to put in the effort.  EC credit to Nemo, Mookie, 187, M4L and Axe (with and “e”)

Warm Up: Lap around soccer fields followed by circle up for SSH, Good Mornings, Fazio Arm Circles, and some leg and arm stretch.
The Workout: Over the half pipe we split in 2 groups, each taking a hill.  OYO with accountability we lunge walked up the hill, 10 count Mt Climbers at the top, jog down and 10 Shoulder Taps IC.  Repeat x5.  Back the building we alternated Balls the Wall and Squat Jumps.  Started on a 10 count, then 15 and 20.  Did the same with Preachers Chair and Dips on the benches.  On the jog to far corner of soccer fields we partnered up.  Partner 1 was on the run down the greenway to the road and back with a nice uphill to finish, while partner 2 was doing LBCs or Squats.  Each ran the hill twice and each set of partners completed 200 LBCs and 200 Squats.  Split up for Indian Run to meet back at far corner of fields.
Mary: Circled up for a quick set of LBCs, Homer to Marge, Low Slow Flutters, Pickle Pounders and more LBCs.
Announcements: CSAUP this Saturday.  Lip Stick VQ Cletus tomorrow (look for some serious hill work)
Prayer: Lab Rat’s cousin’s baby still being treated, Double D and his family.  We talked about the message Double D shared at Possum Trot – the value of when we lift each other up and the video clip he posted about “Shoulder Taps”

The Hills Were Alive at Possum Trot – 19 Strong PAX

Warm Up:  Ran one loop around tennis courts circling up in parking lot for 20 SSH, 10 Cotton-Pickers, 10 Windmills, 10 Hillbillies, 10 Imperial Walkers, Good Mornings and 10 Arm Cicles (front & back)
The Workout:  PAX partnered up (size did not matter); one PAX grabbed a medium to large rock and made one line across the parking lot.  One partner began bear crawling to midway of parking lot pushing the rock while other partner skipped.  Changed roles at midpoint of parking lot and proceeded to the hill.  At the bottom of the hill, Dauber instructed PAX to send one partner up the hill – bear crawling.  Once they reached the top of the hill, each PAX performed a 7 count of either Derkins, Erkins or Dips on the guardrail OYO.  After completion, PAX carefully headed down the hill taking the rock over from their partner.  While one member was bear crawling, the other partner performed a rock exercise; each rock exercise consisted of 8-12 reps.  The exercise was called out by one PAX rotating up and down the line.  PAX were very creative calling out curls, squats, O/H presses, chest presses, squat presses…ONE caveat, the rock could never touch the ground unless it was a part of the called exercise or Dauber called Recover/Rest. If rock touched the ground, PAX performed 5 burpees.   Additional exercises were added with the rock from the six including, presses, WWIIs, Homer to Marge, etc.  Dauber called an audible and had each PAX run one lap around the tennis court while their partner continued with rock exercises.  Once one lap was completed, PAX swapped roles.  PAX helped bring in the six and began some core exercises started with planks, shoulder taps, merkins, diamond merkins, etc.  PAX returned rocks and met up in the tennis courts.  B2Wall and Al Gores until all PAX lined up for an impromptu monkey hoppers/grabbers.  More running ensued using the tennis courts and finished with alligator merkins to the end of the first court.  PAX and Q spent.
Mary:  Each PAX called out a 10-rep core exercise that began with box-cutters and end with burpees OYO.  At least 8 exercises were performed before running out of time.
Announcements:  CSAUP Greenville – Car pool if able
Prayer:  Double D spoke from the heart.  Strong message.  We hear about “thoughts and prayers”; if you look at some cable TV or social media posts, these powerful words are often dismissed.   Thay’s pure bunk.  These are very powerful words.  When they are spoken, they have powerful meaning and greatly help that person.  Double D asked for prayers for a child who suffered a terrible accident; prayers of thanks/praise for a successful surgery;  H1N1 recovery; final thoughts – loneliness is a killer, F3 brings men together…keep your eyes open for those who need F3.

PAX did great today!  Super job with the hill and rock exercises!

PAX included:  LED, Breech, 8-Bit? (2.0), Double-D, Farva, Vespa, Deadbolt, Gump, Mookie, Midget 4 Life, Stovepipe, R-22, 187, Nemo, Noah’s Ark, Butterfingers, FedEx, The Natural and your Q – Dauber (19 strong)
