Holy Crap, I almost stepped on a snake.

I rolled in to the parking lot with 10 minutes to spare. Two vehicles already in the parking lot. I was greeted by Boo Boo and Fanta. Got everything ready and a sighting by M4life. He was going to run with Lipton. Abe rolled in next. We hit the red trail first.  Midway through Boo Boo said something…and the way he did, I just broke camp and ran along with the rest of the PAX. He almost stepped on a snake that was trying to soak up a little heat off of the asphalt. We went back to investigate a little closer and it was a rat snake. This brought on a whole new meaning of being alert the rest of the way.

We Got Geriatrics on this Wall

YHC was fired up to Q after the return from BRR where I learned to hate running even less. With somewhat of a last minute decision to Q today, YHC decided to add an extra mile to the EC stroll this morning to ponder what we’d get into.  It was a beautiful morning for running, with the air finally easier to breathe. On my travels, YHC came up with this…

FNG’s: nope

Warm-Up: SSH x 40, Good Mornings, Hillbillies, Squatted Seal Claps x 15 each.  Mosey to the far end parking lot.
The Workout: 11’s.  Went between the end of the parking lot until about the center speed bump. We did Sumo Squat Jumps And Standard Merkins on the ends.

We then moseyed to the picnic shelter. We split into two groups. 1 group held Balls to the Wall while the other group did 1/3 count Jack Webb’s up to a 10 count.  Groups switch. Then…rinse and repeat.

Onto DORA. Partner runs loop around other shelter and back while partners work together to complete 100 irkins, 200 Freddie Mercury’s, and 300 squats.  Strong effort put in by all pax as we finished quite quickly.

So… more Wall work. This time it was 1 group doing People’s Chair while others did 25 count Dips. Switch groups. At this point, Sprinkler commented something about a lot of Wall work considering the presence of so many geriatrics…RESPECT! We repeated the above twice.
Mary: 15 counts of LBC, LSF, Homer to Marge, Pickle Pounders, Chill-Cut hold, Dying Cockroach. Finished with 10 burpees OYO.
Announcements: Mulch Sign Up. Sunday Hilltop Needmore Ruck will be Adopt A Highway cleanup Q’d By LED.
T-Claps (Recognition): Pax for strong effort, especially the three Masters among us.
Prayer: Our brother Tetanus to heal up. Unspoken. Bondo stepped up to take us out.  Honor to lead fellas!

The Workout: 12 PAX broke into groups of 3. Excercises per round were: #1 Merkins (Wide,Standard,Military,Diamond,Derkins) all on rocks and as many reps as Group #2 cadence would allow. #2 various abs exercises but drove the cadence, #3 Pull-ups (Wide, Standard, Narrow, Chin ups) 5 rounds completed. Partner up and did shoulder exercises. 1 partner ran across field and back as other person did (Arnold Press, Heavy Pants, Front Raise, Iso Arnold Press)

The Workout: Partner Pains sticks on deck for a field trip around the Needmorepark with some stops in between

In the tunnel, it was a peoples chair, curls for the girls, overhead press, followed by some partner squats and Rut Rohs

Continuing on to the old driving range for some partner chest presses, overhead low slo flutters, skull crushers, and hip weighted homer to marges.

Back to the tunnel for some 22 count Balls to the wall, in between the leg squats, and Australian Mountain climbers

Down the blue path for some hills work, followed by a merkin and abs stop. The final stop on the journey was a pain stick plank hold while the rabbit runs up the hill and back.

Finished up with a mosy back to the start, a good time had by all.

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.
