Leading up to YHCs Q of Ultimate, a request came in from Abacus to allow for a soccer game to be played in the extra field.  The hope was to gain enough interest to have the soccer game fully populated while also easing the size of the Ultimate game.  Unfortunately, we didn’t get enough interest for the soccer game and 2 games of Ultimate took shape.  Kudos to Abacus for attempting to create some “game” diversity to perhaps draw a different group of enthusiasts and keep things interesting.

Warm Up: 

  • good mornings, willie mays haze, franks

The Workout:

  • 2 Games of Ultimate, 4 teams.
  • Variables for Gameplay
    • Game Start involved each team lining up at their endzone line with a sprint to the middle where the disc was set.  The first team to get the disc got to start their move to the opposing endzone.
    • On Score, there was no “kick-off”, instead the disc was immediately turned over to the opposing team to start their advance to the other side.
    • No Workouts on drops or scores were included
Mary: None

FNGs: Gatorade and Hotwheels

Announcements:

  • Sombrero getting close on a service day from the Town of Holly Springs
  • Look out for an opportunity to volunteer for HollyFest.
    • Setup, F3 Tent Time, Tear Down, Town Support

Prayer:

  • No OYO – In F3 Speak that means Not On Your Own.  We are part of a community here and we should act as a shoulder to hold up the guy next to us.  If you need help, ask for it.  If you see someone in need, dont wait to be asked.  The cause for sudden loss of Hayden Panettiere (36) has yet to be determined but the news reports on her history with depression, alcholism, and domestic violence.
  • 2.0s return to school and some off to college.  Keep them safe and provide them with the strength required to get back into the swing of school.

I’ve been out of town for a few weeks with work and some vacation.  I was keeping up with Slack to see all the great mumblechatter about the Qsheet and the push by Lipstick, followed by Sardine to lead.  I knew I wouldnt be around earlier in the week, looking down the line I could see these dudes werent playing around, not much was left but I did find Cletus open for Friday.  LFG

Warm Up: 

  • SSH, good mornings, windmills, willie mays haze, franks
  • Mozy through the baseball field spectator area and train everyone on the workout for Thang 1

The Workout:

Thang 1: DORA Obstacle Course

From the far entrance of the Cletus baseball fields, pair up and switch off until DORA is completed.

Partner 1 starts on the DORA exercises – 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, 300 Squats

Partner 2 makes their way to the center snack shack.  On the way they…

  • Complete Carioca in either direction, splitting the distance until they reach the bleachers
  • Picking either set of bleachers, go up and then down the entire height of the seats
  • Once complete, mozy to the dugout and complete ball walkers from one end to the other.  Balls2Walls while walking on hands.
  • Mozy around the snack shack and return mozy to Partner 1 to switch off

*** Quick Intermission for 15 Penalty Burpees for late arrivals ***

Thang 2: 7s on the Hill

We mozy’d from the far baseball entrance around the back of the fields to the small hill between 2 fields.

  • Bottom of Hill start with 1 burpee
  • Run Up Hill
  • Top of hill, 6 Big Boy Situps
  • Run Down Hill
  • Repeat adding/subracting 1 until the last round is 6 burpees and 1 Big Boy Situp.

Hill Loop of Mutiny

/in /by

7 lucky crew members showed up to the Mutiny this gloom not knowing what they’d signed up for. YHC kept the plans buried like treasure in the pre-blast, and the PAX found out soon enough: three trips around the Loop, and a wet hill with a grudge.

Warm-Up

Circled up for:

  • SSH

  • Good Mornings

  • Don Quixotes

  • Imperial Walkers

  • Hillbillies

  • Sir Fazio (fwd + rev)

  • Seal Claps

  • Overhead Claps

The Thang

Ran the loop around the soccer field 3 times. One exercise at each of the 4 corners, with a different mode of transportation to get you from one corner to the next:

  • Corner 1 — 10 Merkins. Travel to the next corner: Bear Crawl on lap 1, Crab Walk on lap 2, a BC/CW combo on lap 3.

  • Corner 2 — 15 WWI Sit-ups Mosey to the next corner.

  • Corner 3 — 10 Lunges each leg, IC. Then straight into the hill: up backwards to the nearest fence post at the top, back down backwards, 1 burpee on the pavement at the bottom, then up to the third post (skipping one post on the way), down forward. Laps 1 and 2 ran the full sequence with the burpee. Time was short by lap 3, so the crew ran it forward up and down only, no burpee, to get us through the rest of the workout on schedule.

  • Corner 4 — 5 Burpees Mosey back around to Corner 1 and go again.

Mary

Popcorned exercises across the group: Low Slow Flutters, Pickle Pounders, Homer to Marge, American Hammers, Box Cutters, LBCs, Windshield Wipers.

COT

Announcements: Ruck Sack raffle still ongoing.

T-Claps: UTI named Nantan. Congrats!

Prayer: Prayers for Flip Phone and his family, mourning a recent loss. Prayers for Jolly (and family) as he moves through a season of major transition — retiring from the Navy and starting a new chapter.

Closing Remarks: Proud of this crew. Nobody knew what the Loop had in store and everybody showed up anyway — that’s the whole point. The hill doesn’t care how many times you’ve run it, it’s still going to be there tomorrow. So are we.

YHC out.
