I picked up the Q as a trade with Bing who will be taking the reigns in the April. – Watch out

It turned out to be a good trade too, as I would be Q’ing with Aquaman.
I often see people complaining about his Q’s after they post. “The Pain, the pain!”

– Sweet!

The Thing

Warm up
– SSH
– Merkins
– Imperial Walker
– Windmills

Stroll around the field discovering four markers along the way…

A little game of “Four Corners”.

Partner up

Returning to the first marker, partner one would perform an exercise as slow as possible while partner two would run a lap around the four stations as fast as possible. Partners switch positions on return.

The goal of the effort was to have as low of a count between the two as possible.
To keep things even and aid accountability at the stations, the cadence was to be managed by the pax together. We would do this for each station.

Station 1 – Merkins
Wheelbarrow to station 2
Station 2 – Squats
Slow bear crawl to station 3
Station 3 – the Burpee
Wheelbarrow (partner switch) to station 4
Station 4 – Mountain Climbers (methinks)

With the six in, we moseyed to the middle of the field.
Jack Web 10/40 (don’t forget to count)
Pax Choice ab lab – Everyone had a turn

The Q was then turned over to Aquaman

With the rising sun, we ventured out of the park…
Off to that friendly sounding Tara Tea Drive… (what a monster…)

Cones were placed along the side of the road from the bottom of the hill to the top

We were to do exercises from one cone to the next
First cone to second: burpee broad jumps
second to third: Ono’s
Third to top of hill: Bear Crawl

After we summited this the first time, Aqauman says:
“Find a good pace, we’ll be doing this for awhile…” and… we did…

Excellent effort by all men, I think everyone summited Tara Tea at least four times.

Next, Aquaman doubled the cones and we did reverse suicide ladder up that monster. (Nobody misses this.)

Then we posted at the top of the hill where we did ab work using the incline to your dis-advantage.
Goal: 50 leg raises from decline / 50 sit-ups from decline

With that we were broken! Aye!

NMM

I had a theme in mind for the workout this morning, but when it looked like the pax were all my seniors, I dropped the theme realizing that I had nothing to share but respect. Humbling experience to post with my elders as they take the DRP. #Respect

Here is what struck me as I was leaving the post that morning…

First: What is your weinke this weekend? This week? This month?

Second: Are you going to honor it?

Never give up, take your ground and press on. Aye!
