So what happens when your number is called to Q at an AO and in a region you’ve not posted to yet? What happens when you’re paired with Cable Guy as your Q partner? What do you do? What do I do? I grab a deck of cards and show my appreciation at The Deep in Lake Wylie. We almost hit double digits and once the final car pulled in, I was surrounded by 8 other men ready to play cards. Cable Guy and I decided that I would take the first half of this party so after a brief disclaimer and an explanation, we were off.

Mosey to an adjacent lot for a quick warm-up consisting of:
SSH
Moroccan Night Clubs
Wind Mills
20yd Walking Lunges

Circle up around the deck for 1 cycle through:
Hearts: Carolina Dry Docks
Spades: Mountain Skiers
Diamonds: Diamond Merkins
Clubs: Butt Kickers
Jokers/Ads: 10 Burpees

Once we went through 1 time, we had 2mins left so we filled that with box cutters then revers box cutters. I will tell you, it’s been a long time since I’ve played cards but this is a workout that never disappoints. Sweat was pooling all around us and it was hard to catch my breath. So this was the perfect time to hand off to Cable Guy.

With that, he led us on a mosey to the field where we’d pick a partner.
First partner back peddles the 100yds while the other partner forward with him. Bring it back in reverse and repeat the whole thing.
Ditch the partner for some burpicides:
Run to the 1st line for 1 Burpee then back to the start for 1 Burpee. Do this until you get to 6 Burpees.
Partner up again and while the first partner starts with single count American Hammers going to 500, the other partner hits the 3 lines on the field with 2 Burpees at the first then back, 4 at mid-field then back, 6 at the third line then back. Swap with your partner and do this until 500 American Hammers are in the books.
Finish up with more 3-tiered burpicides of 7, 8 & 9 Burpees at the three lines. To say this crowd pleaser gassed the PAX is a massive understatement. It was one of those times and you seriously think you’re hallucinating b/c surely, the Q didn’t just say what I heard, did he? Oh yes. Oh yes he did. How I didn’t splash merlot at the end of this was amazing.

That is what it’s like to Q The Deep in Lake Wylie with Cable Guy. Brutally awful yet awesome. Welcome to F3. Great words by Royale at COT this morning. T-Claps to this man as he brings the energy, the emphasis and the opportunity to share the leadership. He has a great sales pitch and challenges other men to step forward.
