10 of Fort Mill’s finest gathered at TheYard in hopes of some sweat and fellowship without rain.  Temps were in the lower 50’s with an overcast sky.  Still doesn’t feel like winter, and not even late fall, really.  Guess it’s the fact that Christmas Season is supposed to be “full on” that makes us feel it should be colder and snowyer.

YHC ended up flying in hot because I had arrived early, but then returned home to get a forgotten piece of the workout gear that was required, as per the loosely outlined weinke.  Spoiler alert: it was a basketball.

Warm-up:

• Take a few steps back and do SSH until Wapner scrambled over from his car. (about 20 SSH’s)
• Mosey to a parking lot around back
• Imperial Walkers x10
• Low Slow Squats x10
• Wind Mills x10
• Seal Jacks x10
• Mountain Climber x10
• Right arm high, then flip over to dip position for Dips (x10)
• Left arm high, then flip over to plank for merkins (x10)

We then moseyed to the bottom of the hill entrance to the school and each pax was instructed to find a quarry rock.

The Thang:

• 10 squats with coupon, set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • hold 6 inches for 5 seconds
  • run back to rock and wait for the 6
• 10 squats, 10 curls, set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • hold 6 inches for 5 seconds
  • run back to rock and wait for the 6
• 10 squats, 10 curls, 10 overhead presses, set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • 10 merkins
  • run back to rock (must select a different rock – because Beacon had become too comfortable with the size of his rock) and wait for the 6
• 10 squats, 10 curls, 10 overhead presses, 10 tricep extensions , set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • 10 peter parkers
  • run back to rock (must select a different rock) and wait for the 6

• 10 overhead presses, 10 tricep extensions , set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • 10 of some other plank exercise I can’t remember
  • run back to rock (must select a different rock) and wait for the 6
• 10 tricep extensions , set rock down, then
  • run to the top of the hill and plank for the 6
  • 10 of some other plank exercise I can’t remember
  • run back to rock (must select a different rock) and wait for the 6

Rocks returned to the rock pile, and pax moseyed back to the main parking lot for BLIMPS accumulator.

Station 1: 2 Bombjacks
Station 2: 2 Lunges
Station 3: 2 Imperial Walkers
Station 4: 2 Merkins
Station 5: 2 Plank Jacks
Station 6: 2 Scorpion Dry Docks

At end of first round, plank up for the 6, then repeat all stations doing 4 reps at each (then 6, then 8 reps).

Mosey over to the basketball goal and count off by 2’s.  1’s form a line on left side of paint, 2’s on the right side of the paint.  Each person took a turn (alternating back and forth between the teams) blindly selecting an exercise card from the buck-o-pain, then attempting a foul shot.  If they made the shot, the other team had to do the exercise.  If they missed, the shooters team had to do the exercise.

We made it almost twice through everyone before we ran out of time.

It was great getting back to TheYard.  Very much appreciate the opportunity to Q for the loyal group of guys that post there.
