“You Ain’t Got No Legs”

  • QIC: Senator Tressell, Jekyll
  • When: 1/17/15
  • Pax: Zima, Funhouse, White Lightning, Pink Slip, Trucker, Smuggler, Gears, Mr. Clean, Change Order, Gecko, cornhole
  • Posted In: Alcatraz

Bakers Dozen today in the Gloom.  5 men showed off their manhood with EC in the form of running to Alcatraz this morning.  #smugglerspecial  @Zima wins the #virtualtrophy for putting in 2 miles on the front and the back end.  No doubt he’ll be asking his M for a partner carry the rest of the day.    We had a scare as the normally prompt/early/#10minutesearlyisontime Senator Tressel wheeled into the parking lot with 3 minutes to spare.  Apparently, he couldn’t find his gear, WOKE HIS M (not recommended) and made it to the #beatdown.  The Pax did not let this slide, prompting #mumblechatter in the form of “poor little kitten has lost his mittens”

Senator Tressel on the Q

Off to the gloom with a tour of the mean streets of TC.  Hills be damned.  Landing in a small cul de sac Senator Tressel began our COP.  Acknowledging our neighbors with a need to keep the noise down to a dull roar- a quiet cadence was installed.  This lead to a @funhouse mention of #sexycount referring to the almost “breathy” tones of our call.  A new addition to the lexicon is born.  Well done.

Merkins here, IW there, SSH, Cherry Pickers (@decibel special) and couple of confusing boat/canoe calls and we were sufficiently warmed up.  Back to campus for Progressive BTTW.  What is PBTTW you ask?  Balls to the wall mixed with protractor precision.  #madscientist  Walk up the wall and back down at 30, 60, 90 degrees. rinse repeat X3.  #smoker.

S.T. added in karaokes, bombjacks (none earned but we all deserved), wall sits and a few other punishments that I cant recall.  Will need therapy to drag it out.

Baton switch, Jekyll on Q

Couple of words on pushing through it, working hard, yada, yada, yada.

  • Jack Webbs 1:4 x10  usually good for some #chatter.  Most folks familiar so everyone knew what to expect
  • Lt Dan: 1:4 X10. “Punishing leg exercise that is a cousin (of sorts) to Jack Webb. Named after Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump, it combines 1 squat followed by 4 lunges (alternating legs) in ascending order (maintaining the 1:4 ratio). It will leave the PAX feeling like “they ain’t got no legs”.””
    • highly recommend mining the F3 exercises for a few Gems- you’ll come up with something like Lt. Dan.  #winner
  • Mac tar Jai plank jumps- lemme explain- split PAX in 2 groups- relay race/indian run concept
    • Plank shoulder to shoulder.  man on the end bunny hops over each PAX to end then planks. #kicker- while in plank do mac tar Jai.  Good exercise following Lt Dan  RINSE/REPEAT
  • Token ab excerises- LBC, Gravediggers.  Who needs abs right now?  #notsummer
  • Eleven’s.  Like 7’s only not. Donkey kicks and Jump Tucks  #smokeshow

COT

T’was a smoker of day.  Had a lot of fun out there.  The positive attitudes out there drive all of us. This is truly a unique and special thing we call F3.  Go out there and be better today than you were yesterday.

    LOL when I saw the cat pic – too funny. Yeah – I expect to hear something from the M today after the 6:15 wake up call. Failed to mention that the gloves and hat were just where I left them the night before! Good workout today, men! Always a pleasure.
