When Double D asked me to take the Q, I noticed my palms began to sweat.  I know you’re thinking, Cornhole sweating that’s not surprising.  Anyway, I started thinking, when’s the last time I’ve Q’d or even been to WEP outside of Convergent type activities.  Question’s started forming like: Do they still work out in the grass?  Do they use the hill?  Where is the closet parking lot?  Where is this Stairway to Heaven they mentioning in the back blasts?  Is that near the gun shop?  Deep Breath! You’ve Q’d lots of workouts.  Relax.  Think. Think.

After revisiting the purpose of this AO is to relearn things forgotten and helping others I knew exactly what I would focus on.  As Q’s “YHC included here” we are always thinking of ways to push each other and usually focus our attention on challenging the fittest PAX that show up and secretly hoping that those less able chose another AO.  As a result, the six is left chasing the group, sometimes catching the group just in time for them to take off again.  Having spent and still spending a great deal of my beat downs as the six I know this doesn’t need to be the case.

The Thang,
Dynamic Warm up using paved path around park (Light Jogs, High Knees, Butt Kickers, Side Shuffles)  Stopping at Corners to perform 10 ea in cadence: SSH, Slow Squat, Mt Climbers, Lounger, Merkin.  Mosey to next corner with dynamic exercises.  By doing this Run, Stop, Exercise, Run again allows PAX to stay together, lots of mumble chatter and modification by those that need it.

After the first round had PAX perform the cadence counts.  Started with those that have never Q’d a workout.  Everyone did great.  There were some adjustments/heckling needed but that’s why we practice.  Look forward to attending one of your Q’s in the near future.

Mosey to Playground (Partner Up – Size does not matter)
P1 makes a lap around playground (When did they add on that other section?)
P2 Performs Exercise,
Flapjack 2x Pull-ups, LBC’s until all finished – Yes this includes you Dark Helmet
Then CDD, LBC’s until all finished
Russian Dips LBC’s until all finished
For some reason YHC kept forgetting to take the second lap appreciate Cha-Ching holding me accountable.

Discussed story from The Swamp a couple weeks ago and how our intentionality of posting to workouts, 2nd F’s and 3rd F’s is bringing awareness to others.  Shows that we are a group that takes action.  Disciplined to not let the elements, others judgments sway our actions.  Committed to holding ourselves and others accountable.

Mosey to COT.
Thanks Double D for reaching out and holding me accountable.  Was great to get back to Block Party.

Honored to lead and follow this morning.  This is a very lively group and will definitely be back to take part in one of your Q’s.
