5.0 almost joined us on an un-official BD

  • QIC: Zima and Trucker
  • When: 03/21/15
  • Pax: Zima, Trucker, McGrufe, Change Order, Geicko, Jiffy (FNG), Badger, Lug Nut, Spitz, Crash, Photobomb, Ceranno
  • Posted In: Alcatraz

As YHC pulls into Runde Park parking lot, I notice the lights are all on and there is a Tega Cay 5.0 standing talking to the PAX. I think what did we do wrong already?? Did a PAX pass out in anticipation to the un-official BD that we have been tweeting about the night before? Side note, enjoyed the trash talking with WEP and IL, it’s all about encouraging the PAX to get out and post and grow as a leader with #accountability!

So the PAX almost had the 5.0 post with his 20 lb equipment, but he choose to watch. All week YHC trying to come up with something new for Alcatraz as the other Q was DM’ing about his vision of pain. So the thang started like this:

COP with typical SSH, IW, Merkins, Squats and Windmill. PAx took off for a fast mossy (yes YHC forced the PAX to run a little faster) around the Tega Cay firestation up to the track next to a…..pull up bar!! Oh the PAX began to cry as they realized what was about to begin.

PAX split into 2 groups. Group 1 ran to the playground: each PAX did 5 pull-ups (yes a Trucker Tradition), as each one took a turn, the PAX did continuous Burpees until each one did 5 pull-ups. Group 2 stayed at the pull-up bar on the trail and did the same thing. Once completed the groups ran to the other station and repeated. Groups ran back to starting station and repeated sequence 3 more times with:
Squats/5 Pull-ups
LBC/5 pull-ups
Merkins/5 pull-ups

Mossy to retaining wall for 20 dips and 10 step-ups per leg, rinse and repeat. YHC thought he had enough time to do Dora 1-2-3, but the pull-up relay exhausted the PAX.

Hand off to Zima…
Short mosey to “The Hill” behind Alcatraz. Run all the way to the base and begin series of 1 exercise and then run hill, run in a circle at the bottom of the hill until 6 is in (Thanks Senator T).
SSH X 30 : Run Hill and Back
Hillbillies (IW but use same arm/leg) : X8 and a car broke the Pax into a Run Hill and Back
Mountain Climbers X 20 : Run Hill and Back
Peter Parkers X20 : Run the Hill and then Mosey to the Parking Lot

Jack Webb Family Tree: Series of Jack Webb related exercises to induce sweat and pain.

1. Ascending Cone Crawl (Jack’s Promiscuous Cousin) : Bear Crawls to each cone laid out across the parking lot and complete 1 CDD at first cone, 2 at second cone and so on until you’ve traversed the parking lot and back with 10 completed CDD, Bear Crawling the whole way.
2. Dan Taylors (Jack’s other Cousin) : 1 Squat / 4 Jumping Lunge Count up to 10/40 (Crowd Pleaser)
3. Jack Webb (The Man): 1 Merkin / 4 Overhead Count up to 10/40

Trucker’s moleskin
Late Friday night, word spread that the clown car to Hartsville was cancelled. Let the Tweets begin! Enjoyed stirring the pot in making sure all PAX not doing the P200 would not Fartsack and go somewhere! Zima and YHC were planning this all week hoping we developed something hard but fun. It’s always a blast to Q and try to be creative and make everyone sweat. Enjoyed the mumblechatter when we stopped at the pull-up bar. Always a PAX favorite!

Zima’s Moleskin
After Truckers pull-up festival I was seriously re-thinking some adjustments. I’ve been told if you can’t do it, don’t Q it. My goal for the morning was if I can “barely” Q it, I should probably do it. Such was the case. With Alcatraz all lit up, I was yearning for the gloom I’m so accustomed to. So we made a jailbreak ala Clint Eastwood and headed for the “Hill”. Lots of mumblechatter going down the hill, not much after that. My weak attempt at cadence on Hillbillies was evident, but a car coming down the street saved me and we broke into a sprint up the hill. It’s amazing with so many educated PAX that they still can’t manage to run in a circle. We’ll work on that later but oxygen deprivation may have played a part. I really enjoyed introducing the Pax to Jack’s extended family. It will probably be awhile before I attempt that trio again. The clock hit 7:30 AM right on the JW 40 clap. An end to a delightful Q. Always and honor and looking forward to the next. Aye!

Prayers to P200 PAX – everyone enjoyed the Tweets from those PAX. Prayers to Flat Tire and M on cancer treatment.

Strange Looks in Downtown Asheville

  • QIC: Old Bay
  • When: 03/21/15
  • Pax: Grid Lock, FNG (Mark), Old Bay
  • Posted In: Uncategorized

 

Three pax descended on a small but feature-rich park in downtown Asheville for a remote workout.  @F3Asheville had requested that we run recon on TC Roberson High School, but the logistics of posting this morning required it to be within walking distances of our Asheville business trip accommodations.  A drive-by recon trip to TC Roberson High School took place this afternoon, with details emailed directly to F3Asheville.

This downtown AO (Pack Square Part) seems to be perfectly for a small workout group (say 10-15), or larger groups if used as a launching point for running workout around town.  Grid Lock observed that the grassy areas of the park might be torn up quickly with a large group.

The workout this morning drew curious stares from onlookers, including city workers in a truck that made several slow drive-bys from all sides of the park to investigate the COP and People Chair with “arms up”.  But the pax, in F3 their gear, kept the ruckus down and focused on the pain.

The Thang:

Circle up for static warm-up
  • SSH x25
  • IW x25
  • Windmills x20
  • Merkins x20
  • Peter Parkers x20
  • CDD x20
  • Low, slow squats x25
Dynamic Warm-up (around park)
  • right shuffle
  • regular run
  • left shuffle
  • run backwards
  • high knees
  • regular run
  • butt kickers
  • regular run

Jacob’s Ladder to 10 from bottom to top of part – merkins and squats

Mosey to wall for people’s chairs
Lt. Dans across front of amphitheater
People’s chair again

Mosey to grass for Jack Webs to 10 (1:4 ratio)

Blimps – split between two stations across grassy area.  Bunny hops one direction and bear crawls the other.
  •  5 burpees
  • 10 lunge each leg
  • 15 imperial walker
  • 20 merkins
  • 25 plank jacks
  • 30 squats
Mary up on the amphitheater platform (for all of downtown to see)
  • LBC x25
  • Flutter kicks x20
  • Freddie Mercury’s x20
  • Russian Twists x20
COT
Grid Lock and YHC decided to save the naming of FNG Mark for a workout with more pax (that don’t know him as well as we do).

  • Pax: Red Banjo, Monty, Double D, Dark Helmet, Grand Strand, Maximus, Acme, Magnum (respect), MacGyver, Greenwave, Longshanks, Solid State (photographer)
  • Posted In: The Fort

Pulled up to The Fort this morning (WEP) and noticed a 5k was being setup.  Panicked for about 5 seconds then realized I would make whatever was on the Weinke work.  Luckily, the PAX knows where to park on race day as it is officially race season at WEP.  About one race every 3 weeks.  That being said, 11 of The Fort’s Finest, plus Photographer Solid State (pics for Newsletter), showed up to be sharpened by YHC.  Disclaimer noted, and off we go.

The Thang:

Mosey from WEP over to the bottom parking lot of the springs building by the F3 statue.

IW x 12, SSH x 12 (Maxiums notices theme, stops smiling, and stops all mumblechatter) Windmills x 12

First round of Dirty McDuece involves 4 rounds of 3 exercises all done to 12 IC, after each round of 3 exercises the PAX will run to the top of the hill and back down then hold plank until the 6 is in.

Merkins, Peter-Parker-Peter, Squat, Run. CDD, Mountain Climbers, Sumo Squat, Run.  Moroccan Night Club, Dying cockroach, Narrow Squat, Run. Wide-arm Merkins, Rosalita, People’s Chair, Run.

Left the lower Springs Parking lot and Mosey back to WEP to the light up sign. Plank till the Six is in.  Bear crawl to the playground for explanation on Dirty Mcduece #2.  The OYO version.  4 more rounds of 3 exercises all done to 12 OYO then run to the far hill, bear crawl up then run back to the playground. After each round is complete LBC’s until the 6 is in.  The 4 rounds:

Pullups, LBC’s, Bombjacks, run.  Dips, Plankjacks, Burpees, Run.  Hand release merkins, Gravediggers Right, right,left both jump squats, run.  Diamond Derkins, Gravedigger left, Monkey Humpers, Run.

Mosey over to the drillbits for McDuece #3.  at the next 4 drillbits do 12 merkins, 12 squats, 12 flutter kicks.  Run to next drillbit, rinse and repeat until you have done all 4. Ending at the bottom of the stairway to heaven.

Stairway to heaven up 6 lightpoles. 1 burpee, then 2 burpees all the way to 6.  After 6 run to playground and do 12 pullups.  Rinse and repeat.

Finish with 2 minutes of Mary – 12 hello dolly, 12 LBC, 12 Freddy Mercury

Jailbreak to the Shovel Flag for COT and BOM.

Announcements – read the weekly email.  lots of useful information.  Bring your CAH stuff in.  Quick check to see who is close to 20 on their workouts.

Prayers – Maximus and F3 Mission trip.  Maximus’s friend whose dad passed away last night. Safe travels for him as he travels.  Prayers for our brothers doing the Palmetto 200.  Hoping for safe and injury free returns.

Moleskin – Always and honor to lead this fine group of men that we have in the Fort.  Was nice to finally lead something other than the Armory or Slowburn.  Hope the PAX that showed up are smoked and can sit around and watch basketball all day.  Very Little mumblechatter other than Red Banjo complaining about not being dressed correctly.  It’s 50 out and he has on long pants and about 8 winter jackets.  YHC works with his wife, maybe she can work on his wardrobe.  While doing stairway to heaven, noticed porta-johns for the 5k being held.  Didn’t notice if any one splashed Merlot in there or not.  Maybe and opportunity for a different kind of Dirty McDuece!!

While many PAX were preparing to suffer the P200 Columbia to Charleston Run, YHC brought out some old favorites today including some new favorites that I am sure will be shared in future SlowBurn Workouts. Since many took a vaction day to run P200 I thought we would create our own vacation day at Slow Burn and actually do a moderate workout and after a little mumblechatter on the twittersphere, YHC was trying to get the PAX to go to the Swamp but the PAX are relentless and apparently like to #embracethemoderatesuck.

A little game of WWL says

  • QIC: WWL

  • Pax: Dark Helmet, Chicken Hawk, Decibel, Trucker, Gears, Solid State, Cheddar, Hasslehoff, Old Bay, CSPAN, Gecko, Serrono, Spiderman, Wheelz, McGuyver
  • Posted In: The Ranch

16 PAX took advantage of a perfect gloom to sharpen one another.

The Thang:

Warm up lap around complex, sounded like the first tour of the entire perimeter in a long time, end at soccer field out front.

 

Line up at the end for some dynamic warm-up: karaoke, side shuffle, high knees, butt kicks, toy solders, power skips

COP- SSH, IW, squat, merkin, squat-merkin

Line up at the end for Luck 11’s, first round merkins/squats, that is 10 merkins, run to other end, 1 squat, run back, 9 merkins, run, 2 squats, so on and so forth until 10 squats, 1 merkin.

Repeat with macktarjyve/LBS

Jack Webb (1 merkin/2 should press)

Game of WWL says, kinda like Simon says, but only better, “I win” a series of:

  • on your stomach
  • on your right side
  • on your left side
  • on your feet

which the PAX just started calling them burpees at the end…… I didn’t get it.

Quick ab lab.

Full out 50 yard sprint.

COT

Moleskin:

This was the last workout before the pax takes on P200 tomorrow morning, we have 3 teams (12 man, 9 man, 9 man, over 30 pax). Great encouragement throughout the workout.

We were reminded of God’s influence and asked for safe travels for the pax, M’s and loved ones.

REMINDER- BRR2015 teams forming now, you do not want to miss this, even CSPAN is on a team!

Until next time.

The Double USMC Drill Instructor Workout attacks #TheCoopF3

  • QIC: CSPAN & Gunny
  • When: 03/18/15
  • Pax: 1-Niner, Assassin, Boy Band, Cerrano, Chaser, Cheddah, Chicken Hawk, CSPAN, Gears, Grand Strand, Gunny, Honeybee, Huckleberry, Lil E, & MacGyver
  • Posted In: Ring of Fire

CSPAN on Q

Disclaimer and welcome (Legal Department approved message – thanks Chaser)

This was our friend Tatanka’s Q slot, but since he started his new career on Monday in sunny Florida, he wanted me to tell everyone “hello”, and that he is looking forward to getting back out with us. He is feeling better and should be in Fort Mill next week.

The Marines use a 2 Drill Instructor system to increase the intensity of physical training during recruit boot camp. Think of it as a combination punch, the first punch allows you to think the second punch won’t knock you down, which is always wrong …no matter your fitness level. This morning 15 souls foolishly (except 1-Niner who likes abuse) found out what getting “hit in the face with the squad bay door” feels like (direct boot camp quote from my SGT Washington).

Short mosey dodging a bus and an unusual amount of assorted cars dropping kids off

Stop#1 “The Grinder”

SSH, IW, Squats, Windmills, couple of others…

Long plank series…Honeybee will not forget his gloves again…

Long down and back series of forward/backward running

Bear Crawl / Lunge

Backwards Bear / Backwards Lunge

More running

Stop #2 “Shoulders”

OYO 2 sets of max – pull-ups, Americans, & Dry-Docks

MacGyver did a nice final set with a boisterous PAX full of encouragement

Stop #3

Weird sequence of Bear Crawl / Crab Walk / BTW Walk

People’s Chair on single leg #recoverytime

Gunny on Q

This is where you see why the 2 DI system challenges you, about the time you believe the workout is getting easy, here comes a punch in the gut.

Stop# 4 “I think I might get sick?”

Gunny described this as “getting your heart rate up”

5 cycles of American sequence on bottom of the hill (insert “mucho chesto” here), run up 1/8 mile hill, 10 Burpees, run back down 1/8 mile hill…(hence this turned out to be a crowd pleaser…and yes, your heart rate “got up”). Gears departed on an #ElvisEmergency, I believe Gunny thinks of this as a mission accomplished signal, but barfing would have signaled he got the cardio selection right.

AB sequence waiting for 6 to arrive

Stop #5 “Gunny must think this goes until 0630”

4 cycles of Backwards Bear (short hill) / 10 Burpees / Pull-up bar sequence of “boots to bar”

Run back to the bottom of the hill

Long backwards run followed by a “jail break” to COT = Chicken Hawk is ridiculously fast

I was proud of every man getting through that workout, as it felt like Chasers Black Diamond #memories #Ialmostpuked

COT

Prayer & Praise, BOM, and a some post fellowship

Kettlebell Burpees… Yeah… that’s a thing… at the Armory

  • QIC: Dark Helmet
  • When: 03/16/15
  • Pax: Spiderman, Longshanks, Stang, Deacon, Assassin, Huckleberry, GrandStrand, Gridlock, Green Wave, Boy Band, Lugnut, The Librarian, Cheddah, Uncle Cracker, Whitesnake, Destiny, Gears, and myself (Dark Helmet)
  • Posted In: The Armory, The Fort

So, it was my VQ, and I was a little hopped up on what I am dubbing “Qdrenaline”. (I am proposing that be added to the Lexicon, and I will write the full definition at the end of the post)

There were 18 men including YHC which showed up to be worked over for our weekly Kettlebell Beatdown at The Armory. I started by asking everyone to raise their right arm as high as they could. Everyone complied. Then I asked them to raise it two inches higher. Again, all complied. The question was, “So, why didn’t you raise it that high when I said to raise it as high as you could the first time?” So why don’t we give it all right out of the gate? Why do we hold back? The only things that keep us from doing that, and being OnePercenters, is the BS stories we tell ourselves… With that in mind, this workout was designed for each PAX to compete against himself. To push himself to make himself more of a HIM. To walk closer to “OnePercenter-dom”. And so… the Thang:

Warm Up (COP):
SSH x 20 (in cadence)
Merkin x 15 (in cadence)
WM x 20 (in cadence)
Squat x 20 (in cadence)

All exercises OYO at the following stations (RINSE AND REPEAT x 2):
1. Lap run station – man running the lap is the timer for those at the stations
2. Kettlebell Swings
3. Upright Rows
4. Kettlebell Merkin
5. Halo around body
6. Goblet Squats
7. Chest press
8. Triceps curls
9. Halo around body with a hi 5
10. Shoulder presses
11. Kettlebell Walker
12. Squat/upright row
13. Bridge Press
14. Halo around head
15. Arms out
16. Bicep curls
17. Dead lifts
18. Kettlebell burpee

After 2 rounds of that and limited #mumblechatter, it was time to cool down and wrap up:
LBCs x 20 (in cadence)c
Flutter kicks x 20 (in cadence)
Hello Dolly x 20 (in cadence)
Merkins x 15 (in cadence)

(COT/Name-o-Rama)

So, it was a very interesting and different perspective being on this side of the workout. I have a ton more respect for the men who give up their time and energy to lead us. Don’t be a taker only. F3 can’t grow without you leading, but WAY more important than that, YOU can’t grow without you leading. AYE!

Oh yeah… so “Qdrenaline = the giant adrenaline rush that a PAX experiences the night before (and during) his VQ. Often results in inability to sleep as well as in dreams about the Post. (such as YHC’s dream about the PAX running around like wild High Schoolers and not listening at all to the instructions)
