THE THANG: Everyone was instructed pick up bricks out of the back of my car. PAX were instructed to hold onto those bricks for the entire workout.
1st Round – While lunge walking 10 yards PAX had to raise bricks out to the side with each lunge. Once we reached our 10 yard destination we performed 10 Bomb Jacks with bricks. Did this for 5 stations.
Round #2 – Jack Webb – 2 exercises with 1:4 ratio concluding at 10:40. Exercises were Merkins on bricks and Overhead Claps with bricks.
Round #3 – Same stations we used for the previous lunge walk were used to perform a Burpee Suicide ladder. Starting line – 1 burpee, run to first station 1 burpee, run back to starting line 1 burpee, run to 2nd station 2 burpees, back to starting line 1 burpee, so forth and so on, 5 staions.
Round #4 – Supermans with Bricks – Lay on your stomach, performed 10 sec holds in 4 different positions -Superman, Field Goal, Airplane, Ripcord. Once PAX had a good understanding of the positions we went through them again with a 7 second hold and no breaks in between positions.
Round #5 – Indian Run with Bricks 3 times around the parking lot. If you’ve never ran with bricks you are missing a real treat.
Round#6 – Same routine as the 1st round, but with backward lunges as travel mode and instructed to raise bricks straight ahead, at each station PAX were instructed to sit in the Al Gore position with bricks raised to the front and perform 10 pulses. JWOW’s form was noticeable!!!

Mr. Hugh Midity

I recently asked Badlands for a Q At Sweep The Leg. He gave me June 13th and I accepted the assignment forgetting that was the Monday after a week at the beach. Vacation is rough on the body. But all in all it turned out fairly well. Ran one of my fastest miles 7:42 pace that morning and it all went quickly  downhill from there. Noticed a fairly large gathering for my Q which was obvious since I’m a celebrity in F3. Noticeably missing was Bobber.

The Thang

Told everyone what the plan was at 5:14. Which was, run to Berkshire Heights meet at the stop sign. Go clockwise around Berkshire stopping at every stop sign and doing 5 Hand-release Merkins, 5 X and O, 5 Jump Squats. There are 6 stop signs all the way around and one big hill the last 1/4 mile. The next loop add 5 more reps to same exercises for 10 of each. Everyone got over 2 loops some pushed for 3. Finished with 3.35 miles the others got 4. Thanks Badlands for the Q I enjoyed hearing the complaining  from the Pax.
Last thing men. Let’s show the world what a real man looks like. Be kind to strangers even if they think differently than you. Hold the door for a lady as she exits the store. Open the car door for your wife. Go buy her womanly things without bitching about it. Say your kids prayers at night while tucking them in. Push the buggy back inside the grocery store. Love you guys more than you will ever know.

Prayers for Decibel son Noah and his recovery
