Chasing Pots of Gold-en Corral

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Brief but we managed a few Moroccan Night Clubs, Shoulder Taps, Boxcuttahs
THE THANG: Mozy to the church where there was a cone in each parking lane. Pax ran the length of one lane and back the other in a U shape to complete the exercise at the cone. We ran back and forth like we were following the rainbow looking for gold. I know it’s a stretch, but it is almost St. Patty’s Day. Pax completed 100 reps at the first cone, 90 at the second with each trip decreasing by 10 reps. From 100 down, exercises were SSH, LBCs, Squats, Mountain Climbers, Plank Jacks, Dips, CDDs, American Hammers, Merkins, Burpees.
Pax then faces each other in the plank position for 4 plank jacks, 4 mountain climbers, 4 shoulder taps, 4 Superman’s. Once completed, we repeated it at 8, 16 and 32 reps.
Mozy through COT to drop off the cones then stopped at the side of HT for wall sits and burpees.
MARY: No Mary, or Patty either
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Newsletter, Jaeger, convergence.
COT: Family

DORA Rules at GC

Leave a comment

YHC was honored to be given the Q stick at Golden Corral by Half Shell today. This represented my first trip back in the gloom at 100% since dealing with a post D2D bronchitis and my spirits were excited about the opportunity. While not yet Springlike weather, the Pax were quickly sweaty from the downpainment on the day.

After seeing a post by IJ, I decided to maximize the DORA concept at GC today for encouragement, challenge and candor of a partner workout.

WARMUP:
Mosey to Oil and Lube shop
Windmills x 10
IW x 10
MNC x 10
Monkey Humpers x 10
Mtn Climbers x 10
SSH x 10

Let’s go!
THE THANG:

Partner up and run around HT for Group Dora stopping 5 times for:
5 burpees
10 lunges
15 Box cutters

Mosey to another lot for Lazy Dora
Alternating turns
100 Merkins/ partner plank
200 Squats/partner Al Gore
300 LBCs/ partner 6 inches

Mosey to Walgreens lot for normal Dora
50 Bombjacks
100 CDDs

Grunge isn’t classic rock

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Did some side straddle hops, imperial walkers, hillbilly walkers and Moroccan nightclubs and then mosey over to the church lot

THE THANG: Tabata 40 seconds on with 20 seconds off. Got through about 2.5 revolutions. Topic of discussion was “is classic rock its own genre of rack from the 70’s/early 80’s, or is it anything more than 20 years ago?” Apple voted the latter and included Plush by STP on the classic rock workout playlist. I vote the former however…

Exercises included: LBC, Merkins, Squats, Mountain Climbers, Donkey Kicks, Dips, Side Straddle Hops, Nolan Ryan’s, Bix Cutter, Plank Jack, Lunges, Dry Docks, Bobby Hurleys and American Hammer

MARY: 2-3 minutes of rotational Mary once back to Harris Teeter…

Sterilization

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey to the backside of HT to enjoy the smells and do some warmup exercises – SSH, windmill, imperial walkers, hillbilly walkers, cherry pickers, Moroccan nightclub, merkins.
THE THANG: Mosey back to front parking lot. 7 of diamonds but with 3 corners instead of 4 so 7 of triangles? First lap was 7 merkins at each corner, 14 squats at each corner, 21 flutters at each corner, and then 28 LBCs at each corner. Mosey to side of HT for wall squats with bear crawls and crawl bears while we all mentioned a goal, word, or area we were working on this year. Mosey to auto shop and then dora – 50 step ups (each leg), 100 inclined merkins, 125 dips and then mosey back to flag.
MARY: American hammers, hello dolly, and some frog workout which felt like gas pumpers.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Pints and padres tonight, wine dinner, and mens shelter later this week, upcoming convergence and jaeger in march.
COT: A few prayer requests. Ended in prayer.

Blimps at the GC

Leave a comment

Short disclaimer then jog around back of center for warm-ups. Normal stuff: SSHs, imperial Walker’s, low slow squats, merkins, Peter Parkers, Parker Peter’s, and MNCs. Mosey to back hill for accumulating BLIMPS. 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walker’s, 20 Merkins, 25 Plank Jack’s, and 30 Squats. Start at bottom with 5 burpees, run to firestation for 10 donkey kicks, run back to start. 5 burpees, 10 lunges, run to station for 10 donkey kicks, run back to start. Repeat adding letter each round. Pollo had to duck out due to asthma flair up but it took us a while to find him. So good lesson to always pay attention to all PAX. After we got that squared away back to blimps. I think we figured out how to count the imperial Walker’s by the 5th round. Finished up back at fountain so we bear crawled one loop around it. Jog back toward cars stopping at other traffic circle. Partner up for 20 partner merkins with hand slap in-between then 20 partner big boys with hand slap at top. Jog back to cars for a few rounds of Mary, except somehow Autobobn thinks Merkins qualify as Mary. But all good, recover and COT. Lots of sickness going around and PAX coming back from being out. So prayers for health right now. Thx for the opportunity 1/2 shell!
