5 @ golden-corral for a rocking good time. We started with a lap around the parking lot and stopped for a few warm-up exercises.
Next, we each picked a stone and performed the following exercises in cadence: Curls, shoulder press, and bend over rows. Short lap around the parking lot.
Next, Dora with stone, 100 shoulder press, 200 squats, 300 chest presses.
We ended with a man-maker accumulator. Man-Maker at parking space line, +1 at each addition line. Partner 1 did MM, while Partner 2 ran, switch out.

Make a loose formation and mosey to the HT lot near the brick landscaping wall on the left side of the lot. The Pax stopped 4 times and did 5 burpees at each stop on the way to the wall.

At the wall, we did 11’s. Decline merkins and dips OYO (crowd pleaser).

Mosey about 20 yards from the wall and plank it up facing the wall. Hold plank/6″/elbow plank while the Pax, one by one, ran to the wall, did 3 box jumps or step-ups, and ran back.

Mosey to a section of striped lot across two rows and side shuffle along the striped rows in a zipper fashion for 6-7 rows. At the end of each row, do a burpee. Al Gore for the 6. Rinse and repeat back to the start, substituting bomb jacks.

Mosey to the small grassy area next to the landscaping wall for a traditional Jack Webb (1:4, merkins and overhead claps to 10)

Whew – summer’s coming. There’s much more sweat today than in the past few weeks. We hit the shoulders hard today with the 11’s and Jack Webb’s. I think those will be felt tonight. Great to see <@U07TVBVVC3X> today and looking forward to his V-Q next week at GC. Everyone put out a great effort today, and it’s always a pleasure to lead the Pax at <#C02PFBMMZL6> – one of my favorite AO’s of The Fort! Thanks again for the Q-spot <@U01CGBKBQ64>

Chasing Pots of Gold-en Corral

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.

Grunge isn’t classic rock

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…
