1 Q 2 Q 3Qs 4Qs at The Yard

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Bitcoin took us thru the disclaimer and a solid Warmup, complete with Imperial Walkers Hilly Billy Walkers, Wind Mills Cherry Pickers, which all began w a mosey.

The Thang:

Old bay grabbed the Q stick and walked us thru his maze of cones.  Some Pax paid attention and some Pax (well) not so much…
Old Bay
Zig-Zag Cone Course
– Line up for run through cone course by all (backwards run to start)
– Partner up (size not matter)
– Partner 1 does stationary exercise while partner 2 does moving exercises through the cone course
– Flapjack and then plank up until six is in
– Proceed to next round

1. LBCs –> lunges
2. American Hammer–>bunny hops
3. Peter Parkers –> karaoke
4. Flutters –> toy soliders
5. Hello Dollys –> backwards lunges
6. Low Plank –> butt kickers (2x)
Fogerty grabbed the Q and lead the Pax onto the Turf football field for a full 100yd ladder at every 10 yd markers.  Each pax added a rep up until mid field and then removed one rep until they reached the other goal line. Pax stated with 1 bombjax and 1 merkin at the 10yd line….2 of each at the 20, 3 of each at the 30yd line…Pax made their way back to the original goal line with same cadence but this time it was squats with overhead clap. Pax headed back to COT when Buddy ( Cousin Eddie son) took the Q stick and led the entire group back to COT w some butt kickers, Grapevine switching sides, Hops and finally a mosey to Circle up for 3 mins of Mary. Buddy did not relinquish the Q stick and led the pax in a round of Big Boys until time was called. Mumblechatter erupted around the 15th rep….but we were all better for it !! Nice job Buddy!!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: stuff the bus, HIM camp next weekend and a round of prayers / praises from every pax.
Bass took us out in prayer.

History of the Ballroom

Leave a comment

WARMUP: some stretching for a few of us New Balance wearers and then a wide variety of standard warm up fun

THE THANG: we reminisced about moderate pax and the beginning of the ballroom – started by Cakeboss and Change Order.

Wide Left, Culture Club, Dungaree, Manzel, Curious George and other names from the past were invoked…

We started at top of hill but stop sign w one Merkin. Ran down hill to bridge for one LBC. Then over bridge to the track to do one squat. Back to the top of hill for two merkins, then two lbc, two squats…etc to 7.

Back around other side of school for some dips and sermons (by request). A little Mary to finish.

Over two miles. Good mumble chatter.

Letting Go of Heavy Things

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Disclaimer, brief COP, Sen T rolls up late like he’s the special guest of the day
THE THANG:
Mosey to road behind school for 10 burpees at each of 5 light poles with various forms of lunge walks between each pole

mosey to picnic tables for some step ups, dips, derkins

mosey to football field

pax line up side to side and do Al Gore while one pax does weaving run through the line to the far end. continue this fashion for 100+ yards

rinse and repeat above with flutters in place of Al Gores

pick a partner and line up like WR vs DB. DB runs defensive route to keep pace with WR for about 10-20 yds. flapjack. rinse and repeat full length of field

100 yd bear crawl back to starting end zone

mosey back to parking lot for 10 burpees, then sprint home

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 8/4 convergence, 1st F Q transition, trash pickup

COT: It was great to be back with the pax after much travel over past 2+ months.

the past 3 days involved lifting heavy stuff (Cindy at the Bubble and sandbags at Stockade) so today was “no lift day”

besides the heavy weight in the Gloom for two days, I’ve been carrying heavy stuff on the workforce for 2 months. I’ve been missing the pax during this period and all the mental reminders and affirmation just isn’t enough to keep me in a clear headspace without the benefit of a push from the pax in the Gloom.

thanks to Bitcoin for the invite and thanks to the pax for posting and always filling my tank!
