Recycling my VQ

I found my old VQ backblast and brought a little back.

It wasn’t as hard as I remember. Solid work was done by all. We had a string of pearls to get to the spot

3 cones in a line

5 HR merkins
5 burpees in the middle
5 jump squats
4 burpees in the middle
5 HR merkins
3 burpees in the middle
5 jump squats
2 burpees in the middle
5 HR merkins
1 burpee in the middle
5 jump squats

I modified it down a bit from my VQ. Probably made it too easy. I’ll fix that next time

Old school at the Fort

The Fort is where it all started…need I say more. For many of the Pax of the Fort, this was their first post and it set the tone their journey since that time. While the Fort has multiplied many times over since it inception in 2012, this AO stands as the cornerstone for the culture, fellowship and brotherhood for our region.

YHC was excited to be asked to Q and while I had to navigate some calendar issues, it was an opportunity not to be missed.

In preparation for the Q, it was an easy decision to reach out to my Shieldlock brother, DD, to co-Q with me. He and I had been traveling this week and a beat down with some fellowship was just what the doctor ordered to remedy that jet lag.

5 burpees
IW x 15
4 burpees

Cindy is missing!!!

Did a warmup near shovel flag as we anticipated the arrival of our fearless Q. SSH, windmills, shoulder taps, Imperial Walkers and Peter Parker’s. Decided we would take a mosey down to the next stop for a few other exercise’s. Was headed to see Cindy but she was kidnapped so we had to improvise with rocks instead. Tricep extensions, curls, overhead presses and squats. 3 rounds of 20. Anchorman put us on a DORA with merkins, big boys and squats. With a few minutes left Old Bay gave us a wall sit exercise to round things out. Back to COT for ab lab led by the pax. Shorty will get another chance to redeem himself in the next few weeks. Peace out.
