The Yard – 3 Aug 2024

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We did.
THE THANG:

There was a lot of back and forth down the field and back with 6-inch holds and exercises and such. Threw in some burpees, and partner carries, and bear crawls. It’s all Julie Andrews and my favorite things… that’s for Band Camp…

Went up to the parking lot track and did some more exercises and loops on the track.

– JCruise took a dump on the 50-yard line and blamed it on the dog. Or maybe it was the other way around… I forget
– FunHouse died of dysentery on his way back across the expansive plains to his home, Oregon Trail style…
– Spider-Man changed into his (not present) shirt after the workout…
– Gears went sleeveless to show off his newly acquired Hawaiian tan…
– Maximus was glad we didn’t do 81 burpees to start our workout…
– Tapout (11) carried Headspin for 50 yards, thus reinforcing my statement about being grown f-ing men. But he promises to keep himself in check in front of his mom…
– Time Machine loves ducks. Like, it might be an unhealthy focus of his life…
– Drop Thrill knows how to keep a man humble…
– 3D (if you haven’t noticed) is accelerating whilst shedding his former self…
– Suplex agrees that we don’t use the word “whilst” nearly enough…
– Yoyo Ma was the War Daddy today. He won’t read this, so I can write whatever I want about him…
– Sprocket continues to fill out his rewards card. Just a few more punches and I think he gets one free workout. Or an ice cream cake or something like that…
– Ruby Slippers loved doing a 6-inch hold. I’ll just leave that there.

When truth pulls up next to you in its limo, rolls down the window and asks you if you have any Grey Poupon, you can pass it this report as a substitute.
no poop was actually created or discovered at the 50 or any other yard line.
no Poupon was actually created or discovered at the 50 either…

Subbing to the oldies

Leave a comment

WARMUP: no messing around and got right to business knowing mumblechatter would be strong. Mosey around parking lot and stopped for cherry pickers, windmills, low slow squat, merkins, imperial walkers.
THE THANG: went to the tire / oil change for some partner work.
Partner 1 AMRAP step ups while partner 2 ran around building. Did this 3x because why not.

Ran through the smell zone to the church for more partner work.

Partner 1 AMRAP decline merkins while partner 2 ran around the circle lot. Did this 2x with round 2 for urkins.

Ran down the street to the fountain for more partner work (and we changed partners at each station I forgot).

Partner 1 flutter while partner 2 NUR up the hill to the fire station (for backdraft) and then ran pack to partner 1. Did this 2x with round 2 being LBC.

Ran up to fire station for 2 min of burpees because…just because.

Back to COT for 3 min of Mary.
MARY: yes, she was done
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter and lots going on

The Greatest Workout of All Time? Yes.

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Probably. No one remembers.
THE THANG: A few rounds of 11s, 7s, and other nonsense.
The REAL nonsense, though, came in the form of setting things right in the naming department. Sadly, in only 45 minutes, I couldn’t get to everyone, but I will tell you the ones I DID get to…
– is now Kerrigan
– is now Insertion Point
– is now Father Time
– is now Mama’s Boy
– is now French Tip
– is now Tickle Me Ebenezer
– is now Agent My Pleasure
– is now Dumpster Juice
– is now Dumpster Juice II: The Revenge of Dumpster Juice
– is now Stateline Vapes
– is now Gender Confusion
– is now Backward Flush/Dude Wipes
– is now Dementia
– is now Halfway
– is now White Boots, and
– is now Twin Peaks

For more on WHY these Pax got new names, you’ll have to ask them, because I only vaguely remember…

This is why you shouldn’t miss when YHC is the Q. NOTHING but good times.

Blame JWOW

Leave a comment

Honestly I was expecting low attendance so I was pleasantly surprised when I start seeing several cars rolling into WEP. JWOW sent me note mid week asking if I’d be willing to bring the junkyards on Saturday so I had to oblige him. After a quick disclaimer the PAX performed some basic warm-ups. Then we moseyed down the path to the bottom of the big grass hill. Split into 3 groups. G1 ran to end of path back toward parking lot and did 10 bomb-jacks. Return to start. G2 nurred up the grass hill, did 10 squats, then returned to start. G3 ran to end of path in other direction, did 10 bomb-jacks, then return to start. Rotate so each group did each section once. Yog down to Harris St park for the fun. I was trying to find decent grass so I thought the outfield would be safe. Partner up. P1 does 8 Junkyard dogs while P2 is alternating between high and low plank. Then partner push to other side, P2 does the JYDs then partner push back. JYDs are P1 does burpee, then dives under P2 whose holding high plank, then when P1 stands up P2 goes into low plank and P1 jump over. Simple but stupid. The plan was for 3 sets of 8 but after much chatter we went 8 ,6, then 4. I thought this spot was decent but apparently Slow Jams found the one massive fire ant hill and got about 100 bites.
Yog over to base of Harris St. Next movement was run up Harris St stopping at every other power pole for 10 merkins, 10 squats, and 10 froggers (deconstructed burpees). The plan was to do some more group work at church on top of hill but we were a little tight on time so started back to park. 5 bomb-backs, 5 seal-jacks, and 5 plank jacks at every other power pole. Few mins left for 2 all you got sprints up small hills in park. It was a super humid day so I wasn’t the only PAX looking like a sweaty mess at the end. Apparently the JYDs got a zero star review afterwards and I got a nice text from Spiderman calling me an asshole for spiking his heart rate by running up Harris St. So it was a great morning. Thanks for everyone that posted and thanks to JWOW for giving me the nod.
