WARMUP: Some SSH, Windmills, Moroccan Night Clubs, Imperial Walkers & Hillbilly Walkers

THE THANG:

Mosey over to the side of Harris Teeter and use there giant wall for a little work. Everyone grabbed a seat against it and had a 10 count waterfall kick us off down the line. We followed this up by a plank series with our feet on the wall (parallel, 45 degrees & B2W) 10 count at each. It was all so much fun we did it again.

Mosey back to the parking lot and completed a round of solo DORA style work. 100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC. Run to the end of the lot and back whenever you were unable to continue or at least ever 1/4 of the set.

Once this was completed we continued to a board of pain for the final 10 minutes. Exercises were completed by all with a PAX in the center of the circle being the timer completing 10 man makers with a toss of the 30lb sandbag over the shoulder each time. We got through:

-Donkey Kicks
-Mountain Climbers
-SSH
-Flutter
-Plank Jack
-High Knees
-Lunges

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Attend the Cannoli Run or answer to Twister…

Jersey Yikes at The Stockade

Leave a comment

WARMUP: A few SSH then we just jumped into it.

THE THANG: Two lines facing each other in the plank position.  4 plank jacks, 4 mountain climbers, 4 shoulder taps, 4 Supermans.  4 plank walks to the side then repeat with 8 reps for each exercise.  4 plank walks and 16 reps each.  4 more plank walks and 32 reps each.   The fun really began at 16.

After this we did some partner leap frogs with partner 1 lunge walking to the first of eight cones.  Partner 2 does 10 merkins then jogs to the first cone.  Flip flop (or leap frog) until reaching the last cone.  Rinse and repeat back to the first cone but swap out lunge walks for bear crawls.

Mosey to Jersey Mikes for a #7 Turkey and provolone with honey mustard Dora.  All totaled, that sandwich is ~540 calories.  With partners we did 540 reps of 7 exercises.  One partner did a lap around Jersey Mikes and Walgreens while the other did the reps.  Switch when partner returns from the run. Reps were: 100 squats, 100 LBCs, 100 plank jacks, 100 CDD, 100 curb dips.  We closed it out with each partner doing 20 American Hammers and 20 burpees.

Mosey back to the cones for one more partner leap frog.  Due to pax demand, merkins were swapped out for squats.  

Mosey to COT

MARY:  she wasn’t present but her shoulders would have felt great after the workout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Jaeger, newsletter

Wheel of Gloom!!!

Leave a comment

It was a little rainy but a lot windy for the Stockade debut of the Wheel of Gloom.

For those unfamiliar the wheel of gloom is each Pax taking turns spinning the Wheel. Each spot on the wheel denotes a workout with reps. Each rep is one point for the spinner… but all Pax do the exercises.

Exercises included burpees, Merkins, jump squats, LBCs, Freddy Mercury’s, Big Boys, among others.

The lighting round was a wheel of fortune type routine with correct letters earning points and wrong guesses resulting in LBCS.

Masterpiece solved the puzzle and racked up some big points.

Final round was a 1:00 minute Diamond Merkin Off between Masterpiece and Grassy Knoll.

Grassy won the final round and was given the chance to take a 4-pack of delicious White Claw OR choose what was in the box. Thankfully he chose the box and got a nice variety pack courtesy of Slapshots beer fridge. Masterpiece ended up with the Whiteclaw.

The point today was a decent workout with great fellowship. Thankful for those who showed. It was a fun time!

Until next time!
