Masters Party at Dawn Patrol

Leave a comment

A tradition unlike any other…The Masters. This time of year is one of my favorites. The weather starts to turn warmer. The trees and flowers start to bloom. People start coming outside of their homes. And the NCAA tournament concludes right into my favorite sporting event of the year, the Masters. With this in mind, I thought I would prepare a Weinke inspired by the tournament. I borrowed some of this from Warning Track and others via reviewing their backblasts.

Weather – chilly 39 degrees at launch

Disclaimer given during lots of mumblechatter

COP
SSH x 30 – this is the standard
IW x 10
Cherry Picker x 10
CDD x 10
Mtn climber x 10

Mosey to the “tee box”

In honor of the Masters, we played the front 9 holes revealing the name of each hole, the yardage and par. Pax chose the club necessary for the shots based on the following criteria:

  • Woods including Driver – 10 merkins
  • Long Irons – 10 jump squats
  • Short Irons – 10 Big Boys

When arriving on the green, Pax were given the following options:

  • 2 Putt – # of burpees for par
  • Birdie – no burpees but must answer a trivia question correctly
  • Bogey – penalty if a trivia question was missed which equated to twice the amount of burpees

#1 Tea Olive – 495 yards Par 4
#2 Pink Dogwood – 575 yards Par 5
#3 Flowering Peach – 350 yards Par 4
#4 Flowering Crab Apple – 240 yards Par 3
#5 Magnolia – 495 Yards Par 4
#6 Juniper – 180 Yards Par 3
#7 Pampas – 450 Yards Par 4
#8 Yellow Jasmine – 570 Yards Par 5
#9 Carolina Cherry – 460 Yards Par 4

Had to cut it short after 8 holes but the Pax were even par with 3 birdies, 3 bogeys and 3 pars.

WARMUP: produce pickers, windmills, imp walkers, plank/down and up dog stretching, Peter Parker’s, all in cadence
THE THANG: we moseyed to the back parking lot and started at the first island of the top row. We progressed up the row, stopping at each island to do a set of exercises and the moseyed to the next island. Once we reached the end of the row, we moved to the next row and made our way back

The exercises were called in an accumulator fashion. First island was Carolina dry docks

Second was ccd and merkins
Third was ccd, merkins, and adding big bois
Fourth added American hammers
Reaching the fifth island added flutters
The sixth added monkey humpers
And the seventh added jump squats

The rep count for the first pass through this garden of bliss was 5

The second row we did 10 of all of it

The third row we did 15 of everything

We didn’t quite finish row 3, but we got in the work

Once the mumble chatter hit that magical point where the complaints started to drip into the conversation, I shared that my first idea for this morning was way worse and consisted of basically spending the 45 mins bear crawling around the parking lot, and when you needed a rest, you could take that rest while you did LBCs. This would have been way less enjoyable, and thankfully we were all spared this terrible idea

MARY: we barely made it back to cot on time
