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

Four Corners of Fun (Pain)

I was calling this Four Corners of Fun, but @libertybiberty called it Four Corners of Pain, so I guess there’s a thin line between fun and pain…LOL!!!

I gave a lousy disclaimer then we began the warm-o-rama. Note to self: Don’t take a Orange Theory class the day before you Q as I don’t remember what we did or maybe it was the mumbling chatter that was distracting me. Something about holding a member or a member hanging too low and the water level being too high. Whatever it was, I had to stay focused and keep us on task so we moseyed over the band practice field.

The Thang
In every corner of the field we performed the following exercises. Plank up for the six after each round.

Round 1 – 7 Burpees
Round 2 – 14 Merkins
Round 3 – 21 LBCs
Round 4 – 28 Squats
Round 5 – 21 American Hammers (count 1 side)
Round 6 – 14 Carolina Dry Docs
Round 7 – 7 Burpees

Moseyed back to COT for a Merlin Ring of Fire and some Mary.

Announcements:
– Several CSUPS once the month or two.
– Christmas party
– There were others; see the Newsletter
Prayers:
For those in Western Carolina that have been affected by the storm and those in the way of the next storm rolling through Florida.

Back to Massey

Nice cool breezy morning for a stroll through Massey. Great to be on the eastside as the expansion rolls on.

Time Machine got the watch alert for NO SCHOOL TODAY. Enjoy that!

Prayers for @clickbait and all who have been up there from the Pax and those who are going.

Prayers for the Florida area this week.

Prayers for a Pax wife who has a job interview this morning while also just having discovered that dreaded “lump” that we are hoping is nothing!

Culture Club Wins!

Played a classic game of Uno and <@UNKNC6XNZ> was the winner! No burpee penalties were issued! Great job.

Blue – Merkins / Curls
Green – LBC
Yellow – Squats / Goblet Squats
Red – lunges / Chest press

Skip – Run
+2 – pick 2 exercises, 2 reps
+4 – 4 reps all 4 exercise
Reverse – Repeat last exercise
Wild – Change color

<@U05RN7GSDLH> was doing his Site Q duties and looking for the next leader to pass the Shovel Flag :flag-us:on to. :pickup_truck:

<@U05K5D10AG6> and his canine friend were in full effect. Checking form and sniffing for clues. :dog2: :mantelpiece_clock:

<@U07QXBKKF5F> posted for only his third time but already looks like a pro! Good work! And happy birthday to his 2.0 (son) :partying_face:. Just keep posting.

<@UN6PTD007> brought all the deep dish pizza from Chicago he could find and was King of the workout. :pizza: :prince:

<@UNKNC6XNZ> was singing :microphone: Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? And my answer was yes, with all the lunges we did.

<@UST30T7FF> or… Ruby! Ruby! Ruby! (See Kaiser Chiefs) was always encouraging and probably the strongest man there. So much so that he left the workout on his own two feet. No car. :muscle:

<@U061P7HUFRR> was out selling insurance and running laps around guys half his age. :male-office-worker:

YHC was blessed to lead such a fine group of men who want to get 1% better today in their mind, heart and body.

My report is trueish and is open to interpretation.

The Thrill is gone. :v:
