Late Q, late backblast

Leave a comment

One of the worst feelings is rolling over and seeing the clock say 5:10 and you’re supposed to Q starting at 5. Quick decision that something was better than nothing, throw some clothes on and sprint out the door. Thankfully Divac had extra gear and put the PAX in motion. When YHC showed up we rucked around the front school loop stopping for some squats, merkins, curls and OH presses. The plan was 8 rounds of: 8 sandbag over the shoulders, 8 ruck pull throughs w/merkins, 8 curls, and 8 V-ups w/ruck OH. On odd rounds sprint to left fence then jog back. On even rounds OH carry to right fence then suitcase carry back. Due to YHC being late we didn’t get through all rounds. But times up back to COT. Thx Divac. Next time I won’t be late!

Just a little spritz

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Short yog around the campus ending up under one of the overhangs. PAX seemed happy to be out of the ‘spritz’.
THE THANG: Partner up and start with Lazy Dora. 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, 300 Squats.
>P1 does 10 Merkins while P2 holds plank then swap and continue swapping until 100 total.
>P1 does 20 LBCs while P2 holds 6″ leg hold then swap and continue swapping until 200 total.
>P1 does 25 squats while P2 holds Al Gore then swap and continue swapping until 300 total.
Light yog around bus loop to central overhang area.
Who’s the King? Every minute on the minute. Start with 1 burpee and 20 shoulder taps (L+R=1). Each minute add one burpee, same # of shoulder taps. Rest time is whatever time you have left in the 60 seconds. Keep going until you can’t get everything done in the 60 seconds. As Cyclops is fond of saying…this one escalated quickly. If you can’t complete the round then you’re out and you do 5 burpees and 20 SSHs. A few made it through round 8 but no one started 9.
Quick 10 count then move to back lot. 4 rounds of the following: 10 jump squats, 10 plank jacks, 10 bomb jacks, run a lap. Back to the overhang for some Mary: boxcutters, flutters, protractors, and LBCs. Recover, recover. Back to COT.
Great work by the PAX today. I appreciate everyone for coming out in the spritz.

COT:
YHC talked about topic on slack around disappointment and how it’s part of everyday because of the brokenness we live in. If we lived in Sky Qs intended paradise disappointment would not exist but because of The Fall, we live in disappointment. Question and challenge for each of us is how will we lead through it and rise above it and shine light into that disappointment. Be a leader and don’t swim in the missed opportunities but rejoice in moving forward.
Thank you Kaiser for the Q stick! Humbled and Grateful

Clyde in the dales

Leave a comment

WARMUP: nope, just counted off. Then I promptly forgot how many we had. Luckily Anchorman remembered we had Repeat and that he peeled off early. Q-fail. Will learn from that.
THE THANG: ran – https://strava.app.link/KeQquGKGmvb
MARY: nope, just a pigeon lunge
ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter
COT: had to be there, it was more meaningful

First time to Q at Clydesdales or any running AO. Not my forte, but we made it work. Not too many actually made the route I drew up work, but everyone was generous about not letting me know.

Deep Burn at The Stockade

Leave a comment

It was a cold November morning in the Fort, but there was an lingering anticipation of a deep burn to keep the PAX warm.

Warmups:

·  Side Straddle Hops
·  Windmill (Trucker Friendly)
·  Tappy Taps
·  Hillbilly Walkers
·  Donkey Kick (In Cadence)
·  Down/Up Dog
·  Let Stretch

Everyone was feeling warm and we were off.

The Thang:

We were all feeling lucky this morning, so the Q decided to invite a friendly game of blackjack into the mix.

·   1 Merkin & 20 Leg Lifts = 21 reps of a deep burn
·  Run to the other side of the HT parking lot
·  2 Merkins & 19 Leg Lifts = 21 reps of a deep burn
·  Run to the other side of the HT parking lot

You can see a patter forming. We worked our way down to 20 Merkins & 1 Leg Lift.

If my Zima math is correct we did 210 Mekins, 210 Leg Lifts, and ran across the parking lot 10 times….Carry the 1.

We moseyed over to a wall for what the holy grail of the Exicon calls “Descending Testicles”

Descending Testicles:

·   15 degrees on the wall and 10 Derkins
·  45 degrees on the wall with 10 Derkins
·   Ball to Wall with 10 Derkins

We added 30 American Hammers & 30 squats.

Mosey over to COT with 5 minutes left. Might as well throw some Bear Crawls with Carolina Dry Docs in.

We did a Jack Webb with 4 Bear Crawls & 1 CDD. We made it to 36 Bear Crawls and 9 CDD’s until time ran out.

Prayers for Slapshot’s Mother-In-Law, my friends Mother-In-Law that passed, and safe holiday travel.

STL Teams

Leave a comment

Chilly morning so mosey over to medical offices behind bank at top of Dave Gibson to warm-up. Break out into teams of 4 or 5.
Laps are up Dave Gibson, down 160 to Arby’s, right into Earthfare lot, right on road that returns to start.
Hills are down Dave Gibson up to GHES and then back to start.
As a team complete the following as efficiently as possible:
6 Laps, 6 Hills, 50 Burpees, 100 HR Merkins, 150 Bomb-Jacks, 200 Mtn Climbers.
Every PAX had to run one loop and one hill. From there it was up to the team to figure out how to divide and conquer.
The goal was to get through this the first time and then challenge the teams to figure out how to improve their plan in order to reduce their overall time. Probably due to poor communication on YHC part, we ran short on time to complete the second round. Teams completed as much as time allowed on second round and then returned to COT. This was Wipeout’s second work-out so we went over the 5 core principals and then a quick summary of the 3Fs.

Lots of 2nd F events in the newsletter. Get out and participate!
Thanks Badlands for the Q opportunity!
