Frozen tundra mumblechatter

Leave a comment

WARMUP: An adventurous warmup of circle runs and

SSH
IW
Tunnel touches
Merkins
Mtn Climbers
Overhead claps

One man ran two circles around us wilst we completed the various exercises.

THE THANG: We moseyed to the center of the park and partnered up. One partner ran half sped across the park whilst the other partner counted to 5 and then chased them down, completing the run to the concrete track. Jogged back. Repeated until everyone was annoyed.

Moseyed to the hill where the partners participated in the now trademarked “Indian Land Butt Sniffers Bear Crawl Uphill” :tm:

Then lunges uphill.

At playground – partners did planks, dips and grave diggers whilst partner ran around the playground.

The Mary was one set of flutter kicks.

Perhaps <@UGU3XR5RP> will have some comments but it was clear this was his favorite workout in months.

Dear Abby joined! We got a Chicago report.

We had the privilege of COT to express prayers for fellow Pax and also for Mrs DD.

Food drive to come!

One lap is all it takes

Leave a comment

WARMUP: ssh, wind mills, imp walkers, plank, up and down dog, Peter Parker’s
THE THANG: we moseyed one lap around the large loop around the pond and LPL (counter clockwise) starting at cot. We stopped at every other street light and did some exercises

Along the first road ( through the row of restaurants, etc) we did 1 burpee, 2 bomb jacks, 3 big boys, 4 merkins and 5 squats

Along the second road towards the back of Kingsley, we did all the previous things, and added 6 side straddle hops.

We stopped along the way at the rip rap for a quick and painful interlude where we each grabbed a rock and carried it over our heads up to the LPL parking sign and back. We then continued our journey.

Along the next road, across the back of LPL, we did the previous 6 exercises at the designated street lights and added 7 monkey humpers.

Finally, along the road back to cot, we did these same 7 exercises, but doubled the rep count of each

We did one last set when we arrived back at cot and then we caught our breath, wiped the sweat from our brows and enjoyed the sunrise.

It is what it is!

Leave a comment

As is typical of YHC, I wanted to do some ladder work at the Ballroom to keep the Pax moving today so I researched old backblasts for ideas. While not original, I love reading the old backblasts to see the Pax, the mumblechatter and the work being done. I stumbled on a few good ideas from Fogerty and Cake Boss but settled on a Bonsai from 2022 that included over 700 reps which I thought was appropriate for our 1st sub 30 degree day this Fall.

WARMUP:
After a thorough disclaimer, we commenced to Indian Run to the track with the 6 doing 5 merkins and then sprinting to the lead.

We circled up in the track/football field parking lot for the following:

SSH x 30
Cherry Pickers x 10
Seal Jacks x 20
Windmills x 10
Plank Jacks x 20
IW x 15

We moseyed to find a gate that was open so that YHC could deploy the Weinke.

THE THANG:

Line up on the goal line
Run to the 10 yard line, do 1 burpee
Run to the 20 yard line, do 2 burpees
Ladder up then down to other goal line

Line up on the goal line
Run to the 10 yard line, do 5 merkins
Run to the 20 yard line, do 10 merkins
Ladder up then down to the other goal line Run

Line up on the goal line
Run to the 10 yard line, do 10 squats
Run to the 20 yard line, do 20 squats
Ladder up then down

Line up on the goal line
Run to the 10 yard line, do 10 flutters
Run to the 20 yard line, do 20 flutters
Ladder up to the 50 then pause
Bear crawl the remaining 50 yards

Mosey home

What costume are you wearing?

Leave a comment

We did a little warmup with the usual exercises. I proceeded to introduce the topic for thought. What costume are you wearing? Are you being an imposter?

Mosey over to the first stop for some 4 corners. 3 exercises then a lap around the parking lot. Kinda went like this merkins, mtn climbers, shoulder taps 10,15,20. Take a lap. Squats, monkey humpers, calve raises 10,15,20. Take a lap. LBCs, American hammers, flutters 10,15,20. Take a lap. Side straddle hops, over head claps,Moroccan night clubs 10,15,20. Take a lap. Mosey to the next spot behind Lowe’s. Rail work with dips, irkens, derkins with a bear crawl across lot. Headed to the wall for some sitting and merkins. Back to COT for the finale. Wrapped it up with we should be putting on the full armor of God and not covering ourselves up with costumes. Eph. 6:12-24
