After it was announced that there was an FNG, I felt like I had to be a little more through on our disclaimers, especially with the Nations Leader there. So, disclaimers and 5 core principals were given to help the FNG out.
WARMUP: Mosey the long way around the parking lot. This started the grumbling, so I knew I was on the right path.
42- SSH (for my birthday number)
6-Windmills and then that was enough.
THE THANG: Run over to the bars and get a block.
With a partner- 42 seconds of pull-ups and walls sits with the block in your lap
21 Merkins and 21 Overhead Press
21 Curls and 21 Squats with Block
Rifle Carry the block from the bars to the stop sign and back to the street in front of the bars area
21 BigBoys with the block and an overhead press at the top of the sit up and
21 Chest press
We put the blocks to the side and then ran down the hill and around the left side of the school parking lot.
Regrouped and gave instructions for 11’s up the hill with Burpees and Squats as the exercise.
MARY: Put the blocks up

100’s

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Windmill
THE THANG:
It’s been said that a real man can do 100 burpees in 10 minutes so we put it to the test.

Thang 1
100 Burbees in 10 minutes .
A timer was set for 1 minute intervals with no rest in between. The goal was to do 10 burpees each minute. Rest period is if you finish 10 burpees in less than a minute. (Pro tip: if you a get 11 per minute you basically have a minute rest at the end).

We moseyed around to the basket ball courts.

Thang 2
We lined up at the base line for 100 LBCs. Then we ran to the far base line of the next court for the next exercise of 100 Squats. Run back to the 1st base line and plank up for the six. Next round: 100 flutter kicks (R + L =1), run to the far base line for 100 lunges (50 each leg). Run back to the 1st base line.

Thang 3
Starting at the base line, bear crawl forward 4 steps, then do 1 merkin, 1 plank jack, and 1 shoulder tap (R +L = 1). Repeat, adding 1 rep to each exercise each time—bear crawl forward 4 steps, then do 2 merkins, 2 plank jacks, and 2 shoulder taps. Continue until you reach 10 reps of each exercise or reach the opposite base line, whichever comes last.

We moseyed back to the flag
MARY:
We had about 1 minute left for American Hammers until time was up.

Announcements: Golf Tournament, 10/28. @Happy Hour has room for one more on their team. Also room for single and doubles. Also a need for raffles and prizes.

The Kickoff of the Funhouse Farewell Tour

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
I am certain we warmed up.

THE THANG:
It occurred to me as I sat to write this, that I have no idea (since it was a MONTH ago) what all we did that morning. I usually have a plan written out ahead that I either commit to memory, or will even shove a printout in my pocket to reference just in case. I didn’t do that this time. I know that I tried to call a few of the favorites of <@UGNDJBDU3> in his honor. I know we hit The Zipper and we definitely performed the Gonorrhea Burpee (because it has The Clap), but that’s all I really recall…

Now, the only person likely to read this is <@UGU3XR5RP>, but I just got painfully convicted about not writing Backblasts in a timely nor efficient manner. As I was looking back to see if I could find this weinke, I discovered that I have the BB from both my FNG post (administered by <@UN6U5PXNJ> and <@U08GGTLHL>) and from my VQ at The Armory.

<@U07QXBKKF5F> joined us as an FNG that morning. As it turns out, this came at a critical time in his life… and is hopefully blessing it. But, I failed him as a Q. He now does not have the enjoyment or blessing of being able to go back and read the report from his first post and reflect on that in the same way that I do. The first day I posted, I was sure I was going to die when Pusher said, “And now for the second half, I’ll hand this off to Jekyll”. I didn’t understand how the toughest workout I had ever done to that point in my adult life could have a SECOND HALF.

That’s a cherished memory. So, for Road Rash and every man after him, I commit to writing BackBlasts, making them interesting and timely, and hyping the reading of them after the fact. I also will attempt to persuade other men to do the same.

MARY: No chicks.
