Uphill NURing and lots of webs

Leave a comment

We had 11 Bootcampers and 2 runners, quick disclaimer before getting into the warm up.

Mosey to fire station
20 SSH IC
10 Windmills IC
15 LSS IC
15 MNC IC

Mosey to pull-up bars and plank. Waterfall of 5 pull-ups, and then back down the waterfall.

Mosey to bottom of Tara Tea and partner up.
DORA
NUR uphill and run back while partner completes
50 – merkins
100- overhead claps
150 – LBCs
200 – flutters

Back to the baseball field for some core, legs and upper body webs:

CORE
Captain Thor, 1 big boy sit-up – 4 American hammers, run 10 yards; 2 BBSU – 8 AH, run 10 yards; 3 BBSU – 12 AH, run 10 yards… repeat until completion of 10 BBSU – 40 AH
Total: 55 BBSU and 220 AH

Take a lap around the field.

LEGS
1 squat – 4 calf raises, run 20 yards; 2 squats – 8 calf raises, run 20 yards; 3 squats – 12 calf raises, run 20 yards… repeat until completion of 10 squats – 40 calf raises.
Total: 55 squats – 220 calf raises

Take a lap around the field.

UPPER BODY
Lots of mumble chatter while explaining this one, no running in between series this time
1 merkin – 4 shoulder taps; 2 merkins – 8 shoulder taps; 3 merkins – 12 ST; took a brake after 5-20, then another brake after 7-28 and YHC had already lost count and whining came into the game so as a crowd pleaser we repeated 7-28… finished up with 10 merkins – 40 shoulder taps.
Total: 62 merkins – 248 shoulder taps

We had a couple of minutes to go back to COT with smoked shoulders and Badlands thought it was a good idea to keep doing merkins, add 10 IC to the count. 9 for YHC, apparently my watch was out of whack and alerted me it was 0730.

Great work by everyone.

Announcements:
9/11 WOD at NaFo on 9/5 starting at 0600, bring sandbags and rucks.

10 year anniversary festivities start officially on Wednesday with someone named Zima at the PAINtheon games.

Final countdown happening on 9/10

Prayers and praises were lifted.

Tinsel and Kermit out…

Snakes and Arrows

Leave a comment

A group of 7 met at FMHS for the last Laces In workout of August 2022. Here is what they did:

The Thang:

After a brief disclaimer around the shovel flag, we moseyed around the parking lot and ended up in the grassy field by the football stadium for COP

All in Cadence:

SSH x 25, windmill x 15, IW x 25, merkin x 10, LBC x 25, flutter x 25, hello dolly x 25, jumping lunge x 15, squat x 20, Moroccan nightclub x 40 while walking back to parking lot.

Line up at the lot next to a row of empty parking spaces. One by one, shuffle across the parking lot space line, do one burpee at the end of the line, advance to the next line, shuffle across, do one burpee at the end of the line, etc., continue through about 10 spaces. Rinse and repeat with bomb jacks.

Mosey back to the grassy field for modified Jack Webb. In place of merkins/overhead claps, we did V-ups and Freddie Mercuries (1:4 ratio). We did 5, took a short break and completed, 6, 7, an 8 before stopping. Man that was hard! Recover and mosey to the shed across the lot.

Assume People’s chair against the shed. Hold, and one by one, each guy does 3 burpees.

BTTW hold, while one by one down the line, each member of the Pax does a 10 count

Rinse and repeat above.

Line up for an Indian run across the lot to the entrance of parking lot (up/down the hill) and back to the shovel flag.

COT

I have been posting very intermittently lately due to a shoulder injury, and had not Q’d a workout since January of this year. I didn’t feel like I had my ‘A’ game out there today, but I felt I gave the guys their money’s worth. After 10 years, it’s still a blast to get together in the morning, Q a workout, and lead the fine men of F3. I’m looking forward to the next 10 years. Snakes and Arrows is another Rush reference. RIP Neil Peart

Respect Bday Q

Leave a comment

YHC was honored to Q minnow pond on my actual 50th (RESPECT) birthday. since the theme is 50, the route was a loop with 5 pain stations with 3 exercises of 10reps (to equal 50 reps per exercise and lap). Goal was 5 laps for the gazelles.

The stations were at Main/Tom Hall, Tom Hall/Withers, Withers/Confederate, Withers/Watson, and Railroad/Main.

Unfortunately I scheduled skin cancer surgery 2 days prior without thinking about the implications. Doctor requested I not exercise for 2 weeks but I couldn’t resist. Reason why I mention this is as a Public Service Announcement: use sun screen all year long and always reapply daily to avoid skin cancer.
