Honey Badger – Q School 101

Leave a comment

Following the Honey Badger First Monday of the Month 7 minutes of burpees we moved to a lighted area near the gate to the football field. There was a supposed to be a 601 group peel off, but Slap Shot likely needed a minute after taking the record for the most burpees in 7 minutes.

WARMUP:
Started with some explanation to the men of the components of a workout and the purpose/importance of each. Disclaimer, Warm-up, The Thang, Mary, COT. Given that we had AKA in attendance there were a number of PAX participating that taught YHC how to Q. This provided a unique opportunity to identify three PAX in attendance that either had never Q’d or had Q’d less than 5 times. I catered a lot of my message to them and some to all in attendance.
• SSH x25
• Windmill x10
• Imperial Walker x10
• Diamond Merkin x10 (at this point I mentioned the importance of good form in leading. If your form is poor, then your leadership is poor. A number of PAX tend to cheat the exercise, count fast, and get ahead of the PAX they are trying to lead.)

THE THANG:
Mosey past the pull-up bars to the bottom of the hill. The point of this part of the lesson was planning. When planning a Q, Google Maps is a great tool as you will you see things that you may not have seen in the gloom before. The hill behind me was a great example. Every PAX in attendance has run that hill at some point, but they may not have noticed the equally spaced trees moving up the hill. These can be used as a markers as part of a workout. YHC have Q’d this workout previously, but it offered a nice example of how to use an AO and that creativity does not need complexity to offer a solid challenge. It also highlighted that setting up a workout that allows PAX of different speeds and fitness levels to challenge themselves together is always a good idea.

Round 1:
• Bear crawl to the first tree 1 Spider-Man Merkin (Merkin while bringing right knee to the right elbow and then repeated on the other side)
• Run to the pull-up bars and complete 2 pull ups.
• Run back to the bottom of the hill
Round 2:
• Bear crawl to the first tree and complete 1 Spider-Man Merkin
• Bear crawl to the second tree and complete 2 Spider-Man Merkins
• Run to the pull-up bars and complete 4 pull ups
• Run back to the bottom of the hill
Rounds 3-5: Continue the series through 5 trees
Once all the PAX finished up the series, we circled up in the street near the pull-up bars. The 3 PAX that did not have experience Qing were invited to the center of the circle. I took a turn counting cadence and then the PAX each had an opportunity.
• Squats x25
• LBC x15
• Flutters x15
• Merkins x15

Each member of the PAX then grabbed a coupon from the stack of cinder blocks. We circled up and had another demonstration of counting cadence with the PAX involvement.
• Overhead Press x25
• Curls x25
• Bentover Rows x25
Put the cinderblocks back and moved to COT.

Reminder on how to write a backblast. Open slack and type /backblast and select the form that pops up.

My Hero Jesus

Leave a comment

WARMUP: 10 Each SSH, Cherry Pickers, Moroccan Night Clubs
THE THANG:
Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.” Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

25 HR MERKINS

Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Couldn’t you men keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.”

25 HR MERKINS

When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing. Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”

MOSEY TO FIELD

“Just as he was speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, appeared. With him was a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders. Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The one I kiss is the man; arrest him and lead him away under guard.” Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him. The men seized Jesus and arrested him.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭43‬-‭46‬ ‭NIV‬‬

BEAR CRAWL TO THE 50

“At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together, and Jesus was led before them. “If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, and if I asked you, you would not answer. But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.” They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.” Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.””
‭‭Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭66‬-‭71‬ ‭NIV‬‬

LUNGE WALK 50 YARDS

“Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law and the whole Sanhedrin, made their plans. So they bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. “Are you the king of the Jews?” asked Pilate. “You have said so,” Jesus replied. The chief priests accused him of many things. So again Pilate asked him, “Aren’t you going to answer? See how many things they are accusing you of.” But Jesus still made no reply, and Pilate was amazed.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭15‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

BEAR CRAWL TO THE 50

“Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged. The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They clothed him in a purple robe and went up to him again and again, saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!” And they slapped him in the face.”
‭‭John‬ ‭19‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

MOSEY TO THE PULL UP BARS

“As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!” But Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.” But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!” “Shall I crucify your king?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered. Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha).”
‭‭John‬ ‭19‬:‭6‬, ‭15‬-‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

GET CINDER BLOCK

“When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭23‬:‭33‬-‭34‬ ‭NIV‬‬

DORA
Partner with block
Partner 100 pull ups

“It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭23‬:‭44‬-‭46‬ ‭NIV‬‬

MOSEY TO COT

“On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ””
‭‭Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Hills and Heavy things are hurtful

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
– Mosey the track loop around Runde Park
– Peter Parker x10 cadence
– Merkin x10 cadence
– Windmill x10 cadence

THE THANG:
Part 1:
– Separate into 2 groups. One group starts at YHC’s truck and the other group starts at the batting cages

– Each station will have two sets of exercises. The first exercise will be done when the count is and odd number and the second exercise will be done on the even number.

Batting cage:
– Wall paver stones native to the AO. The general consensus was that they weighed about 70lbs.
– Odd: Bent-over Rows
– Even: Squats holding the massive paver

Truck:
– “Hell Pavers” as previously labeled by Dark Helmet. Equivalent to a cinder block but more compact.
– Odd: Curls
– Even: Overhead Press

Rd 1: 15 count of the Odd exercise at the station your group started with. Then run to the other station and do a 15 count of the Odd exercise for that station.
Rd 2: 14 count of the Even exercise at the station your group started with. Then run to the other station and do a 14 count of the Even exercise for that station.
– Continue decreasing the count as you complete the exercises.
– We called it after the 7 count to be sure we had sufficient time for Part 2.

Part 2: Half-Pipe
– Ran to the bottom of the big hill. Once there we were nicely positioned at the bottom of 2 hills on either side of us….like a half-pipe.
– The moderate hill had 5 cones positioned moving up the hill. And the steep hill had spots marked with duct tape at various points up the hill with the last one at the top.

How the half-pipe works:
– Run to the first cone on the moderate hill. Complete 2 merkins. It was called out that if you were not matching Funhouse’s form, then you were doing it wrong.
– Run back to the bottom and up to the first marker on the big hill. Complete 2 burpees.
– Run back to the first cone on the moderate hill and complete 2 merkins. Continue to the second cone and complete 4 merkins. Run back to the first cone and complete 2 merkins facing the way you are running. This makes them derkins.
– Run to the first marker on the big hill and complete 2 burpees. Run to the second marker and complete 4 burpees. Run back to the first marker and complete 2 burpees facing downhill. Coming up on those while facing the downhill sucks on the legs!
– Continue the series for the 5 stations on each of the hills.
