Ad Hoc, but not when it comes from me

Leave a comment

WARMUP: N/A
THE THANG: Curls, Rows, overhead press, tricep extensions in exercise per row the last number of the parking spot was the reps. Finished the parking lot then took a lap for the 2nd half in which we made it around 1/4 of the way through. Thanks for the opportunity, was a great group of guys for my kettlebell VQ.

Tax Man Cometh

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SHH, IW, squats, run a lap in silence to remember Liza Fletcher. Lady from Memphis that was kidnapped, assaulted, and murdered while out on her morning run. She was a friend of my sisters and this hit home for me.

THE THANG: 3 rounds max reps you vs partner. A 100 dash was the timer for each exercise for each person. Upon completion of the exercise each person shared their total rep count. The person with the fewest reps had to do Burpees. Total number of burpees was the rep count differential after each exercise.
Round 1: curls, Uhauls, swings
Round 2: hammer curls, squats, tri extensions
Round 3: merkins on the bell, deadlifts, lawnmower pulls

Bonus: Sugar bug and Slash teamed up to tie every round. As a result they received burpee penalties every round.

My merkin form was called into question by Band Camp. I think this is purely a result of his kettlebell weight being 52lbs vs my 45lb. Band Camp had burpee penalties every round 🙂

Pole Dancing At The Yard

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mosey Pax to back parking lot. We did 10 Seal Jacks, 10 Plank Jacks, 10 Windmills, Moraccian Nightclubs, Over head claps, and 7 Merkins.
THE THANG: After the warmup I told the Pax to meet me at the road leading out to Springfield Pkwy. This was the start of the pole work we put in. Along the road there are 14 lights that I put exercises at each one. You start at the first light pole then you proceed to next pole after doing your reps at each. To continue down the road you have to start back at the beginning and work through all the previous poles before continuing to the next one. Here’s the list of the exercises and order they where in at the light posts:
Hand Release Merkins
Big Boy Sit Ups
Sumo Squats
Diamond Merkins
X’s and O’s
Carolina Dry Docks
Monkey Humpers
Wide Arm Merkins
American Hammer
Lt. Dans
Regular Merkins
Freddy Mercury
Jump Squats
Everyone’s favorite Kraken Burpees
10 Reps for all stations

It was a tough workout that Uhaul complained about the whole time saying it wasn’t original. Harry Carey, Tesh and Peabody where kings. All Pax got at least 2 miles in.

MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: F3 The Fort 10 year anniversary this week and the next.
COT: Prayers for Tater’s daughter. Thanks Fogerty and Bitcoin for the Q. Sorry I’m terrible at writing Backblasts.

KB Mashup

Leave a comment

7 showed up this morning at the Hive to the sound of Garth Brooks. Uhaul knows how much I dislike it so he made sure it was playing loud. We debated on what music to play for a bit and settled on 90’s Alternative.
Warm-ups consisted of several dynamic arm and leg stretches along with a plank routine to stretch out the back and hips.
The Mash-Up:
Each routine consisted of three exercises in each set with the fourth combining all three exercises. Here are the five routines:
• HALO
• ROUND THE WORLD
• SMURF ROTATION
• COMBO

• RACKED SQUAT
• RACKED LUNGE
• CALF RAISE
• COMBO

• PLANK PULL THROUGH
• ROW
• CURL
• COMBO

• SWING
• WINDMILL
• SHOULDER PRESS
• COMBO

• GOBLET SQUAT
• SKULL CRUSHER
• LBC
• COMBO (Most difficult, from squat transition to ground and back up to your feet after LBC)

First round 10 reps, second round 5 reps with some running in between rounds. Lots of discussion about Ben and JLO and their movie careers.
Great job everyone!

10 Year Anniversary Party

Leave a comment

As we approach 10 years of changing lives for men with capsized boats, let’s take a moment to celebrate and look forward to the next 10 years.

We will come together at The Print Shop by Amor Artis and share stories with fellow PAX, flux plagued potential EH targets, FNGs, M’s and just about anyone else you can identify.

#nospeeches just means that there will be no PowerPoint presentations, no microphones, no speeches… instead, we will focus on sharing stories with each other one on one or in small groups.

Please RSVP on the 2nd F channel as we will get private party status if we can hit 50 participants.
