Pillars of Pain

Lots of rain this week, but it didn’t prevent the three men from tackling a sandbag workout. We set our bags down for warm-ups (SSHs, IWs, WMs). Big lap around the field and back to the front of the school.
Sandbag exercises in cadence: overhead press, curl, merkins, calf raise. Lunge walk to last pillar. Squats, LBCs, bend over row.
Big lap again with bag.
With 10 minutes remaining, we attempted the pillars of pain: 1 man maker at each pillar adding 1 at the next pillar. We fell short of the goal, but provided some good ideas for <@UN3JKG18C> Q next week.

Blasting backs for peggers

WARMUP: A brisk jog that left the Q too winded for the rest of the stretches and exercises to be called correctly. The pax held strong and performed them correctly anyways.
THE THANG: Four corners of pain consisting of rows, presses, flutters, bag tosses, man makers, American hammers, front squats, deadlifts, curls and something called Bradley Presses (Q sited some website called onlyfans for where he found the exercise).

We bear hugged and lunge walked our bags to and fro.

Some slight delays during the work due to lack of visibility and eye sight (mostly eye sight) to read the repertoire of exercises on a homemade index card.

MARY: she wasn’t there, it was too cold.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: none
COT: praise your higher power whoever/whatever that may be it just ain’t you.

Bearded Wonder Takes On The Pond

NASA asked me to Q Minnow Pond about a month ago and I accepted forgetting that I had Lake Haigler 12 hour 2 days afterwards. The plan was to take the Minnows to the trails and get some miles there but that will have to wait for another time to do that. It had rained the night before and there were a lot of leaves on the trails. Didn’t want someone to do a Superman like Dark Helmet did last time I Q’d here.

Took the fellas to Harris Street Park and as Strava describes it Harris Street Hell Hills. It’s almost a mile to the park from Veterans Park so keep that in mind for future Q’s.

We did hill repeats each way with 10 hand release merkins at the middle, 10 monkey Humpers at top of one side Harris Street and 10 Sumo Squats at Harris/21 Hill. Most got close to 4 miles total.

Had a group of guys carrying around fancy book bags filled with styrofoam peanuts and a few had actual weights in them. Maximus,Rebound,Dark Helmet,Farmers Only,Spider-Man, Crystal Lake, Wooden Leg and Anchorman all rucked I’ll let you decide who had peanuts and who had weight.
