After many days and more sleepless nights of relentlessly preparing for what I prayed would be a perfect VQ, I woke up to a beautifully, wet, muddy and demeaning Gloom, courtesy of the Birdcage. Nonetheless, 16 strong braved the weather and duck-filled fields to get covered in sweat and dirt.
The Thang:
- Disclaimer
- “Side Straddle Hop” x 25
- Two lines of a “Burpee Catch Me If You Can Indian Run”
- Enough for each Pax to get in one set of 5 Burpees
- “Global Warming” where the ducks most certainly left some treats behind for us
- Mixed in with…
- Peter Parkers x 25
- Imperial Walkers x 21… – hope to get better at the whole counting thing
- Arm Circles Forward x 20
- Arm Circles Back x 20
- Monkey Humpers x 20
- (All done while a park employee surely sat in his truck recording the 16 strange men dancing in a circle)
- Mixed in with…
- Mosey back to light posts
- “B.O.M.B.S.” – I severely underestimated how long this would take us. When I look at the numbers again, I’m not sure why. Timing adjustments will be made for my next Q!
- 50 Burpees
- 100 Overhead Claps
- 150 Merkins
- 200 Big Boy Sit-Ups
- 250 Squats
- (pairs who finished early started a second round)
- Workout Complete
- Successful name coup by Breitbart mid-nameorama. Bold move. Bold indeed.
Pumped to have lost my V-card and looking forward to the next Q!
Words of wisdom to anyone planning their VQ:
- You’ll need to take off an entire day of work to go through ALL the exercises on the F3 site.
- Run through your full workout ahead of time so you know what you’ll actually be able to fit in. Should have listened to Reverend on this one!
Great Q Jadeveon. I’m hurtin’ for certain.
