It was all the regulars at the Gipper today (all but Grundy, I should say), with Einstein coming in hot to maintain his untarnished attendance record. YHC gave a more hearty and pronounced disclaimer before diving in:
Warm-Up: SSH, Seal Jacks, Windmills, Arm Circles (forward & back), IW’s, and Butt Kicks.
The Thang:
First stop, the bedrock quarry to grab a rock. YHC explains that the PAX will be with their rock for most of the beatdown and not to get too macho with rock size. Tanked Up heeds this advice, but later feels sheepish about his rock size… no matter, this is Frankie C (patented hand gesture)!! You can bet he got more reps than the rest of us.
So, rocks in hand, we took a slow mosey over to the Justice Center. YHC figured that if last week’s incident with the Pequod and a car popping up on the curb didn’t ruffle any feathers, then a bunch of guys hauling rocks to the Justice Center might go unnoticed as well.
The PAX got on their six to begin: 15x Skull Crushers (hence the hearty disclaimer), 30x bench press, up on your feet for 30x squat/overhead thrusts, 30x bent over rows. Then Lt. Dan’s across the walkway, discard the rock for a run up the stairs and around the perimeter, and repeat starting with the bench press.
Next, partner up: Partner 1 holds rock above head and performs squats while Partner 2 (rockless) runs the courtyard, up the stairs, performs 5 burpees, and runs back to flapjack. 2x.
And finally, the PAX picked a column to hold a People’s Chair while performing some Wonderbras (“push em out, and push ’em up!”), 30x IC.
Slow mosey back to the quarry to unload, and then onward toward the flag for the final routine: Partner 1 holds mission impossible plank (impossible indeed), while Partner 2 bear crawls up the small hill, does 5 sit-ups, runs and jumps onto the stage and back around to relieve P1. 2x.
A minute for Mary, so we knocked out 50x Freddie Mercuries, IC.
Countdown, Nameorama, and Shooter prayed us out. Thanks gents, as always, it was a good time.
