4 strong this morning, on a beautiful NOLA day. A lot of men with other commitments, so Rev and YHC split the Q. We definitely need more Qs. If you have come to a couple of workouts, you are ready. Let Yankee know that you would like to Q and he will work you into the “schedule.”
The Thang
Rev on Q
- Mosey to NOMA
- Warm-up COP: SSH IC x 25; Low Slow Squats IC x 15; Knee slaps IC x15; Merkins IC x 10;
- Mosey to the new stairs Rev found at that side of NOMA
- What started as 11s, but ended as approximately 5.5s: Run 11s on the stairs on the side of NOMA. Start with 10 burpees at the top and 1 squat at the bottom. Rev called it off after 5 burpees at the top and 6 squats. People’s chair as we waited for the six. (Total of 45 burpees – remember that for later)
- Mosey for about an 1/8 of a mile
- Jack Webb Tribute to RY. Start with 1 Merkin and 1 air press…workup to 10 merkins and 10 air presses. #MumbleChatter – Rev assured Maverick and Bubba that these are very easy. YHC made sure to let them know he was lying and these things suck…really suck.
- Mosey to outdoor gym
- 4 Stations: Pike Sit Ups x 20, Lateral hops, Dips, Pull-ups/dead hang. Pike sit ups were the count. 1 Rotation.
Hawg on the Q.
- Mosey to the teeny soccer field.
- Ark Loader: To Midfield and back (about 70 yards total) – Bear Crawl, Crab Walk. To Penalty Box and back (about 30 yards total) – Duck walk, Frog, Crawl Bear, Walk Crab #MumbleChatter – A ref, presumably for a teeny soccer game later, thought it was important to tell us how strange we looked during our Crawl Bear. Good thing this guy has never seen us do Wife Pleasers or Teabaggins.
- Mosey to a tree in the middle of the disc golf course
- Each man runs to 1 of 4 disc golf holes and does the number of burpees listed on the sign (5, 8, 9, or 10). After completing the burpees run back to the tree and start doing LBCs until the six. Finished when each man has completed all 4 holes. (Total of 32 bupees – brings count to 77)
- Mosey back to the great lawn stopping to do three sets of burpees along the way. Sets of 8, 8, and 7. (Total of 23 burpees – brings count to 100)
- Low plank for a 15 count and sprint to the flag.
Moleskin
This workout was low on numbers but big on pain. 11s are definitely tough when burpees are involved. This was a lesson that I learned at the hands of Gandolf during the kick off in October, but something YHC needed to be reminded of today by Rev. YHC got excited about the number of burpees in the first half of the workout and decided the PAX would appreciate getting to 100. Great coffeeteria afterwards with Mav and Bubba.
Shout Out
Congratulations to Bubba as he and his M prepare for the arrival of Bubba 4.0 in April. April is a great month for birthdays (crawfish boil every year). Prayers for Maverick as he haa big week coming up this week.
