“Ice, Ice Baby” – Vanilla Ice

So cold that JV didn’t wear a wife beater!  But JV, Rudy, and a FNG showed up in shorts… yall made me cold!  Anyway, our Pax of 17 + 1 (find out later) was in a ball of man praying to start.  With a minimal, but essential DISCLAIMER, we were off to go warm up.

The Thang

Quick mosey across the great lawn to a bricked area (about 30 yards in length).  We will be here a while.  YHC explained that in the cold, skiing is always on my mind.  (FYI, Rudy is going next week!).  So the deal was we would perform an exercise first, then perform:

15x Mountain Climbers IC
Ski Jumps 30 yds to the other side

Here were the exercises:

Slaugther Starter – 13 x Burpees OYO
Nipple Scrappers – 12 x High Plank, then under the fence, and back under
Oblique Planks – 30 sec holds, then 10x pulses IC (each side)
Wheel of Animal Walk – 10 merkins, then animal walk across(Duck, Frog, Bear)
Floyd Mayweathers – 25x Plank Punches IC
Legorama – 12x LSS IC, 12x Squats IC, 10x LSLunge w/10x Pulse (each leg)
Alt. Shoulder Taps – 30x IC
Knee Tucks – 20x Squat Jumps OYO
Elevens – Merkins & Lunges (YHC loves you!)

Great warmup!  Now lets mosey over to the parking lot for a test, before the test began, Tool showed up from his morning run…since he missed the exercise spelling warmup, he offered little help to win the game, but in today’s world, he still got a participation trophy!

Kinda like Wheel of Fortune, but instead of spinning a wheel, we do burpees for YHC telling the Pax the letters (e.g. 1 burpee = 1st letter; 3 burpees = 3rd letter, etc).  I think the Pax’s reaction was like the guy to the right:

fortune

YHC messed up the explanation, so we went in letter order… Pax got it by letter 5 S N O W F _ _ _ _ = 10 burpees total.  That could have been bad if they didnt!

Mosey over to NOMA and split into 6 groups of 3 Pax.  So YHC has been taking a Computer Science course OYO, so here is my attempt at what I’ve learned.   I’m sure Rudy will comment!

#include <stdPaxMumbleChatter>
#include <stdExicon>

Pax1 = Run up to top of NOMA and back down, tag Pax2.
Pax0 = Pax1
Pax2 = Burpees OYO, run to tag Pax3.
Pax3 = Peoples Chair.
Circuit = Pax1 + Pax2 + Pax3

int main (void)
do Circuit (int n, n < until Q says so, n++)
{
if (Pax1 tags Pax2)
Pax1 = Pax2
else if (Pax2 tags Pax3)
Pax2 = Pax3
else
Pax3 = Pax0
}
return 0

Did 10 minutes of that circuit.  Mosey back to the parking lot neat the SF, and circled up.

Plie Work: Low open squat hold, while performing these exercises.

10x Arm Circles (F) IC
10x Arm Circles (B) IC
10x Out and Front Claps IC
10x Out and Up Claps IC

3 Minutes w/ Mary:
12x Crunchy Frogs IC
12x Flutter Kicks IC
12x Hello Dolly IC
12x Box Cutters IC

Times Up!  We held the COT and headed over to Coffeeteria after.  Thanks for letting me lead!

Moleskin

Hawg, JV, and Kim Chi are a perfect 6/6 in 2017!  Awesome guys!

    Not to be pedantic (because I’m *never* that), but:
    1. Failure to initialize n could result in unintentionally long exercise loop (depending on the Q’s language-du-jour). But seeing as how we finished on time, you’re language du-jour must support default initialization.
    2. More importantly, after 3 tagups – all PAX will be running up and down the stairs. Check your assignments!

    Great workout! Great showing by the PAX. I’m finally warm again….
