With FracSac looking to get his pretty face on TV on Baton Rouge this morning, YHC volunteered to be a sub Q. YHC is usually a Birdcager on Wednesday; this was only his second or third post at the Foundry. He’s trying to promote international amity and solicitude amongst the NOLA tribe. It’s tough work, but someone has to do so. Cogito, ergo ererceo. Shorty tossed out the possibility of DJ style, but does he post? [That question answers itself, but where was Hawg or Triple Shift or Amnesty or Wall Eye, etc.?] So with a quick disclaimer, a PAX of seven set off for a nice mosey up Roosevelt Mall, where Tool slid on in to make a round eight. A good number: it multiplies and divides well.
COP1 (where there was lots of MumbleChatter, particularly from Mr. Chatterbox who was apparently still licking his wounds from the different calls to Clemson than to ND a few years back. Suck it up: it was Alabama, for heaven’s sake: they’re supposed to lose).
- Imperial Walkers 25xIC
- Low Slow Squats 25xIC
- Don Quixotes 25xIC
- J Lo’s 25xIC
- Parker Peters 25xIC
- Mountain Climbers 25xIC
- Daft Punk (for Cowbell) about 10x in quasi cadence (not really; completely F’d up, more like it)–YHC needs to work on this. Is it one lunge on each side for an around the world for an 8 count? Or is it two lunges in front, one to one side, two rear squats, then a lunge to the other side for a six count? SFx, where are you when we need you?
- Arm Circles: 25xIC each direction (We missed you in this gloom this morning, Amnesty)
Mosey to the kiddie gym for COP2. The PAX split up into four pairs for rounds of burpees (the count), chin ups (and/or hang with arms in an L) (AMRAP), box jumps (AMRAP) and dips (AMRAP). First round, 16 burpees; second, 12; third, 8; and fourth, 4. [Less mumblechatter, more heavy breathing JV-style.]
Mosey to the benches along Roosevelt Mall for COP3: The PAX split into two groups of four. One group did 8 derkins at first bench and moseyed to second, while second group moseyed to second bench to do 8 derkins; then continue for 6 derkins at the next bench, then 4 and then 2. Return home with same pattern, but with inclined merks instead. [YHC noticed that the pod who started with derkins before the mosey overlooked(??!) moseying after they did their fourth/last set of derkins, but YHC is a polite HIM and keeps that thought to himself.]
Mosey back to the kiddie gym for COP4: Again, the PAX split up into four pairs for rounds of Imperial Squats (the count), leg lifts from the monkey bars (AMRAP), step ups (AMRAP) and rows (AMRAP). First round, 12 Imperial Squats; second, 9; third, 6; and fourth 3.
Sorry, no time for Mary. Quick mosey back to the flag for Name-O-Rama, announcements, intentions, and COT. Pretty good for a Q on the fly if YHC must say so himself. Thanks to the PAX for keeping him honest.
Love and peace, Jingle Vader
Methinks it takes 12 counts to get all the way around the world on the Daft Punk. Right Leg Forward Lunge (2 counts), RL side lunge (2 counts) RL back lunge (2 counts), LL back lunge (2 counts), LL side lunge (2 counts) and finally LL forward lunge (2 counts). When we did it at Okwata, I counted it in 4. No idea if that is right or not. All I know is that if I am the Q and Cowbell posts, we’re doing it.
