This was YHC’s first Q outside the friendly confines of Uptown. So it was appropriate that it would be the Uptowner that would be YHC’s first Q in the great, big WORLD. You can imagine my dismay when I pulled into the parking area with no other cars around. Would this be a party of 1? If you Q in an empty park, did it really happen? Hold on….who is that walking over the train tracks? None other than Hand Grenada! Now we have a party! But wait there’s more! Here comes Fracsac to join this merry band. The three musketeers it is. Quality over quantity PAX. Let’s get this party started…right?
Circle up for Warm up,
- Windmills X 15
- Forward Arm Circles X15
- Reverse Arm Circles X 15
- Imperial Walkers X20
- Hillbillies X20
We’re all warmed so let’s go to the rock pile and pick a small rock. Oh wait, in my excitement of actually having PAX show up for my Q, I forgot the all important disclaimer. So, disclaimer it is and then…
Circle up with small rock for Thang 1:
Block Webb – 1 merkin to 2 air presses with small rock increasing by 1 merkin and 2 air presses all the way up to 10 merkins and 20 air presses. All OYO. Needless to say we were feeling the burn in the shoulders by the end.
Let’s walk over and throw the small rock over the fence to the baseball field. Back to the rock pile to pick a large rock
Take Large Rock walk around fence to field drop rock and walk to grab small rock from other side of field. Lunge walk with small rock back to where we dropped big rock.
As we only had 3 Pax, we decided to combine forces for Thang 2
