So YHC was wide awake at 0300, wide awake… No excuse not to post on a cool autumn Friday.
So after a trip to the coffee pot, and a quick check of the Q list, YHC saw “A1C Needs a Q”
Always at the ready I grabbed the giant F3 Jenga and made way towards the 22nd Judicial Court parking garage [A1C]. Arriving at precisely 0515 with my fuel gauge so low the needle was ready to break off.
Jose 10k, BBQ, and Aikbar steadfastly waited for my amazing arrival, mustache and all!
“Anyone have the Q?….Alright I got this!” I declared.
Warm Up:
20 SSH ic
10 Mummy kicks ic
10 Good Mornings ic [with lots of Dad groans]
We then did a Muhammad mountain mosey to the start of the parking spaces; Mosey forward 3 spaces, and backpeddle 2 spaces; lather, rinse and repeat till we made our way across the entire garage floor. At the far side of the parking garage we did a Muhammad mountain bear crawl; three spaces bear crawl forward and two spaces backpedal.
The thing
This is where the giant outdoor Jenga took place. After assembly in the middle of the A1C garage YHC went over the rules
Much like Jenga each pax would move forward and remove a block. Only One block could be removed, or touched, at a time. The block was then placed on top of the tower and pax would preform the exercise listed, it was dealers choice if OYO or IC. YHC also gave the stipulation if the tower fell, then the person who removed the block and the pax to the left would preform burpee’s until the other pax rebuild the tower.
Who knew that grown men could have so much fun at Jenga? The suspense built as the tower also was built in height. The tower developed a northern lean as we built it up. There were many surprising moves “he won’t get that block out!!!! Oh crap he did!”
“It’s the game where everyone wins!” Said Hogs Breath
“Hey don’t make me do burpee’s” dryly replied Jose 10k
The tower ended up growing to 19 stories. Since this jenga set had both a combination of Fia/F3 names there were differences in lexicon and ex icon terminology
“What is a curtsy lunge?” And “what are leg levers [leg raises]?” Pax did their best to interpret and adjust on the fly. There were several blank blocks which became dealers choice, which meant merkins.
On the 19th tower level, Hogs breath removed a block “jump squats” and place it on top of the ‘north leaning tower of Covington’. Jose 10k took several steps back so his massive earth shattering jumps would not impact the tower. But it was to no avail, around the fourth or fifth iteration, at precisely 0556, the tower’s lean became to much and came crashing down. BBQ and Hog’s Breath began burpee’s while Jose and Aikbar listened to confusing mumblechatter of rebuilding the tower, or putting it away, then rebuilding, finally deciding to clean up the blocks and place them away.
One more round of Muhammad mosey, three forward, two backpedal to round out this a.m.’s beatdown.
Ended with Count-o-Rama, Name-o-Rama, and COT
