  • Pre-4th Pontiff-icating

    Four pax showed for the uptowner asking each other who was Q. At the 5:30 mark Vagabond claimed it and then group moseyed to rock pile and standard warmup with SSH, grass grabbers, windmills, peter parker, arm curls, mountain climbers, etc. Then on to the field of gloom where the pax circled (squared) up for ladder drill starting at 20 reps, declining in increments of 2, to 12 reps, comprised of a variety of maneuvers including burpees, elf on shelf, quarry, bench presses, lunges, ‘merican hammers, curls, box cutters, etc., with mosey’s in between each set. Closed out with 35x ‘dude you’re killing me’ LBCs enthusiastically cadenced by Bogey, plus 90 second plank. Mosey back for count off, ID, COT and prayer.

    Thank you Lord for our nation’s way-ahead-of-their-time and extraordinarily courageous founding fathers. And to all the patriots who gave their lives, loved ones, and/or livelihoods so we could have so much over two centuries later.

  • Renaissance Rock Fest

    Eight Pax, plus our mascot DJ, showed for some work on the NOMA “porch” to the tunes of 1980’s arena rock, courtesy of Def Leppard, Rolling Stones, Ozzy, etc. (idea inspired by Scantron). After the disclaimer, warmup, the group performed 3 cycles of 7 maneuver sets (rotating push-ups, caterpillar + shoulder taps, crouching side-steps with lunges, J-Los, wife-pleaser + sit ups, bear crawls up/down steps, box-cutters), with mosey and burpees in between… once ‘round NOMA and the other to the park entrance. Finished off with a double dose of Sunday Mornings behind NOMA, then circled up at the flag for COT. We were excited to see FracSac posting! One late-comer joined the workout after the start but did not join us for coffeeteria, I believe F3 named “Kruckie” or similar…if someone has his contact info, I’ll reach out to get him connected (musician from Australia). As for Vagabond, his third Q on the books and looks forward to helping more.
