YHC arrived early, a little extra time to stretch. Akbar must have been thinking the same, so I had someone to chit chat with this morning. During the conversation, 4 Covington PD came in hot on the top of the A1C, just to “check things out” according to the officer. We were blessed by an out of town brother, Webelow, joining us from Jackson County (I apologize if I spelled it wrong)
Warm-up:ssh, grassgrabbers, torso twists, imperial walkers, self love (all to Christmas Time in Hollis Queens). Where the first trivia question, who was John McClain’s limo driver? Russo didn’t know the answer to this question(which was the theme of the beatdown). Argyle was the answer.
The next question was what was John McClain’s wifes name: russo was wrong yet again. Holly Generro
The thang: After the warmups, the PAX moseyed to the courthouse. The tragedy at Nakatomi plaza occurred on Christmas Eve, and we gathered today to honor the hero of Nakatomi: John McClain. The event occurred on the 30th floor, so that’s where we started. 30 merkins, 30 squats, 30 big boy sit-ups, 30 leg lifts. In between each exercise ran the length of the courthouse leading up to the stairs, up the stairs and then back down. Once the pax was finished we ran 1 lap around the entire courthouse.
12 Terrorists entered Nakatomi: 12 burpees
We now stopped on the side of the courthouse.
‘‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring,except for the four assholes coming in the rear in standard two-by-two formation.
Paired up. Partner one : side lunges the entire grass section to the concrete and back, partner 2= holds an al gore thoroughgood. Repeat.
The terrorists planned to use C4 to blow up Nakatomi Tower. The PAX completed in cadence 30 reps of these 4 “c”ore exercises: little Manny crunches, flutter kicks, Freddy Mercury’s, and penguins
Come out to the coast, we’ll get together, have a few laughs.
Famous line from the air ducts: time to do some ac duct crawling, while partner 2 does squats. Mosey back to the second floor to do a Hans Gruber pull-up: the pax hung from the raptors for 10 count, then did 30 Superman’s (he did fall 30 stories) .back to the stairwell to do 5 calve raises each to the top. And time was up.
Trivia Question: What type of watch was Holly wearing that Hans hand was caught on? Russo was incorrect with Seiko. Pelican for the win with Rolex. Given to Holly from Ellis. More quotes from Hammer.
5 Calf raises on each step on the way back up. Circled up for the first thing McClain did after going to the ER: Wife Pleasers in cadence for a 60 count. That’s when we were joined by Moby and turbodog. A few more core exercises.And to further celebrate the heroics of John McClain, a yell of Yippee Ki-yay Motherfu**er. The Trivia Question that Russo finally got correct. Thanks for letting me lead gentleman. COT and Hammer prayed us out. Thanks for the SplashPad joining us, thank you for Hammer to help create peace between battling AOs.
Thought for the Season: Is Lethal Weapon a Christmas Movie? The answer is yes, and possibly the theme for the next beatdown.
