Pre-Thang
9 well adjusted chaps got their 6 out of the fartsack to get better in the gloomy, dewy grass of the BirdCage. Unfortunately, our beloved flag fartsacked. Hopefully it will choose to get better Friday.
The Thang
We moseyed down the track to the rear corner of the park for a warm up COP
COP (all in cadence)
SSH x 25
Hillbillies x 20 (didn’t know if we were doing them right, as Hawg wasn’t present to critique form.)
Merkins x 10
Imperial walker x 20
Lunges x 15
Mosey to the Fly
The Slip n Slide
With the pax lined up in plank position, and the weight bag at the end of the line, the two men on the outside edges line up to sprint up the levee and back. If the bag gets passed down the line, before the runners get back, the runners do 5 burpees. Go until everyone runs. If the men have to do burpees, everyone gets a 5 count recovery before the next runners go. (The name is derived from the lack of braking ability for some of the men on the way down the levee at full speed, one of those men being YHC, who slid far enough to end up in a ‘water’ filled ditch.)
Mosey to the riverside
The Mississippi Salute
LBCs x 20
Merkin x 10
LSS x 15
Repeat
Modified Putin – With the pax in a line facing the river, and the weight bag at the end of the line, everyone assumes Putin position, and we pass the bag down the line and back, keeping feet in the air. Recover with a 5 count. Repeat x 5
Mosey to J.J. Audubon
Step ups (right foot lead) x 20
Dips x 15
Step ups (left foot lead) x 20
Mosey to the light poles
Football workout of which I don’t remember the name x 2 – Men start in a standing line, upon beginning, start chopping your feet (kind of like running in place, with your feet staying low to the ground.) When Q calls “drop,” the men drop chest to ground, get back up, and continue chopping. Repeat until Q shouts “go,” then you sprint to the first light, and recover jog/walk to second light.
From here, move into plank position, when Q starts, everyone chops their feet agian. When Q shouts “left,” drop to the ground, roll to the left, roll back, and get back to chopping in plank position. If Q shouts “right,” do the same, but roll to the right. When Q shouts “go,” sprint to the next light, and recover to the second light.
Mosey to the nice grass adjacent the ‘flag’ and do 3 Minutes of Mary.
LBC x 20
Penguins x 15
Flutter Kicks x 20
Freddie Mercury x 15
Mosey to the Flag
COT
Requests for prayer for Channel Mullet’s Father, Amnesty’s father, as well as Dr. Collins, a friend of many of the PAX in Metairie, followed by a prayer offered by YHC.
Moleskine:
Lots of camaraderie today amongst men who haven’t worked out together in a long time, it was really a delightful thing to see Iron sharpening Iron.
Lots of conversation during the mosey, which means it’s time to pick up our pace.
TClaps to Zombie for posting twice in a row upon Kottering post newborn.
