  • Something Simple – Sort Of – from Charmin

    When YHC saw that there wasn’t a Q signed up for the Uptowner, he knew what to do. YHC has noticed a ton of creative, unique, and original beatdowns as of late and wanted to remind the PAX that a beatdown can be something simple.

    So of course, wanting simplicity, when YHC came up to the gate this morning to see it locked, he knew some audibles would need to be called.

    Mosey on over to the rock pile warm-o-rama, picking up Mayhem along the way. Once we get there:

    15 Side Straddle Hops
    05 Imperial Walkers/Squats/Hillbillies (these still need work)
    16 Mountain Man Poopers
    15 Mountain climbers
    15 LBC’s

    The Thang:
    Mosey on over to the practice field and explain
    One PAX always Moseying to the fence and back.

    Blimps

    B – burpees
    L – lunges
    I – imperial walkers
    M – merkins
    P – plank jacks
    S – squats

    The goal was 100 of each exercise for each PAX, and PAX who completed everything could donate reps to other PAX however this was more audacious than YHC thought it would be while laying on his bed the night before.

    Overall though, this workout was about each PAX pushing himself.

    Along the way we picked up a Klinger and a Fozzy.

    With about 5 minutes to spare, we all started to go back to the Shovel Flag. Some Pax being faster than others, they were told to Plank until everyone was there. Once YHC saw that Kenner Brah and Tenderloin were going to be a minute, and as it wasn’t 6:15 yet, I decided to do one of my favorite Mary exercises, Penguins. Once 6:15 hit and we noticed that not all the PAX were back at the Shovel Flag, the idea to move the shovel flag to the PAX was thrown out and quickly executed; talk about Freed to LEAD!

    COT: Prayers were asked for a work colleague of one of the PAX. Ended with a prayer thanking GOD for allowing us to wakeup this morning and that we all have dignity inherint to us.

  • All Hail the 88th – from Rudy

    March 29th, the 88th day of the year. That screams out for a particular exercise. Hint hint – fortunately, Frac knew the answer…

    But first – the air was a bit chillier than anticipated for this first annual National Midriff TShirt Day. Bogey and Frac joined YHC in baring our bellies. Not quite sure how this idea started, I blame over-caffination at CC’s on Monday. Hokie, Mayhem and PVC KNEW what was expected, but bailed on us. The other 6 PAX (including 1 FNG who undoubtedly was wondering what he’d gotten into) were blissfully unaware of that expectation.

    So we started with 9 burpees OYO as a penalty – 1 for each fully-clothed PAX

    Then off to the rocks (“Don’t cheat yourself” was the instruction. Frac and FNG took that to heart).

    In the field, YHC’s timer struck 4 minutes. That meant – its time for 8 8-count body builders. After PAX completed, YHC explained that the timer was set to go off every 4 minutes. Each time, drop what we’re doing and do 8 8-count body builders. We’ll finish with 11 sets, 88 total 8 counts. Good times!

    Thang 1: 8 x 8 x 8 to work these flabby, exposed midriffs back into shape. Start on one side of the field with 8 Twists, then in the middle with 8 4-count slow flutters, then the other side of the field with 8 BBSU. Then return to the start of the field. All exercises and movements con roca. The goal is to get 8 sets.

    Oh, and YHC would announce the 4 minute timers.

    The Architect set the pace, finishing his 8th set right around 6am (just after set #7). In the interest of time, YHC called it off.

    Thang 2: Keep that rock up. 8 Overhead, 8 curl, 8 row. Repeat at 7, then 6, … then 2, then 8. 2 more sets of 8 counts in the loop.

    Time to return home – via a rifle carry to the rock pile. Hand Grenada took off at a sprint. Impressive!

    One more set at the rock pile. Horses back home, and finish with the 11th set right as time expired.

    Back at the flag, finish with name-o-rama, naming our FNG – “First Shot”. Maybe that was because it was the first nickname shouted out, or maybe it was because he’s proud parent of a sweet little girl, born approximately 9 months after his wedding day…. (BTW – He’s Mutt’s son)

    Closing with a prayer to help us all live our life intentionally, as we called out intentions for those who are sick.

  • El Diablo Head to Toe – from Bolt

    Aiming for full body engagement where sunrise/sunset resistance bands is the timer (x15) with Pax at different stations con roca: reverse lunges, squats, tricep press, OH press, curls, rows, chest press AMRAP (target:40), rotating to the left. Once all the pax had the pleasure of each station, on to Mary: wife pleasers, dying cockroaches, etc. and YHC couldn’t resist the draw of the high jump: everyone cleared the starting height and two of us cleared the second one, tie for the COT

  • Charmin Maniversary – from Charmin

    Apparently today was YHC’s Maniversary; so to celebrate I have written a lymrick:

    I posted in the gloom today for a ruck.
    I chose this ’cause I knew running would suck
    In total there were 9 runners
    1 walker, and 3 ruckers
    We are all thankful for F3 getting us unstuck

  • Welcome to February – from Hokie

    8 Pax welcomed in February with 2.25 miles and a bunch of burpees

    After disclaimer, we moseyed to track for our warm up. Each 1/6 of a lap mosey we conducted a warm up such as ankle rolls, opening & closing gate, high knees, arm circles, some “clubbing”, neck rolls

    We continued to mosey in 1/6 of a lap increments with variations such as Running backwards, regular mosey, lunges forward, lunges backwards

    At each 1/6 lap stop we did either 5 or 6 burpees and then 10 of other exercises like shoulder taps or mountain climbers

    At 6:40, 6:50, 7:00 & 7:10 the alarm sounded and we did 1/4 mile mosey followed by 5 burpees and then shoulder taps while waiting on the six

    2.25 miles & 156 burpees later we stretched for 3 minutes to someone Mumblechattering the Q was just looking to waste time

    Stretch before & after your workouts and at least one day a week for an extended period to help prevent injuries.
