  • Take the Pax to Work(s) Day – from Hokie

    YHC told Mr Roger’s a week or two ago I would take the Q for the 1st El Diablo RCR workout and take the Pax on a different journey.

    After a quick disclaimer Pax were told we were going to get some miles in. We would run with waypoint stops to exercise. Fast Pax we’re instructed to sweep the six at each waypoint so they could get extra miles.

    We left the park and moseyed to the 1st stop sign toward the railroad tracks. We stopped to lift the right leg and just turn the ankle to get juices flowing. Switched and did same on left leg and ankle. We then opened the right gate to awaken the hip flexor followed with 7 slow 4 count merkins.

    We then headed down toward Airline to the next stop sign. Fast Pax ran fast and slow pax were circled. As we all converged we gathered for 7 more slow count merkins.

    Onward toward Airline stopping at 911 (Baloo’s house) for 7 more slow four count merkins.

    Onward to 1525 Airline where we stopped for 7 more slow four count merkins. 1525 Airline is Lucky Coin Machine Co and my M- F day job.

    We continued this pattern as we turned on Airline towards Causeway and Pax were instructed to stay safe and on the sidewalk. The stops were with 7 Bobby Hurleys. Our 1st stop was H-M furniture. On this stretch Mayhem let the Q know we only opened one gate so we also opened the left gate.

    We had 4 stops on Airline with the 4th stop being Las Cruces my Saturday day and Sunday day and night job.

    Turn around and return with 8 stops to return at Pontiff at 0610 were we did extra mileage on the track

    Thank you, I love you all!

  • Burpees, Blockees, Baby Boo-Boo – from Bolt

    There was meaningful chatter and HCs in mumblechatter after YHCs roll call the night before and when the gloom came there was a generational slant to the pax who showed up—with Boo-Boo being the “baby” of the trio.
    Warmorama with a lower impact mobility start given the 150+ combined ages of the pax plus Scantron’s KnOTs the day before had my knees barking.

    The Thang: KnOT, lunge, high knee our way to JPAX but there was an accidental skip along the way so you know the tax: 5 burpees. Once at the destination: Begin with 5 minute EMOM of…10 BURPEES (MABA…duh), Boo-Boo was pleased.

    Prepare for possum altercation to retrieve coupons—no long-nosed cat to be found. Assembled pax for full body BD: 5 blockees followed by an exercise of 15 reps (con coupon) with 5 blockees between each exercise: squats, curls, big boys, alternating lunges, tricep press, flutter kicks, Yang squats, bent over rows, gas pumpers and finish with 5 blockees for a total of 55 blockees and just enough time to make our way back to the flag.

  • Crabby Timers – from Mayhem

    Pool Boy originally had the Q. I don’t recall the excuse… he either had a family obligation or wanted to sleep in due to the 5% chance of a light mist. YHC arrived early to setup the cones.

    Disclaimer included the option to either push yourself or KnOT this morning.

    As soon as our feet hit the track for a mosey, the mumblechatter began as Q was reminded that The Uptowner is supposed to avoid running. Luckily, the Q didn’t care.

  • Count Down Your Reps! – from Bolt

    6 pax heeded the call for HCs the night before and still showed up in the chilly gloom so YHC decided on a full body workout using the outdoor gym. Warmorama of the usual with the now infamous official warm up song.
    Made our way to the gym, changing modes of transport at either third or each light pole: mosey, backward mosey, skip, high knees, karaoke each side, side shuffle each side, open/close gate, lunge walk.
    The Thang: YHC decided on an iteration of a previous workout: count the number of reps performed at each station during round one, add three to that total and count backward for round two’s goal. This tests the theory that the mind gives out before the body does. Muscle fatigue would typically result in less reps each round if the body actually exerted maximum effort yet each pax was able perform more reps in round two for at least one exercise. Moral: picking the goal and counting it down is more impactful than counting up until time expires.

    AMRAP 1 minute work, 15 seconds to switch stations x 2 rounds
    Pull ups
    Decline big boys
    Incline press
    Rows
    Dips
    R/L leg step ups
    Leg raises
