  • Frisbee and Burpees – from Fracsac

    The Mothership happened today with a visit by Goose from Thibodaux. Ballast, Heisenberg, Revit, Catfish, Bongo, Dax, Tool, Kennah Brah, Squints, and YHC brought us to 11.

    Disclaimer made, then mosey.

    Warmup at the peristyle with some regular stuff and included TIE Fighters. #IYKYK
    Ended warmup with a mental challenge. Count to 16 SSH in cadence than to 22 in silence. Penalty for non compliance was 10 burpees. Spoiler alert: we did 10 burpees.

    Move to great lawn for variation of BLIMPS to recognize NDSU in FCS playoffs. 5 more burpees ‘cause the pax called their mascot a buffalo.
    1 cone in the middle with 5 cones on the outside. Start with 5 burpees in the middle and then bear crawl to an outside cone to do next exercise. Always return to middle cone for 5 burpees.
    10 Lunges, 15 IW, 20 ‘mericans, 25 PJ, 30 squats.

    Mosey for a while with a Bison run. Last man sprints to front of column and tosses frisbee to last man, continue until all get a shot.

    Ring of fire in front of sculpture garden entrance. ‘Mericans, squats and then monkey humpers (just as a nun was walking by – not my best day).

    Mosey and pass the frisbee across at least 4 pax. 5 burpees for the one drop.

    11s at the bridge behind Cafe du Monde. Jump squats on one side and V-ups on the other side.

    Some frisbee practice at Pops band stand with SSH.

    Finish with some Mary then back to the flag.

    55 burpees total. #ironsharpensiron

  • NOT Easy Like Sunday Morning! – from Triple Shift

    The Commodores released a song called “Easy” 1977 that has a classic line in it that goes like this, “I’m easy like Sunday morning.” Well, the one thing I discovered in F3 NOLA, is that easy workouts are not things that motivate me to get up in the gloom. To me, Easy is sleeping in, overeating, staying up late, foregoing that hard conversation, etc. Simply put, easy is being indifferent or passive. Conversely, I’m not saying that you should always look to redline your heart rate at every workout but it’s not my natural inclination to do hard things. So, under that mindset of creating a hard workout, I presented the following.

    Warmup – Low Slow Squats, Low Slow Merkins, Imperial Walkers, SloVigodas, and Grass Grabbers

    The Thang – Perform 30 air squats, 25 V-Ups, 20 Body Rows (flat portion of hand rail where you are inverted and bring your chest to the bar), 15 No Cheat Merkins (hand release merkin with two shoulder taps), 10 Bulgarian Split Squats (each leg by the fountain), 5 Burpees and then run a ¼ mile. Rinse and repeat a total of 4 times. Maytag killed that workout and picked up the six!

    COT – Countoff, Namerama and gave thanks to God for his gift of physical health so we can help others in need.

  • Yippee! – from Rudy

    7 PAX (5 on time, 2 stragglers) at the Mothership for the annual Yippee Bag! Hot Hot Hot.

    Warm Up on the field. No one seems brave enough to tackle the Yippee Bag as we go through stretches, some SSH, some IW and some Peter Parkers. OH WAIT. Catfish breaks the ice and pulls the “20 Low Slow Squats for the Q”. So while YHC does that, Catfish leads the Peter Parkers.

    The Thang

    11s, with Sit Ups and Jump Squats. Intermingled are Lunges for the Q, Ring of Fire, Balast dares to reach in and immediately regrets it, as he pulls the “10 8 count for You” card. Bongo draws the “Tag” card, and its on! Game of Tag while PAX continue trying to complete 11s (El Guapo is still it). Snooze draws the “1 lap for a PAX” and nominates himself. I guess he thinks running is better than Jump Squats.

    Finish up, close up the bag and mosey over to the Rock Pile. Grab a Rock.

    First thing with the rock is a repeat of Friday’s rifle carry. The distance was shorter – maybe 200 yards? To the stop sign and back. Go!

    After that, circle up for some Press/Curl/Row combos, along with some Yippee treats. Catfish defeats RevIt in a “Hold your breath” challenge. Bongo and Catfish get Wacky Jacks x20. YHC gets 20 BBSU. And a partner-up back-to-back Peoples Chair. Put the rocks back, head to the museum.

    At the museum side stairs – Tooth Fairy is the timer (increasing Irkins up the steps), while another group does peoples chair and another does LBCs. Interruptions for 10 8 count BBs for everyone, then 1 lap around the museum. Mosey back to the flag.

    COT: prayers for Bongo’s co-worker and a cancer diagnosis. Continued prayers for Saban’s mother and family.

    Thanks everyone for putting up with YHC during the birthday week Q bonanza!

    18 exercises
    17 for 100 seconds each
    10 second transition between exercises
