  • Coupons and Benjamins

    14 Pax got up to welcome the weekend at the Mothership on this beautiful fall day.

    The Warm up

    After a disclaimer by the Flag, we moseyed to the great lawn area and went through 10 minutes of stretching without any cadence. 30-45 seconds of Cross Body Arm Stretches for each arm; 30-45 seconds of Shoulder stretches for each shoulder; 30-45 seconds of Adductor Stretch w/ Tspine Rotation in each direction; 30-45 seconds of Lunges; 10 -15 yards out of Bear Crawl and then back with Crawl Bear focusing on flat backs and shims parallel to the grounds; 30-45 seconds of One legged bend overs with coupon for each leg.

    The Thang

    Dora style workout (except every thing was 100) with 7 teams of two. Whenever the team finished they were rewarded with shoulder taps until all 7 teams were completed.

    Round 1 100 Triceps with coupons and Rifle carries

    Round 2 100 Overhead Presses and Duck Walks

    Round 3 100 Sumo Squats and Carrying coupon

    Round 4 100 Staggered Merkins and Overhead carries

    Round 5 100 Curls and Lunges

    Round 6 100 KB swings and Crawl Bears and Bear Crawls

    We then closed under the peristyle with Ascending testicles for one minute (twice) and a rinse and repeat of the pre-thang stretching

  • Merkins for Merica

    Merkins for Merica

    At 0530 it was already hot and humid for The Whoopie at The View but that did not deter 6 Pax from the challenge of getting out of bed in the gloom.

    After a very brief disclaimer we moseyed toward the Wilson Canal Pump Station at a leisurely warm up pace. Once at the pump station we started with Merkins for Merica to Thunderstruck by AC/DC for 5 minutes of planking and Merkins.

    We then entered a Merkins for Merica Dora. Pax 1 would run downhill toward Lake Pontchartrain and towards the Treasure Chest, then Bernie Sanders up the walkway to Pax 2 who was starting on 100 T-Merkins. As we were about half way through the 100 T-Merkins, we picked up a 7th Pax member.

    After each group had their 100 T-Merkins, we followed with 200 Wide Merkins and 300 Shoulder taps.

    We then moved over to the wall for 1 minute of people’s chair, 1 minute of wall handstands and another minute of people’s chair before returning to our Flag-less starting location for 5 minutes of Mary and the COT.

    During the announcement portion we mentioned the upcoming Gnarley Nutria and promoted the Tuesday nights with Q Source.

    Next Tuesday we will cover the Whetstone which is mentoring with the analogy of the whetstone sharpening a blade 

    Tuesdays at 7:30 pm via zoom or in person with a little F2 (fellowship) starting at 7 pm.

    Felipes off Claiborne on S Miso between Frostop and Elio’s

    During the intentions we lifted up those struggling with health issues, along with those struggling with mental, emotional, marital difficulties and those dealing with their jester deamons. We closed with giving gratitude for F3!

    God Bless America and thank you for the opportunity to push myself and hopefully push those present with my version of Merkins for Merica.
