  • Forgot I signed up to Q by Dry Socket – from Cyrous Ardalan

    A surprising Q as I initially thought I was signed up for Wednesday! Without a watch I figured I would step up to humbly lead these men into confusion.
    We started with some SSH, Grassgrabbers, Peter parker, Parker Peters, Arm circles, Rev Arm circles and overhead Claps.
    We then ran through the park and at each light post did B L I M P S. 4 laps so a total of 40 Burpees, 40 Lunges, 40 Imperial walkers, 40 Merks, 40 Squats

    Then we came around and half the group did 2 laps around the parking lot while the other group did 15x LL and RL step ups and 15x LL and RL power ups.

    Some of the PAX were unaware I had no concept of time this morning and luckily Chowda and Douille were giving me the correct time when I asked for it.

    So then we began a nice game of ring of fire with 20 merkins total 2 times around.

    After that were some core exercises consisting of LBCs, Dying cockroach, Freddie merks, Low Country Crab, Wife Pleasers.

    Realizing there was still time left, we ran 2 more laps around the parking lot and then ended with 20 Merks at the flag.

    All in all I think we got in a great workout…sorry for the confusion. Be it mine or the PAX. DS.

  • Burpee Challenge, One and Done!? – from Tinkles

    A solid pax showed up for the first Skinny of 2021. I for one am fat and out of shape and was glad to have the motivation to get the week started well. A quick show of hands demonstrated that Bieber was the only pax present who is participating in this month’s ISI. I figured we could join him for a day. The rest of the pax enthusiastically agreed.

    • Warm Up:
    o Forward arm circles X 20
    o Revers arm circles X 20
    o Grass Grabbers X 20
    o SSH X 20

    • Socially distance run for a bit. Regroup and hit 5 burpees at each of the next 5 running man markers.

    • Pull over for a Merkin ring of fire:
    o Standard X 10
    o Left arm staggered X 10
    o Right arm staggered X 10

    • Socially distance run for a bit. Regroup and hit 5 burpees at each of the next 5 running man markers.

    • Slow mosey to corner of Walnut and St. Charles
    o BLIMPs down St. Charles
    o Turn around and BLIMPS backs

    • Socially distance run for a bit. Regroup and hit 5 burpees at each of the next 5 running man markers.

    • Socially distance run for a bit. Regroup and hit 5 burpees at each of the next 3 running man markers. Made it back in time for almost timely departure.

    Count off to 16, namorama, and intentions for a great 2021. Thanks for the chance to lead. I don’t think we started a group movement but Bieber keep representing us!

  • 12 Days of Fitmas – from Bolt

    The mosquitoes turned out along with 20 PAX total for my VQ. Feeding on energy from the group we started with a short mosey around the clubhouse parking lot to circle up at the pavilion for an attempt to warm up enough for lactic acid to be released. I think I’m the only one who experienced that after SSH, Lounge Singers on each side (Angie’s List’s new favorite), Grass Grabbers in the middle, Peter Parkers, Parker Peters, Hillbilly Squats, Arm Circles froward/back, Moroccan Nightclubs, Seal Claps, finishing with Self Love.

    The workout began with really bad singing of the 12 Days of Fitmas, taking us through 12 different exercises with guest singing appearances from Kermit the Frog and/or Cookie Monster depending on who you ask.
    Day 1: Mosey
    Day 2: Merkins
    Day3: Shoulder Taps
    Day 4: Lunges
    Day 5: Burpees
    Day 6: Squats
    Day 7: Diamond merkins
    Day 8: Big Boy sit-ups
    Day 9: Plank Jacks
    Day 10: Superman
    Day 11: SSH
    Day 12: Mtn. Climbers

    With 11 minutes left, we put our fate in the “deca-die” of pain, rolling for random exercises (OYO) including 15 tuck jacks (twice), 15 jump lunges, 20 tricep dips, 20 burpees, 30 mountain climbers, 15 Vladimir Douillies, 20 merkins. Mosey to flag for 20 dying cockroaches, CoT, name-o-rama: welcoming in FNG, Escrow, and finishing with announcements/intentions and prayer. F2 coffeeteria followed, immediately preceded by hosing the dog crap off my shoe which I apparently carried the entire workout.
