  • The bear went over the mountain

    The PAX gathered at the AO in the refreshingly cool morning gloom, and as Brown Bag was not wearing a parka, YHC knew it must be just above 50 degrees.

    Standard disclaimer and mosey around the track with a hard right turn across Magazine St, through the bollards and around much standing water to relative high ground in the oak alley.

    Warm up COP

    5 burpees OYO , SSH x20 IC, Peter Parkers x20 IC, 5 burpees OYO, Sealjacks x20 IC, ParkerPeters x20 IC, 5 burpees OYO, Smurfjacks x20 IC, Mountain Climbers x20 IC, 5 burpees OYO, plankjacks x20IC

    Mosey down magazine to the field in front of the zoo, which was looking like a lake. Much mumble chatter about puddles and wet shoes. We modified to the parking lot, using it as a large rectangle for cycling through BLIMPS at the corners. 5 Burpees, 10 lunges (2 legs is one), 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 merkins, 25 Plankjacks, 30 squats.

    PAX then assembled in two lines for Indian run across the levy to the ‘fly.  One large pool of water disrupted the smooth flow of the indian run formation with PAX tacking starboard and port to avoid it, except for Sea Man, who would not be deterred by mere water and kept his line straight down the middle of it.

    PAX assembled at the molehill at the end of the soccer fields.

    We then bear crawled up over and down the other side of the mountain, to see what we could see.

    On the other side we did 30 LBCs, then moseyed back around the mountain and reassembled.  Up and over the mountain again, but the second time we planked until all assembled, then Jack Webb 7s (merk followed by 2 air presses, to 7 merks) . Bear crawl back over the mountain to Jack Webb’s meaner brother, the Iron Hulk 6s. (merk followed by 4 air presses to 6 merks). Bear crawl back over the mountain.

    4 trips over the mountain and we were out of time.

    fast mosey back to the flag, COP, announcements and intentions.

    Thanks for the opportunity.

    Beautiful AM 65 degrees and a cool breeze.

    Mosey back to the Flag

    At the flag it was PLANK WALK and wait.

    We finished with the recent ISI challenge of SHOULDER TAPS in 2 min.  I did 110 but 86 won the day with 133.

    Thanks – It is always a pleasure to lead

  • Record Breaking Workout

    A record 26 PAX showed up Wednesday morning to the heavy, humid smell of duck shit. We ran quickly from that spot in order to introduce the PAX to some special hip-loosening yoga stretches. Seaman got a little too excited about these and had to be publicly asked to stop the #mumblechatter. Yankee rolled in hot, as usual, and caught up in time for some downward dog action. From there we took with some run/sprints, burpees, then some BrownBag special – defensive basketball slides. We stopped at the fountain for some power-ups, etc., then continued the run around the park to our soft, special, wet golf course green. BrownBag whipped out another special with some Climate Change – PAX in the Al Gore, tree-hugging position. We finished off with some more run/sprints before being welcomed back to base with the comforting smell of duck shit once again.

  • The Other Mountain

    Fun time in the gloom this morning with a great turnout.  Obviously inspired by Hawg’s presence, the PAX amped up the mumblechatter to near-Metry levels and kept it going throughout the workout.  After a quick disclaimer, we took the traditional stroll up and down the Avenue and set up in front of the Tulane sign for warmup (all IC):

    • SSHx25
    • IWx25
    • Merksx15
    • LSSx25

    Short mosey to the Loyola music building for BLIMPS, starting with 10 burpees and increasing in increment of 5.   Hard run from there down Calhoun to Freret.  At mini-WPM, alternate sprint/jog up the parking deck, stopping at each level for a different exercise OYO until Q says halt (about 30-35 reps each):

    • Level 2: Mountain Climbers
    • Level 3: Plank Jacks
    • Level 4: Peter Parkers

    At the top of MWPM, we partnered up for some core work.  Partner 1 ran down then up the stairs, while Partner 2 did the prescribed exercise, then flapjack:

    • V-Up
    • LBC
    • Russian Twists
    • Box cutters
    • LBT

    Short on time, we hurried back to the flag for the count, name-o-rama, and prayer.

  • Is that Love in the Air? No, it’s duck s**t.

    Ash Wednesday and Valentine’s Day don’t coincide very often.  It’s a confusing mash-up.  What to do?  After the Disclaimer, THE THANG:

    Continue moseying to the front of the park at the fountain:

    • lunges AMRAP
    • merkins AMRAP
    • squats AMRAP

    Mosey across the golf course for a wrap-up with Countoff, Name-O-Rama and COT for Lent and Valentine’s Day.  Thanks for letting old timers be the Q, Jingle Vader

  • Uptown Buttercups

    It was a lovely morning for 20 men to meet in the gloom to grow and improve themselves.  DISCLAIMER!  Let’s mosey… circle up in front of the Tulane sign:

    Let’s head to the bottom of the mountain.  Column of twos and Indian Run to the top.  It’s time to bring 11’s back…we just don’t do them anymore.  On your own, run to the bottom of the incline, do 10 crossfit merkins, run back up and do 1 WWII sit-ups…run back down and do 9 crossfit merkins, run back up for 2 WWII sit-ups, and keep going until reversed.  After a couple of the young studs finished and planked, the rest of us stopped where we were and headed down the mountain to the lawn in front of touchdown Jesus for some Mary.

    -Wife Pleasers x 20 IC

    Hurry up to the SF so we’re not late and RY chews us out….coutoff, namerama, announcements, shoutouts and a prayer.  Welcome FNG-Shanewego.   It was a pleasure to lead.  I look forward to the next time.

    HEY UPTOWN!  SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP!!!
