  • Are their any regulars at Granny’s House? – from Cowbell

    YHC was excited to Q and see some regulars at Granny’s to which the witty wacker poised the question, Are their any regulars at Granny’s anyway? Good question and food for thought. No, wacker was not there to find out…
    …But Steve and Chewy were… Welcome back guys!

    Warm up:
    SSH X 30
    IW X 20
    PP X 10
    PP X 10
    PJ X 10
    MC X 10
    AC F/B X 20

    The Thang:
    Complete 50 burpees, run 100 yards, 50 jump squats, run 100 yards, 50 merkins, run 100 yards, 50 LBC’s, run back to the start.
    complete 40 burpees, run 100 yards, 40 jump squats……

    The idea was to complete through 10 reps each but the mumblechatter was plentiful…
    I believe more regulars would have increased the competitiveness and thus allowed us to finish. We’ll try again!

    Back to the flag for COT.

    Thanks for letting me lead!

  • Team Tuesday

    With RunCajunRun well underway YHC EHed his Team Captain for a mosey to and from the AO. Hammer met the Q at the Scramble at 0450 and we journeyed our path with great discussions. Arrived at the trailhead with Hogsbreath waiting in his car and Steve rolling in on his cycle. Would have been nice to have Cowbell or Bushwacker but YHC may have altered the minds when he shared with Sir Wacker that there would be intervals and not run intensive. However, all and all the PAX did get in an additional 2 miles to log once complete.

    warmup

    IC10 Toe Touches, Torso twists, Windmills and Seal Jacks.

    thang

    Moseyed to the tunnel for a “Doracide!”

    100 Merkins

    200 Squats

    300 Mountain climbers

    400 SSH

    P1 does work while P2 ran suicides to 3 called spots completing 1 Burpee, 2 Burpee and 3 Burpee returning to pickup count of P1. Moseyed back to the breezeway for continued team work.

    200 LBCs

    400 Flutter kicks

    Partner moseyed down breezeway up the steps completing 2 jump squats and return to pickup count.

    Thanks to Steve taking us out in prayer!

    Appreciate you men following my lead and until the next Gloom 👍🏼👊🏼✌🏼!!

  • Some are tardy and others just skip the day!!

    YHC arrived to Grandmas with his winky in his pocket. The instructions would be simple and plain for this Gloom, but it’s always best to write it down just in case you have the occasional poster that may decide to throw in thoughts, of say a hidden coupon that has yet to make its debut. However, moving forward something tells me our lost friend in the BUSH will soon be revealed by his father Bushwacker.. Q reached very shallow into the Exicon for today’s beatdown, although the work was geared towards a fellow PAX who often shows up collecting his tardy slip at the AOs. Today would be logged as a skip out day instead. My creativeness is very limited in writing so let’s move on already..

    warmarama

    10IC Torso twist, Arm circles forward/reverse, Overhead claps, SSH and Butt kicks.

    thang

    “Billy Madison”

    Back to School

    1st-12th grade in 40 mins.. Well, actually we all dropped out in 10th but there is hope for redemption later this week.

    All reps to 12 adding a grade after each lap in single file fashion. These students wanted to be over achievers on this day, but the instructor decided to keep the class on the same level today..

    1st Merkins

    2nd Merkins, Jump squats

    3rd Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks

    4th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy frogs (your welcome Cowbell)

    5th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy frogs, SMC (sister Mary Catherine’s)

    6th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy Frogs, SMC, Peter Parker’s

    7th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy frogs, SMC, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters

    8th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank Jacks, Crunchy frogs, SMC, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters, 8 count body builders (again your welcome Cowbell)

    9th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy Frogs, SMC, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters, 8 count body builders, LBCs

    10th Merkins, Jump squats, Plank jacks, Crunchy frogs, SMC, Peter Parker’s, Parker Peters, 8 count body builders, LBCs, Apollo unos.

    Time was running out so the instructor released the students, but still wanting extra credit Hammer and Steve skipped a grade and completed the Burpees. Moseyed back to the flag with 2 mins. Held chillcut plank followed by the “chillcut rock” back and forth on toes IC to 12. I am sure there is another name but the Q will take credit on this Gloom for creating this one😬..

    Count, Name and COT

    Appreciate the Hammer’s closeout and until the next Gloom 👍🏼👊🏼✌🏼!!!
