  • Birdcage – Week 2 – The Iron 34PAX Challenge

    Pre-Thang

    After YHC’s first visit at Okwata’s H4 Challenge, YHC discussed with Tool and Mahatma-Ice about the possibility of bringing a Rock City type of workout to Birdcage with cinder blocks.  Of course… with their support, YHC was able to get the goods (28 blocks at 28 lbs and 4 blocks at 19 lbs) from Tool and loaded them up onto Mahatma’s truck.

    Meanwhile, on Sunday, Reluctant Yankee sent out Week 2 IronPax Challenge, which incorporates exercises with cinder blocks.  What are the chances??? With many personal texts and mumblechatter convincing the Q to facilitate the challenge (a lot of passive aggressiveness), YHC finally decided to forgo his planned Q with the blocks and went with the challenge.

     

    The Challenge

    Thanks for many PAX help at 5 a.m. to mark the 25 yard distance and unloading all 32 blocks onto the field, YHC was able to start the disclaimer on time at 5:30 a.m. and off we go…. Unfortunately, YHC didn’t get enough blocks for the challenge.  YHC underestimated his popularity… didn’t expect to see 34 PAX and thought 32 blocks were more than enough.

    Actual Week 2 Iron Pax Challenge – accumulated Rep scoring

    4 sets x 8 minutes – perform as many reps as possible in 8 minutes.  After 25 reps, must run 25 yards out and back.  Rinse and repeat until 8 minutes is up.  Rest 2 minutes between sets.

    Set 1 – Thrusters with cinder block

    Set 2 – Curls with cinder block

    Set 3 – KB Swings with cinder block

    Set 4 – ManMaker with cinder block

    Total Score = Set 1 Reps + Set 2 Reps + Set 3 Reps + Set 4 Reps

     

    COT

    Count-O-Rama 34 PAX, Name-O-Rama with one FNG & one PAX from Tallahassee, announcements, intentions.  A record day at Birdcage with 34 PAX participating a heck of the challenge.  Welcome Iron Horse (Tallahassee) and Sinner Bloq$ (FNG) because he’s a pastor working out with cinder blocks.  How fitting???

     

    NMM

    T-Claps to everyone making the challenge possible at Birdcage.  Tool – supplying the blocks.  Mahatma-Ice – picking up the blocks with his truck.  Yankee – measuring the 25 yard distance at 5 a.m.  Hawgcycle, Candy Land, Gabrielle, Medulla, Angie’s List, Willie – help unloading off the truck to the field in the Gloom.

    Thank You all again for the opportunity to facilitate the challenge.  SYITG

    King Kong

     

    Standings – YHC didn’t get everyone’s reps because some modified the challenge, 4 PAX were using the 19 lbs blocks instead of the 28 lbs, or YHC just didn’t do a good job collecting everyone’s score.  Whatever the reason, this is the list:

    Rev-It – 325

    Seaman -625

    I Love You Man – 425

    Douille – 375 (left early)

    Iron Horse – 609

    Angie’s List – 502

    Bartman – 500

    Gabrielle – 583

    Willie – 558

    Rev Sox – 468

    Tinkles – 489

    Medulla – 455

    Quarter Pipe – 456

    Mahatma-Ice – 805

    Saban – 655

    Sinner Bloq$ (FNG) – 655

    Peaches – 475

    Hawgcycle – 592

    Reluctant Yankee – 445

    El Wire – 505

    Mariah – 495

    Chiquita – 415

    Candy Land – 325

  • 19 for 11

    Back from Canada after a weeklong hiatus, YHC was ready to get back in the saddle.  7 days is enough to enable one to forget just how oppressive August humidity can be in the south.  Feeling like a weakened northerner, unable to face the Southern Summer, YHC decided to dress the part – so for today (and today only), Union General Ambrose Burnside made an appearance at Rock City.

    As the gloom lifted – PAX appeared, crawling out of every nook and cranny at Pontiff playground.  First there were 5.  Then 8.  Then 11.  Uptowners made the long Trek.  The clock steadily ticked towards 5:29 and the PAX just kept appearing.  5:30 – and BAM, 19 PAX set off down the path.

    Warm Up

    Assume the position.  Plank position.

    • Peter Parker x25
    • Parker Peter x25
    • Mountain Climber x25
    • Plank Jack x25

    Recover.  Just kidding.  Back to Plank.

    • Shoulder Taps x25
    • Floyd Mayweather x25

    Recover.  For real.  Now go get a Rock.

    At this point, YHC owes Bogey an apology.  I heard grumbling about lack of guidance on rock size selection.  Who else would grumble, I thought?  So I blamed Bogey.  But alas, it wasn’t him.  The grumbler still remains anonymous.  Probably an uptowner.

    The Thang.  11s

    Mosey to the tree-lined field.  Line up in the middle, facing West.  We’ll do 11s.

    • Burpees on the West side (starting at 1, heading up to 10).
    • West to East run: stop at your Rock for 11 Shoulder Presses
    • Squat Jumps on the East side (starting at 10, heading down to 1).
    • East to West run: stop at your Rock for 11 Curls

    When finished, PAX joined the circle for LBC waiting on the 6.

    Hydrate.  Can’t emphasize this enough over the summer.  Stay hydrated.  Quick water break at the Gazebo.

    Change of Plans.  Right, the Gazebo.  I’d forgotten about that.  Since we were all there (except the few left by the rocks because they didn’t want water), we grabbed some bench.  (the other 4 brave souls began running over)

    • Right Leg SU x25
    • Irkins x20
    • Left Leg SU x25
    • Derkins x15.  And those last 2 were killer for the Q.

    Grab a spot on the wall for a rest.  People Chair.

    • 90 seconds.  Up and shake it out.
    • 60 seconds, with Air Press x15

    Mosey back to your rock.  Bring the rock back to the pile (pressing, curling, overhead carrying while moseying).  Then back to the flag.

    Wrap Up: Count-off.  19 PAX, a new rock City record!  Great to see all of the new faces out and about.  Keep EH’ing – bring F3 with you wherever you go!  Announcements of upcoming races and events – Next Gen Gala on August 24th.  Keep up the great work, Babyface!  Finish up with prayers.  All: remember Rev Sox’s father in your prayers.  Losing a lifelong friend and partner cannot be easy, Sky Q: please grant Mr. Rev Sox the strength and comfort to persevere and grow.

    Also – thank you all for the prayers and support you have offered me over the last weeks.  My sister has a diagnosis, and its really the best possible outcome: stage 2a Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, nothing below the diaphragm.  That all means her condition is very treatable, with a great prognosis.  Still a long road, and several chemo treatments yet to come.  But this is the best outcome we have been hoping and praying for since the initial diagnosis.  Thank you all again!

  • Hopping on the H8 Bandwagon with a H4

    “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” -Kelly Clarkson

    Lots of buzz going around lately about the semi-annual H8 coming up in October.  It’s always a tough workout as well as a good test of progress for the PAX.  It’s also a love-hate thing for YHC since it has put me through the wringer and almost killed me, each time getting closer to that 8 lap goal.  The run is palatable, as well as the bear crawl, but the merkins and burpees seem to be slow many of us down.  So, in order to fix this, YHC thought we’d knock out a scaled down version of the H8 as part of the Thursday workout at Okwata.  Here’s what went down:

    Conditions:  Warm, dark, and zero breeze…just how we like it

    The PAX:  Some usual Okwata crew plus King Kong making his way to the AO for the first time…t-claps

    The Disclaimer:  Not a professional…push yourself, don’t hurt yourself…try to give it your all for the next 45 min…

    The Warmup:  Mosey over to the usual warmup area only to find some loud people still partying/fighting so a detour over to the seawall area for SSHx20, HBx20, ACx20, WMx10, ISWx10, Plank Rollx10, Peter Parkerx20.  Then we lined up for a mosey along the seawall with a stop at each light pole for Squats x10 at each one, six poles total.  Probably not the best thing to do before the H4/H8 route but YHC wanted to make sure we broke a sweat first and the workout wasn’t a cakewalk.  Capped it off with LS Dips x25 at the planters.

    The H4:  Run the same lap/route as the H8 with bear crawls in the middle and merkins (instead of descending burp/merk) at the end…40 on 1st lap, 30 on 2nd, 20 on 3rd, 10 on 4th, 10 on 5th.  Goal was at least 4 laps in 20 minutes.  T-claps to Mahatma and Smooth for blasting off right out of the gate.  The PAX pushed hard and several guys finished 4+ laps.

    The Finale:  Enough time left for a mosey along the levee towards the House of Pain.  Group 1 stayed up top for LBC x40IC + Penguins x20IC (timer) while Group 2 ran down to the pull up bars for AMRAP Pullups followed by Hanging Knee-ups.  This was a long timer, maybe too long, but the PAX hung in there.  After a round for each group, time to head back to the flag.

    COT:  A few announcements and followed by a prayer.

    Here’s a few things we kicked around post-workout in regards to maximizing our individual performance at the upcoming H8:

    1.  Use the downhill runs to catch your breath and don’t try to race down.
    2.  The top of the levee has a few sharp surprises during the bearcrawl.  Appeared to be pieces of exposed plastic mesh.
    3.  Try to crank out the Merkins/Burpees in a fast manner.  YHC fell behind on this.
    4.  The fall and spring temps are more conducive to this workout than August.
    5.  Calling cadence and working in squats does not help boost your time.

    Thanks for the opportunity to lead.

  • This BB is Late – I’m a Bum

    Walking back to my house from the Uptowner, I met a man and woman walking their dogs.  The man was in his 50s and dressed as if he might own a sailboat.  It stood out to me that he was wearing sunglasses at 0630, so I will call him Shades.

    Shades:  You alright?

    Hawgcycle:  Yeah, why?  Do I not look alright?

    Shades: ….

    Hawgcycle: …..

    Shades:  Well, I can tell you are not a bum.

    Hawgcycle: …..

    Shades:  Where do you live?

    Hawgcycle: …..

    I’m pretty sure the fact that Shades told me he could tell I was not a bum means:

    1.  He was pretty sure I was bum when he first saw me.
    2. He was still not sure that I was not a bum.

    I’m not sure what the term bum means to Shades, but I am going to take this interaction as a compliment.  My alarming appearance and fatigued stagger leaving the Uptowner Arena means I left it all at the AO.  There is also the possibility that my disheveled hair, $3 flip-flops, painted toenails, and horrendous stench formed his opinion.  I’m sticking with the former.

    Here’s what put me in that state:

    Warm-up

    SSH x 30; IW x 31; Don Quixote x 15; Hug it out OYO while YHC gave some instructions.

    Iron-Pax Pre-Challenge

    20 Hand Release Merkins – 100 yard Bear Crawl – 20 Hand Release Merkins – 100 yard Bear Crawl for time.

    Wood Hero WOD

    400 meter run – 10 Burpee Box Jumps – 10 Sumo-Deadlift High-Pulls – 10 Rock Thrusters.  AMRAP.

    Most of us used the T-Shift Laundry Detergent Buckets to jump over for the Burpee Box Jumps.  A few used the pump wall.  We also used the buckets for the Sumo-Deadlift High-Pulls.

    NMM

    Many things were impressive about this group today:

    • 9 guys posted – big turnout
    • 5 guys wore red.  Most ever
    • All 9 were sub 8:00 on the challenge and ranked top 60ish
    • All 9 attacked the Hero WOD after bearcrawling for days

    Thanks to all those protecting freedoms around the world.

  • Blocks Under Your Tree

    Workout Log Sat – 8/3/2018

    18 men showed up well rested with normal Sat expectations for a good sweat….and the hint that gloves were recommended!

    Quick disclaimer – off for a mosey to our playground.

    Circle Up for WarmUp – keep is simple all in cadence x 16 4 count

    Michael Phelps

    SSH

    Quarter Lung L & R

    Mnt Climber

    Shoulder Taps

    Head to the parking lot: Tool was kind enough to load his sleigh with a “present” for each one of us: Full Cinder block weighing 28# and a 1/2 @ 18#.

    Return to the playground: Instruction for our Christmas Tree Workout given – as expected there was plenty of chirping but Q was able to get the idea across – A Christmas Tree Work out starts at the top and progressively expands as you move downward to the bottom adding intensity and challenge: Start with exercise#1, then repeat #1 and add #2, then repeat #1, #2 and add #3 then repeat  1, 2, 3,  and add #4……repeating and adding until you get through that last exercise.

    ALL to be completed while carrying, lifting or moving block present.

    #1-run approx 100 yards – NOTE because this was to be repeated Q instructed PAX to simply run the entire playground there and back and then start #2.  From that point #1 would only be have the playground there and back.

    #2- 10 one arm crossover push ups – up and over block (5 ea arm)

    #3-15 complex V-ups (with block in hand lift to a left leg V up then Right leg V up then  both leg V up

    #4 – 10 box jumps (using the benches across the street) or 10 each leg step up

    #5 – 10 Block Jacks – Q did a very spastic 1st demo but recovered to ensure everyone got the right idea.

    #6 – 10 Over head Squat Press

    #7 – 12 Rock Burpees – complete a Burpee then grab your rock to finish of with an overhead jump press

    Those that finished early were encouraged to do another round of all, excluding #1 – PAX got a 1 minute active recovery as we broke up into teams of 2.

    Line up with partner –

    Event #1

    Pax 1 Farmer carried blocks out approx. 30 yards while Pax 2 did 3 Burpees then Bear Crawled out to retrieve blocks with a farmer carry back while Pax 1 did 3 burpees and Bear Crawled.  Once back each Pax with block over head ran to the opposite end of the playground (approx 100 yards).

    Event #2 (Pax 1 became 2 and 2 became 1)

    Pax 1 would Kong Block out (Kong is a lowland gorilla movement of reaching out with hands pressing on the ground to move both feet up to a parallel position with hands).  Then complete 3 Burpees and Kong Block back.  To create separation Pax 2 would 1st do 3 Burpees and follow Kong Blocking out – also returning in the same Kong Block movement.  Once both PAX had completed the 1st run now PAX 1 would farmer carry both blocks 5o yards out – while PAX 2 did 3 Burpees then Bear Crawled out to retrieve blocks.  PAX 1 drop blocks a the 50 yard mark completed 3 Burpees and Bear Crawled back.

    1 minute active recovery while circling up for some upper body and core work

    10 seconds rest in between each movement below:

    Block Curls x 20 4 count

    Bent Over Row x 30 4 count

    Over Head Press x 15 4 count

    Block Curls x 15 4 count

    B-O Row x 25 4 count

    Front Raises x 15 4 count

    On our 6:

    Right arm block balance with legs lifted in flutter kick position x 30 seconds

    Left arm block balance with legs lifted in flutter kick position x 30 seconds

    Block Press with flutter kick x 20 4 count

    LBC with rock x 20 4 count

    Recover – time to return our blocks F3 ruck style – 2 lines – blocks overhead Q to call for right to left transition back to over head. – After loading the blocks – Q recognized there was still 2 minutes of FUN time left – mosey with PAX over to the far side of the playground – quick suggestions that we could all carry the burden of someone of something on our shoulders as we gave our all in one last push of physical output – Sprint 100 yards across the field – I can honestly say that although there was some initial grumbling EACH PAX gave this effort 100% finishing strong – although all of us a distant 2nd to Disclaimer – who by the way runs a FREE sprint workout each Sat after our F3 group finishes.

    Back to the flag – Count Off

    Announcements

    Add on – F3 inspires leadership – each PAX encouraged to sign up to Q workouts – Challenged to commit to 1 per month.

    Intentions

    Prayer of Thanksgiving

    Q requested a 1-2-3: F3 breakoff – much appreciated.  Thank you for the opportunity to lead this Sat workout!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  • It’s Blimping Hot Out

    Rock City has been a hot ticket the last few Mondays, with Uptowners and FNG’s alike arriving for a hot beatdown on muggy Monday mornings. No different today, with 15 men rocking Pontiff for a good sweat. A gentle disclaimer for our FNG, and off we go.

    We took the usual mosey just past the Rock Pile for our warm-up COP:
    SSH x 20 IC
    Imperial walkers x 20 IC
    Merkins x 20 IC
    Windmills x 15 IC
    Arm Circles 10 Forward, 10 Backward IC
    Mountain Climbers x 20 IC

    To the rock pile to grab a rock. YHC suggested just a medium rock today, so not to overheat with a bit of running. Then we mosey to the tree line along the running path for BLIMPS.
    5 Burpees
    10 Lunges IC with rock
    15 Imperial walkers IC with rock
    20 Merkins (without rock)
    25 Presses with rock
    30 Squats with rock

    The we mosey to the Pontiff Hill for 11’s, to the chagrin of Cowbell.
    Rock shoulder press on one side, run over the hill, Rock squats on the other side.
    This sufficiently gassed YHC, so a little water break was in order.

    Then back to the tree line for return BLIMPS.
    5 Burpees, this time with a rock press (courtesy of Triple Shift and Mahatma)
    10 Lunges IC with rock
    15 Imperial walkers IC with rock
    20 Merkins (without rock)
    25 Presses with rock
    30 Squats with rock.

    Mosey to center field for some rock Mary.
    Flutter kicks holding rock high x 20 IC
    LBC’s with rock on chest (Medulla’s idea) x 20 IC
    American Hammer with rock x 20 IC

    We then returned our beloved rocks and ran back to the flag for count off, name-o-rama, announcements, intentions, and a prayer. Our FNG is a pastor who loves Alabama football, so the Pax named him War Eagle. Tool astutely noted that his neighbor was the original War Eagle, but has not ben out in over 2 years, so the name was repossessed. If @Reluctant Yankee finds this unacceptable, we will happily re-name him.

    Thanks for allowing me to lead.

  • 8118

    So many directions that a Q can take that sometimes it’s hard to pick just one.  With some late night pondering though I couldn’t pass up the opportunity of 8118.  Has there ever been a palindromic beatdown in the history of F3?  Does the Pax know what a palindrome is?  Does the QIC know that numbers really aren’t palindromes?  Is drinking a Rockstar and going for a 7 mile run at 10pm a good idea?  Is drinking a Rockstar and…… ever a good idea?  Having exhausted myself I knew I needed a workout where the Pax could just do their thing.

    Mosey over to the zoo parking lot for a warm up:

    • SSH IC x 30
    • Hillbilly IC x 30 (testing the ability of the assembled hillbilly’s to count to 30)
    • Mountain Climbers x 30

    Mosey to the Audubon statue for some stretching and a little Q&A.  As Rudy was not with us I had to scan the crowd to find the next most likely PAX to appear on Jeopardy and my eyes settled on JV.  ‘What is a palindrome?’ Some under the breath musings about Elba and Canals hinted at the answer.  ‘Why does that matter today?’ Nip Tuck nailed it, ‘8118’.

    The Thang:

    • A figure of 8 run around the medians
    • 8 Merkins at the bottom and top of the 8
    • 1 burpee every time at the crossover
    • Run forwards from bottom to top of the 8
    • Run backwards from the top to the bottom of the 8
    • Run 8 laps

    Not much was said from this point on.  Perhaps some disbelief or just boredom.  There wasn’t an official time goal but we did run out of time with most still on the course.  Congrats to Beiber, Pony Boy, Mahatma, El Wire, G Spot, Peppa, Swamp Cock plus maybe others who finished the 8 laps.

    Mosey back to the flag.  Count off and namorama.  Intentions for Rudy’s sister and a couple of Roots’ friends who are ill.  An official uptown H8 may be something to consider.

     

  • Carry Anothers Burden and Push Yourself

    YHC unexpectedly took the Okwata Q this week for two reasons. First was to help a brother out, and the second was because Okwata is a Rockin’ AO! With all the recent talk of the H8 lately, YHC knew we needed to do something to begin training for it. There’s no doubt previous training for the H8 led to the World dominance at the Gnarly Nutria! Enough about the World’s victory….

    YHC planted two shovel flags, one for ‘Merica, and one for the Nation! With the ole watch telling us it was 0530, time for the disclaimer…and then….

    Mosey around the Mardi Gras fountain, carioca left, then carioca right and circle up in front of the fountain.

    Warm Up
    SSH IC x 31
    IW IC x 15
    Abe Vigodas IC x 10

    Plank-o-rama (Ode to Rudy)
    Peter Parker IC x 15
    Shoulder Taps IC x 15
    Parker Peter IC x 15
    Mountain Climber IC x 15

    Mosey to the top of levee behind the fountain for a Chaos Run.
    Pax line up and begin to run toward Canal. When the Q calls “Disperse”, the Pax runs down either side, executes 3 burpees, then sprints back to top of levee, then continue run in single column formation. The Q called “disperse” about 5 or 6 times before we made it to Canal.

    BLIMPS
    Starting at the first corner of Lakeshore Drive and Canal.
    Burpees IC x 5 (6 count)
    Run up Canal to Amethyst Street
    Lunges IC x 10 (4 count)
    Run across to other corner of Amethyst and Canal
    Imperial Squat Walkers IC x 15
    Run down Canal to Lakeshore Drive
    Merkins IC x 20 (4 count)
    Run to original starting point corner
    Plank Jacks IC x 25 (4 count)
    Run up Canal to Amethyst Street
    Squats IC x 30 (4 count)

    Well, that was the end of the first set of BLIMPS, time to throw in some H8 training!
    Burpees IC x 5 (6 count)
    Run to the top of the levee on Canal, Bear Crawl across, run down to Lakeshore Drive
    Lunges IC x 10
    Run back up to top, Bear Crawl across, run down to Amethyst
    Imperial Squat Walkers IC x 15
    Do this until the BLIMPS are completed….

    Times Up, Mosey back to Flag for COT

    Count off, Name-o-rama, Announcements, Intentions, and ended with a prayer to the Sky Q.

    NMM

    Upon completing Plank Jacks at Amethyst, YHC stopped everyone for a 10 count. YHC asked all Pax to push themselves as hard as they can on the last leg, symbolizing carrying the burden of someone for just that brief time. We can’t take the pain or the suffering away, but we can help them carry it, even if for just a short period of time. It may only be symbolic, but YHC believes it transcends much deeper.

    YHC got to meet the legendary Amnesia today! Not sure if he’ll remember where Okwata is…..

    Thanks to Hokie Pokey, Bongo, JV, and Mahatma for pushing me today!

    Thanks for posting with me! SYITG

  • Up Towner #2 – Murph 7/20

    The name says it all – Speaking for my self, still feeling a little sore from the GN I was not looking forward to pushing through a Murph.  That said some workouts you simply have to get started – focusing on something or someone else and simply give it all you got!

    Pax of 4 initiated our 1st mile around the park – keeping together with 2 Utes having us around an 8:10 pace.  Now at the “place” the fun begins – 100 pull ups, 200 push ups and 300 squats.

    All of us decided to break it up: 5 – 10 -15 pushing each other through the effort (offering spots on pull ups to ensure quality form).  Note to Abacus – “duck” – I think it actually happened twice where being oxygen deprived or maybe fogged up glasses from effort he walked into one of the lower crossbars – but none the less pushed through.

    In the midst of all this effort – Amnesty had jumped in the fray and joined the misery!

    Now complete of our # all that was left – 1 more mile!  Amnesty suggested we take advantage of the track rather than the loop around the park, all agreed and went to work.

    Job well done guys…..Murph complete!- Count Off, Name, Intentions and Prayer of thanksgiving.

    Each time I do this workout I can’t help but think of some of my brother Marines as well as others who’ve served in ALL branches honorably – giving that ultimate sacrifice.  This is what drives my motivation to push through the small amount of discomfort, yes pain at times but then again I give thanks to God for my health and the fact that I get to go home at night safely to a loving family……while those I push through for are hopefully in place I can only aspire to reach!  God Bless!

    All PAX lined up with rocks at their feet – Pax on far end pass his rock down the line (initial thought he would run to end of the line to receive rock and the process of passing rocks would continue as next Pax would have already passed their rock and run to the end of the line so Indian Style objective was to be moving all rocks towards the rock pile, again this needs some work but we did achieve the goal – ALL rocks returned.
