  • Filling the Void – from Mahatma

    Got a call from Minuterice asking what AO YHC was heading to so we could meet up. After a quick check of the Q sheet there was a Void at El Diablo so I figured it was a good opty to Co-Q as team “rice”!

    Minuterice gave some recommendations then decided he would take the warm up which consisted of several dynamic style stretch and leg exercises to get us going. After roughly 7 minutes he passed it on.

    Off to the bleachers – push up climb then crawl down to snake run the bleachers from right to left side finishing with 3 burpees – hold plank until 6 was in plank add 30 seconds finish with 5 Merkins

    Move to the gym wall:
    2 rounds of the running man to rail squats
    2 rounds of 20 second balls to the wall

    Move to the playground:
    3 rounds of pull ups: 3,6,9 reps each followed by a run to the tennis court 5,10,15 Merkins then a lap around the court. If you were there you’ll understand.

    Dr W’s (not new to all)
    Elevated V’s – in the sitting position hands behind head raise legs to touch feet
    Same position – alternate left hand Tks rht foot then flip flop
    Same position raise hands straight over head – bring knees to upward tuck while bring hands down to tap knee
    Kick stand position brings knees up to chest then extend out gas pump to a V

    Move to front of gym quick push up ladder to top of stairs then back down.
    Someone was carrying a creature inside themselves that was let loose and just about killed the pax
    Reverse bearcrawl up the stairs bearcrawl down

    Move to the parking lot – line up left to right bearcrawl our 15 yards – 3 burpees Reverse bearcrawl another 15 yards – 5 burpees sprint back to a plank position to recover “actively”

    Line up – Indian Run back to the flag

    Finished with

    Mr Rogers – Shoulder taps
    BooBoo – single leg wife pleasers

  • Descend the Ladder con Roca – from Bolt

    Warmorama of the usual; Vagabond erroneously thought Kenna Brah had the Q and I’m sure regretted showing up for another of my musically schizophrenic playlists.
    The Thang: Descending Ladder with a rock (10 reps/exercise down to 9, 8, etc. reps/exercise): Squat (coupon), OH press, Curls, chest press, tricep press.
    Begin at first tree along side the parking lot facing the gym (it was here that Mahatma took off to second tree to do exercise one—not the directions!), Carry rock to second tree for second exercise where we all paid five burpee penalty for the transgression.

    At fifth tree plank on the six, turnaround and head back the opposite way with one less rep/exercise finishing at starting point. Rinse/repeat until we’ve descended the ladder.

    It was prior to starting round six that I introduced the skip exercise rule: call out, “skip” and roll Deca die of pain for our fate that replaces the skipped exercise, advance to next tree and resume the ladder. Mr. Rogers went first, followed by several others; we did ultimately finish the ladder in time to return rocks and circle up at the flag for Rochamburpee until time: winner does five merkins, loser does three burpees.

    Honored to lead and totally spent; this one sucked. COT.
