  • Loosely borrowed – from Pass Interference

    I’ve made it a habit of piecing together a beatdown by scanning Beatdowns on our website, so why should this be any different? Knowing we had one pax in a long term injury recovery process, and another only joining for the 2nd time, I wanted to make it challenging but not beyond reason.

    So, away we went!

    The warmup:
    – mountain man poopers (since Hogs was here)
    – copperhead squats
    – SSH I think, hard to remember due to lack of sleep

    The thang:
    – First we went near the playgorund, to do a modified “morning call” (which I brought from Badapple AO at #F3Alpha). Instead of everyone doing a set of pullups, I had everyone do dips, while the other pax did merkins, round robin til everyone got their dips in.
    – Then we did a scout run (not sure what to call it), where I had one person run from the playground to the permanent flag in the back of the park, and back, while the other 3 did 5 burpees, 10 squats and 15 big boys. Each man ran and the others completed the exercises.
    – Then it was time to mosy to the trail and do a dora, since there were 4. We split into teams and knocked out 100/200/300 of whatever came to mind at the time.

    Mary followed and we made it out alive!

  • Bring up the 6 – from Hogs Breath

    YHC arrived at the 007, to find Bumper and an Fng doing a pre-thing!
    Pass interference and YHC jumped right in!

    Warm up with some toy soldiers, butt, kickers, arm, circles, and SSH.

    The Thang
    Everything was built around the number 6. We began an Indian run, last man would perform burpees then sprint to the front. We continued for 12 minutes.
    Then mosey over to the playground, one pax would perform six pull-ups, while the other pax performed rest, plank, and LBC.
    There were modifications, but still did amazing and kept up!
    Then back out to the big field, cones were placed out about 40 yds and we performed six sprints, one at a time, while the others performed some exercises again in a rotating fashion.
    The last 12 minutes was the deck of death, 40 seconds on 30 seconds rest. Lather, rinse and repeat.

    During the cot when it came time to name our Fng, he voluntarily told his most embarrassing story. He told us of throwing up at a bachelor party after drinking Crown Royal.
    So Royal Ralph was born!

  • 1/3, 3rd, and Third – from Hogs Breath

    YHC began a rousing journey toward the 007 only to realize that the garage door was left open. Thus so as not to alarm his M, he returned and faithfully closed the door, thus securing his M!
    This did however, make YHC fashionably late to his own Q! So the warm-up was basically skipped…. Albeit Pass Interference was doing his own warmup.

    The Thang
    The beatdown was broken down into thirds. The first third was tabata style approximately 40 seconds on 10 seconds rest utilizing the deck o’death.
    The 2/3 focused on sprinting, one pax would sprint across the field, while the other pax turned over card and performed the displayed excercise. Lather, rinse and repeat for three iterations.
    The last third was a mosey around the park. We finished out with two minutes of Mary.

  • The Fairy Ring – from Akbar

    14 strong today – with a little EH help from Shooter’s backblast – on this wet gloom for a pre Saint Paddy’s day celebration.

    Legend has it that fairy rings were caused by fairies, elves, and Leprechauns dancing in a circle. If humans joined in the dance they would be punished and made to dance in the ring until they passed out from exhaustion – or DIED. In 1518, the French town of Strasbourg experienced it and other outbreaks across Europe happened in the 10th century.

    It is an unsolved public health mystery, and the most recent case showed up in Mandeville, La at the Lakefront beatdown. There were exercises, dancing, moaning, and groaning, and yes – Fairies.

    Pax : Baby Yoda, Waterpik, Pass Interference, Jose 10k, Duke of Hazzard, Wicket, Bushwhacker, The Hammer, Brexit, Bird, Steve, Russo, Shooter, Akbar

    Warm Up: x10 IC: SSH, Windmills, Arm Circles, Swimmers, Backstroke, Overhead Claps, Toe Touches, Grass Grabbers

    Mosey over towards Rips, circle up for instructions.

    The Thang

    6 exercises x 10 OYO – while listening to YHC’s high school playlist, with an Irish jig after each song. When the Irish jig came on we would mosey in a circle until finished, and pick back up where we left off. A non-stop 30 minute beatdown with no breaks.

    The idea was full body on the wall – (Jose10k noted this was mostly upper body). Then lower body on the Irish Jigs. YHC did not do the math, but the Irish Jigs were around 50 seconds, and the other songs were an average of 3.5 minutes.

    Exercises:

    Wide Tempo Merkin, Step Ups (2 is 1), Freak Nasty, Renegade Row, Reverse Grip Irkin, Stone Mountain

    Irish Jig: High knees, Hallelujah runs, lunge walks, runs, butt kicks

    Fairies are Real
    A quarter way through the playlist took on a mind of its own, skipping ahead, playing a song for 3 seconds, then all together stopping. Were the fairies messing with Q? We killed the tunes and pushed forward. With no music, it looked like the scene from Halloween when the prisoners escaped from the loony bin.

    Time called and we moseyed back to the Flag for some leg work.

    3 sets x10 IC of Sister Mary Catherines, Calf Raises, Copperhead Squats

    Mary x10 IC: Freddy Mercury, Hello Dolly, Rosalita, Flutter Kicks, Heels to Heaven, Hummingbirds (100 100’s), LBC’s

    Time called, reverse count, name-o-rama, YHC prayed us out, and we headed to Coffeeteria.

    Thanks for coming out and following the lead.

  • Broga in the park – from Hogs Breath

    Two PAX got out of their fartsacks this morning and arrived at the 007.

    The pre mumblechatter was who would take the Q. Well YHC had a crick in his neck, so yoga was the designated beatdown of the day! Just a few fellows with no formal yoga training, walking through the body from head to toe. Every several minutes, we would break and take a lap. And ended just on time.

    Thank you for the chance to lead these HIM Through a beatdown and COT.

  • 40K LBS for 40th birthday bash – from Hogs Breath

    YHC woke up to the sounds of thunder and lightning.
    The pre-blast had mentioned a ruck prior to the beat down, but the smart thing would be to wait till the lightning pass. So YHC waited some time then arrived at the 007 about 4:50 AM. When all of the sudden Twin Span arrived about five minutes later. The lightning had passed, and the rain was a drizzle. The two yutes got a 1 mile ruck in.
    Then, Bushwacker, Murdoch and Pass Interference all arrived on time.
    In honor of Hog’s Breath upcoming birthday, today’s beat down was a simple 10 x 10 x 10 coupon workout.
    If a typical coupon weighs approximately 40 pounds and multipled by 10 exercises x 10 reps x 10 rounds would mean we would move approximately 40,000 pounds!

    10 curls
    10 overhead press
    10 tricep extension
    10 torso twists
    10 squats
    10 bent over rows
    10 lunges
    10 chest presses.
    10 WWW3 sit ups
    10 calf raises

    We converged underneath of the pavilion to shield us from the rain, played some music and began. The rain escalated several times, and quickly drowned out the sound of any music. We were able to get through 10 rounds!
    T-claps to Murdoch for his first beat down back, after being injured, all pax rallied behind him and helped him finish his 10th round right on time!

    5 packs all got out of their fart sacks, in the rain, to move 40,000 pounds in honor of hog breath 40th birthday!

    Coffeteria followed at Starbucks

  • Return of the Mighty Moby – from Einstein

    Yes indeed, Moby is back after a few week hiatus due to combersome back pain.

    YHC did the warmup and Moby took over the Q with a tabata: 45 seconds on 30 seconds off.
    6 exercise, 4sets: crunches, box cutters, inclined merkins, squats, etc.

    Pass Interference brings in a FNG to the PAX – welcome Spackle

    Moby prayed us out.

  • Squats and Ladders – from Pass Interference

    After an abbreviated warmup, YHC chose three stations for a roundrobin of several exercises increasing by 3 @ each station each round. Merkins, squats, lunges, more merkins, and big boys.

    Then taking a cue from Hogs, we did a slow mosy around the Christmas lights and stopped for squats at Santa’s sleigh, and some other miscellaney until time was called.
