  • Swinger in Da House – from King Kong

    Thunderstorms passed through last night. I woke up to a wet, cool April morning with low humidity. Rain had stopped around 6 a.m., and the sun was creeping up. What a beautiful morning!!! We saw a white minivan pulling up to the parking lot with an unfamiliar face. His name is Swinger from down range Houston (Sugarland). He’s called Swinger because he swing dances. But we all thought he lied about the origin of his name.

    We started off with warm-ups: Self-Love, Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Hill Billies, Arm Circles, Slow Low Squats, Halos, Bottle Caps, and Around the World.

    The Thang 1 OYO:
    10 single handed curls
    10 single handed rows
    10 Lunges with bells (2 is 1)
    10 burpees jump over

    15 triceps extensions
    15 two handed rows
    15 Leg raises with the bells
    Bear crawl to the parking lot and back

    20 overhead presses
    20 kettle bell swings
    20 goblet squats
    Overhead carry to the parking lot and back

    The Thang 2 in cadence:
    Rinse and repeat all the exercises above. Except this time, we did everything in cadence.

    The Thang 3:
    Dora 1, 2, 3
    100 curls, 200 kettle bell taps, 300 flutter kicks with the bell
    While one pax was doing the exercise, the other pax was carrying his bell to the park lot and back. (dealer’s choice – could be overhead carry, suitcase carry, etc.)

  • Here’s Johnny!

    YHS is back! Excited to be free of the mesh restrictions I was ready to join the Pax and get back on it. When the Q decided to Fartsack it, an FNG at the flag, YHS was ready roll, we needed a TYHAC!

    Warm up of SSH X 21, Peter Parker x 21, Mountain Climber x21, and Forward and Reverse Arm Circles

    Mosey to row bars:

    Pax broke into 4 groups doing lunges, low slow squates, monkey humpers, with Rows as count of 15.

    Mosey to a nice glade were we did Jack Webbs 1:2 reaching 11 Mericans

    Two column Indian Run to the benches
    RLS x21, Dips x 21, LLS x21, Dips x21, RLPU x 21, LLPU x11

    Back to the track where we lunged for 2 running men, sprinted for 2, lunged one more and sprint to Circle of Mary T-Box where an unglorious combination of Holly Dolly x10, Pickle Pounders x10, Box Cutters x10 and LBCs x10

    Best effort mosey to the Pull Up bars for a max effort on the bars then on to the circle to arrive at precisely 6:15

    We had an FNG who had been EH’d by NipTuck who was supposed to Q but has now taken the title as Queen of the FartSack! I couldn’t find the right lexicon for this but Peppa pointed out this was Blue Falcon moment for sure!

    Until he introduced himself, TYHAC was to be his name but the FNG announced his birth name as Raoul. This brought back a rush of vivid memories of the 1982 movie Eating Raoul, where a couple kills swingers to get a downpayment on their house. So Raoul is now known as Swinger amongst us.
