Grandmas house looking for some throws on this Mardi Gras Gloom. Q decided to throw some new trinkets on this day for the dedicated men who decided to post… With a cold 34 degrees and a north wind đź’¨ YHC arrived to a ghost town at the Trailhead. Not knowing if anyone would post, Qs hopes were quickly lifted as the sight of headlights started rolling in from all directions. PAX quickly swelled to 6 with the late arrival of one masked Bushwacker with only eyes and lips showing..
Circled under the breezeway for the warmup, which consisted of some new exercises not demonstrated by any other PAX to the Qs knowledge. Started with the traditional SSH IC 20, Hillbillies IC 20, Imperial Stormkickers (could not get the cadence) OYO to around 15, Febreze (2:10,4:20,6:30,8:40,10:50) first number big boy sit-up followed by feet 6 inches off the ground with second number air presses, concluded with Donkey Kick-offs (Plank position with kicks to 5 on the pillars with a 5 sec hold, R/R 10 kicks 10 sec hold, 15 kicks 15 sec hold) plenty warm by this point..
Thang
PAX assembled on Girard street for Four corners Escalator. C-1 10 Burpees, Mosey C-2 10 Burpees 20 Merkins, Mosey C-3 10 Burpees 20 Merkins 30 Mountain Climbers, Mosey C-4 10 Burpees 20 Merkins 30 Mountain Climbers 40 Shoulder taps.. With the sounds of grunts and groans replacing what would surly be the rumbling of tubas and trumpets as if marching down St Charles, Q calls for (2) 10 counts by Steve and Bushwacker.. Having destroyed the upper half, we turned and de-escalated to grind out the bottom half. Moseyed. C-1 10 Jump Squats, Moseyed C-2 10 Jump Squats 20 Lunges, Moseyed C-3 10 Jump Squats 20 Lunges 30 Squats, Moseyed C-4 10 Jump Squats 20 Lunges 30 Squats 40 Sumo Squats.. With the PAX finishing faster then anticipated, YHC had to react with quick thoughts to finish this carnival ride. Q moseyed the PAX back to the breezeway for the close. Partnered up, P1 did core work while P2 sprinted half of the breezeway up the steps and around the tower flap jacking. Core consisted of Plank, Right arm high/Left arm high, Chillcut, Misson Impossible, LBCs, Hello Dollies and Rosalitas..
Circled for count, announce, COT.
Water Pic returning from a guest post in Tallahassee shared that the PAX recites the Pledge at their AOs. We installed the same at Grandmas House on this Gloom.
Appreciate The HAMMER for praying out the PAX!!!
All 6 PAX gathered at the Waffe House for some F2 and reminiscing about the 80s and 90s programming. Talks of “Revenge of the Nerds 2” some “SNL” chatter and how Eddie Murphy saves the day.. But one that clearly stood out to the Q, The HAMMER mentioned the radio station WTIX and how they use to play 50s and 60s, but a recent tune in revealed that “Jesse’s girl” is now considered an oldie.. Whoa!!!
The PAX all allowed that to sink in for a moment, then we continued some great F2.
Appreciate the recommendation Water Pic of some coffateria after our beatdown on this local holiday. YHC enjoys the time shared with positive men looking to become better physically but ultimately better internally as stated on a recent 43 feet podcast with Dredd…
Thank you for the chance to lead and ✌🏻 till the next Gloom!!
