It was very windy gloom in NOLA… Most of the Pax arrived to Okwata like this…
PRE-THANG
Luckily, the PAX arrived in one piece. 7 men gathered ready to get better. However, with a few minutes to spare the QIC was MIA to attend to some business that goes unspoken…. As SHORTY pushed for these Thursday workouts, he and Cowbell were MIA… They were fartsacking in Idaho and also doing this…
WARM-UP
Hopefully OSHA gave the disclaimer for QIC…. PAX moseyed around the fountain and finally QIC joined up for the 1st COP
THE THANG
SSH X 20 IC
IW X 20 IC
Low Slow Squats X 20 IC
Good Mornings X 20 IC
Mountain Climbers X 20 IC
Burpees X 5 OYO
Mosey to the top of the levee behind the fountain for QIC’s “Football Runs”. The PAX started by running towards Canal Blvd. for 10 seconds, then stop and run down the levee. There we alternated between 10 Merks and 10 LBCs. Then run on the bottom of the levee for 10 seconds and run back to the top. Rinse and Repeat until the PAX reached Canal Blvd. Once there, plank up for the Pax. T-Claps to Bubba for counting out loud.
Once the PAX was accounted for, we moseyed down the lakefront for a while to a nice parking lot…There the PAX completed COP #2
Kareoke for approximately 40 yards, followed by Back peddle runs, Sprints, and a Slow Mosey to another parking lot for 6MOM and COP#3
Flutter Kicks X 20 IC
LBCs X 20 IC
Dying Cockroach X 20 IC
Russian Twist X 20 IC
Mosey back to Canal Blvd. and the Lakefront to grab some ledge. The PAX didn’t like this due to the crashing 40 foot waves (as so it seemed) and felt like this….
Here we performed COP #4. QIC wanted to perform these IC, but due to the waves PAX completed these OYO
R Leg Step Ups X 15 OYO
Dips X 15 OYO
L Leg Step Up X 15 OYO
Dips X 15 OYO
As it was getting close to the end of QIC’s VQ, the PAX moseyed towards the flag and then suddenly QIC saw something in the sky… The PAX began some mumble chatter and claimed it was the moon or the stars or some planet, but QIC said it was a BLIMP! So, here we performed COP #5
B – Burpees X 5 OYO
L – Lunges (Alternating legs) X 10 OYO
I – Imperial Walkers X 15 OYO
M – Merkins X 20 OYO
P – Plank Jacks X 25 OYO
S – Squats X 30 OYO
As the time was closing in, we performed our last COP in honor of Shorty
Calf Raises X 20 IC
R Calf Raises X 10 IC
L Calf Raises X 10 IC
Whe QIC looked at his watch it was 0615 and his VQ was in the books!
Name-O-Rama
7 Men got better today and the PAX grew by 1 with the addition of FNG – Fountain. T-Claps for completing the workout.
Shout Out
Multiple intensions for the PAX family and friends. Also for the safe travels for all during the Mardi Gras season. T-Claps to Bubba leading us in prayer.
Hotty Toddy’s VQ in the books (sorry for the more than a week late post!)
HT-Out
Nice BB and it looked like a great workout.. Cowbell did leave his panda suit in Idaho… Looks like we have to go back now!
Congrats HT. Looks like it was a great workout. I heard the city turned the fountain on for your VQ, is that true?
Haha, that’s funny Shorty! I can imagine Cowbell doing exactly what the panda is doing.
Hawg, yes they have the fountain on. But, since Mardi Gras is over, not sure if they turned it off!
