  • Two Parking Garages and….

    Beautiful cool morning no excuse to fart sack today other than the “on your own stylings of 86”.

    Started with a mosey to the benches by the large parking garage and partnered up.

    One partner ran to the top of the larger parking garage (West rd side) performed 20 x burpees  then came back down the stairs.

    The other partner ran to the top of the smaller garage(Freret st side) and performed 20 x walk out merkins to t-frame then came back down the stairs.

    Then the partners switched and ran the opposite garage and performed the corresponding exercise.

    When done both partners returned to the benched and performed 20 x step ups, then 100 lbcs until the  arrived.

    Then on your own:

    20 x dips

    20 x decline merkins

    20 x shoulders taps

    Then slow mosey to the big parking garage and partnered up again.

    One partner ran up stairs to the top and performed 30 x crab toe touches while partner at the bottom of the garage did yoga squats.  Then partners switched.

    Mosey to the Loyola lawn:

    Ring of Fire:

    5 x burpees while everyone held an Al Gore

    10 x wide merkins while everyone held plank

    15 x jumping squats while everyone held squat position

    Mosey to the flag.

    Count off, name-o-rama, prayer.

    One FNG today and he mentioned that he worked with lubricants so Seaman donned the name KY.  Now tinkles might have competition for most apropos name.

    Thank you,

    Repeating until partner returns then switching.

    This is where the modify happened, I was not clear on which pull up bar to go to so everyone went the the one by the flag as I went to the one around the track (valuable lesson be more explicit and try not to get too creative).

    Vader gave us a 20 count then we performed pick your poison mary.(everyone picked an exercise and did a 10 count(9 count) on each exercise.

  • St Patrick’s Day Pre-Mudder Non Yoga On Your Own Workout

    When I arrived JV told me that Pontiff was doing yoga today as preparation for the mudder tomorrow.  I really wish I had the foresight to think of that but oh well, I am worse at yoga than counting.

    We started out with a mosey in the direction of Cooter Browns, in the St Patrick’s Day Spirit, but I thought better of that so we proceeded to the pull up bars on Ferret.

    Split into 3 groups:

    Round 1

    10 pull ups for the count

    merkins to shoulder taps

    squats to seated on the ledge

    Round 2

    10 leg raises for the count

    dips

    monkey humpers

    Mosey to the parking garage:

    Partnered up:

    Round 1

    partner ran to top of the garage then 20 burpees and returned down the nearest stairs

    other partner did traveling walk outs alternating between:

    10 imperial walker squats

    10 merkins

    10 air press

    then we switched

    Round 2

    partner ran of opposite stairs to the top and did 10 v-up and returned down closest stairs

    other partner performed:

    50 lbc

    50 flutter kicks

    50 dying cockroaches

    then we switched

    Mosey to the flag, count off, name-o-rama, prayer.  No counting was butchered or awkward yoga poses performed…

     

    Thanks,

  • Chili’s Didn’t Strike Back VQ

     

    Friday November 11 at Wolfpack Mountain and the morning was nice and cool and I was out on my VQ.  I made a point not to eat at Chili’s, since that took me out on my first scheduled VQ.

    Started out on a mosey down St Charles then began our warm up.

    • SSH x 20 IC
    • IW x 20 IC
    • Peter Parkers x 20 IC
    • Seal Jacks x 20 IC
    • Shoulder Taps x 20 IC
    • Burpees x 10 on your own

    I realized I can’t count to 3 or have much rhythm after the warm up so we proceeded to the Parking Garage.  We ran up the garage and performed Squats x 10 at first landing, then Merkins x 10 at second landing, then Side Lunges x 10 at third landing and repeated until we reached the top.

    At the top we had a 20 count then we performed

    • LBC x 20
    • Russian Twist x 10
    • Dying Cockroach x 10

    Then ran down stairs to next floor and POW ran up to top floor repeating twice.

    After two sets we had a 20 count then Indian Run to the bottom of the garage and met up at the benches outside the garage.

    At the benches we performed the following:

    • Incline Merkins x 15 IC
    • Right Leg Step Up x 20 IC
    • Dips x 15 IC
    • Left Leg Step Up x 20 IC
    • Decline Merkins x 10 (on your own)

    Mosey to the flag and then plank o rama, count off, name o rama and prayer.

    Survived first Q and learned a few important things:

    1. Don’t eat at Chili’s…..Ever
    2. Counting to 3 and exercising is very difficult
    3. I have 0 to none rhythm

    Thanks,
