  • Minivans and the Manly Men Who Drive Them – from Charmin

    A call was issued forth somewhat last minute by YHC for an OTB and unusual workout. The goal was to get various boxes and book cases into the M’s classroom on the second floor. Rev Sox, not only was the only HIM to heed the call, but also brought his minivan. With the two minivans, a closet full of boxes were transported in only one trip. Once at the school Rev Sox and YHC effortlessly hoisted the boxes up to the second floor and the beatdown was over as quickly as it began.

    Some may choose to use two men and a truck, but the wise know to use two (or more HIMs) and minivans.

  • Tuesday Trifecta – from Bolt

    Three options for the pax: Pai Gow sprinting, Scantron KnOT, Bolt S&M

  • Can I get the Instructions Again? – from Architect

    Let the KOT folks get on with their routine, then gathered the PAX for some warm-ups and stretching. Proceeded to induce confusion early on which lingered throughout the workout.

    Everyone grabbed their favorite rock, and we made our way to the parking lot. I provided as much clarity as possible as we went through some suicides with and without the rock. FNG showed up late, but jumped right in. PAX felt guilty and grumbled that no one brought an extra rock to share.

    We moseyed over to the Hill, and capped the workout with some 11’s accompanied by OHP at the top.

    Ended with more confusion in the COT, but was finally able to get FNG a shiny new name, Radiohead.

  • All the Parts 6/12/23 – from Bolt

    Warmorama of the usual but almost with the wrong song—corrected, commence, complete. 

    The Thang: Plank hurdles the length of the football field. Circle up past the goal post for musically directed work…
    Danger Zone: SSH the entire song except, squat 1x on title words. Starts as a cake walk, ends as a barely can walk. Mosey to playground and plank along edging for Morning Call (really wicked with 12 pax; modify to two groups of six next time???). 

    Mosey to rock pile for medium rocks and all the parts (lower body, upper body, abs):
    Curls, LBCs, reverse lunge, protractors, tricep press, O rings, wife pleasers, Yang squats. There were several 5 burpee tolls paid to skip songs, mainly at War Eagle’s hand (for those who don’t know, War Eagle is practically a Kotter and when he does post, he likes to complain about being there for a real workout while not actually working out…). Back to the flag for COT with the KnOT group. Two DR: Cliff Notes (79!), Cousin Eddie.

  • Rucking, Running, and knees over toes (oh my!) – from Charmin

    Bolt pushed us ruckers to a pace of 16:52. The runners did whatever it is they do, and the kots guys were late (what’s new lol).

    Cot was about loving our loved ones while we can.

  • Birthday Q with no Plans – from Pillsbury

    It was a not so humid morning with a tad breeze. I woke up later than expected, but arrived at the AO at 5:10am. I made my rounds to locate spots for our unplanned work out and hoped that I could come up with something worth it that could challenge everyone.

    At 5:30 I announced I was the Q explained I was not a professional! No feet in mouth this time.

    Some of us mosey over to the football for warm ups the rest hit the track for knees over toes

    Warm o Rama

    30 side straddle hops
    30 lbc’s
    30 grass crabbers
    20 mountain climbers
    20 Abe Vigoda
    20 forward arm circles
    20 reverse arm circles
    20 over head claps

    Mosey over to rock pile and pick a medium rock. Since it’s Monday and that means ROCK CITY, all of the following dealt with rocks.

    5 stations each
    advancement you added another 10 reps each station, which ended in total 150 reps. Sounded better in my head than actually trying to do them. Made adjustments to 5 instead of 10.

    150 overhead press
    150 curls
    150 rolls
    150 chest press
    150 big boy sit-up without rock

    Mosy back to rock pile and walk backwards to home base. Hopefully everyone received a well balanced workout this AM!
