  • BOMBS & POMS – from Kilo

    A little stolen BD this morning from the PAX in JAX

    0530: disclaimer given
    0531: mosey started to the W-O-R
    SSH, TIE Fighters forward and reverse, HB, and IW, finish with the Vagabond Sunrise

    Mosey to the parking lot, quite a bit of grumbles about the amount of moseying down already… partner up and on to the THANG

    BOMBS – burpees, overhead claps (in a deep squat), merkins, big boys, and squats: 50, 100, 150, 200, 250
    Pax take turns running to the light pole that was illuminated with a plane directly over it and back. Some chasing and sprinting was done so as to keep up the spirits.

    POMS – plank, reverse plank (aka Overhand Plank), merkins, squat hold all for 20 count by the resting Pax

    Mosey back to the W-O-R spot for some broga and MC’s sprinkled in

    COT: gratitude for all that the Sky Q has done for us this week and for a successful Leg Quarter Cook-off tomorrow

  • Gotcha – from Hawgcycle

    Warm-up: SSH, IW, GG, Merkins, Bobby Hurly
    On the line: open the gate, close the gate, high knees, butt kicks, scoops

    Mosey to Gym:

    Gotcha – 1 line at the 3 point line. First two pax have a ball. Pax 1 shoots a 3. If he doesn’t make it he gets his own rebound and tries to score before pax 2 scores. If he doesn’t he’s out. Continue until one man left. There was a way to buy back in.

    Buy-in #1 – 30 Abe Lincolns, 60 Monkey Humpers, 90 Big Bois

    As predicted by Mayhem, the buy in was too steep. Although a couple of us came close.

    The Architect won the first game and pretended to do squats while the losers finished up.

    We reduced the buy-in for game two. Fast Tax and YHC got back in to be quickly dismissed once again.

    Buy-in #2 – 20 Big Bois, 40 Monkey Humpers, 60 Abe Lincolns

    I assume The Architect won again. It was him and Mayhem at the end, but I was too busy to pay attention.

    We took a break from basketball to do some
    wall work – BTW. Chicken Peckers, BTW, Pecker Chickens, BTW, Pecker Mayhem

    We then divided up into 3 teams of 3. Teams 1 and 2 play a game of 3 on 3 sudden death wile Team 3 does 10 merkins, 10 Bobby Hurleys, 10 Big Bois, in perpetuity. The losing team swaps with the team doing exercises.

    We made it through three games and headed back to the flag

    NMM
    * There are two kinds of people in the world. Those that enjoy having fun occasionally and Mr. Rogers
    * Speaking of everyone’s favorite neighbor, I did Q a workout that made him remove the weight vest. That feels almost as good as making an FNG puke. I consider it a badge of honor.
    * My shot was off. Must have been the wind
    * At first I was skeptical of Mahyems 10-count hip-slap, shoulder-tap merkin. I’m now fully on board having developed what I have now decided to call the Pecker Mayhem. This will prove to be the pinnacle of Mayhemdom

  • The Daniel – from Kilo

    YHC woke up ready to Q, ready to pick up the pace to get through this week and ready to honor one of our fallen heroes. Inspired by The Architect’s callout a few weeks ago to Q more this was my 2nd Q in as many weeks. And so on the Eve of El Diablo, YHC did what all good non professional trainers do… googled “hero workouts” and scrolled a little bit until the Daniel popped up. The PAX came out from the gloom, some in cars, some on foot coffee in hand, some on bikes and we began the Thang.

    The THANG:

    WOR: SSH, GG, Hillbilly’s, Slow Pagodas, Imperial Walkers, and finished with some TIE Fighters

    @ the Playground
    5 Rounds: 10 pull-ups, 10 merkins, hold a plank and rotate

    Mosey to the track for a 400 m Washington Football Team Run

    Rock Pile Partners: 10 thrusters, merkins, 11 thrusters, merkins

    Mosey to the track for 800 m on your own

    Different partners: 10 squats, merkins, 11 squats, merkins

    Started a Washington Football Team run but cut it short, PAX were beginning to think something was wrong with YHC… moseyed to a wide spot in the road,

    20 count merkin Ring of Fire
    Broga
    10 count merking Ring of Fire (lest Vagabond not feel like he was exercising)

    Finished with COT: Gratitude for community of F3

  • The Metry H8! – PRACTICE – from Mayhem

    YHC was caught by the train, but still able to plant the flag by 5:28
    74 F & 93% RH

    Party of 10 excited to see what was in store
    8 to the field and 2 KnOT’ing on the track, we’d see them later

    Warmup consisted of the norm: Slow AV, Soggy GG, MC, PPP, TF, FT, SSH

    The H8! is returning to #okwata October 24th, so YHC thought it would be good to get some practice in @pontiff

    5 rounds of The Metry H8! (we’ll shoot for 8 before game time)

    We started on the south side of the bleachers. At the start, you do a descending burp and merk pyramid starting at 5 (burpee and 5 hand release merkins, burpee and 4 hand release merkins… burpee and 1 hand release merkin).

    Each lap consists of running north snaking the bleachers to the far side, bear crawling to the steps of the gym, make a lap around the gym, bear crawling back to the north side of the bleachers, snaking the bleachers back to the starting point on the south side. Rinse and repeat.

    • Run nearly 2 miles of bleachers/stairs
    • 350 yards of bear crawls
    • 15 burpees
    • 35 merkins

    Picked up the SIX. Did some Mary. Head to the flag.

  • The Laredo Redux – from Fracsac

    The Site Q at El Diablo has set the precedence to have a hero WOD to honor those who have paid the ultimate price. After a brief disclaimer and a warmup, YHC complied with the following:

     6 rounds for time
    24 air squats
    24 push-ups
    24 walking lunges
    400m run
    With about 10 minutes remaining, move to the parking lot for burpee broad jumps and some Mary.

    COT

    NMM

    The Laredo

    While serving in Afghanistan, Army Staff Sgt. Edwardo Loredo died on June 24, 2010, when insurgents attacked with an IED. Loredo previously served in Iraq. Hence the 6/24.

    The pax crushed it with time left over. They had the choice of bear crawl between burpees or burpee broad jumps. Roughly about 15 or so completed.

    Unbeknownst to YHC, this WOD was completed a few weeks ago. We honored this fallen warrior twice.
