  • A Well Thought Out & Executed Fountain Beatdown – from Da Parish

    YHC is well known for his well-planned and thoughtful beatdowns. This would be nondifferent.
    W/U – Lap around Mardi Gras Fountain and circle up in the lawn.
    • SSH
    • IW
    • HB
    • AC
    • MC
    The Thang
    • Mosey around Mardi Gras Fountain. Pick out a plaque and remember it. Circle back up on the lawn where the Q will ask you which Krewe you have chosen. The Q will then conduct an exercise that begins with the same letter as that Krewe. Since YHC has a vast knowledge of the Exicon, this would prove to be so simple that even the freshest of PAX could do it. Right?
    • Line up on the light post on the Lake for BLIMPS. Suicide to each blue light post and back performing the exercise and increasing in increments of 10 for each light post (Big Boy Sit Up, Lunge, Imperial Walker, Merkin, Plank Jacks, Squats)
    • Circle on the Lake for Mary
    Counterama, Namerama, COT
    NMS – Welcomed an FNG, Yezzy and congratulations on your upcoming bundle of joy.
    Thank you for the opportunity to lead,

  • How does running get you swole? – from Belloq

    I knew this morning would be amazing with a temp of 47° and what felt like 100% humidity. So, I would have to extend the warm-up and keep our bodies moving today to make it enjoyable for all.
    To kick off my first Q at Swolefest, YHC started the disclaimer at exactly 5:29 in
    order to give everyone their money’s worth of a full 45 minutes. Of course, in true F3NOLA fashion, immediately there was debate if it was 5:28 or 5:29.

    The warm-up

    With my disclaimer even briefer than originally planned, I announced we would start with a mosey to begin our warmup. This was met with groans and other sounds of pleasure from those in attendance. Catfish asked, “How does running get you swole?” I should have replied that we are all already swole and needed some cardio, but I didn’t have enough coffee at that point.
    After the mosey, we started our warmup with all below IC
    SSH x 31
    Arm Circles Front X 15
    Arm Circles Back X 15
    Overhead Claps X 30
    Seal Claps X 30-something
    Moroccan Night Club X 10

    10 Burpees OYO

    YHC asked if everyone was warm and Catfish politely noted that his lower extremities were still in need of warm ups so we continued with
    Lunges IC X 20
    Low Slow Squats IC X 10 with coupon

    The Thang
    Paired off for:
    Dora 1-2-3
    100 curls
    200 Overhead Presses
    300 Rows

    When completed, we started 8-counts with coupons while waiting for the 6.

    Cool down

    Started our cool down with 10 burpees OYO
    Then with coupon we held in mid-curl until everyone had their coupons in hand we did two cycles of:
    10 Curls IC
    10 Overhead Presses IC
    10 Squats

    Mary
    Started our core with 10 flutter bricks (kicks) then 5 minutes of abs:
    Halos clockwise for 30s
    Halos counter-clockwise for 30s
    Corkscrew twist 60s
    Dynamic Plank 60s
    Chainsaw 60s
    Big Boy Sit-ups Slow controlled 60s.

    COT
    Count off, Name-O- Rama, Prayer

    As always, it is an honor and privilege to lead a workout. Thank you for sharing this morning with me.
