  • No cars were damaged & Frac possibly broke a sweat – from Hokie

    At 0600 YHC noticed no one had signed up to Q either workout in New Orleans so I took Mothership and took a quick “minute” to decide, based on recent broken windows how to protect our cars.

    We gathered at our normal spot and did a minute each of warm ups with Slow Vigodas followed by grass grabbers and Imperial Walkers.

    We then moseyed about 20 yards towards the peristyle and specifically to 4 sets of benches with two pax per bench.

    With the continued theme of these thugs taking less than a minute to break into cars, we would do the following for one minute each

    First evolution – legs!

    1. L leg step ups
    2. R leg step ups
    3. L leg Bulgarian split squats
    4. Surprise… R L BSS
    5. Bobby Harley’s…
    6. Monkey Humpers
    7. L leg forward lunges
    8. R leg forward lunges
    9. L leg backward lunges
    10. R leg backward lunges

    At this point, my quads were already feeling the leg focus but Frac was complaining he wasn’t sweating and the ladies in the peristyle were working harder than we were, YHC did not allow the Mumblechatter to distract than plan so we did a rinse and repeat to focus on legs for this 1st evolution.

    Next a Tabata with …. ONE MINUTE of work and 15 seconds of rest and the goal was for the Pax to work for the entire minute in each of the 10 rounds. 10 rounds of 1 FULL minute of burpees followed 15 seconds of rest was the plan but modifications seemed to be the plan of most Pax

    Next evolution…. SHOUKDERS

    Another Tabata EASING up on the Pax so only 45 seconds of work and 15 seconds of rest…

    1. Hindu Merkins
    2. Mountain climbers
    3. T—Merkins
    4. Shoulder Taps
    5. Angle grinders

    Rinse & Repeat

    Last evolution

    Only 30 seconds of work, 15 seconds of rest
    10 Rounds
    Burpees

    Thanks for allowing me to Q. Sorry it was too soft. 😜

    Keep Brushburn in your prayers during the battle he is in at the moment. Let’s pray the Lord guides him into peace and joy.

  • Rock City Answers The Belle – from Hawgcycle

    Conditions: Clear and 77 degrees. Humidity 87%. Wind 2.3 mph from the WNW.

    Pax: The Bogé, Charmin, Hokie, Rudy, Triple, Boo, HG, Cyber C, and YHC

    I’m using text to speech to write this back blast cents I can’t move my harms. My farms. My alarms. Delete. Backspace. BACKSPACE. Okay. Just start over. Leeland! Come here. How do I turn this off? Never mind. Stop laughing at me. You have milk coming out your nose. Just wipe your face and go to school. New Paragraph.

    Hokie clearly became board during the first 3 quarters of the Saints game, as he texted me regarding the set-up for this week’s IPC. He told me what the challenge was, that setting it up as a star was stupid and then he texted “Are you stupid?” I texted “I’m not stupid.”

    Charmin’s car was there when I pulled up at about 0515. I think he may have slept there. We walked up together with our cinderblocks coming upon a mass of humanity, lying on the sidewalk, shaped like a pretzel. We told The Bogé hello as we stepped over him. One by one pax members came to a cinder block workout without cinder blocks. The requirements for an F3 workout could not be much lower. It’s free, you do have to leave your house and go outside, and about twice per year you need to bring something to the workout. Fortunately our resident boy scout had a couple of PainCakes that he donated to a couple of pax and then walked to the rock pile so that he could do the workout au natural.

    The Thang: Belle Ringer
    Format: AMRAP for 45 minutes

    Set-Up: Make a 5-point star with each point of the star being 25 yards away from the center. Scratch that. Set Up: Mark of 25 yards from the goal line and tell people to remember the order of the exercises and don’t get in each other’s way.

    Workout starts with:
    • 5 ManMakers in the middle. Rifle carry to cone 2 and perform 10 “We’re Not Worthy”. Farmer carry back to center.
    • 5 ManMakers/Blockees in middle. Rifle carry to cone 3 and perform 15 Goblet Squats. Farmer carry back to center.
    • 5 ManMakers/Blockees in middle. Rifle carry to cone 4 and perform 20 Overhead Triceps Extensions. Farmer carry back to center.
    • 5 ManMakers/Blockees in the middle. Rifle carry to cone 5 and perform 25 KB Swings. Farmer carry back to center.
    • 5 ManMakers/Blockees in the middle. Rifle carry to cone 5 and perform 30 Curls. Farmer carry back to middle.

    Scoring: Total reps for 45 minutes of the exercises

    Each complete trip is 125 reps

    • T-claps to Cyber Cajun for vowing to arrive early today and executing. He was a little late to last week’s IPC. We talked about the importance of getting there early since everyone is going to want to start at 0530. He arrived at least 15 seconds before this one started.
    • Mahatma was a no-show. The rumor was that he was looking for a cinder block that weighed more than 10 pounds. He finally found one, but was unable to lift it into his truck.
    • T-Claps to Rudy for Marshalling enough courage to show up this morning.
    • The variety of coupons used today was impressive. We had three or four actual cinder blocks. We had a couple of PainCakes. There was the natural rock. And Triple Shift brought a bag of laundry that he swears weighs 45 pounds.
    • We helped each other calculate the results since there was some difficult mathematical concepts involved. Hand Grenada proved that Arkansas is at least 49th in education. Bogey came over and let him use his fingers. After staring at my feet for a while, they still couldn’t come up with the correct number. I fixed it for them below. Without further ado here are the results. Remember, you can post these on F3 Greenville’s site if you want to see how ridiculous other people’s numbers are.

    o Charmin – 375
    o Rudy – 375
    o Triple – 373
    o Hokie – 275 + a long mosey with rock to and from the rock pile
    o Boo – 375
    o Cyber – 300
    o HG – 410
    o The Bogé – 395
    o YHC – 430

  • 11 is the Devil’s Favorite Number – from Bolt

    As 5:30 struck and there’s no Bogey, YHC grabbed the opportunity to lead the workout he thought was supposed to b his until checking the Q sheet the night before.

    Warmorama of the usual stuff followed by a mosey to the rock pike where PAX were instructed to grab a rock they could curl and tricep press. Make our way to the parking area for an easy plan with challenging execution, 11s: 8 count full body rock work (squat, curl, overhead press, tricep press then reverse) on one end followed by a 25 yd. bear crawl with burpees at the end and a mosey return. With the lack of mumblechatter and plenty of grunting from Triple, YHC can assume the PAX were treated to a solid beatdown worthy of El Diablo and discovers that 11 is, in fact, the devil’s favorite number.
