  • Slow & Steady Up The Mountain

    “It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.” – Sir Edmund Percival Hillary

    12 men were ready to go at 5:30. After a brief stop on the lush Loyola grass, 10 MCs & 10 MCMs, we headed to the base of the mountain:

    Two Line Indian Run to the 3rd level – nice of El Wire, YSR & Yank to join us – followed by 10 MCM (3rd floor)

    SSH Jumps up the mountain followed by 10 Burpees

    Lunge Indian Run then 10 MCMs (4th floor)

    Plank Broad Jumps then 10 Burpees

    Slalom Al Gores then 10 MCMs (5th Floor)

    Indian Run Bear Crawls while LBCing then 10 Burpees

    Slalom Al Gores then 10 MCMs (6th Floor)

    Indian Run Backwards Crab Walks

    Lastly after a quick peek at the skyline we finished with 10 Burpees (top floor)

    2 minutes to spare, down the stairs and back to the flag

    Count-off, name-o-rama & some brief thanks

    Good times…

     

  • Madness in the Gloom

    It was a true cinderella story! The dream of young men and old men aspiring to greatness coming true! To rise before the sun. To journey out into the damp gloom, a dampness that foreshadows summers brutal heat that hammers us with the heat of Hephaestus’ forges! Yes it was that kind of morning!

    Seizing the moment that I dreamt of, yhs launched the pax into the gloom;

    First Preal
    Imperial Walker x21
    SSH (obligatory) x21

    Hilly Billy x21

    Back to the track and to the Row Bars
    Count was 20 Rows
    Group of Lunges
    Group of Hello Dollies
    Group of Parker Peters
    Rinse and Repeat!

    Back to the track for Catch Me If You Can / Indian Run. Dividing the Pax into 2 columns last man did 10 Mericans to sprint up back to the pax, tagging last man to drop, while continuing on to the front.

    At the benches for some classic Tinkles
    Declined Mericans x10 immediately followed by 10 shoulder taps.
    RL & LL step ups x22 each
    Dips x15

    Something ab related
    And since no one could think of something better we had to do Burpees!

    On to the circle.

  • Record Breaking Workout

    A record 26 PAX showed up Wednesday morning to the heavy, humid smell of duck shit. We ran quickly from that spot in order to introduce the PAX to some special hip-loosening yoga stretches. Seaman got a little too excited about these and had to be publicly asked to stop the #mumblechatter. Yankee rolled in hot, as usual, and caught up in time for some downward dog action. From there we took with some run/sprints, burpees, then some BrownBag special – defensive basketball slides. We stopped at the fountain for some power-ups, etc., then continued the run around the park to our soft, special, wet golf course green. BrownBag whipped out another special with some Climate Change – PAX in the Al Gore, tree-hugging position. We finished off with some more run/sprints before being welcomed back to base with the comforting smell of duck shit once again.

  • That’s Right, One More Time…

    Pre Thang: YHC arrived a little early in case the rumors were true and it would be necessary to work out the logistics of dragging around a news crew, but alas they never showed up…  However, the pax seemed to never stop coming. At 05:30, after the disclaimer we moseyed out and around to the front of TU where the last of 23 pax joined us.

    The Thang: Warmup COP– SSH, Mtn Climber, Imp Walker, Peter Parker x 25 and 10 Burpees OYO. Mosey to WPM.

    BLIMPS to the top — Stop at each level : 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges each leg, 15 Imp Walkers, 20 Merkins, 25 Plank Jacks, 30 Squats. Plank and wait at the top. Mosey down the stairs. Since it was ground hog day, as an homage to the movie of the same name,  we did it all over again. #crowdpleaser At the top we did 6 minutes of Mary: RT, Hello Dolly, Real Freddie, Flutter Kick x 20, LBC x 25. Mosey back to the flag for COT w shoutout by YHC.

    Welcome FNG’s I Love You Man and Medulla Oblongata!

    Good Times!

  • El Wire’s Gloomy Gloom

    EL Wire ordered up some nice temperature weather but some GLOOMY SOUPY fog and wet ground.

    16 PAX circled up for a Wed am beatdown led by El Wire

    El Wire started with the JACK OFF. (he said it!)

    SSH x 20, Imp Walker Squat x 20, Seal Jack x 20, Smurf Jack x 20, Plank Jack x 20, Peter Parkers x 20

    Then we mosey’d to the levee for 5 rounds of LEVEE.

    10 Willi E Coyotes on the tracks

    10 merks at the top of the levee, 25 LBCS at the bottom.

    Then we mosey’d to Audubon’s statue for some DORA  stopping for 10 more Willi E Coyotes again.

    100 decline merks, 200 dips and 300 LBTs.   Brutal but good.

    Then we bear crawl’d up and over the neutral ground and then crab crawled back.  About 15-20 yards.

    Long mosey back to the FLAG.

    Arrived 2 min early at the FLAG so 20 Burpees OYO

    Circle of Trust – prayed for Bartman’s secretary who died over the break.
