  • It Wasn’t Me – from Architect

    Since the listed Q didn’t show, and no one else stepped up, I had no choice but to take the lead and use my enhance mental capacity to scheme up a decent workout on the fly.

    Disclaimer provided, encouragement provided to push one’s self. Warm-ups conducted.

    Mosey’d to playground for some group therapy. First group hung out, second group just sat there, and the third remained face down. Threw in some squats because there were some special requests for leg work. PAX rotated through the three stations above.

    Partnered up and grabbed some rocks. Round 1 – Pairs made it across the baseball field, one riffled carried, the other bear crawled (also by special request). Partners switched as needed. Round 2 – repeat round 1 but with lunges (again, trying to accommodate special requests)

    PAX whined about HR remaining too low (obviously they neglected to listen to the disclaimer). YHC threw in some sprints and BBsitups. After rocks returned, workout concluded with some Mary and COT.

  • Sprinting, KoTing, and S&Ming – from Fracsac

    15 Pax showed up on a Tuesday morning to do one of those 3 things. 45 minutes later we did a CoT then hit Discipline is Destiny group. Just keep showing up!

  • Deep Sea Diver Down then Up and Up – from Heisenberg

    Warmup Windmills x 10, Grass Grabbers x 10, Imperial Walker x 25, Arm Circles Forward, Backward, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps x 10, Moroccan Night clubs x 20

    Deep Sea Diver Down – Starting at the top step of NOMA, 8 Shoulder Taps IC then descend a step and reduce the count by one until we get down to the bottom.

    Deep Sea Diver Up – This was a failed attempt as we went up head first and it was way too easy so YHC nixed the experiment at step 5.

    Mosey to the wooden steps – IC Right Leg Step ups 25, 10 Dips, Left Leg Step Ups 25, 10 Dips

    Mosey to the Singing Oak – Ring of Fire – 10 Squats around the ring while Pax held the Al Gore. Frac failed to follow my clear instruction to avoid standing in ants.

    Mosey to Field with Tall Grass – Pax held plank position as first PAX bear crawled to first tree and started 25 LBCs and then then bear crawled to third tree. As the first Pax started the LBC the next Pax would bear crawl. At some point Surge became impatient and started out of turn.

    Mosey to Benches – Monkey Humpers IC x 25

    Mosey to Swans – Jack Web to 5

    Mosey Back to NOMA Steps – Deep Sea Diver Up – This time we started on the first step and went backwards feet first up to Step 8. This is the proper way to do a reverse Deep Sea Diver.

  • Z90s and some pax did a pretend workout – from Bolt

    YHC dug back in the annals (reread the word without your filthy mind filter) of previous Qs for something I hadn’t done in a bit—Z90s it would be with the exercises tweaked and the modes of transportation unchanged. Like many NOLA pax who are also part of the coolest generation on planet Earth, I became an adult in the 90s so this workout title includes a Z for many 90s reasons: Z Cavaricci pants, it’s the end of the alphabet like we are the last generation to not suck, it’s the movement pattern we would follow around the bases, I could go on but on to the Thang which followed the usual warmorama stuff/soundtrack followed Morning Calls for the absent Rudy.

    Z90s: 5 thru 20 reps/4 exercises, mix movement between between bases each round, mosey back to home. Skip rule in effect and an all 90s club mix playlist which guaranteed penalty burpees; it was far worse than the playlist I actually created if u can believe that!

    Round 1 (bear crawl between home, 3rd, 1st, 2nd): burpee 5x, Cracker Jacks (frog>star jump>frog) 10x, merkin 15x, plank jacks 20x

    Round 2 (crab walk): burpee, air squats, Peter Parker, American hammer 2:1

    Round 3 (crawl bear): burpee, Bonnie Blair, Parker Peter, overhead air presses

    It was at this point I gave the pax the option for Qs choice or a fourth round and after some debate Frac and The Architect split, pushing Bogey to be the swing vote, opting for round 4 (would’ve been Mary plus decadie of death) and there was mention of dancing so I called an audible on the movement between bases.

    Round 4 (dance moves of pax choice): burpee, R/L side squats, diamond merks, mountain climbers 2:1

    Back to flag—NOT. At the flag I noticed we had two minutes to spare so not wanting to cheat the pax out of their money’s worth we ventured to the edge of the outside track shoulder to shoulder to put on a show for the Old Metairie muckity mucks: Humping of the monkey followed by pleasing of the wife followed by O rings just to solidify the theme for the obviously horrified onlookers.
    In retrospect, I either forgot how much Z90 can suck or it was a poor choice given all the workouts I haven’t been to recently and only kicked my own ass. I’ll let the pax chime in. Winded, honored, and grateful. COT.

    Thanks for letting me LEAD!
