  • Q Delegator – from Vagabond

    6 pax took turns Qing 8 minutes apiece + 5 at the end

  • Something Simple – Sort Of – from Charmin

    When YHC saw that there wasn’t a Q signed up for the Uptowner, he knew what to do. YHC has noticed a ton of creative, unique, and original beatdowns as of late and wanted to remind the PAX that a beatdown can be something simple.

    So of course, wanting simplicity, when YHC came up to the gate this morning to see it locked, he knew some audibles would need to be called.

    Mosey on over to the rock pile warm-o-rama, picking up Mayhem along the way. Once we get there:

    15 Side Straddle Hops
    05 Imperial Walkers/Squats/Hillbillies (these still need work)
    16 Mountain Man Poopers
    15 Mountain climbers
    15 LBC’s

    The Thang:
    Mosey on over to the practice field and explain
    One PAX always Moseying to the fence and back.

    Blimps

    B – burpees
    L – lunges
    I – imperial walkers
    M – merkins
    P – plank jacks
    S – squats

    The goal was 100 of each exercise for each PAX, and PAX who completed everything could donate reps to other PAX however this was more audacious than YHC thought it would be while laying on his bed the night before.

    Overall though, this workout was about each PAX pushing himself.

    Along the way we picked up a Klinger and a Fozzy.

    With about 5 minutes to spare, we all started to go back to the Shovel Flag. Some Pax being faster than others, they were told to Plank until everyone was there. Once YHC saw that Kenner Brah and Tenderloin were going to be a minute, and as it wasn’t 6:15 yet, I decided to do one of my favorite Mary exercises, Penguins. Once 6:15 hit and we noticed that not all the PAX were back at the Shovel Flag, the idea to move the shovel flag to the PAX was thrown out and quickly executed; talk about Freed to LEAD!

    COT: Prayers were asked for a work colleague of one of the PAX. Ended with a prayer thanking GOD for allowing us to wakeup this morning and that we all have dignity inherint to us.

  • Apple Turnover Extravaganza – from T-Square

    The mildly humid air was just right for this apple turnover inspired beatdown with Vagabond (t-claps for rounding up the troops!), Willie, Fracsac, & our visiting pax, Choot’em from downrange in Katy, TX!

    After a brief warm-up lap, stretching, and some four OYO 4×4’s, we dug into the main course.

    The setup: cones spaced every ~12 feet for about 40 yards
    The Thang:
    Apple Turnover – two times – single file starting at cone 1, bear crawl to cone 2, crabwalk to cone 3, bear crawl to cone 4, and so on till reaching the canon. Then jog another 30 yards to the Gretna seal, wait for the 6 then sprinkle in a core exercise (listed below). Rinse and repeat once before the next dish.

    Fritters – two times – (similar to Apple Turnover, but change up the alternating exercises to Lunge Walk & Burpee Broad jump) Then jog another 30 yards for some core exercise. Rinse and repeat once before the next dish.

    Sliders – two times – (you get the idea… the two alternating exercises: Karaoke for two cone spacings then Wojo for one cone spacing, alternating down the line of cones). Jog another 30 yards for some core exercise. Rinse and repeat once before the next dish.

    Pop Tart – two times – the two alternating exercises: High Knees & Bear Crawl (alternating down the line of cones). Jog another 30 yards for some core exercise.

    Core exercises at the Gretna seal – changed it up each lap:
    4 count Merkins x15
    4 count dying cockroach x15
    4 count hello dolly x15
    50 OYO LBCs
    4 count windshield wipers x10
    4 count flutter kicks x15
    Echo count straight leg lifts x30
    60 second plank

    At the end, we wrapped up with a 2-½ min Suck-it – Aiken Legs: OYO rinse & repeat 20 step ups, 20 squats, 20 lunges, 20 split jacks (rinse & repeat to the buzzer).

    Last but not least – Lazy Boys – echo count – straight back for 15, then left 10 and right 10.

  • Heavy Lifting @ el Diablo after Valentine’s Day – from Charmin

    Realizing that many of the beatdowns recently have been lifting heavy when it comes to F1 and that it would be the day after Valentine’s day, YHC wanted to have a beatdown that pushed the Pax physically while also encouraging them to grow closer with some F2.
    Disclaimer given by YHC and did a quick countoff. YHC did advise the Pax that they would have to remember this number for later.

    We all took off towards the rock pile.

    Abe Slow-godas x 10
    SSH (with a pause) x 20 This required a bit of an explanation and a couple of the Pax seemed to struggle with this and remembering their number from before.
    IW x 20
    Hillbillies x 20
    Grass Grabbers x 10

    The Thang:

    Everyone grab a medium-ish rock and partner up based on the numbers from before.
    Do a partner exercise. Then while moseying around the park and carrying the rock, answer the question with your partner. Be okay with silence for a period.

    Exercise: Overhead press x 100 (groups of 10 alternating)
    Question: Why do you come to F3?

    E: Squat x 100 (with rock, groups of 10 alternating)
    Q: How has F3 changed you for the better?

    E: Bench Press x 100 (groups of 10 alternating)
    Q: How have you changed F3 for the better?

    E: Indian Merkins on the levee (just one for those keeping track at home)
    No question, just silence while walking back to the mound; not sure if Mambi or Hokie understood this, but most seemed to get it.

    E:200 Triceps extensions (groups of however many it took to get it done)
    Q: How has losing someone close to you affected you?
    Dropped off the rocks, and saw Mahatma and Hand Grenada doing Mary so figured I would help them out

    E: 100 flutter kicks (2 is 1, groups of 10)
    Q: What’s your least favorite Mary exercise?
    Back to the flag.

    Ended with 10 Penguins since we had a minute, and since those are YHC’s favorite Mary exercise and since we needed to get to 6:15.

    Prayed for those who need it and for those we have lost.
