  • Confusion at the Renaissance by Triple Shift – from Vagabond

    It’s Father’s Day and I was all excited to bring out the coupons (kettlebells and dumbbells) to get our old man strong bods in shape. After talking with Fracsac yesterday at coffeteria, he said no has signed up so I said I would take it. After signing up, I received an email that confirmed that I was the Q. The only problem was that I signed up for next Sunday, June 25th. Insert Face Plant meme here.

    As I started to unload the bus with all the weights, Vagabond informed me that he was the Q and graciously allowed me to co-Q with him especially will all the gear I brought. Anyway, here we go.

    Vagabond starts us off with 25 SSH, 10 Slow Vigodas, 10 Grass Grabbers, 10 Bob and Weaves, 10 Hill Billys, 10 Hip Slappers, and 10 Wax on/offs. Short mosey to the grass to the left of NOMA for a descending ladder of 20/15/10/5 Merkins, 20/15/10/5 Big Boy Situps, and 20/15/10/5 Bobby Hurleys. After we did a first set, we lunged walk up the ramp then ran back to the beginning. On the second round after we did the 15/15/15, we lunged walked then bear crawled then ran back to the grass. On the third round after the 10/10/10 we lunged walked, bear crawled then did 2 burpees at 4 well-spaced orange cones then ran back to the start. Finally, after 5/5/5, we lunged walked, bear crawled, then did 4 burpees at the 4 well-spaced orange cones the ran back to the start.

    Time for the hand off and then the weights. The instructions were to pick up a weight and start at the landing area in front of NOMA. We would do 20 single arm rows, then farmer carry the weight to the first light pole then do 18 squats. From there we would farmer carry the weight to the second light pole and do 15 hand release merkins. Continuing with the farmer carry, we would go to the third light pole and do 13 American Hammers with the weight in a letter ‘U’ pattern. Finally, we would farmer carry the weight to the fourth light pole and perform 10 bulgarian split squats with the weight (each leg). The numbers 20, 18, 15, 13, and 10 are the ages of my children and I was hoping to do 5 rounds of this routine but that was too ambitious, and we didn’t have enough time. Mosey back to the front of NOMA to drop off our weights and we headed to the back of NOMA for a surprise and of course Sunday Mornings. The surprise exercise was Burpees/Donkey Kicks! Like a Jack Webb routine, we did 1 burpee in cadence then 2 donkey kicks. We increased it all the way up to 6 burpees / 12 donkey kicks. #Crowd Pleaser. Finally, we did 2 Sunday mornings then headed back to the flag.

    Countoff, namerama then memory lane. I asked the PAX to share a good memory they had with their father in honor of Father’s Day. What a special time getting to hear the stories of time well spent and memories made with their dads. I prayed us out and ask God to bless us to be the fathers we were designed to be. Happy Father’s Day!

  • Not a professional, also not Kenna Brah… – from Bolt

    Coming in hot and tempted to grab my speaker given Kenna Brah’s previously scheduled Q, I opted to have faith KB would screech in behind me to lead the BD—shoulda grabbed the speaker. Too late; disclaimer and urging the pax onto the field still hopeful for the Qs emergence during the “Warmarama (sans music—the pax were disappointed). Usual stuff with a Scantron stretch added in just because. Guess YHC is the Q and also not Kenna Brah.

    The Thang: Bogey astutely noted as Warmarama ended that pax would gather along the goal line in plank for what was going to b a periodic BD opener and now YHC is almost forced to make it as much a mainstay as Rapper’s Delight and burpees (u can thank Bogey)—Plank Hurdles (the pax from Monday rejoiced) and Vagabond started us off on the right hash rather than midfield, the path had been set. Upon completing the length of the field to the back of the opposite end zone (despite Bogey urging to continue to the tracks) it was time to circle up for 25 LBCs, on your feet for 5 burpees OYO, sixes for 20 wife pleasers, up for 5 burpees, sixes for O-rings 10x each direction, 25 monkey humpers (a theme had developed which cleared the track of all onlookers) 5 burpees.

    Continuing his Nostradamus-like ability, Bogey correctly predicted after our mosey to the playground equipment that morning calls were next. These really sucked on Monday with 12 people and they still sucked today with only seven people.

    Mosey to the far curb of the gym parking lot for 20 tricep dips to warm us up for bears eat crabs in honor of Charmin (who it turns out had a fender bender otw to the BD). The Architect was successful again in completing the course as a crab along with Heisenberg who ventured in with his passport from the BIG CITY. All other crabs became bears upon my tag, yet ate no crabs. Circle the six and bear crawl the rest of the way with them—no man left behind.

    Mosey to the pavilion for 20 RLSU, 15 derkins, 20 LLSU and then in honor of Mahatma, the plank-merkin Indian “run” much to everyone’s delight–ful groaning as we got to the halfway point.

    Mosey back to nearest end zone and circle up for protractors cuz Pool Boy remarked how much he liked them Monday except we were only able to dedicated 1 minute to them for time—I won’t let u down next time, Pool Boy. Back to flag, COT.

  • Rucking, Running, and knees over toes (oh my!) – from Charmin

    Bolt pushed us ruckers to a pace of 16:52. The runners did whatever it is they do, and the kots guys were late (what’s new lol).

    Cot was about loving our loved ones while we can.

  • Sabbath Day! – from Vagabond

    Warmup, jump rope, pax choice with rock, Sunday mornings, plank

  • El Diablo’s BDSM (Burpees Don’t Suck Much) – from Bolt

    In preparation for my 3 yr MANniversary Q 6/5, while DR in The Woodlands, YHC wanted to try something new, except of course for the warmorama song bc the pax want what they want and who am I to deny them?! Started with Abe Vigoda then followed by Abe SLOgoda after Bogey, at coffee recently, challenged the idea of what’s a warmup, contending that SSH is too high impact for a warmup. Next, of course, were SSH followed by the usuals. Walk the field backwards to the playground equipment, music blaring to create pax pleasure and pain, depending on the listener (GLORIOUS).

    Morning call x5: this made for a long plank and plenty merkins with 17 pax (it IS starting off to be a good morning), especially with Hand Grenada and Vagabond dragging ass to the pull up bar at the end. Mosey to pavilion where the skip rule was explained, prompting Rudy to immediately make us pay 5 burpees (no double skips so thank Rudy for Sandstorm).

    El Diablo Ds: Dry Docks, (20) (Fast Tax doesn’t like screaming, pay five burpees), Dolly (25), Dips (20), Dying Cockroches (31 just cuz), Derkins (20), Dirty Hookups (20), Diamond merkins (5, they suck at the end): all in varied cadence (the Pax loved that part). Mosey back to warmorama spot and circle up with me, no more skipping allowed.

    100 Burpee playlist (below): burpee the key word(s) and perform a movement in between (SSH, Seal claps, IW, OH claps). 30 sec rest between songs. YHC pivoted the fourth song to be LBC/wife pleasers and still ran outta time (Fast Tax was first to call time so that must mean it was good. Good meaning bad, not good meaning good—this pleased YHC). Honored, motivated, and appreciative as always, pax! COT.

    100 Burpee Playlist:
    Flower/Moby: SSH, “Down”
    Tubthumping/Chumbawumba: Seal
    Claps, “Down”
    Roxanne/Sting: Imperial Walkers, “Roxanne”
    Get Back Up/Toby Mac: OH claps, “Get back up”

  • Birthday Q with no Plans – from Pillsbury

    It was a not so humid morning with a tad breeze. I woke up later than expected, but arrived at the AO at 5:10am. I made my rounds to locate spots for our unplanned work out and hoped that I could come up with something worth it that could challenge everyone.

    At 5:30 I announced I was the Q explained I was not a professional! No feet in mouth this time.

    Some of us mosey over to the football for warm ups the rest hit the track for knees over toes

    Warm o Rama

    30 side straddle hops
    30 lbc’s
    30 grass crabbers
    20 mountain climbers
    20 Abe Vigoda
    20 forward arm circles
    20 reverse arm circles
    20 over head claps

    Mosey over to rock pile and pick a medium rock. Since it’s Monday and that means ROCK CITY, all of the following dealt with rocks.

    5 stations each
    advancement you added another 10 reps each station, which ended in total 150 reps. Sounded better in my head than actually trying to do them. Made adjustments to 5 instead of 10.

    150 overhead press
    150 curls
    150 rolls
    150 chest press
    150 big boy sit-up without rock

    Mosy back to rock pile and walk backwards to home base. Hopefully everyone received a well balanced workout this AM!
