7 men posted at Folsom for a Slaw Slobberknocker. It was great to finally meet Medicine Woman. He’s finally off the DL and back in action. It was also great to see Gumby back after fighting some alien version of the crud. Huckleberry shows up barefoot. YHC thought (this man is really tough or really crazy), but come to find out he had literally rolled out of the fartsack and had to throw his shoes in the car as he rolled out. As our most SENIOR member of the PAX (his initials are Def Leppard) planted the shovel flag, it was time to start. As Huckleberry would say, “Time to Clock In”.

Warmup:

  • Sealjacks x 10IC
  • Merkins x 10 IC
  • Don Quixote x 10 IC
  • Goof Balls (always a crowd pleaser) x 10IC

Pledge Of Allegiance

The Thang:

Mosey to the tennis courts for:

All PAX line up at one end of the tennis courts. There are 6 courts to travel. All exercises are single count.

  • 5 Burpees OYO (quiet disgusted mumble chatter from Huckleberry)
  • Lunge across court #1
  • 20 Merkins
  • Bear Crawl across court #2
  • 30 Squats
  • Duck Walk across court #3
  • 40 CDD’s
  • Crab Walk across court #4
  • 50 Flutter Kicks
  • Broad Jump across court #5
  • 60 SSH
  • Joe Hendricks across court #6
  • 70 LBC’s
  • Sprint back to start

Rinse and Repeat 2 more times.

Next, the PAX moseyed to the horse track and the concrete steps beside the track. There are 5 steps.

Start at the bottom step for:

  • 10 Box Jumps (or step ups if needed)
  • 50 Calf Raises

Step up to the next step for:

  • 10 Box Jumps (or step ups)
  • 15 Decline Merkins

Up to the next step for:

  • 10 Box Jumps (or step ups)
  • 30 Dips (single count)

Up once again for:

  • 10 Box Jumps (or step ups)
  • 20 Incline Merkins

Up to the last step for:

  • 10 Box Jumps (or step ups)
  • 30 Reverse Dips (something YHC thought up. Place your legs on the step above with hands on the next step down. Think of it as a decline dip. #Qfail)

Sometime around here Gomer shows up out of nowhere (during the reverse dips).

Next the PAX went to the horse track for some cardio work. Sprint the starightaways and mosey around the ends. YHC was accused by the PAX of altering the start countdown so he could win the sprint. Remember, I usually post at Midoriyama and counting isn’t one of my strengths.

After 2 laps of sprints, YHC led the men back towards the flag. This is when we Gomer left. Come back when you can stay longer, Gomer!

We were then treated to a round of wall work by Huckleberry.  One round of:

  • Ascending Testicles (suck factor up)
  • Australian Mountain Climbers x 20 IC (suck factor WAY up)

Moseyed back to the flag for 5 minutes of Mary:

  • Box Cutters x 10IC
  • Freddie Mercury x 10IC
  • Sandy V’s x 10IC

And last but not least, 10 Burpees OYO.

Time.

Moleskin:

Great 2nd F at Country Kitchen after the workout. Main topic of discussion was Tool Time and Sly with wedding day being upon them. This jump started the PAX recounting many memories (and horror stories) of raising our own children. YHC can’t go into detail, but Medicine Woman has some awesome stories about his 2.0. Sister act is going through the time with his 2.0’s that YHC is glad he’s past (THE talk, birds and the bees). Everyone had a great laugh at the other guy’s expense. It just goes to show you that we aren’t that different at all.

Once again, it was honor to lead today. Thanks for the push, guys!
