Lessons Learned

After one week as site Q, YHC is quickly learning from mistakes and some of those lessons learned are;

  1. Send out reminders to the upcoming Qs so that they remember they are scheduled to lead the workout, and you don’t have to wing a wienke

  2. Always keep a prepared wienke available so that you can quickly adapt when a Q is a no show

  3. Don’t call on Dolph for an exercise during round of Mary’s unless you are ready for 10 burpees. This applies to all Qs.

So, I thought Whoopee had the Q this morning and on my way to the Storm, I started thinking, what if he forgot, I am now site Q and responsible. So I started thinking of a few exercises we could do. As I pulled into the parking lot, several cars were already there, but I didn’t see Whoope’s truck. It was about 5:25am when I arrived, so he still has time. 5:30 came, time to go to work. PAX, you have YHC as Q today so let’s get started

Warm up:

SSH x 25 I/C

Mountian Climbers x 20 I/C

Merkins x 10 oyo

Train whistle, 5 burpees oyo

Thang:

Mosey to the school building and then called exercise..Mosey around the soccer field and at each corner do the following;

corner 1 – 5x burpees

corner 2 – 15x dips

corner 3 – 25 squats

corner 4 – 35 lbc

Rinse and repeat 5x

Now for the triple nickel;  5 flutter kicks, bear crawl across sidewalk for 5 American Hammers, rinse and repeat 5x

Next, back against the wall, but below knees and hold for 20 seconds, release and then balls against wall for 30 seconds, recover, rinse and repeat 2x…thanks Gastone for this exercise, it was a real crowd pleaser.

Zombie  walkers and then Mosey back to flag. Finish up with a few called exercises from PAX.. of course Dolph leads off with 10 burpees. It is 6:14 and another train whistle blows, 5 burpees oyo to complete workout.

Whoopee, there was a lot of smack talk about you not showing up, No worries, wanted to give you a hard time knowing you can take it, and definitely dish it out.

Men, it was an honor to lead you this morning. Great work by all!

Breaker Breaker

No Ruckers

it was a rather humid morning rolling up into Folsom for some PrisonBreak shenanigans. There wasn’t much mumblechatter on our GroupMe conversation last night which left me not so optimistic on the turnout. I roll in and Sister Act is right there with me. He takes off as I wait for other PAX and clock in time. Here they come and just in time.

In case you didn’t know, PrisonBreak is actually a Run/Ruck AO which also uses the Folsom facilities. There are a couple routes to venture on depending on whether you Ruck or run. Both however, incorporate the Gaston College campus.

There were no Rucker’s this morning so all took off on their own pace and route. Once 6:10 hit, all but Oompa Loompa we’re accounted for. After a minute of looking, we see his bright red shirt in the distance. Come to find out, he had a Sparky moment down around he lower pond. ShowToKnow for explanations. Anyway, all are back safe so time to clock out.
