Next Man Up!

So when YHC showed up at the AO for a humid beat down it was pretty apparent at 5:28 we did not have a Q! So as Vanilla Ice pulled in we got to work with YHC taking over sans any real prep other than experience. Went like this:

COP:

Stretches, arm and Grapevine.

SSH X 20

IW X20

Mtn. Climbers X 20

Cherry pickers X 20

Mosey over to the field for some Jack Kevorkians as follows:.

1 set HR Merkins, 5X, 5X

2nd set: Big boy situps, 5, 10

3rd set: CCDs: 5, 10

4th set: Jump squats 5, 10

What we’re doing here is partner one runs halfway and do the exercise as above and then all the way and do that number, while partner 2 does them all the time of partner one’s run&work. Then we flapjack partners.

4 corners as follows:

Corner 1: 10 SSH

Run the field to corner 2

Corner 2: 10 SSH, 10 merkins

Lt. Dan to Corner 3

Corner 3:  10 SSH, 10 Merkins, 10 squats

Lt. Dan to corner 4

Corner 4: 10 SSH, 10 Merkins, 10 squats, 10 Diamond Merkins

Head to the sidelines for 11s, Dips on the benches, LBCs on the opposite side of the field.

Done, – pledge and COT.

NMM:

Humid morning and a failed alarm clock transpired to make for an interesting morning. Glad to step up and it turned out to be a buttermilk morning for sure! Pax worked hard. proud of all the efforts.

Couple of things for the pax. 1st, Vanilla Ice and Nutria are job hunting. VI as a teacher in the school system here in Gaston County ,Nutria in the chemical sales business. Any help would be appreciated including being a reference and if you know someone in the biz, let’em know and advocate! That ‘s a lot of why we are here men.

Looking forward to Saturday at the Yank. Everything is set with Sam and we may have visitors from Metro and Lake Wylie. Getting back to first principles is pretty necessary right now.

Great to have the opportunity to lead today. You show up for these things. So when in doubt, get up and post!

-it was a struggle for me. 4 years ago on this date, I walked in from posting to my M screaming & crying into her phone. She had gotten the news that her sweet Lauren was in a bad car accident & didn’t make it. Trauma does crazy things to your body. My rock is extra heavy & will not move. But I glad to have all of you cheering me on & helping me. Until next time, T-Square out

Double Respect Birthday Beatdown

It’s a beautiful day at Midoriyama. The sun is shining. Nope, rapidly darkening skies with thunder on the horizon and moving swiftly our way. Birds are singing. Nope, oh well, at least it’s my birthday.

I see Gold Digger’s car in the parking lot, as he’s probably running a half marathon for EC.

It’s 1730. Time to rock.

No FNG, so no disclaimer. We have a shovel but no flag. Pledge to the imaginary flag.

Circle up.

Since I am now officially a forgetful old geezer, I graciously allowed the PAX count our exercises as we progress around the circle.

30 Side straddle hops (YHC)
30 Side straddle hops + 30 second plank (Broke)
30 Side straddle hops + 30 mountain climbers (Dr Seuss) + 30 second plank
30 Side straddle hops, 30 mountain climbers + 30 shoulder taps (Tyson) + 30 second plank
30 Side straddle hops, 30 mountain climbers, 30 shoulder taps + 30 little baby crunches (Love Boat) + 30 second plank
30 Side straddle hops, 30 mountain climbers, 30 shoulder taps, 30 little baby crunches + 30 squats (Def Leppard) + 30 second plank
30 Side straddle hops, 30 mountain climbers, 30 shoulder taps, 30 little baby crunches, 30 squats + 30 dips (Purple Haze) + 30 second plank
30 Side straddle hops, 30 mountain climbers, 30 shoulder taps, 30 little baby crunches, 30 squats, 30 dips + 30 calf raises (Gold Digger) + 30 second plank

We learned that our esteemed educator (Dr. Seuss) counts really slow in cadence and he can call 30 mountain climbers in 6 seconds when single counting.

About this time, Q called it quits 15 minutes early due to lightning in the area. I’m truly sorry that we missed getting to add 30 merkins (Wichita), 30 flutter kicks (Pockets) and 30 burpees (Blart).

I’m sure all are happy that I lied about my age.

Prayer Requests for Sister Act’s family, Purple Haze, Mayor’s mom, Clavin’s M, HIPAA, T-Square, Whoopie was doctoring someone’s dad and others I can’t recall.

YHC took us out.
