Bag of tricks (what a treat!?)

As we gathered in the gloom on a nice cool morning after a night of little ghosts, goblins, and too much candy it was great to see 10 men show to push the rock.  5:30 hit and here we go.

mosey to the old Harris Teeter parking lot;

The thang;

At each of the 6 long perpendicular lines to the building that make up the parking spaces of the parking the pax is to do a 10 count of a selected exercise out of the Q’s “bag of tricks”.   Upon completion of the 10 ea at all 6 parking space line the instruction was to mosey around rear of old Harris Teeter to the loading dock, hop up the loading dock and bear crawl back to the start where we were to do 50 LBC’s.  Let’s get busy!  The excel uses were as follows;

Merkins

Bobby Hurleys

Mountain Climbers

Seal Jax

As the pax was screaming for more, I couldn’t let them down, so we lunge walked to the closest of the same lines we were using for the thang where we did 10 squats.  Repeat for next 3 lines.

At this point the Pax made note that this workout had “Gastone written all over it”.  I thanked them for the complement.

We meandered to the wall that is the side of the old Harris Teeter where we did 2 1 minute wall sits with arm raises.  At this point Stone Cold said we need to do some arms.  I was happy to ablidge.

Merkins x 15 (Turtleman made mention that if we do 15 more we will have a nice round 100 for the morning and he likes round numbers.  More to come on that in a few.)

Mosey to the “Martha’s Wall” so we named it for some dips.

Dips x 100

Back to snowballs for some an work.

It was truly my pleasure and a great honor to join such an outstanding group of gentlemen that live up to the creed of “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another”.  Awesome work pushing that rock by everyone.  As always I am humbled by all of you.

God bless you all, in Him,
