Day: January 24, 2018

Used a 4X4 to get to a San Antonio Shuffle

YHC woke up to the sound of rain.  This had the Q worried that turnout would be low, but once again the PAX proved me wrong with 12 HIM ready to put in work at 5:30.  Well done men.  This back blast will be to the best of my memory do to the Weinke was destroyed by standing water from the rain, but I believe the PAX wanted to destroy before the rain got to it.

Warm up:

SSH 30 IC

Imperial walker 25 IC

Squats 20 IC

10 Merkins IC

10 Burpees OYO (Should have been 5, but an extra 5 for the train)

Pledge

Mosey to the front of the school.  Their was some light mumble chatter during the Mosey.  I think I even heard comment about the mosey pace.

Thang:

4X4

2 Wall walks

5 Scorpion CDD’s (10 total)

20 Plank Jacks

10 Merkins

In between each exercise there was a bear crawl of about 10 yards. Rinse and repeat 4 times.

During this time the mumble chatter moved more toward grunts and hard work.  Great job men, way to push through.  My upper body was on fire.

Mosey to the tennis court of a triple nickel, but not before 5 burpees for another train.

10 squats

Run the width of 2 tennis courts

10 Monkey humpers

Then on the the San Antonio Shuffle.  All PAX on baseline.  YHC demonstrated the movement then shared with the PAX that he found it on the F3 site.  I think I might be banned from using the site now. There was even a comment that I must hate the PAX.  The website says that the San Antonio Shuffle is Lunge R Leg, Lunge L Leg, Burpee, Plank Jack  pop up then repeat.  I knew that this would be too easy for the PAX, so I modified the Shuffle. Lunge R Leg, Lunge L Leg, Burpee once down two Merkins, 4 Plank Jacks  pop up then repeat. We did this for the width of two tennis courts.  Way to push through this one

Time running out, mosey back to start. Time to work on the core.

Flutter Kicks 20 IC

LBCs 20 IC

Hip Rock N Raise 15 OYO (P90X style)

Nolan Ryan 10 each side OYO (Q fail on this one.  Everyone was done, but the Q had only done one side, so I did them Saturday Night Fever Style.  You had to be there)

Mountain Climbers  20 IC

Few minutes left. Round of Mary

V Ups  10 OYO

V up Roll up 20 OYO (Back to P90X)

The Moleskin:

Great morning with lot’s of guys including myself working hard. We hit all the muscle groups to spread out the payment for the workout which is you should feel it about every place in your body. Just remember that soreness is the weakness leaving your body.

If you are reading this than you are most likely part of F3. I see lot’s of new guys and this is great. Make sure you are accounting for the 6 and sending someone back to collect the 6 if you are Q. Let’s all keep on following up with all these new guys and make sure they know what this is all about.

As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. Proverbs 27:17

40 Day Challenge Day 5, if you are in this challenge keep up the good work. I am in and it’s not easy but it sure is easier with a bunch of dedicated friends all making the sacrifices at the same time. If you are not in this then you can sill just join in now and go the extra days after. So stop making excuses and make it happen.

Thanks for the opportunity to Q, it is always a pleasure,

Gastone Out!
