13 Men posted in the frosty gloom this morning at Mt. Hollywood. I knew that the coupons hadn’t been used at Hollywood yet, so I to bring them out to break the AO in. I had borrowed a portion of my Q from Goodwrench in Sailview and these PAX were going to be the test mules for the workout.
Warmup:
Seal Jacks X 10IC, Gravel Pickers X 10 IC, Morr. Nightclubs X 10 IC
Thing:
“The Last Castle” I had placed a pile of coupons (CMU’s, Medicine Balls) in one of the parking spaces at the middle school. All PAX line up shoulder to shoulder 20 yards away from coupons. First PAX moseys/walks/skips to the pile of coupons and transports them by any means to another parking spot approx. 10 yards away. Q calls an exercise for all other PAX to perform while their brother is transporting the coupons. The Q may have placed too many coupons for a crowd of this size. Realizing this would take forever, I reduced the number of coupons to facilitate a quicker turnaround time for each PAX. I can’t remember all the exercises called, but I attempted to keep it balanced between cardio/chest/legs/abs. Side note: Blart is a Jenga champion with coupons. I will need to modify this routine, but I was pleased with the disgruntled mumblechatter it produced.
Next, all grab a coupon and circle up for curls/ overhead press. Start from 15 (curls/ overhead presses) all the way down to 1, never letting the coupon touch the ground. This locked down the mumblechatter.
Next was the Bearmuda Triangle. Bear crawl in a triangular pattern on the sidewalk (there’s a perfect spot at Mt. Hollywood for this) and perform escalating hand release Merkins until you reach 10. This is a shoulder burner for sure.
Quick mosey back to the coupons for 5 Blockees to finish us out.
Announcements:
Christmastown 5K this Saturday. We have 7 chariots committed (possible 8th). It’s going to be awesome!
Convergence on 12/28 at Gashouse. All other AO’s will be closed.

Prayer Requests:

Those who have lost loved ones that will make this Thanksgiving/ Christmas season more difficult.
YHC took us out in prayer
We then had the Pledge and Name-o-rama. (Q fail)
Moleskin:
I know this workout seemed scatterbrained. I was trying some new things, and I appreciate the PAX working with me to see it through. Thank all of you men for allowing me to lead. I encourage each of you to remember what the Thanksgiving Holiday means and to remember those things that you’re most Thankful for. Don’t take a day for granted!
Until Next Time,
Slaw
