Something Like Midoriama Q’s……

Beautiful Saturday morning, nearly equal amount of Pax for Painlab and Bootcamp.  Disclaimer, pledge, a bit of warm up that went something like:

SSH:  20 ic

Merkin:  10 ic

LBC:  10 ic

Squats:  stopped around 9 ic, time to roll, Painlab follow Big Pappy.

Upward stroll to Grier parking lot.  I borrowed a maybe or maybe not so renowned exercise from Pizza Man implemented at Midoriama.  We picked a length a bit close to a football field length, maybe twice as long who knows…….The length will be to run after we perform the following at each side:

Burpees:  5

Merkins:  10

World War something or Big Boy sit ups:  10

Squats:  10

Rinse and repeat 4 times.  PM’s original version contained 10 burpees.  I figured my modification was best if we were to keep the Q (that would be me) from having to be carried back to homebase.

Finished, guys were looking at me for more whooping and I’m like, wait boy’s, I’m whooped.  Too bad, I’ve got the Q, let’s try another Midoriama favorite via straight from Freight’s book.  I had recently downloaded an interval timer.  Have to say for only $19.99 per month this thing works great?  Anyway, we did some modified from Freight’s original order AMRAP for 40 seconds on and 10 seconds off.  Freight’s original version was in the rain so we skipped the running after each completed round.  Instead we did Burpee’s.  Well, relying on my original notion of it would be better if I returned to homebase on my own we did a not so quick or too slow mosey a couple of hundred feet out and back.  The intervals looked something like this:

AMRAP:  40 seconds on and 10 second break…..

Merkins / Jump Squats / Flutters / SSH – Mosey not too quickly or too slowly a couple hundred yards

CDD’s / Monkey Humpers / American Hammers / Calf Raise – Mosey, mosey

Diamond Merkins / Rocky Balboa’s / Freddie Mercury / Goofballs (car came down the parking lot as we were doing this) – Mosey on……

Last round was Open Mic pick from original intervals.  I think we did Flutters, Hammers, and something else, who knows.  You can rest assured there was some exercise involved.

Almost time to go home, needed a time burner.  My typical go to is a mosey and hold position splitting half the group.  Count off 1’s and 2’s.  1’s run a certain distance while 2’s hold position…….1’s return and hold positions while 2’s run……and so on and so on.

Time to go back, finished a set of flutters with Painlab.
