Day: February 2, 2021

Welcome to Groundhog Day at the Storm. Welcome to Groundhog Day at the Storm.

Welcome to Groundhog Day at the Storm. Any FNG’s?  (No.)
I’m not an expert, so anything I say is just a suggestion. Modify as needed. The first exercise is the side-straddle hop. Ready position, Move. In cadence, Exercise! (IC x 22)

Today’s workout will be a series of Four Corners exercises. The four corners are marked by the orange cones around the parking lot. At each corner we’ll do 22 reps of the exercise written next to the cone. The sheets at each of the cones will also tell you how to move to the next corner. To keep track of how many circuits we’ve completed, the first PAX back here after all 4 corners will take one Groundhog out of this box, place it in the next chalk circle, and Plank for the Six. We’ll move to the next round together.

Let’s mosey this way to the first cone.

1. 22 Flutter kicks – count one leg (Bear crawl to next cone)
2. 22 Bobby Hurleys (Karaoke to next cone)
3. 22 Shoulder Taps – each shoulder (Lunge walk to next cone)
4. 22 Merkins

Funny thang, after the first round it seems like we started all over, like YHC and the 11 PAX were stuck in a time warp, and must’ve repeated the same first round 6 or 7 times (the stuffed groundhog somehow mysteriously jumped back in the box every time – maybe he saw his shadow?) before a train rolled through and broke the twisted cycle. After the obligatory 5 burpees plus 15 seconds of LBC’s YHC ended the madness with the pledge.

Announcements:
– Sign up for Extinction Run 2/13
– Rooster run in Rock Hill
– Dirt will be somewhere tomorrow for EC

Prayers:
– Double Trouble
– Rebar
– YHC’s friend Pat with cancer
– Prayer list on Slack

Thanks for the privilege to lead.

VQ Redux

It’s groundhog day or the second day of the second month or 2/2. I think 22 is a good theme.

Cold and breezy. Little sun still up. Everybody’s sitting in cars trying to stay warm.

PAX start making their way to the circle. Nice crowd for a Tuesday evening.

Rumors were swirling about a certain Q’s weak sauce wimpy workout earlier today.

530 pm. Time to clock in.
All home folks, no disclaimer. Everything is a suggestion and don’t care if you do them or not. You vs you. No form police present.

Pledge.

Words of wisdom.
Read the 23rd Psalm.
We’ve heard, read or said it hundreds of times.

Read it slowly phrase by phrase.

Genuflect on the phrase.
What does this mean?
What does that mean?

Remembering my VQ four years ago. Freight, Def Leppard, Slaw,and Pockets attended and were here tonight. Billy Madison, Edison, Swimmer and Chum weren’t.

Prayer requests: Mayor’s dad, Vanilla Ice’s parents, Tater Hole’s son, Blart’s M, Sister Act, others.

Def Leppard took us out.

I do believe that asses were kicked. Hard. YHC’s anyway.

Thanks for showing up to my Q guys,

Oompa Loompa.
