15 PAX showed up this morning in the shadow of a towering 21-foot-wide moon at the Yank.  One FNG so a clear disclaimer was given.  Mosey behind the Jailhouse to spread out for warmups.

Warm Up –

  • Abe Vigodas – nice and slow
  • Chinooks – Yes, I did d a little research in the F3 exicon to find a few exercises I have haven’t done yet
  • Imperial Walkers
  • Grass Pickers
  • Moroccan Nightclubs
  • Stretching – YHC got a little mixed up with left and right so it sounded a little more like a game of Twister but the PAX knew what I meant so we got through it

Nutria and Breaker Breaker headed off to the Bunker and we moseyed up the hill.

The Thang –

A modified Bill Murray and Route 66. Mosey to a different location between each set.  We started at 10 reps.  I gave the PAX a chance to start back down after 14 but none spoke up so up to 17 reps of each it was.

  • Hand release merkins (IC)
  • Gas pumps (IC)
  • Lt. Dan’s (OYO)
  • WW1’s (OYO)

Along the way we mixed it up including –

  • 1 minute wall sit
  • 10 Hip slappers (OYO)
  • 6 Shooters (IC) compliments of Orangeman (Shooting the Moon)
  • Carioca
  • Fiddler Crab Walk (not a crowd favorite FYI)
  • Monkey Humpers (IC) for the Bunker crowd compliments of Tiger
  • Bernie Sanders

Finally, back to the parking lot to join the Bunker guys where the PAX helped finish out 4 minutes of Mary.

Back to the Fighting Yank for COT
