9 Rounds at Midoriyama

11 PAX at the premier afternoon AO in Gashouse for a simple, yet effective workout. Disclaimer (no FNG’s), Pledge (no flag, Site Q fail!!) then a warmup (might have been some poor cadence called by YHC).

 

Mosey to the far turd shack for some 9 rounds:

9 – Hip Slappers then a lap

9 – Dirty Hookups then a lap

9 – Mike Tysons then a lap

18 – Hip Slappers then a lap

18 – Dirty Hookups then a lap

18 – Mike Tysons then a lap

27 – Hip Slappers then a lap

27 – Dirty Hookups then a lap

27 – Mike Tysons then a lap

 

Partner up – one plans while the other performs exercise. Flapjack until reps are reached.

90 Big Boys

180 American Hammers

270 LBC’s

 

Head back to the flag stopping at each light pole (9 total) for 9 calf raises, 9 Rocky Balboa’s and 9 IW Squats. Alternate between high knees and butt kickers on the runs.

 

Time was up.

YHC didn’t have any words of wisdom prepared, but being the HIM he is, Defib stepped up and provided some inspirational thoughts.

Luke 12:48 – “From everyone who has been give much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”

We are all very fortunate compared to most and should strive to give back in all that we do.

Shout out to the Space Force

8 joined in the fun at Mt. Hollywood this morning.  YHC left out the Space force as the 6th branch of the military at Saturday’s Q, so as promised all IC exercises were in multiples of 6. No FNG’s, quick disclaimer.

Warm up

SSH’s IC

Abe Vigodas IC

Chinooks IC

Grass Pickers IC

Imperial Walkers IC

Mosey towards Main street and stop along the way for 12 dips OYO on the brick wall.  Once we were at the bottom of the hill on Central we did suicide BLIMPS up the hill at each light post OYO.

5 Burpees

10 Lunges

15 Imperial Walkers (some chose Hillbilly’s instead)

20 Merkins

25 Plank Jacks

30 Squats

Mosey to the next brick wall for a one minute wall sit and 10 thigh slappers OYO.

Mosey to the farmers market parking lot for some coupon work.  Each HIM choses an exercise for the others to do while he runs to the blocks, does 12 curls, and runs back.

One more stop at the library for…

American Hammers IC

WW1’s OYO

Lt. Dan’s OYO

Hillbilly’s IC

Mosey back to the start for 3 minutes of Mary.  We went around the circle with each HIM calling out an exercise,  all continued the 12 rep Space Force theme, nice work!

Tried to put an Easter Egg in this one but the Space Force had different plans.

Humbled and honored to serve as Q, thank you for the opportunity to lead.

Rebar

 

Tesla…Tesla…Tesla…

Remember the classic movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off when the teacher, Ben Stein, was taking roll? When it got to Ferris, obviously he wasn’t there but teach kept calling for a name, Bueller…Bueller…Bueller… That’s what happened in this edition of TRB. There was no Q named Tesla to be found! Oh well, there were three of us who actually set our alarms correctly so we hashed it out and got after it. This is what happened…

No disclaimer, all veterans.

I think we did a warmup.

YHC took the lead for the first section of the workout.

Suicide Ladder Escalator !!!

Run to the first light and back, doing 5 burpees at the start. Then go to the second light and back, then the third and then fourth, doing 5 burpees at the start each time except on the final return do 20 WWI situps. We did 3 sets of this thang.

Next up Nutria made up some Triangle Thang

Each PAX would do AMRAP of something while at another station that dude counted to a number. The idea was to do the exercise until the other guy got to your station. That was the idea…

1st round – 10 Step Ups each leg, AMRAP American Hammers, AMRAP Hand Release merkins (stupid merkins)

2nd round – 10 Decline merkins, AMRAP Lunges, AMRAP Flutterkicks

3rd round – 20 Mountain Climbers each leg, AMRAP Squats, AMRAP Heels to Heaven

Finally, CPAP decided to do a 4 Corner Escalator on the field. It probably should be called the Field of Tesla’s dreams since he didn’t get his cussin’ rear out of the fartsack this morning!

Corner 1 – 10 CDDs

Corner 2 – 10 CDDs and 20 Bonnie Blairs each leg

Corner 3 – 10 CDDs, 20 Bonnie Blairs each leg and 30 LBCs

Corner 4 – 10 CDDs, 20 Bonnie Blairs each leg, 30 LBCs and 40 Mountain Climbers each leg

We headed back to the start due to time after that.

Moleskin: You have to be ready when unexpected circumstances come your way in life. You may not like having to deal with stuff but being prepared will help make the most out of what often could be a really crappy situation. Even though Tesla screwed his Q up royally, it gave the 3 HIM in attendance the chance to modify and lead like we’re all called to do from time to time. The moral of the story is: stand guard, be ready and don’t ever let Tesla forget his mistake! 🙂

Announcements: Christmas Party (M’s welcome and encouraged to attend), Speed for Need at Christmastown 5k

Prayers – Buckshot & M, Queso’s knee recovery and team health, good sportsmanship

Sargento, Nutria and CPAP out!
