Day: February 2, 2022

Groundhog Day. Again.

Interrupted some mumblechatter amongst 5 PAX at 0530 for a brief disclaimer ahead of a Groundhog Day beatdown.  Warm up with SSH (10xIC) as Gator joined the circle, then Hillbilly Walkers (10xIC). 

Next exercise is the Alarm Clock. (Groans from the PAX confirmed to YHC that this was a solid choice on the Weinke.) UP! Just one, that’s all. Recover! That was pretty stupid. Let’s move on to the next thing, a little Rack & Stack. Here’s how that works:

Nur to the edge of the awning, 5 burpees.
Mosey back here, 5 burpees.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 10 hand-release merkins.
Mosey back here, 5 burpees, 10 hand-release merkins.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 15 jump squats.
Mosey back here, all of the above.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 20 4-count flutter kicks.
Mosey back here, all of the above.  Plank for the Six when done.
To get us started, Sargento cranked up some music.

“Insane in the Membrane” was the first selection on the playlist. It was apparently the long version and lasted through the third “Nur.” (YHC thought that particular song would play well into the theme of today’s workout, but allowed the music play through.)  Mumblechatter had resumed when a white Honda pulled across the carpool exit lane and up to the dumpster to illegally dump something. 

After completing the first round, finish up with the Alarm Clock. (Groans from the PAX confirmed to YHC that this was a solid choice on the Weinke.) UP! Just one, that’s all. Recover! That was pretty stupid. Let’s move on to the next thing, a little Rack & Stack. Here’s how that works:

Nur to the edge of the awning, 5 burpees.
Mosey back here, 5 burpees.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 10 hand-release merkins.
Mosey back here, 5 burpees, 10 hand-release merkins.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 15 jump squats.
Mosey back here, all of the above.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 20 4-count flutter kicks.
Mosey back here, all of the above.  Plank for the Six when done.
To get us started, Sargento cranked up some music.

Mumblechatter continued with discussion about various CSAUP’s and last night’s Rice n Beans.

After completing the second “first” round, finish up with the Alarm Clock. (Groans from the PAX confirmed to YHC that this was a solid choice on the Weinke.) UP! Just one, that’s all. Recover! That was pretty stupid. Let’s move on to the next thing, a little Rack & Stack. Here’s how that works:

Nur to the edge of the awning, 5 burpees.
Mosey back here, 5 burpees.
Nur to the edge of the awning, 10 hand-release merkins.

Mumblechatter continued until teachers began to show up.  Note for future Q’s: It’s best to Nur in the same direction as traffic.

After completing the third “first” round, finish up with the Alarm Clock. (Groans from the PAX confirmed to YHC that this was a solid choice on the Weinke.) UP! Just one, that’s all. Recover! That was pretty stupid. Look at that, we’re almost out of time!  Just 4 minutes left for some Mary, one full round of PAX choice:

More flutter kicks, Dying Cockroaches as Mrs. Breaker Breaker walked by, reverse crunches, Heels to Heaven, oblique crunches, something else and Hello Dollys.

Time!  COT.

Been there, done that

On the way out of my hood, YHC had an opportunity to shout out to Gastonia’s least ugly cardiologist and Dirt running EC. There are running AO around, just saying.

Later that morning, in the former metropolis Gaston County seat of lil D. Pax were scattered all over town and around UNC-D. Only two at the start were Broke and Mayor.
After brief exchanges of insults we all ran or rucked.

Back at the flag. More exchanges of insults and putdowns.
