Tequilla Sunrise – March 18, 2022

Well I knew I would have an uphill battle with pax showing up this morning at Tequilla Sunrise. I mean I was going against the Chief Executive Officer of F3 (Slaughter) who was on Q at Downtown, but I appreciate the 10 pax for making it out this morning.

Seeing no FNG’s, we took a quick mosey where we circled up for the warm up.

WARM UP
Windmill x 10 IC
Imperial Walker x 10 IC
Gravel Pickers x 10 IC
SSH x 25 IC

We then went on a run to Davis Park where we performed a set of exercises.

ROUND 1
10  carolina dry docks run to second light pole.
10 lbc’s run to third light pole.
10 squats run back to first light pole.

Rinse and repeat adding 15 reps and then 20 reps.

ROUND 2
10 merkins run to second light pole.
10 big boys run to third light pole.
10 bobby hurley’s run to first light pole

Rinse and repeat adding 15 reps and then 20 reps.

We then returned to the starting light pole and lunged to each parking spot followed by squat. I believe their were 15 parking spots.

From there we ran to the picnic benches at the park and did IC (Dips, Derkins, and Irkins) followed by Step Up (Count one side only).

We took a mosey back to behind Belmont Central Elementary where we partnered up and did a small dora (50, 100, 150 reps). Exercises were plank jacks, mountain climbers, and SSH.

Seeing we had a few minutes left we circled up for MARY.

Storming the Shoulders

20 PAX showed at The Storm this morning and my guess is that at least half of them did EC. Strong work men!

Standard stuff at the start with a few burpees thrown in for trains that may, or may not, have passed by.

 

Mosey over to the main parking lot for some Dirty 11’s. IW Squats on one side and Hip Slappers on the other with 5 HR Merkins each time you cross the islands.

 

Time now for some suicides the long way across the parking lot. 5 Mike Tysons each time at the start and Flutter Kicks IC at each set of spaces. Increase reps by 10 at each line finishing with 50 Flutter Kicks IC.

 

Still plenty of time, so let’s knock out a round of Lindsey’s at the front of the school. 30 Derkins/10 Dips, 25 Derkins/15 Dips, 20 Derkins/20 Dips, 15 Derkins/25 Dips, 10 Derkins/30 Dips

Six minutes of Mary and time is up.

Coupons at The Sandlot

Due to a nagging leg injury, YHC decided to bring a Pain Lab style workout to the southside on Monday. 11 PAX decided to join in on the fun and 1 other went on a walkabout with a rucksack full of weight. Here’s what happened….

 

Grab a coupon and rifle carry across the street to the bank parking lot for a 20 to 1 Countdown.

20 – Curls, Goblet Squats, Chest Press, Big Boys (drop the coupon for this one)

19 – Curls, Goblet Squats, Chest Press, Big Boys….

Repeat all the way down to one.

There was a little complaining during the Big Boy portion of this and some even continued the objection on Slack later on. Sorry Dirt!

 

Still some time left and we’re about 160 reps short of hitting 1000 for the workout.

20 American Hammers IC then rifle carry across the lot for 20 Flutter Kicks IC. Shoulder carry back, then rinse and repeat with 15 reps, 10 reps and 5 reps. Counting the warmup that should get us to 1000 and time is up.

I’ve been dealing with a shin issue for over three weeks and last week was told to take it easy for another couple of weeks. Everyone has their own definition of taking it easy and my first thought was to just shut it down, find some substitute Q’s for my workouts, bail out of the upcoming relays and enjoy the fartsack. But that thought process doesn’t fit with F3. We have Pain Lab workouts that I can attend, I can modify as necessary, other team members will be there to step in and pick up my legs in relays and most important, MY BROTHERS WILL BE THERE TO SUPPORT ME! I’ve said many times that you come to a workout as much for the man beside you as you do for yourself and I’d like to say “Thank You” to all of you for your support of not only me, but all the PAX of F3 Gastonia.
