This was Tippmann’s VQ. It was awesome. You should have been there.
Day: July 9, 2022
They rucked, but not only did they ruck, they did other stuff too.
We rucked to the end of Plantation Trail, did some merkins, and came back.
Me and Oompa Loompa showed to know. We did work around Martha and did more work along the way. Great work! Great mumblechatter!
Prayers out to Broke’s M, Turtleman and all of those facing adversities.
Peace out!
YHC wasn’t sure if the 4th week would bring the PAX in or keep them away. It definitely didn’t keep them away and everyone was here before time. Lots of bat flippers present so I need to bring it. Time comes and this is what we did.

If you were at Midoriyama Thursday Slaw introduced this workout from the Exicon.
Gorilla Complex
With a cinder block or other coupon of Q’s choosing, PAX perform the following OYO without stop: 8 Curls For Girls, 8 High Pulls, 8 Overhead Presses, 8 Tricep Extensions, then drop coupon for 8 Merkins. Follow this up by a quick mosey for a brief upper body recovery, typically no more than 50 yards. Rinse and Repeat 8 Times.. Freight couldn’t wait to repeat this one. I will say it’s definitely harder in the Midoriyama heat.
Partner up
Hand Release Merkins. Boo yah Merkin in the middle and star jump on the other side. Counting down from 10 on each side.
11’s with Imperial Walker Squats and WW I’s on the hill in front of the police department.

YHC took us out.
Thanks to Captain Stubbing for not making it all “Covenant Village” today at the bootcamp.
Since taking over as site Q at The Fighting Yank I’ve decided to up my Qing. Some times by necessity and others are planned. This one was sort of planned. I’ve enjoyed going to Midoriyama so when I played ultimate frisbee for the first time I knew we could do it at the Yank.
We warmed up but with no written weinke I don’t remember what we did.
The Bunker stayed with Tiger and the boot campers took off.
On our mosey I noticed we had an uneven amount of guys, but Wojo brought his cleats and is a pro, so his team was going to be down one.
Stop at a hill for some hill work. Stop at each light poll do 5 HR merkins, run back to the crosswalk for 5 CDDs. Repeat until I say stop, about 6 polls.
Mosey to the track for our game. We used Pilgrims Progress’ disk and he helped set up our end zones. After a few falls, bumps and fouls the game was over. Def Leopards team lost even though he wasn’t there. Brutus was the MVP on offense and defense.
Back to the flag for the pledge of allegiance.
Announcements:
Convergence next Saturday at 0700, Folsom. The Yank and Bunker are closed.
