Month: February 2023 (Page 1 of 11)

Midoriyama 2/28/23

YHC picked up the last Q for the month of February. The Rock Pushing Challenge is in full swing, and the numbers across the region are impressive! YHC wanted to bring a good beatdown, so here’s what he came up with:

Warmup:

  • Burpees
  • SSH
  • Don Q’s

PLEDGE

Thang:

Mosey to practice field for Blackjack. It’s identical to 11’s, just more reps. Number of reps adds up to 21 instead of 11. Exercises called were Hand Release Merkins and Squats.

That took 2/3 of the workout time allotted, so we performed Iron Mike Tyson Climbers. They are performed like Iron Hulk with a 1 to 4 ratio. Instead of Merkins and Air Presses, the exercises are Mike Tysons and Mountain Climbers. We made it through round 5 and paused for some core work.

Core Meltdown was an Ab routine provided by Short Sale a year or so ago. In rapid succession, we performed:

  • 20 Flutter Kicks
  • 20 LBC’s
  • 10 Leg Raises
  • 20 Freddie Mercurys
  • 15 Penguins
  • 10 Crunchy Frogs
  • 20 American Hammers
  • 15 Turtle Crunches
  • 10 Reverse Crunches

We then resumed and finished rounds 6-10 of Iron Mike Tyson Climbers. These were a real crowd pleaser!

Mosey back to the flag as time expired.

Announcements:

  • Extinction Run 3/4 at 0930, NOT 0900
  • Community Foundation Run 4/1. Sign up before 3/15. Prices go up after that date.
  • Tequila Sunrise will post at Davis Park this Friday due to a school field trip at the normal posting area.

Prayer Requests:

  • Tiger’s mother
  • Termite’s brother
  • Wirenut’s mother
  • Mozart and Volt
  • Clavin’s M

YHC took us out in prayer. Thank you to all the men who posted at Midoriyama today. It was great to see all of you guys!

Keep pushing the rock!

You talk funny, you aint from round here.

I got woken up around 3 am to help the M with a migraine headache and was a bit grumpy and felt like complaining by the time I got to Bulldog. Was it right? No, I should be grateful that I have an M to take care of. Is it frustrating that she deals with migraines and kidney stones frequently? Yes, but this world is what you make of it. So lets take those frustrations out in the Gloom with these fine Hims that decided not to fartsack this morning. We get some warm-ups in and then start our set of core exercises. Tune in to some Van Halen and lets get to work!

work against the clock for 50 seconds each:

Set 1/2: LBC’s, baby makers, heels to heaven, rev LBC’s, oblique’s, American hammers, Superman – lets rifle carry our coupons around the lot and then R&R

Set 3/4: Burpees, curls, OH press, triceps ext, CDD’d, single curl, decline chest press – lets curl while we walk the lot R&R

You may have guessed it. We talked about where we was from. Ohio, Spain, Charleston and Spidy left early before telling us where he got his birth name? Moving around is never easy, but I will say that it builds character. I can think of many more ways to build character, but some times you don’t have a choice. 

Announcements: Primal Extension this Saturday @9am, Pushing Rocks weigh in today

Prayer Requests: Radar’s sister, Bubba Sparks’ 104 year old Grandmother, Clavin’s M, Tubes’ M, Turtleman, Huckleberry, Orangeman’s M traveling.

Good work men! I am happy to know each and every one of you.

Miracle On The Hudson

This backblast title was intentional click bait to increase traffic to our web site, so that we can reach more men, to build character and for the improvement of male leadership in our communities.  Aye!

While we did end up on the Hudson, it might not qualify near the level of Capt. Sully landing that plane on the river in NYC.

Reality… we rucked pretty fast from Publix to East Hudson and back with time remaining for some Mary in the parking lot.

Wet and Dirty Thirty

Well it’s Saturday it’s 0700 and no one took the Q. So as Site Q I’m more than willing to dish out a beating. Everyone ready great quick disclaimer and we’re at it.

Warmup: SSH, Squats, MNC, Merkins, Hillbillies, Don Qs all 30 reps each

The Thang: While moseying some what aimlessly around the back roads of The Big D we’re stopping at random intersections performing 30 reps of various exercises. At our first 3 stops we did 30 merkins and 30 Imperial Walkers. Next 3 stops we did 30 Squats and 30 Air Presses. We finished our aimless mosey at the Carr School Playground the perfect spot for a modified Triple Nickel. Instead of doing 5 x 5 we did 5 x 6 to keep my 30 rep scheme going. We did 5 rounds of 6 pull-ups and 6 Burpees with a little run between. Now that our grip is burnt out and we’re good and tired and burning with lactic acid let’s get in some partner work. We ran through some Dora 1-2-3 with 100 hanging leg raises, 200 squats, and 300 LBCs. Once finished we’re moseying back to the flag with a few more stops with 30 reps of random exercises on the way back to the Flag where we finished the workout with 30 more Squats and 30 more Merkins.

TIME

For those of you counting at home that was an ass ton of Merkins and Squats.

COT

Announcements: Extinction Run, Pushing Rocks, Q vs Q
