10 strong Pax showed up for the first gloomy Midoriyama Q after the time switch. Various excuses were made from some no shows; hate to see it. Blart noticed three deer walking from the softball field to the horseshoe pits but they didn’t stay for the work.

Warmup: SSH, Low Slows, Monkey Humpers for tardy Montross, Hillbillies and MNC’s.

Mosey to the distant left side parking lot for…

crowd favorite Dirty Mac Deuce: 12 Reps, Arms, Legs, Core

Set #1 Werkins, Low Slows, Flutters x 12 IC, run a lap around the lower parking lot.

Set #2 Burpees 12 OYO (as promised in the warmup, but no Slaw), Monkey Humpers, Freddie Mercs x 12 IC, run a lap.

Set #3 MNC’s, Mountain Climbers, Big Boys x 12 IC, run a lap.

Set #4 CDD’s, Calf Raises, Dying Cockroaches x 12 IC called by Broke so I could catch my breath, run a lap.

Set #5 Diamond Merkins, Lunges, LBFC’s x 12 IC, run a lap.

Stay here for the next Thang.

Partner Up.

P1 runs across the parking lot for 10 Merkins at the sidewalk while P2 begins 100 Squats then switch.

200 Flutter Kicks (count right leg)

300 LBC’s

Mosey back for some Mary and a couple of Wojo stretches. Thanks Wojo.

Throughout the workout I would read a line from a few of my favorite movies and ask everyone to guess the movie. This didn’t go very well as most of these kids haven’t seen any movies made before 2010.

Some of my favorite movie lines.

“A real woman could stop you from drinking.” “It’d have to be a real big woman”. – from Arthur (I could’ve done 25 lines from this movie. Seems Defib may be the only one who remembers).

“The average Russkie, son, don’t take a dump without a plan” – from The Hunt for Red October

“Do or do not, there is no try”. – Star Wars

“A man who doesn’t spend time with his family can never be a real man” – Godfather

“Can you fly this plane and land it?” “Surely you can’t be serious.” “I am serious and don’t call me Shirley.” – Airplane

“You tell ’em I’m coming and hells coming with me” – Tombstone

“Do me this favor. I won’t forget it. Ask your friends in the neighborhood about me. They’ll tell you I know how to return a favor.” – Godfather 2

“It’s a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he’s got and all he’s ever gonna have.” – Unforgiven

and one I forgot to read… “You’re not the man I knew ten years ago.” “It’s not the years honey, it’s the mileage.” – Raiders of the Lost Ark

Thanks to all who posted, Great to see Blart back while still going through the dreaded Plantar’s pain. Great to see Suess, Wiki and Radar back in the afternoon.
