boom

13 of the Gashouse’s finest posted to midoriyama to break sweat with their brothers.  serious mumble chatter before the launching point about yhc with the q and the probability of us finding a wall at some point.  we shall see… 1730 hits – time to clock in, men.

warmups: people’s choice.  short sale with seal jacks, gomer with big boy sit-ups, blart with merkins, pockets with freddy mercury aaaaaaaaaaaaand i can’t remember the last one. sorry to whomever it was.  let’s mosey.

mosey to the soccer field for bombs.  p1 exercises, p2 makes a lap around the soccer field.  50 burpees, 100 overhead claps, 150 merkins, 200 big boy sit-ups and 250 squats. always a real crowd pleaser.

line up for a bataan death march.  it’s an indian run but much more fun.  the line starts, man at the back does 5 burpees.  upon completion, he runs to the front. continue until everyone has done burpees.

at this point time is getting low so we head back to the launching point. circle up for 101 lbc IC and 15 flutter kicks IC. finished with 22 merkins for the vets.  time is up.

COT: announcements – defib, tool time, pizza man and def leopard running a marathon this weekend. go get it, man.  prayer requests- pizza man and his family. chum during this time in his life.  each other. BOM: yhc took us out.

as always, it was an honor to be amongst you men. very thankful for not only the workouts, but the bonds being formed.  the accountability and all the other goods things.  thankful for all of you guys.

gashouse visits the mountains

10 men resisted the comforts of the fartsack to take their DRP.   The men of Asheville were gracious to let YHC be the Q today.   As their were no FNGs present (at the beginning), an abbreviated disclaimer was given.  I’m an idiot.  If you follow me, you’re also an idiot.   I am not a professional, just a guy merely giving suggestions.  Don’t die.

Warmups: Happy Jacks, CDD and Toy Soldiers all X 15IC and Moroccan nightclubs X 50IC.  YHC tried to bring new things to Asheville, very pleased to see the warmups, minus the Moroccan nightclubs, needed a demo.

After a mosey to another parking lot (brief mumble chatter about gashouse moseys being more like sprints) we circled up for deconstructed burpees.  Just before starting, two men joined the fun.  Squats, leg thrusts, merkins, leg thrusts, up.  Start with 10, work our way down to 1.

mosey again to the covered area by the school entrance.  YHC wanted to find some dry area as to not make the regulars hate me.   Time for a little Huckleberry 123.   Similar to Dora 123, but with a little twist.   Instead of counting in aggregate, each man completes their exercise while their partners runs laps around the parking lot.  P1 runs, P2 does 100 flutter kicks – switch.  P1 runs, P2 does 200 mountain climbers – switch.  P1 runs, P2 does 300 lbc.

mosey around to the start of the school for a favorite of YHC; wall work.   On the wall for 25 donkey kicks OYO.  then ascending testicles.  10 merkins at 15 degrees, 10 at 45 degrees and 10 at as close to 90 degrees as you can get.   Strong work by all, especially strong work by Pillsbury.    Back on the wall for hip slappers x 10 on each side.  then circle up for 10 burpees OYO.

mosey back to the launching point in just enough time for 22 merkins to honor our vets.  TIME.

COT – announcements: Q schedule was filled for next week.  prayer requests: pray for each other.  BOM: YHC took us out in prayer.

Moleskin – I appreciate the opportunity to Q, men.  I really enough being amongst this group.  It’s easy to see the bonds that have been, and continue to be formed.   Keep pushing the rock and letting iron sharpen iron.  AYE!
