4 men mosied through the mean streets of Riverwood Plantation, stopping at every light post to do something that involved standing. The ground was a balmy 24 degrees and these old knees and me new Sherpa lined sweat pants could not afford to taste asphalt. Bringing my 13 year old son, War Eagle along for his 2nd consecutive Diablo post brought the median age down to a robust 47.5. We attacked the hill and each mailbox on the right with a vigor usually reserved for a Saturday line at Dynasty Buffet when the crab legs are in short supply. We rucked with a combo of squats, imperial walkers, Abe Vigodas, Moroccan Night Clubs, monkey humpers, Rocky Balboas and dips. We prayed it out and scrambled for work. Sledge-O-Matic, Hermie, War Eagle and Les Nessman.

As easy as 1/23…
We began with 1 rep each of Merkins, squats, dips, imperial walkers and LBC’s. We then journeyed 123 feet and returned for sets of the same in the enumeration of 7 reps, 15, 20, 20 and finally 50….for a total of 123 reps of each exercise.
Se moved on to Kettle Bells with 1 rep each of curls, presses, swings and triceps extensions. We did 7, 15 and 20 reps of each. We moved on to some flutter kicks, Iron man, lateral crunches and superman.
Voodoo finished us out with 8 minutes of stretching.

‘Twas the morn before Christmas and in the gas house three creatures were stirring early at the house. On Hermie on Nessman go walking with sledge down Union Road to the waffle house edge, do all the talking turn around and walk back then get to your computer and post it on slack. Watts Up’s harassment more than a week post, keeps Nessman haunted like Christmas past ghost. As they walked down the road and the work out did end it was circle of trust and said prayers for their friends. For all of our families and Hermes “M” Flo’s post Covid emergence and get us prepared for January 9 convergence. As I got in my Honda and I drove out of sight I knew I’d be dressing as the fat man the very next night. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
We rucked just shy of 3 miles and logged plenty of squats, we did some merkins and some mountain climbers, one round of Abe Vigodas and a very short Klaw. We meandered through the rolling pathways of Martha Rivers and around the backside of Riverwood Plantation. Dry Rub, El Toro, Pew Pew, Tube, Sledge, Linus, Outhouse and Les Nessman had the Q.
October 3,2020
50, 40, 30, 20 and 10 was the playbook on a chilly morning in the pain lab. Hermie, Voodoo, HIPPA, Sledge-o-matic, Clavin, an FNG (Pew-Pew) and Les Nessman ran the routine. We started with 50 Merkins, Squats, LBC, Chest Presses, KB Swings, Rocky Balboa’s, Dips and Moroccan Night Clubs. We then moseyed, dealer’s choice across the lot and back for 40 reps of each, followed by 30m 20 and ultimately 10. We completed our leisurely day with a little Merry while we waited for the much slower, much older Boot camp boys to bring up the rear.
We hit Planet Fitness and the CVS before stopping by Fidelity Bank on the way home. Did some squats and other stuff along the way.
We vented, ranted, talked and it was a good time.
Everyone should come have some Sammich.
Diablo Sammich, Britches!
