The GOAT – July 21, 2022

Well, I am glad I checked Team Up last night. I had forgotten, I had agreed to Q and was planning on FARTSACKING after the exciting Charlotte FC and Chelsea game.  So on a short four hours of sleep, I got myself ready and had a work out in mind with music.

As I arrived I only saw one other car (Pilgrim Progress) a short time later more cars started arriving. Tesla arrived at the nick of time as he does every post. How does he do it?

I saw a new face and introduced myself. We had Hot Corner from F3 Mint Hill joining us today. He was visiting his dad who recently had shoulder surgery.

After a quick disclaimer and the Pledge of Allegiance we set off on on Front Street and circled up in the parking lot at 8th and 10th Avenue.

WARM UP:
Goofball x 20 IC
Windmill x 10 IC
Seal Jacks x 15 IC
MNC x 10 IC
Imperial Walker x 10 IC
Plank Jacks x 15 IC
Broga Stretches

15 Minute AMRAP:
6 Jumping Squats
8 Merkins
10 Freddie Mercury
12 SSH

*** After each round increase the rep by 2.

After the AMRAP we headed to THUNDER DOME as Orangeman referred to it. Here we did 11’s. 10 dips at the top and one squat at the bottom.

When we finished we had about 8 minutes remaining and headed back the way we began on Front Street, but this time we did five hand release merkins at each light pole (5 in total).

As the clock struck zero, I called 5 burpees for the train that we saw on Front Street. LOL.

Tequila Sunrise – July 1, 2022

It was a beautiful morning and 9 of us came to play ball this Friday,

We ran to the back side of the school to do our warm-up and did some Hillbilly Walkers, Moroccan Night Clubs, and Toy Solider Squats.

We made our way back to the baseball field for the main events

First up was a 7 of diamonds (4 base accumulator)

at home plate, we started with 7 Bonnie Blairs

Added 14 flutters at 1st base

21 CDD’s at 2nd

28 LBC’s at 3rd

Then made a 2nd trip around the bases taking one of the exercises off at each base until we were left with just the Bonnie Blairs

Then some good old fashioned competition was in order so we played some F3 Baseball.

We split into teams and each team started at a different base

When each team completed a cumulative rep count of 40 reps of each exercise they advanced to the next base via bear crawl and lunge walk

The team who completed the bases the most times during the remaining time won.

The exercises were : 40 merkins

40 Squats

40 PLank Jacks

40 burpees (we ran out of time before getting to these)

Back to COT and we were done!
