YHC hasn’t Q’ed in a while so when BOS mentioned having an open spot at The Yank I took it. Most of our PAX know’s I fancy myself to be a DJ of sorts and it was time to bring out the jams once again. Fair warning or motivation was thrown out on Slack the day before. Maybe that’s why we had 2 FNGs and a Cotter show to know! Here’s what happened…
El Tigre brought out his daughter’s boyfriend (memories of Broke and Golddigger anyone?), Boudin brought out his brother-in-law and Oh Wow was back after a couple year hiatus. Obviously they all heard the hits would be played this morning. The disclaimer was given and we had a lengthy warm-up of 10 Goofballs IC.
Mosey down to the Pit for stage 1
The mid-90s classic “Return of the Mack” by Mark Morrison – On every time he says “you lied” do a burpee and every “return” do a merkin. Good for getting the blood pumping.
Mosey around the corner to the street with all the parking spaces for the classic Bill Withers jam “Lovely Day”. Right about when we were going to the funny guy Roscoe tried to override the DJ action but the mutiny was short lived. Lunge walk toward Main Street until he starts saying “lovely day” then do high knees until he stops. When he does go back to lunge walking.
Mosey across the tracks to the alley of death. During Usher’s party song “Yeah” we hold a V-Up position and every time he says “yeah” contract to the full “V-up. This was really really hard and most had to modify to LBCs and whatnot.
Mosey back to the big Glenway Avenue lot for Fall Out Boy’s “I Know What You Did in the Dark”. Many might say this isn’t a good song but it’s fast paced and perfect for doing karaoke back and forth across the lot, so that’s what we did the whole time. Heart rate is going now!
Stay where we are for the F3 standard Roxanne. This time we’ll hold the plank position and every time Roxanne is said we do a full L and R shoulder tap. Feel the burn.
Mosey around the corner while listening to Roscoe’s death metal stuff. Good gracious! Stop on Main Street and grab some curb or brick shelving for MC Hammer’s “Can’t Touch This”!!! Every time he says “can’t touch this” we do a dip and when he’s not saying that do Rocky Balboa’s on the curb.
Mosey to the wall at the vet’s office, hold the people’s chair while LL Cool J sings “Mama Said Knock You Out”. Every time he says knock you out do an air press or air punch. It’s a pretty long song and holding the people’s chair the whole time sucked.
Mosey back across the tracks and up the sidewalk into the park to the covered picnic tables. Do step ups while Sevendust rocks out “Black”. The volume was up and that was good because four minutes of step ups is a lot.
Stay at the picnic tables for the finale “Flower” by Moby. We F3 guys know this one as “Bring Sally Up”. It sucks but will burn our your abs like nothing else. It was great.
Mosey down to the Yank statue for a couple minutes of plank and then we’re done.
