Sunrise Without the Sun

We had 16 HIM’s at tequila Sunrise for a dark post.

We started off with SSH, Right over left, Left over Right, Monkey Humpers, and calf raises.

 

The thang: Mosey over to the telephone poles. Route 66 to Davis Park parking lot. Popcorn* with different PAX calling out exercises along the way. In the parking lot I had a surprise in store. Pinto led the second half of the workout with a surprise VQ. His beatdown was in two rounds for 11’s. First round was merkins and low, slow squats, second round were CDD’s and Squat imperial walkers.  Great job by Pinto bringing the pain!

 

Mosey back to the parking lot at tequila  and close with the the COT.

*Popcorn is a term I made up on the fly just now when I’m too lazy to design a workout and call out random people during the workout to do it for me.

Singin’ In The Rain at The Yank

17 showed up this morning at the Yank, 15 complained that their hair got wet. Tesla cried the most.

Warmups: Immediately mosey to shelter (this is where Tesla started to cry) 15 SSH IC, 15 Moroccan Nightclubs IC, 15 Gravel Pickers IC, 15 LBC’s IC

The thing: Circle of death, add 10 to each numerical card, 25 for face cards and Jokers meant whoever pulled the card, called the exercise. After the 5th card was pulled, run 1 lap around the track and back (this is where Orangeman cried uncontrollably in the rain). After the lap was completed, a trivia question was answered and the corresponding workout if it was answered wrong. Then repeat for the next 5 cards, lap, trivia, more tears and complaining. Repeat until finally bacon was smelled and time was up.

Events: Rice ‘n’ Beans 3/12 5:30, Gear Ruck Next weekend before the Yank to Harris Teeter, Extinction Run 4/20 at Primal

Prayers: Anchorman, Fonda’s house, Breakers family, unspoken prayers

End in the COT and sprint to breakfast (it was the fastest they moved all morning)…Tesla stopped crying when we gave him a juicebox

HR Policies

The warmup: 15 SSH, 15 Gravel Pickers, Right over left, left over right, 15 seal jacks

Mosey to the bridge: bear crawl over the first half, lunge walk the second half, mosey over the next bridge and to the back parking lot of Goat island.

The workout, answer trivia questions related to events specific to Feb 22nd throughout history (including the first HR compliance-Tesla was probably the reason why) if the group answered correctly, it was 2 of the exercise, if they answered incorrectly it was 22. After each trivia question, run down and back the length of the parking lot.

22 squats, 2 Merkins, 22 LBC’s, 22 big boys, 2 HR Merkins, 22 monkey humpers (the answer was Florida, it only seemed appropriate to do monkey humpers),22 flutter kicks, 5 Burpees, 5 burpees for the train, 2 CDD’s, 67 calf raises.

Then we switched to 4 corners: 5 sets of one exercise at each corner, increase by 5 for 4 total sets: 5 flutters, 5 LBC’s, 5 merkins, 5 squats, 10 flutters, 10 LBC’s. 10 merkins, 10 squats, 15 flutters, 15 LBC’s, 15 merkins, 15 squats, 20 flutters, 20 LBC’s, 20 merkins, 20 squats.

Mosey back to start and lunge walk across both bridges.

End in the COT and lift each other up in prayer.

The Goat loves Taylor Swift

beat down: mosey from start to church lot, line up, answer the question, do the corresponding exercise then run to the opposite side and repeat.
squats, big boys, lunges,Bobby Hurleys, jump squats, hr merkins, calf raises, v-ups,
