Maybe This Sucked Less

Biggest take away from this particular day…. 21 is divisible by 3, well normally.

So between the light poles going up the hill, we did trio runs with exercises.  After a few rounds, we moved up to the next set and did more with new exercises.  Made a point to add random event to the team members.

Once at the roundabout, we came back via Lakewood Rd.  Thanks to an unnamed PAX (though not Breaker Breaker (he suggested SSH)),  Bobby Hurleys were called at the corresponding lights.  There are lots of lights down that hill.

The Pledge of Allegiance was recited.

Announcements announced.

Prayer Requests Noted.

Conclusions

If you came to read what happened, well S.T.K.

 

A few observations from today….

8 Feral, Ferocious Mountain Lions were spotted.

There are 0-11 light poles on River Ridge Drive.

Gaston’s hill is still steep.

The laundromat’s wall is not slippery.

Food Lion’s is.

Ace’s is not.

There is still a ramp behind the gym for no apparent reason.

The wall in front of Terminix still sound and sturdy.

No idea what happened at Deliverance, but all of them were on their backs when we arrived.

The Pledge of Allegiance was recited.

Announcements were made.
**** Impromptu Convergence Jun 10th (Yes on a Monday).  All other AO’s closed. ***

Prayer requests noted.

EZ Rider took us out.

Saturday @ Folsom

We did stuff.

Four Corners, Teams of 3 exercises x 2 with a little mosey-ing thrown in for good measure.

Body weight and some gear.

Announcements were announced.

Prayer Requests Noted.

The Pledge of Allegiance was Pledged.

Backblast is late, but done.

Watts Up powering down.

Eleventy

The intent was to take Lifeline for a Birthday Q.   Alas that couldn’t happen, so let’s do it a day late.

Started with a disclaimer and then off we go, winding through the parking lot stopping at the center of each lane to do 9 reps of an exercise. The exercises included LBC, Flutter, Squat, Calf Raise, CDD and Merkin. ( aka 6 stops x 9 reps). Certain members of the Pax didn’t understand. (Even when given hints with those who can Math)

From there we moved to the parking lot in front of the school.  Here we did Route 66, except you start with 2 and end at 10  (66-1-11)
At this point YHC doesn’t remember the exercises, just said Pax still didn’t get it

Let’s try again, over at the loading dock …

Dora.  Rep for all three sets was 108 (If you don’t know why at this point you can keep doing the eleventy the Pax in question announced as the rep count )

On to the wall for sits, donkey kicks and dirty hookups .  In keeping with the theme (in my head) the counts for two Pax was two higher than everyone else.  At the time it made sense or I too was confused by the eleventy reps we were doing .

In rereading this, I think you had to be there to understand…

The Pledge of Allegiance was done ( I think)

Announcements made.

Prayers noted and lifted.

Thanks to all who came to celebrate with me.

Stolen Q @ GOAT

YHC took the Q from the infamous Open Q sometime Wed.  Hope he didn’t have too much planned…

YHC has slept a few times since this, so this is the best of the recall… (like pretty sure we did The Pledge of Allegiance, but not sure if it was the beginning or end)

Started with brief mosey the long way to the upper parking lot.

Did some warmup – SSH, Stretching, Merkins?, LBCs?

Move to tunnel for some wall sits and air presses.

Up and over to the street/church rarely used.

Route 66 in the church parking lot – twice.

Calf raises on the steps.

Pair up for some double-dirty 11s on the half-pipe ish – merkins and squats.

Paused half-way to reset the bat flippers and get the group back together.

Back to the tunnel for wall sits, donkey kicks, and dirty hookups.

Then back to the flag.

Announcements were announced.  Prayer Requests Noted.

Thanks to all for coming out in the gloom.

Until next time.

Watts Up Powering Down.

 

Jester @ Members Only

Eh Y’All brought a Kotter – Greenhouse

Ruckers rucked.  Runners Ran.

All returned safely and on-time.

Many stayed to discuss Jester.

The Pledge of Allegiance, Announcements and Prayer Requests were all included in the post activities.

Eh Y’All took us out.

We Did Stuff

Started with the Pledge of Allegiance.  Counted off…

The warm up consisted of a little mosey and a little exercise on our way to the bunker.

At the bunker, we used some newly acquired (for the Yank) blocks for some overly complicated work. (or so YHC was told)

After that, we hid said blocks…. Let’s see if these stay.

Moseyed up to the track for some grinder type work, along with some Dirty calves.

Back to the pull up bar for some hanging knee lifts and other ab work.

On to the Yank for a few dips and Orangeman’s favorite exercise.

Named Jelly Roll’s 2.0.

Did some announcements.

Noted prayer requests and praises.

 

YHC took us out.

 

Nothing fancy, just like this BB.  Although there was a fair bit of mumblechatter, but who listens to all that…

 

Watts Up Powering Down…

Slammin the Coasts

WarmUp Consisted on some Wojo-type hip loosening exercises and a few laps around the parking lot.

We spent the rest of the time broken into a group of 3 and a group of 4.

Group 1 does an exercise A, while a member of said group runs from basketball hoop to the East Coast and does 5 slam balls (15#) and then returns.

Group 2 does an exercise B, while a member of said group runs from basketball hoop to the West Coast and does 5 slam balls (10#) and then returns.

Continue until all the pax of larger group finishes.  Then switch coasts.  Switch back and on to a different set of exercises.

We worked our way from shoulders down to calves…

Time was called.

The Pledge of Allegiance was completed.

Announcements made…

Prayer Requests lifted…

Watts Up Powering Down….

Hi-Lo

The problem with waiting so long on the backblast is all the details.

We did a warmup, not sure what it was.  We also did the Pledge of Allegiance, although I am not sure if it was the beginning or the end.

Moseyed to Fidelty bank via Old Neal Hawkins.

There we broke out the deck of death.  Each PAX had to pick a card, but before picking decide if their card was going to be higher or lower than the card before it.

If they were correct, then we did the exercise (10+number cards, face=25, Aces=50, Jokers=Pax choice)

If they were wrong, add 3 burpees

After each PAX had gone, a lap around the bank before the next round.

We didn’t make it through the entire deck before having to head back.

Announcements were made.

Prayers were noted and lifted.
