The theme of the workout was upper body.  Each of the exercises engaged the arms in some way.

Routine was to perform a set of exercises at the flag with the block and then proceed to the 4 corners of Doty Park and perform an exercise at each corner. Rinse and repeat.

Moleskin:  The Q has been busy building a brick patio so the legs were weak. So why not focus on the guns for the entire workout?   That was the plan.  I promised to make the workout “fun” in the preblast.   Hopefully the Pax thought my idea of “fun” was fun.  If not, their arms look a bit bigger now.

Intro: Last minute sub for Chedda had Mobo scrambling for a meaningful workout.  After 3 years of Qing, Mobo decided to finally resort to doing a dora.

F3 Mission Statement: “To plant, serve and grow small workout groups, in order to reinvigorate male community leadership.” -Dred

Weather: workout worthy

Overhead Press (100 count)

WWI Situps (200 count)

Squats with block (300 count)

Moleskin: Tried to live up to a Chedda Tuesday workout.  The burpees added an interesting twist to the dora which was not well received by the Pax.    The saving grace was that it was February, not July.

Count:  8

Weather:  Sunny, hot, humid and 100% chance of sweat.

COP:  TTT x 10 IC; Jumping Jack Medley (10 each), LBACs

The Thang:  Grab a block and meet at end of soccer field.

Perform set of 10 of following exercises with block ( Up & Over, Curls, Squats, Flutter Kicks).  Run forward to other end of field and plank up until 6 is in.

Perform set of 10 of following exercises  ( Merkins, Alternating Shoulder Taps, Monkey Humpers, WWI Situps).  Run backward to other end of field and plank up until 6 is in.

Rinse and repeat.  Able to complete 6 rounds.

Stow Blocks and return to flag.

Mary:  No time for Mary.

Naked Moleskin:  YHC was prepared to modify workout due to the weather conditions but the PAX held strong.  Maybe that is why there was so little mumble chatter.    Middle of workout was interrupted by several sirens so the PAX reluctantly did their mandatory 10 burpees.   When I noticed AED tossing the block down, I reminded the PAX about the broken block rule (10 burpees for all and 20 for the guilty party).  So what happened at the end of the workout?  Yep, Creeper became very popular while we all did burpees again.   The only bright side was YHC was unable to get in his gauntlet of Mary that he had prepared.

Back in time to 1959

Warm Up:  TTT, SSH, Imp Walkers,

Thang:  Get block back to flag.

YHC will be 62 tomorrow.   That means I was born in 1959.   It also means I am living in my 8th decade so to start off we are going to do a Burpee for each decade I have been alive.  Each burpee will have increasing merkins.  So the eighth burpee will have 8 merkins.   Follow OC.

In 1959:

Hawaii became the 50th state.   We are going to do Island Hoppers by hopping up and down each of the tables in the pavilion.   One table for each of the 8 islands.    Follow YHC through the island tour.

The Barbie Doll was launched.   In her honor we are going to curls for the girls.  We are going to do these in slow cadence 4 count.  First set completed 31x, Second set completed 31x

Two monkeys survived a Russian space flight.   In honor of those two monkeys named Able and Miss Baker we are going to do two exercises.   First exercise is the Russian Twist (American Hammer). First set completed 31x, Second set completed 31x.  Second exercise is the Monkey Humper.  First set completed 31x, Second set completed 31x.

The top movie of 1959 was “Journey to the Center of the Earth”.   So we are going to start digging.   Grave Diggers on cue. First set completed 31x.

Top TV Shows of 1959 included The Twilight Zone.   When we think of twilight, we think evil spirits and ghosts.  So we will honor it by doing Gut Busters.   When the Ghostbuster theme song starts, we will plank up and do one burpee each time we hear “ghostbusters” and return to plank. Repeat until song is complete.  Four minutes long, 19 burpees.

In Cuba in 1959, Fidel Castro and his revolutionaires overthrew the Cuban government.  We are not going to honor his revolution but stand in defiance.  While we stand, we are going to do OVHD Press. First set completed 31x, Second set completed 31x.

Another popular TV shows in 1959 was Dragnet.   Lots of murders solved on these shows. So we will do Murder bunnies.  Up and back (about 50 yds total)

MARY:   Flutter Kick 31x IC, WW1 Situps until time up (46 total)

DEVO:  “It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.”  Aristotle

Weather:  Calm between the driving rain storms

Warmup: TTT, Monkey Humpers, SSH Variations

THANG:  Mosey to shed and get block return to open grass area.   Q calls the Exercise of choice and the PAX runs to first spot (5 Burpees), returns to start, runs to 2nd spot (10 jump squats), returns to start, runs to end of open area (15 Merkins), returns to start.  Plank up until 6 in.  Rinse and repeat.

Exercises: Up and Overs, Curls for Girls, Ovhd Press, Damn Its,

Change up of routine to 5 Burpees, 10 Monkey Humpers, 15 WWI Situps and all returns running backwards

Exercises: Tricep Extensions, Bent Over Rows, Flutter Kicks

Stowed blocks.

MARY:  No time for Mary

Moleskin:  The Q was unpredictable on the number of reps which kept the PAX wondering how many at the start and not knowing how many more were left to do.  That’s what makes being the Q better than being one of PAX. Placebo provided the Bourbon Balls to cap off a good night.  Cheers!

Devo:  As a HIM, you need to be deliberate and intentional in your actions.  Don’t say “I don’t care”.  Be the leader.

Note: Bellator did a SCS with a 2-mile run to the park, did the workout and then 2-mile run home.  RESPECT!
