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

Moleskin:   The few times I have either Qed or attended a BC @ Accelerator we have met in the grass on the far side of the park near the gazebo.  Well there were kids practicing soccer there.  Would have been difficult to do a BC with them there so we relocated to the grassy area by where the blocks are stored.  My first time Qing 2 workouts in a day.  However, that wasn’t the greatest feat of the day.  Cheetah attended 3 BCs and a liquifaction.  BJDDAL (Bedrock-Jones DD, Accelerator and Liquifaction)  Dude is a stud.  Speaking of studs.  THREES COMPANY HELD PLANK FOR 4 DIFFERENT PLAYINGS OF THUNDERSTRUCK WITHOUT BREAKING PLANK ONCE!  A record that can only be tied.  Great work men.  Always enjoy posting at accelerator just rarely works out with my schedule.  It is a different animal working out in the afternoons.  I’ll take the sun not being out.    Thanks again for playing along gentleman!!

Triple AAA – Accelerator Anniversary Anniliation

Mobo’s annual anniversary Q to celebrate 37 years with the M.  You know what they say, “A good wife always forgives her husband when she’s wrong.” Works for me.  

Conditions: Sunny, warm & humid = perfect F3 Summerville weather.

WU: TTT, Imperial Walkers

Thang: Mosey to shed and get a block and 3 poles and back to open area.   While 3 people carry logs to other end of area and back, the Pax does an exercise of Q’s choice until all 3 are back and drop the logs.  If the count is greater than 37, the 3 loggers must do 5 burpees.  Rotate the loggers and repeat.  Exercises: Up&Overs, Flutter Kicks, Ovhd Press, WWIs, Curls, Magoos, Merkins, Bent Over Rows, Tricep Ext, Monkey Humpers, LBCs.

Mary: American Hammers x 37, Planks

Moleskin: The magic number 37 turned out to be a challenge for the loggers to get back in time for some exercises, hence burpees were prevalent.  It did make the loggers hustle especially when they heard the Pax count as they returned back.   Anything to avoid burpees.

FNG: Welcome Marlin

Beatdowns will continue…….

Conditions: Sunny, dry and a very mild 70ish.

WU: TTT, Don Quiote, LBACs, T-Claps

Thang: Since the date was 5-7-20, and I had a brain freeze on what to do, why not a routine of 5 Body Builders, 7 Merkins, and 20 reps of the following (rinse and repeat):

Damn Its, Flutter Kicks, Monkey Humpers, Overhead Press, Tricep Dips, Curls for Girls, Freddy Mercs, Boxcutters, Squats w/ Block

Mixed in one big lap around Doty Park and finished off with some Mary:

Mary: Front Plank, Side Planks (L & R), Heel Touches, Flutter Kicks

Moleskin: Great turnout! Much better to Q live than virtual.  Enjoyed the mumblechatter.  Welcome FNG Flounder!

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

Devo: Wisdom: Wisdom comes from experience and learning from others. Take the time to get to know your elders (grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbors) on a deeper level while they are still with us. Ask and listen to their stories when they were young. They are treasures. We can learn a lot from them.
