The Thang:

Line up on sidewalk around the circle @ the flag.  Reverse Indian Run (Lead man takes a lap around the circle while the remaining PAX sumo squat.  Once he makes it around to the back of the line the next man goes).

One mile run for time.  Once back at the flag circle back and find the six.

Set of 7s.  Squats and Calf Raises on Q.

Indian run to the picnic shelter closest to flag.  Set of 7s.  Dips and Carolina Dry Docks on Q.

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Men’s hike being postponed to mid-late April.

Devo: Lets go have coffee and convo @ Starbucks.

Moleskin:   Upon arrival it was raining.  Had been all night and it was cold.  During warm ups YHC mentioned to Stalker that he had contemplated calling audible on entire workout and moving it to the shelter.  Immediatley Stalker said, “If you would have moved to the shelter I would have been pissed”.  I got up @ 530 in the cold and rain and came out here… make it worth it.  I hope I accomplished that task.  Good to see Snooki back on this side of town.  He had to catch an early morning flight from Monks Corner to make it on time.   If you notice part of the workout was adjusted due to “time”.  Yea that was because that particular set of 7s was absolutely brutal.  Time wasn’t the issue.  If you can’t do it don’t Q it.

In the preblast YHC urged for 100% participation at coffeteria.  We accomplished that-ish.  Zamboni couldn’t make coffee but Borland showed up to replace him.  Everyone else made it. Good conversations were had.

Triple AAA – Accelerator Anniversary Anniliation

  • When: 20200528
  • QIC: Motherboard
  • The PAX: Cheetah, Dreamer (R), Zamboni, Mom Swap, Pink Slip, Masterload, Creeper, Space Balls, Wing Nut, Flip, Rush, Blackout, Flounder, Marlin (FNG)

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

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!

Weather: Sunny and cold (OK cold for Summervillians) turing into gloom at end.  Sunset in Doty Park, what could be better?

WU: TTT, Imp Walkers, Doggie Paddles

Grab a block and return to close end of horseshoe pits.  There are 3 rows of 4 walls at the Pits.

Thang:   Grouped up into 3 teams. Team member 1 bear crawls to last wall.   Then do 5 reps of Exercise #A at each wall, running between walls,  while rest of team does Exercise #B.  Rinse and repeat until entire team cycles through.

Exercise A                           Exercise B

Derkins                                 Flutter Kicks

Tricep Dips                          Squats

Step Ups (5 per leg)        Overhead Press

Derkins                                 Curls

MARY:  Unfortunately there was no time left but the Howling Monikeys will have to wait until next time.

Moleskin:  Pissed off the PAX early with a long duration of Flutter Kicks.  Hey, if it were easy, anyone could do it.  The Overhead Press was also a crowd pleaser.  Had a lot more on list but time flies when you are doing F3.

Weather: Rather wet but most of us don’t melt

FNGs: None

Warmup: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Abe Vigodas

Started under the Pavillion near the Block Shed.

THANG: Gave the blocks a break even though some of the PAX had to go fetch them because that’s what they are trained to do.   A new twist on the 90s, F3 style had the PAX perform exercise for 90 seconds on Q’s command.  After each exercise, the PAX would run to Pavillion on opposite side of Park and perform next exercise.  Rinse and repeat.

Exercises:

  1. Merkins
  2. WW 1
  3. Jump Squats
  4. Man makers
  5. Box cutters
  6. Monkey Humpers
  7. Bat Wings
  8. LBCs
  9. Tricep Dips
  10. Freddie Mercury
  11. Squats
  12. Burpee
  13. Iron Cross
  14. Step Ups
  15. Alt shoulder taps

Mary:  Saved time for one of my favorites, Planking up for the length of the song R.E.S.P.E.C.T (2:30) with merkins every time you hear “just a little bit”.  Gotta love the Queen of Soul.   Finished up Mary with LBACs.

Numberama: 14

Pledge Prayer Annoucement

Moleskin: After several Accelerators focus one on body part (arms, abs, legs), Motherboard did his part to include all of the above and achieve as much pain and subsequent soreness.  A 3 for 1 if you will.   Unfortunately for the PAX time ran out because the next exercise up was the Flutterkick.  Yep, that would have been a just ending but maybe next time?

Moleskin: Masterload’s 2.0s mistakenly stated they had something to eat before coming out to Accelerator. While running would make them Merlot, YHC prefers the beat down fashion of making them regret thinking my Q’s  are easy enough to do that. All had. Some broke wind…quite loudly. And we all got better.
