15 kettlebell and/or hammer wielding studs poured into the CM parking lot knowing they not what they were in for entirely but knowing it was a first course of Gumbo followed by a coffee chaser. YHC has been reacquainting himself with his kettlebells and the confines of the Circus, and it was great to get back on the Q sheet there. More to come this year!
Mosey – yes move swiftly without your bell – around the bus loop and back to the parking lot for COP, starting with 8 burpees for the 8 sets of knees covered up and not abiding by the SOP protocols. Other exercises included some stretches, some typical non-KB exercises and some questionable, unnamed KB exercises (possibly made up).
THANG:
Carry your weight to the bus terminal cover and partner up for a Triple Check (NOTE to Ronnie – YHC noticed in COP we had a perfect 15 so we hit the Triple Check first). Runner/Timer had a choice – either wall sit holding your weight for a 60-count or walk your weight, waiter carry style, to the end of the cover and back. Other PAX did sit and press and merkins – again merkins had a choice (I’m a benevolent Q) of offset merkins or merkin pull-throughs or mix and match…just get to work!
Lindsay’s – in Jville’s honor we did Lindsay’s. 30 goblet squats and 10 swings, then carry any way you’d like across the parking lot to the flag, and do 25-15, then 20-20, then 15-25 and then, ouch, 10-30.
Circle up for about 7 minutes of Mary finisher with some weighted flutters, boat and canoe, american hammers and shoulder taps, among others.
Numbers, Names, Announcements, Prayers and YHC took us out.
Announcements:
- The Bridge is on and Pigskin has the Q and the clown car – this Saturday. Beat the snow and ice and get all 3 F’s in one morning.
- Frozen Triangle 2/7. Get Ready
YHC is thankful for all the various options of AOs and groups and workouts we have to choose from. Whether we decide to show up to swing some KBs, hit SCCC for an exclusive foursome, get up extra early for some ruck miles or to stand FirstWatch, hit a run AO or whatever the h___ WTH is, or just go to the closes bootcamp – we have options and variety and always welcoming faces and men ready to get after it and motivate each other (again in different ways). It is great to be able to do this and keep things interesting and keep the relationships building. Keep up the great work men. Get to a new or different AO, or like me, return to an AO you haven’t been to in a while and take the Q. Keep pushing!
Thanks, Offshore, for the coffee. Good stuff my friend and great 2nd F. PS – Wegmans did have chicken and milk – phew!
No More Gumbo For You!
