      • DQ
      • Helicopters
      • Arm circles
      • Squats
    • Move to the pavilion to work through a variety of ground & pound exercises

    An injury/weather friendly Q to start off the weekend.

    God is good all of the time!

    • COP
      • SSH
      • IW
      • DQ
      • Helicopters
      • Arm circles

        • Pickle pounders
        • APDs
        • Monkey humpers
    • Beast
      • Burpees
      • WWII sit-ups
      • HRM
      • Squats
      • Side crunches – each side
      • Crab cakes
    • Mosey to the pull up bars – each man does 7 pull-ups 3x while the PAX does the following:
      • FM
      • Flying nuns
      • H2H
    • Mosey to the bleachers for a Lindsey with derkins and bench kicks
    • COT with YHC taking us out

    Great work from the PAX today.  Handshake double dipped yesterday morning with the kids out of the house so a brief ode to him and his creamy, white thighs in COP. 

    God is good all of the time!

  • No One Stays Dry

    Absent a few fart-sackers, five noble warriors assembled in the dew of the morning to a late-night Q volunteer.  Here is how it went down:

    • COP
      • SSH
      • IW
      • DQ
      • Helicopters
      • Arm circles
      • Suzanne Somers
      • Merkins
      • LBC
    • Cumulative beast
      • 180 HRM
      • 144 WWII sit-ups
      • 108 side crunches – each side
      • 72 monkey humpers
      • 36 2x crab cakes
      • Last round – 36 burpees as out of time
    • COT with YHC taking us out

    Great work from the PAX today.  Great to have Whitesnake back.  Too bad Horneydo and Handshake were not there.  Many of the PAX have been injured at some point in the last 6 months, so grateful hearts that we were able to come together and do some ground and pound.  The ground was moist to say the least, so no one went home dry. 

    God is good all of the time!
