  • Difference of opinion

    3 grown A$$ HIM showed up to see if Doozy really could figure out how to download a Tabata Timer App onto his Iphone. Like that we start with a 5 minute warm up, timer has everything scheduled where all YHC had to do was call the exercises. First lap was set to 2:30 and a request was made to get a little more time on the next lap. YHC was able to adjust the lap time to 3:00 but that going to shorten the overall time. The last lap was a once around, numbers/ names and Applesauce took us out.

    NMS: @applesauce is a fan of the loosing team from this weekend and was able to provide all the reasons why they might have lost to the Hoosiers this Saturday. 🤷‍♂️

  • This ain’t the Lounge

    5 Bootcamp junkies and 3 runners hit the mean streets of Midlothian to see if the last beatdown before the holiday would be a bit more Lounge like than a normal SOT. Despite how hard Orange Crush tried to push the issue YHC had a loose plan and shear determination to shave off some access calories before they get added back on tomorrow.

    Mosey to the front of the school, various stretches and the usual DQ’s and Helicopter warm up. Through in a new curve ball with what I call Weeble Wobble Merkins, a merkin in a 4 count where the first down is to the right and the second down (third count) is to the left.

    Mosey back one door for a partner type triple check, the exercises where dips, incline merkins and decline merkins

    Mosey back to the main parking lot for some lunges. What happens when you have a wide open parking lot? Parking lot merkins of coarse, it was about here when OC realized this was not going to be a lounge like ordeal.

    Mosey to the hill, team partner hill repeats. First man up calls an exercise PAX does the exercise while the first man runs to the bottom of the hill and back repeto until entire team has gone. Each HIM calls an exercise for his team to do while he’s running.

    Mosey down the hill repeto but going up hill

    Mosey the back way to the school, to the track for a 4 corners circle style. 10 merkins at the 50, 20 WWIIs at the far end, 30 Jump squats at the opposite 50, (20 LT Dans, 20 squats)

    BTTF, Numbers / Names Don Draper took us out

    Coffee at Starbucks

    NMS: Lots of good conversation and stories about Thanksgiving and what plans everyone has. Talk of kids that are home and kids that will be going away to school soon.

  • 3 dudes, 0 plans

    YHC made it to BWES with no plan to find Bullseye and coming in hot was Singer. None of us had any real plan of where to run but Singer suggested we move in one direction and the road would open up to ideas.

    Terrington turn left at the first street out and back, right to the park hit the extra parking lot, out to JRHS to the end of the road and back to BWES.

    4 miles on the nose and as flat as we could make it

    Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS: YHC thinks the three of us have found every way to run a minimum of 4 miles and find almost no hills in an area known for its hills.

  • Lets use the track

    YHC had another solo beatdown once the runners left. Why not use the track and the cover next to the building to stay dry?

    Circle of 1 with some warm ups

    On the track around the 50 yard line 10 incline merkins on the bench, at the top of the track 20 squats, at the opposite side near the 50 dips and then at the bottom of the track near the building WWII repeto 3 times with various same exercises

    on the back side of the building using the hill, three times up and down with an exercise at the bottom

    on to the home side of the track 11’s on the steps and Wedding Singer joins me

    BTTF and stop for wall sits and toe taps

    Numbers / Names Singer took us out

    NMS: Watch out for the senior bus driver that will run you over in his car to get to that bathroom at the bottom of the hill

  • It sounded fun in my head

    SOT is back or at least YHC is trying to will it back to life. As the first back open SOT YHC thought it would be good to do the doors.

    5:30 and the runners are off so YHC Mosey’s to door #1 for a quick warm up.

    Doors:

    1 -17 Merkins and LBC’s the number equivalent to the door you are at

    17-20A Squats and WWIIs – 20B Mekins

    21-33 Squats and WWIIs

    BTTF – stretches and V-ups

    Meet up with the runners Numbers / Names DD took us out (see MOT BB for his report)

    NMS: A good beatdown is never as good when you don’t have people to share in the misery. Hopefully word will get out about SOT being back in business and this once great AO will be great again.

  • Give them the finger

    The usual suspects came out of the Gloom for a breezy but relatively warm run around what is known as the lower fingers. Out of the BWES parking lot across the street up and down each cul-de-sac and down to the park for 4 miles

    Numbers / Names Bullseye took us out

    NMS: Run a mile with a friend and learn how different and yet how the same your lives really are

  • When you wish upon a star

    11 of the worlds finest HIM graced the parking lot of Twin Team to see how loungy Doozy could be. In order to not be added to the probation list with Rosie, YHC got our 1 burpee max out of the way right at 5:30.

    Mosey slalom through the handicap signs and wait for the clown car to unload. Circle up with various non counted exercises

    Mosey to the JRHS parking lot for some more stretches

    Mosey to the benches at the school and partner up for touch a pole, Partner 1 touches 3 light poles in the parking lot while partner 2 does exercises

    Mosey to the second lot repeto with different partner and different exercises.

    Mosey to the swamp use the stands bear crawl up mosey around down, High knee lunge up mosey around and down, Crab walk up mosey around and down (Rosie is the only one that completed it correctly)

    Mosey BTTF but bear crawl up the hill before crossing the field

    Circle up for Mary (abs)

    Numbers / Names Wet Bandit took us out

    NMS:

    Watch what you wish for especially around OC. Rodeo Clown asked if we had seen the shooting stars this morning to which Boberry asked if he made a wish and with no hesitation and perfect comedic timing OC said “here I am”. Coffee was made by Last Call and a good time was had.

  • Cover charge

    2 suspicious looking criminal suspects appeared from the misty gloom, at least that is what is on the police report, filed by the 2 officers that are typically at WDog waiting for shift change.

    The cover charge for today was getting to be the test subject for a new Doozy infused beating. We found that it was brutal and the counting was off so that will get modified before YHC comes up with a name for it. More to come later

    Hitch and YHC headed to the stage where we stayed most of the time got in a full body workout and stayed dry for the most part.

    BTTF Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS: Numbers continue to be low at WDog but the faithful few will keep the lights on

  • Doozy Q, lounge style

    7 go getters made their way to Twin Team to see how loungy Doozy could make a Q.

    Slaughter start with stretches 😁 of all sorts, DQ’s, Helicoptors and various other lounge worthy exercises capped of with everyone’s favorite part of Man Killers 1,1,1,1

    Mosey to basket ball court 4 corners

    Mosey to play ground triple check

    Mosey to the bus loop triple check

    Mosey back to basketball court 4 corners

    BTTF for a ab ring of fire

    Numbers/names

    NMS:

    YHC has gotten back into doing 5 workouts a week and having one that is a little more stretching and 2nd F is a nice way to end the week.

  • OS who? GO Blue!!!!

    7 Normal PAX and 1 fan of the team we shall not speak its name posted for a misty but pleasant 70 but sunny beatdown.

    Mosey to the circle for some stretches and a few merkins, a few LBC’s, some Ukrainian soldiers and some SSH’s

    Mosey to the amphitheater and partner up. Partner 1 LBC’s, Partner 2 runs the perimeter X3 second round American Hammers, third round Scrunchy Frog

    Repeto with different partner (Oyster chose the wrong group to run with) Partner 1 squats, partner 2 run, second round LT Dans, third round ???

    Mosey up to the top partner up again. Partner 1 step ups, partner 2 run to the bottom and bear crawl back up. Second round Box Jumps, third round dips

    Mosey back to the bottom (but first call Nancy back for cheating down the stadium)

    Circle up because Bodos wants to do Man Killers, what kind of leader doesn’t give the people what they want?

    Mosey back to the top and back to the circle Ring of fire 10 Burpees OYO, 10 No Cheat Merkins OYO, and because Nancy tried to distract YHC and I forgot we already did them 10 Burpees OYO

    Mosey BTTF

    Numbers / Names Bodos (the professional) took us out (the customary F3 appearance fee was rendered for his services and the public speaking was at cost)

    NMS:

    YHC hasn’t Q’ed Dogwood in a while and forgot there is allot more to explore however a head lamp may be required. Great conversation, GO Blue!!! and GO Navy!! Just to start something with Gomer and a few others in the PAX 😁
