    I’m running out of time and have to go to a job sight, no real NMS today feel free to add your thoughts below. Sorry if I missed a few things.

  • Tour De Batteau

    6 F3 champions made their way to Batteau for a DTH beatdown.

    At 5:28 YHC was coming into the AO hot and had to catch Bleeder leading the PAX in a quick mosey around the parking area. Ending at the Pickle Ball court for the COP.

    COP – Bleeder

    From what I can recall SSH, Merkins, LBC’s and possibly a couple other warm ups

    Mosey to the stone patio area

    5 incline merkins at the bottom 5 LBC’s at the top increase by 5 each trip back and forth

    Bleeder hands the Q to Face-plant and mosey to the bottom of the hill by the pond and partner up for a Dora

    100 LBC’s, 200 Flutter Kicks, 300 air squats

    Face-plant hands off the Q to Sippy Cup – Mosey to a spot between both staircase in front of the pond. Same partners run in opposite directions to the set of stairs on their sides. Bear Crawl up stairs to meet your partner at the top. WOW!!!

    Mosey to play ground area just behind tennis courts, partner pull-ups. Each partner trade pull ups starting at 1 and ending at 5

    Sippy Cup hands the Q to Doozy, Mosey back to Pickle Ball courts for a prostitute. 5 Merkins, 10 Carolina Drydocks, 15 Plankjacks, 5 Burpies. Time is called, head back to the flag.

    NMS:

    T-Claps to the PAX for picking up the Q and literally running with it. With a visitor to the AO this morning the PAX decided to take a tour of Batteau and show off what it has to offer. The Bear Crawls up the steps from Sippy Cup are actually outlawed in most of the continental United States and Canada but are sure to now be sprinkled into future Batteau Beatdowns and possibly make their way to a few other AO’s.

    YHC texted DTH once he got home to make sure he was okay, text back was that he stayed up late planning a Beat Down and forgot to set his alarm. He also reassured YHC that there will be a thorough beating next week to make up for his missing this week.

  • Does Kimchi mean Sh!t?

    8 cold but otherwise well conditioned men arrived and eagerly gathered in the gloom at Hoedown this morning.

    COP

    DQ’s, Helicopters, Cherry Pickers, flutter kicks and Kimchi twists

    Mosey to the teacher parking lot for Man killers

    Mosey to the ADA compliant sidewalk – as usual YHC was trying to make things up on the fly and failed. YHC decided to try to use the hand rails jumping from side to side but quickly realized the drop off on the outside could really get someone hurt, switch to dips.

    Mosey to the court for four corners.

    10 – Merkins, 20 – WWII, 30 – Plank Jacks, 40 – Squats

    Mosey around to the bottom parking lot

    11’s start with 10 – Merkins Bernie sanders across the parking lot up the small hill 1 – Monkey Humpers

    Mosey to the lower parking lot arrows follow them around in a Crab walk stopping at each arrow with 3 Merkins

    Mosey to side of lower Parking lot and partner up partner 1 – WWII partner 2 – run the length of the parking lot and back (X3)

    YHC wanted to use the small hill again and there was time left on the clock so 11’s on the hill. At the bottom 10 – Decline merkins at the top 1 – Inline merkin so on and so forth

    Back to the flag – 2 minutes still on the clock finish out with some American Hammers

    Number/Names YHC took us out

    NMS:

    When YHC was in the Navy on of his good friends would always say that “we are in deep Kimchi” whenever things got heated. YHC never asked what Kimchi meant but assumed it meant shit. YHC decided to ask Hitch Hiker what it really meant, Hitchhiker informed YHC that it actually is a way to make cabbage. However Cabbage twists does not sound as menacing as Shit Twists, so you do you and call them as you see them.

  • What’s the count????

    6 able bodied men showed up on a pleasant Timberwolf morning and this is how it went.

    COP

    DQ’s, Helicopters, Jasersize, Cherry Pickers. Mumble chatter was in rare high form as Wilson took the verbal lead during the Q’s cadence and causing the PAX to loose the actual count.

    Time to mosey to the bus parking loop

    circle up for 20 Nancy Karegans (stand on right leg while doing an SSH) followed by 20 Karate Kids (stand on left leg doing an SSH). Again mumble chatter is high and Wilson did 40 on the same leg, POG followed Wilsons lead and now Moseys to the right.

    Stay where we are for a variation of the triple check. Partner 1 American Hammers, Partner 2 is at the other end of Bus loop doing flutter kicks Partner 3 runs. The instructions seamed a little too intense at first but by the third round I think we got it right.

    Mosey to light pole alley

    Triple check Partner 1 balls to the wall, Partner 2 Plank, Partner 3 run to the end light post (about 5 posts)

    Mosey to tennis courts

    Prostitute – Corner 1 (10) WWII, Corner 2 (20) Plank Jacks, Corner 3 (30) Monkey humpers, Corner 4 (40) LBC’s

    Mosey back to flag in reverse from tennis courts doing 3 burpies at each light post until the gate, follow the perimeter of the school the rest of the way

    Number/Names

    YHC took us out

    NMS

    Mumble chatter was at an all time high this morning, so YHC figured it was his job to beat this out of the PAX. The triple check with balls to the wall, planks and a long run seemed to do the trick but just to be sure the prostitute was added for good measure. It’s not a real beat down unless you throw some burpies in there and we had some time to spare so it was either take the long way back to the flag or go directly back and finish with a Mary. YHC got a new pair of kicks yesterday so he decided to take the long way back and test them out.

  • No snow but down hill slalom at Twin Team

    11 skiers looking for some down hill action in the cold weather at Twin Team. Here is what went down and up and then back down again.

    Mosey to the back of the ES for COP on the basketball court

    DQ’s, Helicopters, Jazersizes, Hip stretchers, Heals to Heaven and LBC’s

    Recover to mosey and PAX notices that YHC has dropped some trinkets from his pocket. YHC may have made a remark about needing the trinkets for Twin Team. Lots of mumble chatter about how we should make a right turn and head toward the HS rather than the inevitable hill.

    Stop at the monkey bars to stretch the arms out but found the metal bars too slick to really waist our time on

    Mosey to the bottom of the circle at the hill

    A YHC favorite Man Killers to get the calves going and get the cardio ready

    To the top of the hill YHC dropping eight glow stick trinkets along the way on the left then on the right, on the left and then on the right

    At the top let the PAX know this will not be a Twin Team suicide but we will have some fun in a slalom skiing type down hill workout. Twin Team has eight letters and there are eight glow sticks on the hill. As we head down stop and do 10 sets of the exersize that fits the letter from Twin Team. T = Tempo Merkins, W = Imperial Walkers, I = Incline Merkins, N = I have Idea call it LBC’s, T = Tempo Merkins again, E = SSH’s (why not), A = (?) and M = Merkins

    YHC will do a better job planning out the letter to match the exercise next time.

    Get to the bottom, get in line and ride the chair back to the top. We couldn’t find a chair so we made our own (indigenous people run)

    Back down picking up the trinkets on the way down

    At the flag Merkin ring of fire

    Numbers / Names

    YHC took us out in a little different way asking the PAX to lay on their backs and look at the world in a different way. YHC has had a very humbling experience with low income and had to depend on the government for assistance for a little while. The reason why I did this was not to ask for help for me and my family, God has provided. Its to say low income, poverty hunger is not an intercity only problem it live near you, if you look in a different way you may find the opportunity to help.

    NMS:

    Not a lot to say, we almost had to rename Hermes and Nancy Lopez today. YHC was waiting to hear Hermes toss his Marlowe durring the run back to the top but Upchuck is already taken. Nancy Lopez could be renamed Speedy Gonzales or Stair Climber for his run from the back to the front of the line on the steepest part of Twin Team.

  • So many doors and so many Merkins

    Two posted for an off the books KB beatdown at SOT and this is what happened

    COP party of two

    DQ’s, Helicopters, Cherry Pickers, SSH’s, Jazzersizes and a couple other things

    Mosey to the doors starting with 1 Merkin at door number 1

    Merkins / WWII (with KB) every other door. If I did my math right it was 289 Merkins and 272 WWII (with the KB)

    Mosey back to flag with KB overhead

  • Is this Monday or Friday

    9 almost able bodies showed up to what was supposed to be a boot camp at Twin Team but ended up more like a Monday morning River Run.

    Here is somewhat, how it went down.

    Mosey to the playground basketball court, DQ’s, Cherry Pickers, Jassersize, Helicopters, Merkins and LBC’s not exactly in that order

    Short Mossey down past ball fields stop in front of stadium

    Man Killers

    Short mosey behind JRHS by tennis courts

    Various exercises stopping at each light pole from stadium to opposite end of JRHS back parking lot

    Long Mosey trough park, stop outside the indoor outhouses

    Find a 4X4 post that suites your fancy and do 20 Incline Merkins

    Mosey to the back playground for a triple check

    Partner 1 run the perimeter, partner 2 use the V of the swing set to do pull ups, partner 3 dips after first round audible was called and pull ups where changed to incline or decline merkins (your choice). Loose Goose chose to go Rogue and get in some Jerkins

    End with a Merkin ring of fire

    Back to the flag

    What usually happens when YHC gets the Q and doesn’t really prepare or write out a binki – We Run and run and run, so today we Ran

    Thanks to all the guys for breaking out the headlamps and giving the park playground a shot. YHC was not going to take us there because he didn’t figure everyone would have light but you guys crushed it by proving him wrong. If anyone was wondering what that big bright light was that cast a shadow over the entire East coast between 5:30 and 6:15 this morning, it wasn’t an early sunrise or the first sign of the Apocalypse. It was Gumbo with his head lamp.

  • Late night, don’t open the Q sheet

    Sorry for the late post ya’ll forgot to write it before I left this morning.

    YHC was watching the Dallas / Saints game and a little board so YHC opened the Q sheet to see who was at Batteau. No Q, well I guess you have to sign up right?

    7 healthy solders showed up to see what Doozy had in store.

    COP:

    Head to the Pickle ball court, dq’s, helicopters, cherry pickers, bat wings, heals to heaven, LBC’s

    Mosey to stone landing area:

    Man Killers followed by three sets of dips (x20), run up the hill, squats (x20)

    Mosey to the lake: Run the lake with descending merkins – start with 20 merkins at the first light subtract on at each light. Once around the lake use the lights on the hill to finish. Not enough light posts to work all the way to one so end at three.

    Mosey to the road around that leads to the flag, lunges from sign to sign, backward lung from sign to tree, sprint to the final sign.

    Mosey to the pickle ball court to meet the cheap prostitute:

    A little confusing but we figured it out, corner one 5 LBC’s, corner 2 – 10 American hammers, corner 3 – 15 squats, corner 4 – 20 monkey humpers. Hit each corner on the way out and on the way back.

    Finish out with a modified Mary, some LBC’s, scorpion kicks and other things. 10 Merkins of your choice while PAX holds plank.

    Back to the flag

  • Who’s the Q? Are you the Q? AM I? Hot Potato!

    5 able bodied soldiers showed up at Batteau in the early morning light or non-Light wondering who was the Q. DTH was on the list but its 5:30 and he is not here, Swirly do you want to take the COP? Absolutely, lets mosey.

    COP – Swirly

    YHC was not awake yet and didn’t think he would be writing the BB so I may be missing some exercises or they may be out of order. SSH, Helicopters, DQ’s, Scorpions, Imperial Walkers, LBC’s, flutter kicks and merkins.

    Mosey – Face Plant

    Stone landing area – 10 Merkins, 10 Derkins, 20 Dips

    Mosey to the pickle ball courts, circle up for a Merkin Mary – Merkins of your choice while everyone else waits in Merkin position. 20 LBC’s just to get us to a ful 45 minutes. Mosey to the flag.

    NMS:

    YHC had taken a week off to hopefully heal a bum hip but with no real change decided a DTH beat down would be a great way to get back into it. With no Q at the helm, Swirly took control and declared a Hot Potato if DTH didn’t show up during the COP. Welcome to Richmond GLOW (from Greensboro), it was good to get to know you a bit this morning; YHC looks forward to catching up with you throughout the week.

  • Let’s try something new

    5 grizzled veterans showed up for a Doozy Q at Timberwolf to learn a couple new steps for some and a refresher coarse for others.

    COP – Mosey to the bus parking lot

    Cherry Pickers, DQ’s, Helicopters and Man Killers Mosey to end of lot for Bat Wings (Arm circles X20 IC, Reverse X20 IC, Seal Claps overhead X20 IC, Seal Claps In front X20 IC arms up the whole time. With Shoulders primed and ready move to the wall for ascending balls-to-the-wall – start in balls to the wall position walk down and out to plank position 10 merkins and back up to ball to the wall (X3)

    Mosey to the tennis courts to meet the prostitute

    Corner 1 – 10 LBC’s, corner 2 – 20 American Hammers, corner 3 – 30 Hello Dollies, corner 4 – 40 WWII’s back to the start after each corner and repeat each corner as you go by.

    Mosey to the track

    Bear Crawl Inch Worm

    A track has 2 straightaways 4 corners and 2 curves on the straightaway PAX lines up in plank position last person Bear Crawls to the front repeat until PAX reaches the other end of the straightaway. In the 1st curve run to next straight away repeat.

    Audible was called in the first straightaway (halfway) because with only 5 PAX it makes for a lot of Bear Crawls. Indigenous people run to the other side (halfway point) back into the Bear Crawl Inch Worm.

    Mosey to Light pole alley (modified)

    YHC made up the exercises as he went along so these may not be in the right order. Start at light pole by basketball court run to next light pole do exercise and back.

    10 Merkins, 10 Squats, 20 calf raises, 20 monkey humpers, 20 SSH for Honeymoon

    Mosey back to the flag 5 Burpees OYO

    NMS:

    YHC was looking for something new and interesting to try on the PAX this morning. Some where introduced to my new favorite from Indiana – Man Killers – If you like SSH’s you’ll like these. Bat Wings was a new one for YHC and proved to be a shoulder roster (YHC added the seal claps in the front from what was listed on F3 web site). Following it up with ascending testicles might have been a bit much. But WTH? Everyone knows and loves the prostitute so nothing really new there just hitting the abs hard. Bear Crawl Inch Worm was new and YHC didn’t have a good way to gauge how long it would actually take. We had to make an adjustment half way down the track (mainly because YHC’s shoulders where spent) but still made the best of it.

    Notes and Prayers:

    F3 RVA retreat

    P.O.G. Grandma not doing well pray for his family

    YHC’s Mother-In-Law is in stage 4 kidney failure and has been told that she will need to be on dialysis basically until the end.
