It has been a minute since YHC has Q’d at Hoedown and somehow the bright lights are now always on in the lot formerly known as the darkest AO. 11 strong gathered to kick off the sort of last full week of summer. COP – wander mosey to the front lot for 15xSSH, 10xDQ, DMH+, 15xLBC, 10xHRM and off we went to West Drive Circle and partnered up for a little Dora Dora – 100x merkins, 150x superman 4 count, 200x squats. Audible to 100x superman when the Q realized he wanted functioning rotator cuffs later in the day. Wrapping…
A lucky 13 convened for this week’s edition of Hoedown. One would think that last night’s storm would have brought some cooler temps, but alas temperatures hovered around 70 with plenty of humidity. At 0530, off we went for a short run around the horseshoe and then up to the blacktop for warmup that included: SSH DQ Dead man hang Cherry Pickers Arm Circles Merkins WW2s Flutter kicks Continuing the warm up trend, we lined up at the end of the blacktop closest to the school for some wind sprints. Run out, touch a line, come back and run a…

The Thang:YHC rolled in right on time at 0530 to find Salt Lick and an FNG ready to roll. With just the three of us and no set Q, we decided to go with a hot potato. Salt Lick started things off strong by retrieving a multi-sided dice loaded with exercises—like the Wheel of Misfortune, but more unpredictable. We moseyed to the Tuckahoe Shopping Center, where the dice got rolling. Literally. Each roll brought something new: karaoke’s, bear crawls, crawl bears, slow moseys—and the crowd favorite (or least favorite?)—broad jump burpees, which Salt Lick apparently willed into existence with a…
YHC doesn’t do a good enough job of checking Slack and missed the post about The Deep being on the Summer Tour list for this week, so was indeed surprised to only see Senior Frog’s truck in the lot upon arrival. 5:30 arrived and we were off….. To the parking lot with the blocks because that’s the newest fad at Hoedown. YHC ran us through a quick disclaimer and COP, halfway through which we were joined by Saltlick. The three of us grabbed some blocks, did some manmakers, and proceeded to hot potato the Q after every exercise to keep…
4:24 YHC rolls over to see he had 36 more minutes of sleep left, so YHC put the phone under YHC’s pillow so the alarm wouldn’t wake up his M. 5:27 YHC wakes up and realizes the sound on the alarm never went off and YHC was the Q. YHC gets to Hoedown as quickly as possible wondering if he will be able to find everyone. Luckily Bodo’s had the thought to go over to the Third Church parking lot for a COP since he knew YHC was going to head for the Coupons YHC caught up with the guys…
A triumvirate of mighty men gathered at Hoedown to start the week off right. Here’s what happened: COP: Mosey to the first Third Church lot.

Coupon Triple Triple: Three rounds of three triple checks with coupon work. Round 1: P1 Goblet Squats, P2 Kettle bell swing, P3 run the loop. // Round 2: P1 Lunge pass throughs, P2 overhead press, P3 run the loop // Round 3: P1 – alternate rows 10x P2-…

Warm Up on the upper black top SSH DQ Cherry Pickers Merkins Scorpion Kicks Flutter Kicks WWIIs Our late arriving FNG found us during warm up before we headed to the front of the school for 11s – Derkins and WWIIs.

R3 – swings). Replace the blocks.…
