3 Trojans emerged from the gloom for a high school beatdown!

Warmarama OYO with plenty of chatter!

The Thang!

Mosey to the bus lot for a round of Triple Check P1 Moseys across the lot to touch a light post and back. P2 Dips. P3 step ups or box jumps.

Mosey to the round about – Lunge the loop, at every break in the curb perform 2 squats.

Mosey to some parking islands – P1 curb crawls the island while rest of PAX performs a series of merkins until every PAX performs a curb crawl.

Run through the parking lot lanes and perform 4 sets of 20 reps of various core exercises. Perform 20 Incline merkins and 20 pole smokers

Mosey BTTF for a good 30 mins of more mumble chatter before we went our separate ways. Great workout men! It was really nice to have more than usual at the Loco Motion relocation! Just too bad we don’t have a coffee shop this side of town now.

Come on out to Beavers Pre Frozen Triangle – Frozen Triangle! I’ll have coffee and some of us will be coming out for a 06:00 ruck/run. Just bring a kettle bell of your choosing.

This AO has it all! The biggest pile of coupons you’ve ever seen! A couple of bus tires to toss around! Some football dummies to tackle! Some bleacher stairs to climb! Baseball diamonds to routine! A platform to box jump! Walls to Donkey Kick! Well lit areas! I could keep going! Hopefully the tires will be enough to get Yukon Cornelius excited!

Warmarama was light and OYO with MC being the main thang.

The Thang!

Light Posts – 5 Squats or Jump Squats if one is feeling mighty at every one of the 10 lights.

Mosey

Apple Turnovers – using all of the No Parking signs – Bear Crawl to the next sign, perform 3 CDDs and crab walk to the next sign, repeat until you’ve made it to the last sign.

Mosey

Pillar Quads – Wall sit for 10 secs, bunny hop to the next post and repeat.

Mosey – Choo Choo runs way faster on a n active road!

Tire Toss – flip a tire from one light post to the other, perform 10 Derkins, run back to light post, perform 10 Derkins and return tire in the same fashion.

Must Have Quads – Perform 6 Bulgarian SS on a single leg, run up the stairs and back down to perform 6 more BSS with opposite leg. P2 performs WWIIs until P1 has completed. Do 3 sets.

Mosey back to the invisible flag!

Incredibly fun workout this gloom with you Choo Choo!!!

There was no cop car arrival on this school yard adventure. YC went on a solo mission to get some walking in and plug into a podcast. Burpees were thought of but they remained a thought. Looking forward to a Lumberyard brosesh in the morning.

I should preface this post with a heads up to the NK PAX. Choo Choo may or may not be getting a phone call or email from the high school principal in the near future determining further use of their property as an F3 AO…the gate was open, I couldn’t resist!

F3 Warmarama – In the pattern of F3 -perform 3 sets of 10 Imperial Squats and 10 Navy Seal Merkins through the parking lot.

Mosey over by the that nice track we’re not supposed to use (it’s a nice track!) Behold! A gate left wide open! Beaver entered and moseyed up the ramp to the bleachers and did a full round of stairs while entertaining the thought of running a lap on that beautiful new track, YHC gave in to the temptation in need of completing the stair climbs on visitor bleachers. Finish up the remainder of the track and get out of there! Not a single minute later a small white vehicle pulled right up to the gate as I I stopped to take a breather at the end of the parking lot, I thought it best to continue moseying BTTF allowing for any confrontation to take place, however, that did not happen.

Once back to the main road a Sheriffs Deputy was creeping by slowly from behind to witness an approach to box jump the Jr High Stairs and perform 5 beautiful full form burpees at the top.

I was on close watch now, Mosey around the front of the jr high, 5 dips at every bench out front. Continue moseying eastbound bear crawling from speed bump to speed bump and doing a jump squat at every “No Parking” sign along the way. Here comes another car from the far end of the high school parking lot…Mosey up the middle road toward the round about and perform 10 second wall sits around 4 posts, MoT is broad jumps between posts. Mosey over to the main entrance and perform 50 incline merkins. Work my way over behind the flag wall for 10 slow hands to the ground wall climbs. 20 WWII. 20 LBC’s, 20 Penguins, 20 Freddie Mercury. Recover and mosey to the bus lot (there’s that sheriff deputy again, watching me from the high school student parking lot, completely unrelated I almost crapped my pants in this moment as well. Never trust a fart!) perform 5 Bulgarians at every bench and mosey my way back up the road to the flag! Make a clean escape for home base!

Don’t leave your gates open!

Two HIMs linked up and explored the newest AO at New Kent Middle and High School. This is how it went down…

Plenty of chatter and time to stretch it out at your own pace. Then a slow mosey to the biggest hill east of the Blue Ridge for some 11s.

11s

• Merkins
• Alabama prom dates
• Burnee back up until we hit 5 reps then switch to sprint back up

4 corners running style

At each corner:

10 Merkins

10 Mike Tysons

10 Merkins

10 Mike Tysons

Run the full perimeter of the court between each corner

Mosey!!

Lunge walk around bus ramp

Mosey!!

Finished with some calf raises

Good to be back in action. Yukon sent out a text the night before about LocoMotion and I’m glad he did. The weather’s cold and motivation starts to slip, but discipline has to carry us this time of year. Summer bodies are built in the winter.

Choo Choo and Beaver couldn’t make it out to the Loco Motion AO, however, we met up to join forces for a Merkin 5k out at the Ol Lumberyard. Nearing the Merkin Challenge Month finish line our upper bodies are looking like something out of Baywatch (could be either sex) but feeling like burnt toast!

Two East End OGs rolled into new territory this morning, finally checking out the New Kent High and Middle School grounds no clue why it took us this long because the possibilities out there are endless. A lot went down on our two mile adventure. We knocked out one of the toughest 11s on the highest point in New Kent, then hit the four corners on a tennis court so huge it might as well have been a football field. By the time we wrapped up the calf raises, we knew we’d be lucky to walk tomorrow. We’re getting the ball rolling and moving our Locomotion workout out here permanently on Fridays from 0530 to 0615. It’s even a little farther east than RVA!

Numbers and Announcements for Thanksgiving beat down at Mary 0700!
Send up a prayer for Beaver’s truck. It’s acting like it’s possessed… or it’s just flat out dying.

2 scoundrels rolled in on deflated wheels on this peaceful and chilly morning. Wonka is a Michagander so I wasn’t surprised to see him start peeling layers 5 minutes in.
