  • It don’t mean a thing unless it has that swingggg

    Big data got the best of me. Sunday, I noticed that I was 3 Qs short of 70 all-time Qs. Not impressive for most of the OGs out there, but it pushed me to lead 3x this week.

    Anyway, today was about getting pool ready. Here is how it went down:

    Mosey around the back side of the school doing a farmer’s carry….when I started to hear, “how much longer Heist?”, I knew it was time to stop.

    • COP 1
      • KB swings (20 x)
      • KB stepups (using the tables with built-in seats). 15x both legs
      • KB curl (sitting on bench)/Bench Dips) – 3 sets(20x/15x/10x)

    KB farmer’s carry some more to another bench area.

    • COP 2
      • Sumo squat with KB (20x and 15x)
      • KB Swings (15 x)
      • Heals to Heaven (20x)

      • Freddie Mercuries (20 x)
      • Another round of KB chest press (30 second increments AMRAP Left to Right side)
      • Merkins (10x) with KB pull through (2 rounds)

    KB farmer’s carry back to parking lot

    • COP 3
      • KB straight leg dead lift (10x each side)
      • A bit of “tee hee hee” about this being 69th Q and all…..therefore.

        • 20x Rosalitas
        • 20x Susan Summers (each side)

    Announcements:

    2. Memorial Day Convergence at Brown’s Island/Tredegar Iron works. Will the Alamo/New Market boys show up in force? I think we could get at least 10 of us to show up. Don’t let Heist down.

  • Bear Crawls and Buckets!

    10 grown-boys flew out of bed this morning in hopes of playing wiffleball with some friends. But with the Q down for the count, we audibled and here’s how the play unfolded…

    Warm Up – Moseyed around the perimeter of the parking lot and set up camp in the middle for some stretching. Gave the F3 mission and got into it…SSH, Dead-Man Hang, Cherry Pickers, Arm Circles, LBC’s, Leg Stretches, Merkins, Wilson’s Wife and Fudd’s Wife.

    The THANG – With kettlebells in hand, moseyed over to the bus loop where the PAX spread out so that each man stood at the end of a painfully long bus parking stripe. YHC sandbagged some NFL Draft workouts (along with some NFL Draft fun facts) so we went ahead and unpacked those…

    • Bear Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Curls w/kettlebell
    • Spiderman Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Squats w/kettlebell
    • Slinky Crawl to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (20) Lat Raises w/kettlebell
    • Crawl Bear to the end of the parking stripe and back, followed by (10) Thrusts
    • Bear Crawl with the kettlebell to the end of the parking stripe and back

    After the Bear Crawl circuit, the PAX dropped their kettlebells and moseyed over to the basketball court. Whiffing on wiffleball was a bummer but YHC still found a way to scratch that sports itch. Let’s play some KNOCKOUT!

    • Played 5 rounds of Knockout
    • Once eliminated from the round, the PAX moseyed over to the side of the court to perform an exercise of their choice while the round finished up.

    Back to the parking lot for names and numbers
