He’s a Lover, Not a Fighter – 2023-09-14

AO: Wildcat
QiC: Manhole
Pax Count: 20
Pax List: Bailout, Big Apple, Billboard, Casanova (FNG), Cobalt, Flip Phone, Gold Bond, GreenBean, Leon, Magic Mike, Manhole, Olaf, Rainman, Ricochet, Scout, Skynet, Suds, Wreck-It Ralph
FNG Count: 1

After two days in a row of IPC Week 2, YHC decided enough was enough. Taking advantage of Dubya being laid up with the RONA (heal fast brother), YHC grabbed the Q and developed a plan. Don’t get me wrong, there was still running, there was even a trek up the hill, but just not the way that we normally get there. 17 joined in for the BD, including one FNG (Bailouts 2.0, NKA Casanova) and two Downrangers (Bundy from Milwaukee and Landslide from Indy)

Warm up: (all IC and X15 – 1 round)

  • SSH
  • Imperial Walkers
  • Abe Vigodas
  • Low Slow Squats
  • Stone Mountains
  • Large Arm Circles (Forward and Backwards)
  • Michael Phelps

The Thang:

Left the lot out of the south exit, a quick right on Womack and then on Vermack and mosey up the hill part way to Vanderlyn drive (squats for the 6).

Partner up – partner 1 starts running backwards, while parnter 2 does 5 merkins and then peels out to catch partner 1, and then switch roles, all the way up Vermack to Mt Vernon (the stoplight). (Squats for the 6).

Mosey across MVH to St Luke’s upper lot for an alternating Pyramid – Merkins and Air Presses 2/10 all the way up to 10/50 and back down. By my count that’s at least 60 merkins to that point.

Mosey all the way back down Vermack to the front drive of the school to the benches.

Gathered here for 2 rounds of 4 exercises.

Round 1 – Dips (x10/IC), Incline Merkins (x10/IC), Bulgarian Split Squats (x10/each leg/OYO), and 10 Squats (x10/IC).

Round 2 – Dips (x10/IC), Incline Merkins (x10/IC), Bulgarian Split Squats (x8/each leg/OYO), and 10 Squats (x10/IC).

Mosey down the hill around the side of the school and down to the track and around to the far side for some Mary (class participation style – PAX led IC):

  • Billboard – Flutter Kicks (x15)
  • Magic Mike – American Hammer (x15)
  • Scout – Heels to Heaven – (x15)
  • Olaf – King Crunch (I think) (x10) 5 to each side
  • Manhole – 6 Count Leg Raise (x10)

Mosey over to the bleachers. Round 3 – Dips (x10/IC), Incline Merkins (x10/IC), Bulgarian Split Squats (x8/each leg/OYO), and 10 Squats (x10/IC).

Mosey back to the big kitty.

CoT:

Olaf took us out.

Prayers for a quick recovery for Dubya from COVID. A smooth rehab for B-Bo (hip replacement).

Congrats to Magic Mike and his wife – expecting their 1st and Ricochet and his M, who are expecting their 3rd.

Naked Man Moleskin:

We were blessed by two Downrange PAX and an FNG, the 2.0 of Bailout (Breastman) who will for ever be known as Casanova. A Junior in HS and apparently a lover of the ladies.
