Smell that Skunk burn

A baker’s dozen gather up in the misty morning air, two of which had already been on that early am jog to Elizabeth Lane and back. #extracredit  The Pax seemed ready to get to work.  So, YHC announced disclaimer and we proceeded.

The Thang:

Warm-Up

Good mornings x 20

KB squat-n-hold 30 sec

1 hand alternating swings x 20

SSH x 20

2 hand swing x 20

IW x 20

Merkins x 20

Mt. Climber x 20

Mosey with Bells:  Rack’em to end of lot

Plank, then merkins x 15

Mosey to lower lot where there were hidden treasures.

Main event:  Hairburner Relays In teams of 3; while one partner does hairburner the other 2 do said exercise (one guy with doubles if he wants); then teams move down the line to use different plates.

  1. Cleans
  2. Clean and squat
  3. Clean, squat, and press——- Take a lap to shake out the legs
  4. Swings
  5. Overhead press

Mosey back to lot…No, wait, some sort of Farmer carry chase with 5 burpees.  Figure it out, just get back.

Jack Abs with KB:  1 KB Louganis, then 4x KB press with Leg Lifts, up to 7 and 28

Finish with 1 minute of swings

COT

Ye Old Nake Moleskin:

A fine turnout this am, with Arena sliding in on two wheels in the box car.  It seems some of the “regulars” may have been a little afraid to get wet.

YHC loves the mumblechatter especially Gummy’s since YHC usually gives it to him at The Rock.

The warm-up seemed right and needed to be done to get the Pax ready for the main event.

If YHC can’t get TR out to Skunk, then I figure I can at least use his toys.  Those plates have seen allot of different AOs.  It was good to get them back out to Skunk. #crowdpleasers

Probably the best compliment was when Witch Dr. stood up after pushing the plates and groaned.  #missionaccomplished.  Oh and of course when YHC got pushed by Tackling Dummy saying how much he loved the ‘burners.

There was allot of extra credit going on out there this am, not sure by choice.  I think it was because of the poor instructions.  My fault and your welcome.

Legs may be a little stiff getting out of bed tomorrow, but post somewhere to work that out.

Fletch was a beast on the Jack Abs and pretty much lead the last couple of sets.  Something tells me Dollywood was solid on it too.  YHC just couldn’t see him.

Announcements:

Dollywood and the Charlotte Eagles are looking for 8 families to host some players from out of town this summer for 2 months.  Please see him and check the weekly email for more info.  Great opportunity to serve and have a good dude stay with you over the summer.  Perhaps babysit your kids and teach them some mad soccer skills.

Tough one Stone Cold! Anytime hairburners and doublebells are in combination – you know its going to be a long day. The Pigeon Forge connection of Dollywood and Gummy were flying on the Hair Burners. Strong work all around by the Skunkworks Pax.

The skunk was burning this am. Solid lead Stone Cold, bringing the old school pain to Skunkworks.

Bruh. Now I remember why I haven’t been to Skunkworks in a while. Good stuff. Stone Cold produced an actual written weinke, but still gave impossible to follow instructions to the farmers carry segment. Something like, “you three guys get your bells back to the cars, burpees, run, switch”. Got it.

I did get to educate young Dollywood on the origin of his namesake. It was known as Silver Dolly City when I was a lad.

The Jack Abs went on way too long. I was glad to see Fletch best SC so we could stop.
