Ain’t Got Time to Nap…

Ain’t Got Time to Nap…

With Snowmageddon quickly approaching the greater Charlotte metro area, 8 brave PAX decided to clock in for some solid work before hitting their local grocery establishments to stock up on milk and bread.  #localnewsconspiracy  It was quickly learned from the PAX that Goon’s absence was due to…..wait for it….future nap time in preparation for a 50th birthday party.  I am still perplexed as to how a 7-8 a.m. post would impact an afternoon nap, but we all have our quirks. #extendedfartsack  Being YHC’s VQ, an efficient yet thorough disclaimer was given before setting out into the gloom.

Warm-up  Mosey to the outdoor basketball courts.  Circle  up for the following: SSH x 15 IC, LSS x 15 IC (1st Q fail, as YHC calls out “Low Slow Merkins” which garnered quizzical looks from the PAX), Slow Merkins x 10 IC, Hold plank, MC x 10 IC, Peter Parker x 10 IC, Parker Peter x 10 IC, Recover, Good Morning Nashville x 10 IC.  Mosey across Rea Rd. to the church rock pile.

The Thang  Partner up and choose 1 lifting rock per pair.  While P1 runs around parking lot to Salvation Army bin, P2 performs called exercise AMRAP.  Flapjack upon P1 return.  Round 1 – biceps curls, Round 2 – triceps extensions, Round 3 – Squat Thrusters.  Mary break – Flutters, Freddy Mercury, Dolly – x 13 IC typ. Swap lifting rock for running rock.  CMIYC around church, staying on the sidewalk.  10 merkins at transition points.  Deposit running rock from whence it came when finished.

Mosey to rear football field and line up for Suicides.  Start at goal line, AYG to near 25 yard line, 10 Merkins, AYG to starting goal line, 10 jump squats.  Rinse and Repeat for 50, far 25 yard line, and far goal line.  Did not bring orange cones or any type of markers for that matter (Q Fail #2), so yard line determinations were SWAGs, at best.  Planks to finish.  Threw in some Plank Jacks for giggles.

Mosey to metal bleachers near SC concession stand.  10 step-ups ea. leg.  Derkins x 10 IC, Dips x 10 IC.  8 step-ups ea. leg.  Derkins x 8 IC, Dips x 8 IC.  Inevitability?  Nah….

Let’s mosey to the front football field. AYG 2x, Backwards AYG 1x, Karaoke 1x.  Mosey to 50-ish yard line.  Jack Webb.  Chose the 1 Merkin :: 3 arm press ratio.  Stated goal was 10 and 30.  Per the old adage, “Don’t Q what you can’t do”, we stopped at 7 and 21 because YHC could no longer feel his shoulders or perform any more Merkins.

Mosey to brick wall for People’s Chair.  PAX took turns performing 10 Merkins while remaining PAX suffered on the wall.  

Mosey to Launch point.  Mary – Protractor, Rosalita (15x IC), Merkins (15x IC)

Done.

Moleskin  Great work from the PAX today.  YHC’s laptop has crashed 3x while writing this BB, so I shall be brief.  It was an honor to lead this group of men for my VQ.  Thanks to Drano (who was persona non grata) for signing me up to Q today without my consent.  #whatarefriendsfor  Thanks to Sony for giving me the reigns to a stellar AO, even though I chose exercises that he despised.  You’re welcome.  As for Goon and his “nappy” time?  Speechless…  Redemption is required.

Announcements    Richard Sheltra (sp) 5k in Pineville to honor the firefighters.  Check with Dumpster Fire for details.
