I guess leg lifts aren’t manly?



I guess leg lifts aren’t manly?

[Disclaimer: My phone erased (or never recorded) the Name-o-rama. Please don’t take offense if I left your name off]

On a beautiful spring morning, 11 pax gathered to celebrate Duke’s ouster from the NCAA tournament (or maybe that was just me). The festivities included running interrupted by occasional non-running activities.

Today’s Q also taught me an important lesson… apparently, leg lifts are not a hit. While assembling my Weinke, I threw some leg lifts (Jane Fondas) in there. Not the most common F3 workout, but seemed like a good way to work the glutes. However, from the reaction I got you’d think I proposed that we buy a case of Zima and have a Gilmore Girls marathon. There was general discontent and one person asked if we were going to have women join the workouts. Apparently, Jane Fonda and her headband have tarnished a perfectly normal leg workout. Duly noted…

In future Q’s, I will strive for manlier exercises. Alligator wrestling and chainsaw fights are not off the table. Neither is Cartman-style Roshambo.

Anyways, the thang…

Lap around the building, followed by

  • Side straddle hop x25
  • Imperial walker x20
  • Windmill x15
  • Mountain climber x20

Mosey across street to gov’t building.

  • Find a partner
  • Run in opposite directions around parking circle
  • Stop and do 10 handslap Merkins whenever you pass each other
  • Repeat 3x

Mosey to wall

  • Box jumps x5
  • Burpees x5
  • Do this twice

Mosey back to picnic shelter. Stay with your partner

  • 1 partner does lap around parking lot. Other partner rotates through the following:
    • 10 LBC’s
    • 10 dips
    • 10 step ups

 Mosey to wall

Balls to the Wall

  • Hold it for 10 count

Find spot on wall and do People’s Chair

  •  Arm presses x75 (civilian count)
  •  Arm presses x100

Mosey to soccer field

  • Suicides (no pushups – just plain ol’ gym class suicides)

 Mosey to parking lot

Plank position / plank walk between parking lot lines

On your 6

  • American Hammer x25
  • Dolly x25

  • End with stretching

Thanks for a great workout today, gents!
