Doc’s Chestravanza at the Floater

Doc’s Chestravanza at the Floater

Almost missed my very first Q at the Floater, overslept a little and was rushing to get there on time, pull in the parking lot about 5:27 and there was nobody, I thought that maybe the WUC Pax got scared and were hiding/fart sacking, but then about 5:29 6 guys arrive and off we went.

Mosey down the hill on Church Street, the attending PAX were dragging way behind YHC at a very slow pace, I realised then that they like to chat as they warm up into a gentle mosey, so YHC decided to give them that and slowed down. Stopped at a parking lot near the intersection of Church and 16 for COP.

COP:

Gave the proper disclaimer

Did some SSH IC about 20

Imperial Walker’s IC x 20

The thang:

Plank Webb’s it went like this:

Pax gather in small circle holding the plank for the entire exercise. Start with plank position, do 1 merkin and 4 shoulder taps, then 2 merkins and 8 shoulder taps, then 3 merkins and 12 shoulder taps……..all the way up to 10 merkins and 40 shoulder taps. Gave notice before hand that this exercise is to failure, you fail, you shake it off and get back into it, Plank is the resting position. I have to say that from all the times I have done this exercise when Qing this group has been the one that had pushed the hardest so far, no one was slacking or taking long breaks, good work!!!

Then we did Jack Wabs, same concept but replacing Merkins with Heels to Heaven and Shoulder Taps with LBCs.

Next we did 10 of each, Merkins, Wide Arm Merkins, Diamond Merkins then run back to the water tower stopping at every light and doing 5 Jump Squats I think there were about 15 lights. Mosey around the corner next to Black Chicken and stopped at the side walk that has a short wall here I introduced the PAX to something that can be call Dip Webbs maybe?, same concept as the Plank Webb’s above but replacing the Merkins with walk out merkins (Go from standing position, keeping your feet in place, walk out with your hands to a plank position do a merkin walk back with your hands to a standing position) and replaced the shoulder taps with Dips working our way all the way to 10/40.

Mosey to the front of the brewery here we started with 10 of each, Merkins, Wide Arm Merkins and Diamond Merkins then do Triple Nickel 5 LBCs at bottom, run to top of the bridge do 5 Merkins  repeat 5 times.

Had some time left so decided to finish with Burpees IC x 30. Then run back to start for COT.

The Moleskin: 

Proud of this group today everyone pushed hard and they worked to failure with little rest and got back to it as soon as they were ready, besides the mosey in the beginning there was no mumble chatter at all which makes me feel accomplished.
