Novel Idea: Gear at a Gear workout

Novel Idea: Gear at a Gear workout

20 PAX for a gear workout at a gear AO . . . Imagine that!

With a full dose of Q Juice flowing, YHC woke up at 0315 with all sorts of thoughts of what he could do to his weinke.  After much toying with and fiddling around with the weinke, finally got out of bed at 0430.  Headed to the new well-lit Five Stones AO to see how I can implement the weinke with as much sleep-deprived anger as possible.  SURPRISE SURPRISE, when I arrived at the AO, there was actually gear there to use.  Imagine that!  YHC had heard some horror stories of this AO only being able to work in aerobic and pelvic thrust exercises.

WARMUP:

• Disclaimer given #FormPolice
• Mosey to other side of parking lot
• Big 10s x 20

THE THANG:

• Station and Partner work

  • Curls
  • Rope
  • Shoulder Presses
  • Weighted squats
  • Kettlebell Swings
  • Figure 8s (with Kettlebell between legs)
  • Jump Rope
  • Sand bucket shrugs
• Timer: One group runs over and back of Chiseled Mountain x 2
• All other groups do their station until Timers are back
• Rotate BUT before you do, 10 Hand-Slap merkins everytime

  • Timer group only runs over Chiseled Mountain once
  • 5 Bobby Hurleys before rotating

  • Each PAX holds squat in tight circle
  • We passed 8 weights clockwise for a couple rotations and then counter-clockwise for a couple
  • Everytime PAX passed a weight, touch the ground
• Finish with an AYG sprint to Monroe the other side of the parking lot

MOLESKINE:

• Shake n’ Bake was about to kiss me high five me when I called an audible on Hand-Slap merkins only to want to kill me when I called the same play
• Damascus does not follow the rules of Asylum (no talking during workouts) . . . It’s amazing he could lift any weights while he was talking that much . . . Oh wait
• Great to welcome another Boston sports fan into the mix.  Welcome FNG Minuteman . . . People thought it was cuz he was wearing a UMass hat but somebody might have talked to his M for intel on him
• Kudos to all the guys doing a pre-run this morning.  Must have been 10+.  Impressive.  Lots of skinnier/faster dudes out there like Jingles, Wedding Singer, Deadwood, Zinfandel, Shake n’ Bake, Damascus, Rubbermaid, Dana
• Great job to Fuse Box and Banjo for starting this workout and already have it be this successful!  Thanks for the leadership and the passion to make this a success

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

• Five Stones is starting a Men’s group study on Wednesdays at 0615.  Perfect timing for you to attend Chiseled and then roll into the study and grab some free breakfast (right Dana?)

Thanks to Damascus for taking us out in prayer!
