What Is Your Duck Poop Shuttle Time?



What Is Your Duck Poop Shuttle Time?

7 PAX decided to forego the fartsack and take advantage of the slightly cooler temps to “rock it” at Davinci. For some reason this seems to be a popular weekend to go out of town so YHC knew numbers would be light. In addition, YHC had a good buddy finally coming out for a first post after a long time trying to EH him. Armed with these strategic pieces of knowledge I decided to tailor the workout accordingly and do a lot of partner work so the 2nd F would be optimal.

The Thang

6:30 so disclaimer given but only 6 PAX at the time and no FNG. On the way out of the CFA parking lot YHC’s EH pulled up. We picked him up on the way out and moseyed to the Suntrust parking lot. Circled up and re-stated the disclaimer for the benefit of FNG (I may have known him forever but still don’t want any lawsuits).

SSH x 15

IW x 15

Peter Parkers x 12 then down to 6 inches

Parker Peters x 12 then down to 6 inches

Recover and mosey on to the First Citizens parking lot. This is really a mini parking lot so this was more of a continuation of the warm up. PAX partnered up with P1 bearcrawling from one side to the other with a merkin at each parking line. P2 runs a lap around the bank and flapjacks until the group made it down-back-down-back of the lot.

Mosey on to behind the Lash Studio on Ardrey Kell. Partner back up and like an Oprah show everyone gets a rock. Grab a rock suitable for both lifting and carrying (not running). Here things got interesting. Apparently rock piles are good homes for hornet/yellow jacket/wasp nests. After a couple of rocks were selected we disturbed a nest of something and there were some men scattering. Unfortunately our FNG got stung…spoiler alert I smell a name genesis. P1 did called exercise while P2 carried their rock over their head down to a spot and turned around. Flapjack until groups hit the combined designated number of reps.

Round 1 = 200 bicep curls

Flutter

Round 2 = 60 offset hand merkins with right hand on rock then 60 offset merkins with left hand on rock

Dolly

Round 3 = 150 tricep extensions

Rosalita

Put rocks back trying not to disturb our stinging friends. Mosey to the wall at the end of the Blakeney shopping center. Partner back up with P1 doing 5 wall climbs and P2 doing HR merkins. Flapjack for 4 sets. Saunter over to the Blakeney playground for some comfortable Mary on the rubberized playground. Various Mary called out by the PAX with J-Lo’s, flutter, Dolly, Merican Hammer and Escobar’s finale of the dying cockroach.

Back to launch with a couple of minutes left. Not wanting to waste any time the group planked with some hands and legs in the air and a couple of 10 counts of 6 inches. Finish.

Moleskin

On the way through Blakeney Escobar pointed out the high volume of duck poop and how it would be a good workout just avoiding the poop. YHC got a laugh thinking about running shuttle cone drills but instead of cones there is duck poop. Maybe for the next Q. Escobar also had the sage piece of advice that if the arms are not getting bigger from working out then just get smaller shirts. Swine Flu has embraced the gloom like no other and is a regular many times a week. The progress is showing brother and you are getting stronger and faster. Soft Pretzel was out in front as usual and would speed ahead to the next location and then circle back for the 6. Chopper continues to amaze me with his consistently high performance for any age must less at 59…RESPECT! Teddy, t-claps for posting after a cross country flight the night before. But I guess you need to keep posting in order to keep up with your social calendar.

After getting stung it was a foregone conclusion that our FNG would be named Hornet. Chopper clarified that they were actually wasps but all things considered we stuck with Hornet. I have known Hornet all my life so I told him he got off easy compared to the names that I had in mind. All kidding aside, great work buddy. You did awesome and look forward to seeing you in the gloom.

Announcements

A couple of Sandbox opportunities to put on your calendar. Reach out to Soft Pretzel if you can help. August 3rd painting and yard work 9-12 for an individual in need. Steel Creek area. The Friday night of Labor Day weekend we will be helping out at the Sandbox prom.
