12 of Waxhaw’s finest (yes, Moneyball, we include Mineral Springs as part of Waxhaw . . . but not Monroe DW) adhered to the call for headlamps and reflective gear as we were going old school. When Hollywood and Halfback started this workout, they created a strict set of rules to follow so YHC wanted to ensure this long list was followed to a T.
ORIGINAL RULZ:
- Toughest workout in Waxhaw
- Minimum 4+ miles
- No Mary
- Opening 1 mile at faster than mosey pace
RULE FOLLOWER:
- Opening mile to Lawson clubhouse
- SSH, Imperial Squawkers, Mike Tysons
- Mosey to an open garage and steal some heavy weights
- P1 runs with weight / P2 does 10 T-Tap merkins and catches P1
- Bottom of Dearmeadows nasty hill . . . Do we have a name for this hill?
- 3 burpees at top of hill
- Exercises at bottom of hill
- 3 sets of shoulder presses (Reps = 70 minus # of lbs of your weight)
- 3 sets of bicep curls
- 3 sets of goblet squats
- Mosey back the garage
- P1 runs up 2 mailboxes and does Dorothy Hurleys
- P2 runs with weight overhead
- Fast mosey back to COT with some exercises along way
MOST VALUABLE PAX:
- Hollywood also created the Ignition MVP award where he gives out a “Party Rock” shirt to the winner
- If you haven’t received one yet, you aren’t trying hard enough in his eyes
- Not sure who was the MVP from today as Hollywood likes to give the award in private but I have my guesses
- Thanks to Carb Load for bringing the phone (that is a MUST if you are going any distance away from COT)
- Legal Zoom was a heck of a partner today . . . Thanks for getting to me so quickly on that last weighted mosey
- Easy Button is getting faster . . . Dude was crushing the hill today
- Glidah and Gerber were seemingly getting faster up the hill each time
- Wolverine and Hollywood aren’t human
- Zinfandel back strong today after Mr. Mom weekend
- Recalculating and Deflated impressed me today with no slowing down despite nagging injuries
- Dasher is so consistent . . . Always up front and pushing
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
- March is “1 Q” month: 60+ workouts need 60+ PAX to step up and lead . . . Do your part and ask somebody. Don’t wait to be asked. Be a leader!
- Prayers needed:
- Posse: Lost his job recently. Looking for title of CEO, Chairman of the Board, or Housewife (I believe I caught that correct but I’ll defer to Goodfella’s backblast). Reach out to him on LinkedIn and see how you can help.
- Gator Cub: His son has been battling an illness and was recently diagnosed. Thankfully it appears treatable.
- Easy Button: Him and his wife (who is a lot faster than him) recently became foster parents to a teenage girl. Lots of adjustments for them so reach out if you can help in anyway.
Goodfella took us out with a Ball of Man around Posse . . . #IronSharpensIron
