Da Vinci Delivers!

Da Vinci poured on the humidity and put 7 of SOBs finest to the test. All battled the elements and emerged victorious. It was YHCs VQ at this site and it was great to see such a solid turnout considering F3 Dad’s Camp was also going on.

After a quick disclaimer, PAX mosied to 151 Main parking lot for COP:

  • 15 SSH
  • 15 LSS
  • 15 IW
  • 15 Merkins

Mosey to building (name unknown) for modified merkin mania:

  • Run clockwise around the building (name still unknown). Stop on each “end” to do 15 incline Merkins and stop on each “side” for 15 derkins. Complete 3 laps of the building (yeah, that one) for a total of 180.

Mosey to the next building (don’t ask about the name) for a little core work. Start with 20 LBCs on corner #1, run up stairs, across and down other stairs, do 20 LBCs, continue around to corners 3 and 4 doing 20 LBCs at each. Back around to corner 1 and repeat above. Do one more lap of above substituting Freddy Mercurys for LBCs.

Mosey across Ardrey Kell to the Green Monster (grass hill). Do “7s” (with YHC Qing there had to be a 7 in there) starting with 1 Merkin at the bottom and 6 lunges, each leg, at the top. The humidity was kicking in hard at this point.

Mosey to medical parking lot for “Around the World.” Start in the center with 5 burpees. Run to one of four cones and perform the exercise written on the cone. Run back to center for 5 burpees and rotate clockwise to the next cone. Back to center for 5 burpees and out to the next exercise. Continue this routine for 3 (modified to 2…it WAS humid!) circuits.

Mosey to upper medical lot. Using 4 islands, do 10 Merkins at island 1, bear crawl half-way to island 2 then run, 10 Merkins at island 2, run to island 3 for 10 Merkins, half bear crawl/half run to island 4 for 10 Merkins. Turn around and do some routine back to island 1.

Slow, sweaty mosey back to launch pad. Quick round of 20 heels to heaven (thanks Heartbreaker!) and we are DONE! SMOKED!

How to do a real 180

20 hard charging warriors attacked and “moderately” conquered Base Camp in the gloom this morning. We took back a hill, secured a school, and reclaimed a parking lot or two. YHC even designed (albeit accidentally) a new “180 logo” (#Q Sweat Stain).

The Thang: 

After a quick disclaimer and a courtesy lap for bell tappers (Goonie was that you?), we were off to the school parking lot for:

  • SSH X 15
  • LSS X 15
  • Merkins X 15
  • IW X 1

Mosey around the corner to Pork Chop Hill (yeah I just named it) for:

  • 7s – starting with 1 merkin at the bottom and 6 lunges (each leg) at the top, then 2/5, 3/4…you know the rest

Mosey back to SC Middle School for:

  • Triangle of 3 stations, do 15 reps each of derkins, jump squats, LBCs (3 rotations of the circuit)
  • Triangle of 3 stations, do 15 reps each of irkins, curb dips, IWs (3 rotations of the circuit)
  • Mary in the middle until all the troops were back

Mosey to the main lot for:

  • Modified burpee ladder = start at on end of the lot with 5 burpees (attack the toughest obstacle first), sprint to the other end for 4 burpees, sprint back for 3, sprint for 2, sprint for 1
  • Run back and bring in the 6

Mosey to the far end of the lot on basketball court side for suicide Mary:

  • 4 basketball hoops
  • Sprint to the farthest (4th) hoop and do 20 LBCs (attack the hardest obstacle first), sprint back
  • Sprint to 3rd hoop and do 15 LBCs, sprint back
  • Sprint to 2nd hoop and do 10 LBCs, sprint back
  • Sprint to 1st hoop and do 5 LBCs, sprint back

Circle up for Mary:

  • The “Flutta” X 15
  • Rosalita X 15
  • Protractor: varying degrees – 45, 6, 90, 45, 6, 90, 180 (a REAL 180, not a Simba 180)

DONE!

Announcements:

  • End of summer pool party – 8/20, check website and RSVP for headcount
  • F3 golf outing – 7/29, check website for details

Thanks for taking us out Simba and nice touch to remind us to reflect on the sad events of the past week.

Moleskin:

  • YHC lesson learned: give special attention to Simba’s protractor form in the future
  • Solid work today men!
  • I think we strayed North of “Moderate” once or twice but everyone hung tough or modified
  • YHC added an extra 10 count for Goonies benefit – you’re welcome buddy!
  • Wolfman lamented that he hadn’t posted in a while but he pushed the rock hard today – HOOAH!
  • Thunder Road and Torpedo – it’s obvious that your persistent hard work is paying off – inspiring!
  • Feel free to comment on how awesome (and humble) I was
  • Always an honor to sweat with you brothers but what an incredible privilege to be freed to lead in the gloom! Thank you! AYE!
