What do you get when you cross Spielberg & a Hair Band…
So what do you get? Probably a bunch of long hair rockers walking out of a spaceship for a music video but in this case just a lot of sweat…
7am rolled around and Spielberg was up with with his Virgin Q!
The Thang
COP
Imperial Walkers x 15
SSH x 15
Merkins X 12
Mosey to practice field
50 yd butt kickers, karaoke, high knees, back pedal
Partner up and grab a rock!
P1 150 yd run
P2 called rock exercise then flapjack
Exercises: overhead rock press, rock squats, LBCs w/ rock and Mountain climbers
Some stretches & countdowns due to heat and an audible somewhere in there to take the run down to about 75 yds?
Hand off to Hairband!
Mosey to the tires and instead of pulling plates out of thin air for hair burners like last week, I had water waiting for everyone. #whosyourfavoriteq
Minute and a half water break.
Count off into 2s so we have 2 teams. Not sure if Q fail somehow or O2 dep/heat that made a simple 1, 2, count off difficult for the PAX
Each team grab a big tractor tire and line up at the posts. Similar plan as the 1/2 mile hairburners last week, one member from each team flips the tire as far as they can toward the gate at the Road to Nowhere while the remaining PAX rotate 3 called exercises between each flipper.
Exercises:
30 Carolina Dry Docks, 20 Merkins, 20 jump squats rotate through until you get to the gate.
On the way back 30 LBCs, 20 Mountain Climbers and (as requested by Horse Head) 10 burpees rotated through until back to starting point.
First team back do some active recovery plank work until all together.
Pinball out to obstacle course, go through 1 time then mosey to bottom of the hill, because it’s not Outland without JAILBREAK AYG to virtual shovel flag since the real thing was sitting in CT’s garage.

Times up!

Great VQ by Spielberg!
It was odd when CT mentioned that I was 2nd longest vet, it doesn’t feel like it with so many strong PAX that have joined us. It is awesome to look at the growth over the past (almost) 2 years though and having new (and not so new) PAX step up to Q.
That is how this grows, by continually giving the reigns to more people, this isn’t some club where we protect the leadership, it’s a group and process to create leadership and expand. If you have not taken a Q yet step up! We have more AO’s we want to launch but we need you to help us do that!

Good workout gents. Spielberg did a good job with the workout, keeping it simple and straightforward. No tossing animals or building supplies, complicated diagrams, or advanced mathematics required. Just run across a huge field while somebody lifts a rock over their head. I substituted the running with sets of 10 burpees and felt I got my moneys worth.
Nice move on having the water waiting near the tires as well HB. I think I inhaled that entire bottle in one gulp. It is funny watching a bunch of guys choose the least efficient way to move a tire across a parking lot #reinventthewheel.
Went to Whiplash today and he did a series of barbaric torture treatments on my leg (graston, dry needling) while diagnosing me with IT band syndrome. Apparently, it is not my knee causing the pain, but my IT band. I can run a couple of miles feeling ok and then it feels like someone kneecapped me with a flaming lawn dart. You may see more of the bike unless someone wants to saddle up.

BTW I am going to a follow up appointment for my nasty eye blister thing Wednesday so not sure if he is going to tell me to lay off the workouts again for a week or 2 to prevent infection. Apart from that I will be there though… I may even be there anyway and just wear some goggles or something. 😛
Seriously I hate it… It almost rubbed dirt in the wound when CT mentioned me being the 2nd longest veteran after him. I don’t feel like it with all this crap slowing me down and sending me backwards in gains.
Just thankful each of these are minor in the overall scheme of things & life. Maybe God is trying to keep me as the encourager of the six. #fulltimesweeper 🙂
Wait! Just you wait Joe!!!!
My back still isn’t 100%, it was hurting Monday running around. Stupid Q and his running workouts (mine).
I’m going to strap on the ruck tonight and see how things go. I’ve got to get after it. 7/24 is coming way too fast.
Great job Spielberg on your first Q. I hated it, so you did a good job.
HB told me Friday he wants more running.
