When did we sign up to Q?

Squid and I were ambushed (notified) this past Wednesday, that we had signed up to Q our first Stonehendge.  Not sure we ever agreed to sign up, but Mr. Bean swore we did.  I think we got hoodwinked.

Mosey over to the end of Brixham Hill Ave and circle up in the parking lot.  Disclaimer given and some COP:

COP:

20 SSH

20 IW

20 Merkin

The Thang:

Run around the first row of parking spaces around the buildings, with 20 merkins at each speedbump.  80 total.  Plank waiting for six.  40 LBCs OYO.

Run around the second row of parking spaces, with 20 merkins at each speedhump.  80 total.  Plank waiting for six.  20 Flutters OYO.

Run around the third row of parking spaces, with 15 merkins at each speedhump.  90 total.  Head over to front of the buildings for the second half.

Squid had everyone take a break from the running, and dealt some COM.  The three exercises included: 10 side crunch on each side, 20 palms up half crunch, and 20 bent leg foot taps.  4 sets of each.

Then Squid handed out some gear for gear stations to bring some more pain.  A few PAX got scared and left because they couldn’t handle Squid’s workouts.  (Or they were going to Da Vinci to doubledown.  I’m not sure which it was).  Partner up, and find a station.  Stations included burpees, merkin on the hand bars, shoulder raises with 20lb dumbbells, jump rope, chest press with a large rock, tricep extensions with the rubber band, wrist curls, curls with the 35lb kettlebell.  Partner 1 run runs a lap around the center island, partner 2 performs station.  Flapjack.  Then move down a station.

Mosey back to the AO carrying all the gear.  People were fighting over the jumprope and rubber band to carry back, but Haggis took the rock and said he wanted race.  He ran faster with the rock then the Pax did empty handed.

Circle up for some more pain.  Gorilla squats, and some low slow squats.

Moleskin:

As expected there was a lot of mumble chatter.  That seems to happen a lot when I am on Q.  Either the PAX is trying to distract me because they are scared of the pain, or I can’t get no respect like Rodney Dangerfield.  It seems Strawberry is the ring leader every time.  For that, I instructed Strawberry to do twice as many merkins on the last lap, half jokingly.  For some reason Frehleys thought I was serious and did 30 at each speedbump.  He gets a lot of extra credit, but Strawberry gets all the blame.  However, Frehleys did have a hard time with my wife’s hand weights.  He was ashamed that she can handle the 20lb weights, and he couldn’t.  Keep working Frehleys.  You will get it one day.

Squid and I tried to mix it up from the usual workout so we hope the Pax enjoyed it.

Great Q fellas. I like the way you mixed it up. You were correct on 2 things. I ran because i was afraid of what squid would bring and to double down. Squids ab workout was tough i will be stealing that.
