19 men, including five 2.0s, traded watching Olympic events on TV to grab a front row seat for another great event, Bottlecap’s VQ. YHC would be serving 6-packs in the gloom, but unfortunately not of the soda or beer variety
First twist (off) of the morning was the normal parking lot being taped off. Good thing Ole McDonald cleared the sleep out of his eyes early enough to realize he was looking at crime scene tape on his windshield.
The music got fired up, disclaimer, and other sarcastic comments, were given as we got into the COP . . .
SSH x 24
Merkins x 12
Peter Parker x 12
Imperial Squakkers x 18
Mosey with music around the school to outhouse building with a 6-pack of Burpees mixed in along the way. 6 cones were set-up along walkway. Sticking with the soda/beer pack theme, YHC started delivering the 6-packs (take off of The Beast):
6 reps at 6 cones, repeat with 6 different exercises
R1 – Merkins
R2 – WW2 sit-ups
R3 – Squat Jumps
R4 – Scorpion Dry Docks
R5 – J-Lo’s
R6 – Jump Lunges
In between sets, some Mary while the PAX rolled in. Heard several complaints of skinned elbows and knees trying to get up from a few exercises. Let’s hope Dasher’s nipples are ok after he went shirtless.
After a much needed 10-count, mosey up to school benches for a 6-pack of interval work. 45 second AMRAP
Derkins
Air Chair with low walk
Plank with reverse flutters
Dips
Speed Skaters with ground touch
J-Lo’s
YHC definitely got some digs on the music selection. Ole McDonald apparently doesn’t have Flo-Rida radio as one of his favorite Pandora stations. And Popeye likes One Direction as suspected
Mosey back to parking lot for some Mary. The Olympic theme was blasting which no Patriotic PAX can grumble about this time of year. Had PAX call exercises for a 6-pack of each. Dasher closed with a Baker’s Dozen (not sure where he buys his beer at).
Lots of 2.0s showed up today and brought the HOT pace Great work Flipper, Landshark, Ranger, 6-string, and Toast pushing the group. There was a lot of tremendous effort laid out there today by all the PAX; nice job pushing and finishing each exercise. It was an honor to lead such a great group of guys and crack open a few 6-packs along the way. Thanks for taking us out Gator Cub.
