Election Hangover at the Charge

Election Hangover at the Charge

Eight brothers met in the gloom early on the morning after another peaceful election day in America. Despite the veteran crew, a complete disclaimer was delivered.

The Thang:

Head to the track for a warm up lap, then circle up at the 50 for COP:

• SSH x 25 IC
• IW x 15 IC
• Low slow squat x 10 IC
• Low slow merkin x 5 IC (down for 3, hold, up)

Line up along the goal line:

• Broad jump 25 yards, run 25 yards, broad jump 25 yards, run 25 yards, plank at the goal line
• Lunge walk 25 yards, run 25 yards, lunge walk 25 yards, run 25 yards, plank at the goal line
• Bear crawl 25 yards, run 25 yards, bear crawl 25 yards, run 25 yards, plank at the goal line

Mosey to the bleachers for circuits:

• 15 derkins, run to the top
• 20 Bulgarian split squats (10 per leg), run to bottom
• 30 bench squats (butt to bench), wobble to top
• 40 LBCs, run to bottom
• 50 calf raises, plank.

Repeato x 1 (the plan was to repeat 2x, but the Q’s legs were smoked)

Plank it up. LAH, LLH, Regular, RAH, RLH, Regular, 6″

Back to the field for a lap of CMIYC. Partner 1 runs while Partner 2 does 15 LBCs (audible to 10), then chases. Complete one lap (my story is that I didn’t want to wear Baracus out before the weekend), then mosey to the wall in front of the stands for People’s Chair. Right foot high, down. Left foot high, down. Air presses x 40 IC.

Back to the field for 40 yard belly sprints x 4.

Mosey back to the start point for Mary by committee. I’m probably missing some, but these are the exercises I remember:

• Freddie Mercury
• Dying Cockroach
• Rosalita x 10 IC, Right Leg Rosalita x 10 IC, Left Leg Rosalita x 10 IC
• Dolly
• Protractor
• Heels to Heaven
• Slow Freddie Mercury

30 seconds left, so we did 5 burpees OYO. Thanks to Baracus for grading form. #clipboarder

Thanks to Pigskin for the takeout in COT.

Announcements:

• Baracus is running the Charlotte Marathon this weekend. Most are aware of how hard he’s been training, so we know he’ll crush it. If you’re in town, consider stopping by to cheer him on (as well as the rest of the runners/crazies).
• Please sign up for the Area 51/SOB/Indian Land Christmas Party. The organizers have put down the deposit, so help them out by signing up and making your payment. Details are here.
• Please sign up for the Joe Davis Memorial Run. There’s always great participation from F3 and we hope that will continue. Details are here.
• The Rock and Day Zero have merged at Cavalry on Saturdays at 0700 to from Rock Zero. The word on the street is that Swiper will be delivering a moderate beatdown this week.

Moleskine:

• It’s always an honor to lead the pax. Wednesday is usually a rest day for YHC and there are many great Wednesday options, so I don’t make it to The Charge as often as I’d like. However, the pax are dedicated and the facilities are great. Thanks to Baracus for inviting me to lead and the pax for following me into the gloom. The workout was a little on weinke/a little off. Please feel free to point out anything I’ve missed above.
• Baracus said Double Ds (original site Q) would post today, but apparently he stayed up too late watching the election results. Ditto for Tesla.
