Coming over to the West Side

24 at Centurion this morning.  I don’t know all the regulars but based on some recent back blasts I felt like you had most of them out.  I have only been to this AO a handful of times and was looking forward to utilizing some of the fine features.

Fast mosey across 51 and behind to some big awkward hill/median thing with a Greek name.

COP:  Seal Jacks, IW, Plank Jacks, 6″ Plank Jacks, Merkins, Low Slow Squats.

Triple Nickel up and over the hill.  5 8-count body builders on one side, up an over for 5 8-count body builders on the other.  Repeat 5 times.  Plank-o-rama for the 6.  (that’s 50 8-count body builders to get things started.)

Fast mosey back to campus with a stop after 51 for some Flutter while all the PAX makes it across the street.

Head towards middle staircase of parking deck with some other Greek name.  Half the group run to North stairwell and up, 5 low plank jacks at bottom, back to middle stair case and down for 5 jump squats at the bottom.  Repeat 5 times.  The other half does the same thing except climbed the South stairwell.

6 MOM while all finish:  Heels to Heaven, Dolly, LBC’s, maybe something else I forgot.

Last triple nickel on the long ramp up the deck.  5 merkins at the bottom, 5 donkey kicks on the wall at the end of the 1st level.  Rachael and Checkpoint were the only two beasts to complete this before we had to head back to launch.  40 seconds remaining for 8 burpees on your own.

Moleskine:

Lot’s of guys flying out there this AM including Chelms, Mermaid, and Lorax.  Also a solid crew of grinders who kept hustling to ensure they kept up all the reps.  No complaints just handwork.  Chelms called it a C for originality but A+ for pain.  Stairs and hills are stairs and hills.  They aren’t creative or pretty, but effective.

2 FNG’s handled this beating well.  Snuka, as in Jimmy Superfly, works for Van Pelt and apparently his business unit is owned by Linda McMahon of WWF or WWE, or whatever they call it.  Matchbox was brought out by Bus Boy and Driver likes to race cars.   I guess little cars.  This nick name seemed to be pre-determined by his so called “friends”

For the record:  Mermaid, Brilleaux, Lorax, Icky Shuffle, Rappers Delight, Rachael and Van Pelt are all 2 for 2 on my Q’s this week?  Who’s going to close it out with me and go 3 for 3 tomorrow.

Thanks to Chelms and Margo for the keys to Centurion for some East side flavor.

Thanks to Mermaid for the takeout.

Calling 3 triple nickels is why I gave it a C for creativity. Would have been lower but you did come up with 3 very good and very different routes. Maybe we should rename Match Box to Ricky Bobby or, even better, Jean Girard

Tough workout – come Q agaim anytime

Dick Trickle. It’s shameful that we missed that.
