Date: 2026-02-11 AO: Meathead Q: voodoo , PAX: F3 Elsa, voodoo, The Worm, MARTA, Blanks, Unplugged, Uncle Leo, Pepsi, flipper, Curious George, Toto, Soul Glo, high_tide, Emoji FNGs: None COUNT: 14 Between travel and illness (mine and other family members’) and general life “stuff,” I have posted far less frequently than I would have liked over the past few weeks. To snap me out of my malaise, I elbowed Flipper aside and snatched today’s Meathead Q from his warm, somewhat sweaty (clammy?) hands. The weather was excellent – 60s with a breeze. Only Unplugged was aftaid to unsheathe his pasty winter legs but the rest of us embraced the Springlike temps.
WARMUP: the weinke gave me 10 minutes but we didn’t need that long given:
SSH x 20 IC 5 x 1-handed swings per side IW x 15 IC 5 x high pulls per side Sharon Towers x 10 IC 5 x cleans per side Prying squats x 2 IC 5 x snatches per side
THE THANG: Workout 2 of Week 2 of flipper’s shenanigans (aka Dolphineus Maximus). Low reps means go HEAVY.
25:00 of alternating sets of:
6 x 2-handed floor press 6 x 2-handed bent over rows
Continue with good form and rest as needed.
After 15:00, all in attendance agreed that we had done enough so we moved on to something not on the spreadsheet.
Carries: take your heaviest bell and your lightest bell and line up. During the carries, the mumblechatter got a little overly exuberant and the Q politely shushed the pax in a stern manner. Thus, the weinke was given its title (thanks, Unplugged).
Lighter bell overhead, heavy bell ins suitcase carry. To the first light, then recover and switch sides. Repeato with racked and suitcase. We returned to our stations but had extra time so we repeated with farmer carries and marching in place for about :45.
5:00 of heavy high pulls – 6 per side. Since the reps were low, the pax were told to push themselves on weight.
MARY: we had a few minutes left so we did some elbow plank and hollow body hold until time expired.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: • 3/6 will be the next edition of The Prod – invite an FNG or a pax that’s fallen off the wagon. • 3/7 running, rucking, and drinking to raise money to buy drugs. See Slack for more details but I think I’ve got it right. • 3/28 Q School at the Hot Box at Calvary. This is for any lax who wants to up their W game, not just relatively new guys. Come on out and learn from the best. Some of the best couldn’t make it so I will also be there.
COT: thank you to Pepsi for taking out the combined lax of Meathead and Anvil (5 pax)
