QIC: Harden

Unlike many of my teammates from the Bourbon Chase, YHC had been suffering from a bit of a hangover from my time in Kentucky last week. Multiple attempts to make it out to workouts had been thrown aside by the all mighty fartsack. Short Sale had the ultimate idea on how to correct this issue YHC was experiencing. Simply – reach out and ask him to Q. Accepting his call, a workout was developed and 10 pax followed the plan accordingly:

Warm-O-Rama

1. SSH x 30 IC
2. Arm Swirly Things (F) x 15 IC
3. Hillbillies x 15 IC
4. Arm Swirly Things (R) x 15 IC
5. Whirly has the clap x 15 IC
6. Seal Claps x 15 IC
7. Abe Vigoda x 15 IC

The Thang

Mosey to the rock pile and grab a reasonably sized friend; Mosey with friend to the center of the football field (note: this was supposed to be the tennis courts, but the whining by the pax started early and YHC caved and went to football field instead).

Bruce Lee’s (6 ab exercises, 20 reps each, 3 sets)

1. American Hammer
2. Leg Raises
3. WWII Setups
4. Penguin Crunch
5. Gas Pump
6. Boxcutter

Repeato x 3 sets

Flora 1-2-3 (Partner Up, size doesn’t matter)

1. 100 Merkins (P1 – 10 Merkins; P2 – Plank; flapjack until 100 reps reached)
2. 200 LBC’s (P1 – 20 LBC’s; P2 – 6″ Leg Hold w/rock; Flapjack until 200 reps reached)
3. 300 Goblet Squats (P1 – 20 Goblet Squats; P2 – Curls; Flapjack until 300 reps reached)

Al gore was completed between each set until 6 had caught up.

Mosey friend back to rock pile and discard, return to parking lot for COT.

NMM

1. Mumblechatter was at unheard of levels at a Harden Q this morning. It started early and it came often.
2. YHC admittedly was a bit rusty and got off to a slow start during Warm-o-rama. Activities picked up steam as we progressed.
3. 2/3 of Scheduled workout was not completed due to time it took for Bruce Lee to be completed.
4. BMOC Announced to the Pax that it was unfortunate that YHC had likely run off the FNG’s this morning with Bruce Lee’s. Several pax chimed in with their agreement which possible could have resulted in a mutiny. As you probably saw on Twitter – YHC wasn’t having it! Pax were quickly placed back in line as YHC apologized loudly to the FNG’s advising that “typically we have more men at these workouts”. Any further complaints can be filed directly with your site Q, Short Sale.
5. Excellent work by the FNG’s and “newer” pax who joined us today – it was a pleasure! The rest of you did ok after our little pep talk – don’t poke the bear.

Announcements

1. Goofy personally congratulates all of the pax who completed the Bourbon Chase last week. He is so proud of all of you.
2. Last call for hockey game and tailgate – get with Spam-a-lot or woebegone now.

FNG Naming

1. Laurance Piner – NC State guy, lacrosse player, Social Studies teacher at Jefferson. After much thinking pax came to DeVos – as in Betsy DeVos.
2. Brad Morgan – Grew up in Clemmons, moved to the mountains. Nurse at Baptist. Pax settled on the name No Doze.

YHC took us out thinking Him for giving us the strength and bodies to come out today and get better and stronger together.

Short Sale, Thank you for allowing me to lead this morning!
