Just a Minute

Just a Minute

Pax:  Root Canal (WD), Total Recall (WB), Splash, Zima, Red Eye, Voldemort, Toe Tag

So, what do you do when Zima tells you that you are going to Q a workout? You try to Q a workout. YHC has not been posting much lately and could not remember the last time there was a Q on his schedule. (That was why YHC jumped slowly at the chance to Q the Outhouse last week.) What do you do for the best Wednesday workout that is not at a public park and does not involve Bells or Whistles? Plus there is the faint possibility of the B3 crew (Brook Berry Buddies) bringing the asker of intensity to the workout. YHC wants to give everyone a chance to push themselves and get something out of the workout and is painfully aware of his lack of speed or strength (but he won’t quit). Despite some time in the Army, YHC doesn’t try to do most exercises in cadence. YHC likes for the Pax to be together as much as possible to be able to encourage and support each other.

Warmarama: SSH x 10 IC Imperial Walkers x 10 IC Seal Claps x 10 IC Squats x 10 IC

Mosey to the Rock Pile and pick a rock that you can handle for a minute. Then we did one minute of each exercise and a short run after every three exercises. Curls OH Press Skull Crushers Run down and around the circle Goblet Squats Bridge Press Pull Overs Run down and around the circle Swings American Hammer with Rock Front Raises Put Rocks back and Mosey to picnic tables by school for more timed fun of one minute of each exercise and a short run after every three exercises. Derkins Step Ups (Alternating) Irkins Run down around the circle Split Squats (30 seconds each leg) Dips Run down and around the circle in place of Box Jumps since there was ice forming Move over to the front of the school for some wall work Australian Mountain Climbers Low Flutter Balls to The Wall or Alternating Shoulder Taps Time was running short so we skipped the run and did more timed fun Plank Unders Lunges Then we Moseyed back to the Shovel Flag and had 30ish seconds for High Knees and Done

NMM: This was the first time for YHC to be at the friendly confines of Mayhem in quite some time. This is not a statement about the Site Q or the proximity to schools. Bells n Whistles is much closer to YHCs house and there is a zero chance of running into Mongoose there. Just kidding, he knows that YHC can’t run so it would be more of a walking into. Zima has been trying to get YHC out to post and he had the shovel flag planted and ready for a pre run this am. Sorry for going so slow today but it was a good little tour of the AO before the work started. Zima was wearing a weight vest today. Not really sure why but he was. We had kind of an FNG/NNG (needs name guy) Atticus who posted in Charlotte and they told him that he would get a name at his next workout. This generated some discussion about the proper process. Zima thought that it was a good idea to wait and name someone after their second workout. In his opinion, we waste good names on people who never come back. Funny thing about that, we had no good names for our FNG today. Welcome to the Dash Pax Voldemort aka Atticus. We all thought that his real name was his F3 name. He is from Hickory and just moved to Winston from Morganton. He was in charge of a school that did not involve wizarding and now is in charge of making magic happen at a local credit union. The only other name that was tossed around was Doby. TR is expecting his 3rd child any day now and he was happy to be out this am. He said that his GAS group is forming a Run Ranger Run team and will have a few spots for non gassy Pax. Not sure why he was looking at Root Canal when he said that. There was some calls of time wasting and MC this am about the originality of the workout and the format. Funny, most of the MC went away when the timer started. One minute is not a long time unless you are upside down against a wall or trying to do derkins or some other stupid exercise then it can seem like forever. The original plan was modified some to try and avoid any ER visits. There was some talk that YHC was trying to drum up business for Root Canal with the Derkin work.

Announcements: TR is putting the Q and TR in TRQ tomorrow. Splash has the Q at Mayhem next week and he is organizing the team for the Tuna Run. At least that is what was heard this am. Prayer Requests: Palin was having some “brain plumbing” worked on today, so keep him in your thoughts.

COT: YHC took us out giving thanks for the opportunity and ability to be out here with each other and for the guidance and help to be the change that we want to see in the world.
