Date: 1/10/2023
PAX: Burns, Cherry Pie, Sweet Tea, Chick Flick, Bevo, Frost Bite, Star Fish, Lamb Chop
Having been invited to Q Flatline Bevo (thanks Bevo, I always like to be asked!), I decided to take up the call and bring some heat to an otherwise chilly morning.
Seeing as, in a (hopefully) few short weeks, I will have a wee babe to care for, my near term abilities to Q are limited. So Bevo ensured I would have at least one last dance.
The Thang
Mosey lap around parking lot. I like the new terminology. This is a “Spicoli” lap. Good thing we did it because Sweet Tea showed up as we were finishing (no Spicoli though).
Mosey to the parking deck. Quick warm up of Imperial Walkers and Arm Swirly.
Then onto business. Here commenced the 1+1 workout. 1 pullup, lunge walk to the next cross beam, 1+1 pull ups lunge walk to the next cross beam, 2+1 pull ups, etc. until all 8 cross beams were accomplished. There was some grumbling from an otherwise jovial Cherry Pie who said that was too many pull ups. I politely told him it was only 36 pull ups to which he responded that his fingers hurt…
ONWARD! Mosey up Cherry, left onto 4th, and down that other road I don’t know what its called to the park with the water fall and amphitheater area. Here we did 1+1 burpees. 1 burpee on the bottom, hop up to the next step, 1+1 burpees there, hop up to next step, 2+1 burpees, etc. Then mosey down the steps, around the inner circle, up the stairs, across the bridge and back down to the inner circle. Little did we know that Bevo had not done his Site Q duties and we had to cross a literal moat puddle on the bridge, twice…
Then we did some 7 layers of dip. The dip cadence was 7,8,9,10,9,8,7 dips and the exercises were RL Step Ups, Derkins, LL Step Ups, Merkins, Box Jumps, Irkins, Squats. Bevo complained that this was 14 layers of dip…
Then we completed a round of 2+2 Derkins on the steps (need I explain), to which Bevo again complained that he was tri podding the steps and told anyone who didn’t understand to ask his mother? Or did he say, “look ma no hands”?
Then we mosied down that street I don’t know the name of, right onto second, down the hill to the park for some Dora 1,23.
100 Merkins, 200 Squats, 300 LBCs. Bevo again complained at the lightening fast rate Cherry Pie and I were completing our sets and decided to criticize my form. Having never been critiqued before for my form (looking at you Palin, Van Gogh, Zima) I was speechless and unsure how to respond.
Finally, we mosied back to start for some quick Mary of Mutton Crunch and 10 Merkins.
Prayers for families, marriages, and young and future dads.
Keys are in the moat Bevo!
