YHC had the Q-honors at TRQ today!  Great to be with the four other HIMs who conquered the sack with me.  Here’s what we did.

Warmarama:

SSHs, Abe Vigodas, Whirlies, Hamstring and Hip stretches, Cherry Pies

The Thang

Mosey to playset beside the track for an every minute on the minute (EMOM) ditty.

Round 1
EMOM Dive Bombers x 5
Remainder of Minute AMRAP Low Dolly
Cobra Crunch
Side Crunch – Right
Side Crunch – Left
Glute Bridge
WW2
Freddie Mercs
Low Plank

 

Intermission:  mosey 10 yards to playset.  Partner up.  Partner A performs pullups x 5, Partner B performs squats AMRAP.  Flip flop and repeat until both partners have completed 30 pullups

Round 2
EMOM Choice of H-R Merkins or Burpees x 5
Remainder of Minute AMRAP Low Flutter
Penguin Crunch
Jane Fonda – Left
Jane Fonda – Right
Mtn. Climbers
ISTs
Hillbillies
Dying Cockroaches

 

Intermission:  mosey 10 yards to playset.  Partner up.  Partner A performs pullups x 5, Partner B performs squats AMRAP.  Flip flop and repeat until both partners have completed 30 pullups.

Time to mosey home.  We stopped along the way for dips on the bricks x 30 (OYO).

Finished up with 2 minutes of Mary.

 

NMM:

  • Quiet group this morning. Humidity will do that to you.  We spent a lot of time on our backs
  • Boomerang was very concerned about what was on the other side of the weinke and would not believe YHC that “nothing” was the truth. His paranoia did not prevent him from dominating the workout.
  • YHC mentioned to Green Acres at the onset that we might not get to the rocks today. My hero (GA) responded, “That okay as long as get to pull-ups.”  YHC loves a satisfied customer as 60 seemed to be a good number for Green Acres who had already worked them in Monday and Wednesday.
  • Great to see Pony Express who came up with YHC being the “War Toddler”. YHC apparently is too old to qualify for war baby status, but not old enough for daddy status.  Pony also complimented the playlist which included a 50 year span of country music and imagined he had “flowing locks of hair”.
  • D-Day was fresh off his PR 5k in Utica, NY! His description of the point-to-point course made YHC question decisions YHC has made for the near future.
  • Boomerang offered up wisdom on where to buy dog toys (Homegoods), and the best ways to get canceled from being asked to Q in the future. Apparently YHC nailed a couple of those.

Announcements:

  • GreenNest this weekend. See Slack.  There is a need for an additional truck, if possible, and always more hands make for quicker work.  Pony Express will be there.
  • D-Day recommended Martinus Evans’s book SlowAF and identified overlap with the F3 ethos of leaving no man behind but no man where you found him.

Prayer Requests:

None verbal.  Many internal.  Sky-Q knows.

YHC took us out expressing thanks to the Sky-Q for the beautiful sky both before and during sunrise and the camaraderie F3 provides for me personally.
