Big DEAC
QIC: Frostbite
Date: 08/30/2024
PAX: @Burns (EC), @Schlitz (EC), @Wobegon, @Spicoli, @LambChop, @$5 Dollar, @Spicoli (WD!), @Frank&Beans, @Frosbite (QiC, YHC, WB)
YHC had the Q this morning at #UrbanAssault — one of my favorites! Once again, YHC is not quite as a creative as my dad, @Starfish, when it comes to planning and executing workouts, but I at least tried to live up to his reputation with this beatdown.
Wake Forest Football opened the gates last night against the mighty NC A&T Aggies. I began thinking about incorporating this feat into my beatdown but it was contingent on the Deacs winning. After a slow start, the Deacs took care of business and finished nicely with the dub so the plan stayed intact.
Simultaneously, there has been some chatter on the inner slack about which setlist of bands would you want to attend? US vs UK bands, so thus I created a playlist with one song from each and let the debate continue on this AM.
The workout went something like this:
Warmarama:
SSH (22 x IC) — had to wait for @Schlitz to actually do a SSH
IST (10 x IC)
Abe Vigoda (6 x IC)
Whirley’s (10 x IC)
Michael Phelps (10 x IC)
Cherry Pies (10 x IC)
The Thang 1:
Mosey on to the parking lot across from Fair Witness Fancy Drinks.
Center of Parking Lot: PAX were instructed to do 5 burpees.
At each corner, PAX were instructed to do an exercise then come back to the center. Mode of transportation to said corner varied by whatever the hell you wanted to end up doing and not what was actually called. Mode of transportation was to run.
Corner Exercises were:
Diamond Merkins
Elbow plank jacks
Alabama Prom Dates
Copperhead Jump Squats
Reps started 5 for 1st round. Up to 10 on 2nd round. Back down to 5 on 3rd round.
Called mode of transportation was: Bear Crawl for 1st round, Backwards run for 2nd round, and inchworm for 3rd round.
Lots of mutiny occurring so YHC pivoted after 3 rounds to mix things up.
The Thang 2:
Mosey to Coal Pit for 7s.
On one end of coal pit, do 1 Cobra Crunch. Mosey to other end. Do 6 WW2s. Then 2 CC, 5 WWs, etc etc.
Mosey back to launch for Mary:
Mary:
Low Flutter (10 x IC)
Mutton Crunch L (5 x IC)
Mutton Crunch R (5 x IC)
TIME!
NMM:
@Spicoli showed up on @Spicoli time but texted YHC asking where we will be. I mentioned the parking lot. @LambChop happened to be in the text thread and immediately gave me grief on location of beatdown upon arrival.
@LambChop also complained about the WIB nature of the workout. @Lambchop also complained about the Burpees. @LambChop also complained about the weather. @LambChop also complained about the rocky pavement @LambChop also complained about YHC’s attitude towards his complaining.
@Burns and @$5 forgot their gloves but they pushed through the pain.
@Burns chirped me throughout the workout. What is a “D-E-A-C-B?” I told him it was actually B-D-E-A-C for Big …. making @SourMash proud.
@Wobegon advised of his decision on which setlist of bands he would go to. After going to a few shows with the former Nantan, I trust his input.
@Frank&Beans mentioned that he enjoyed the morning’s tunes.
@Schlitz and @Burns came in hot from the EC Run. @Schlitz is a full time runner.
Last but not least, the consensus was that @Oasis sucks.
It was great to be out there with everyone this morning! Cheer on them Deacs!
