Are You Ready for Some Bear Crawwwwwwlllss!?

QIC: Turnover

Date: 8.26.19

College football officially got underway last Saturday night, and the weather we had this morning didn’t do anything to convince YHC otherwise.  A brisk morning at Leinbach was the canvas for a Turnover Outhouse masterpiece.  Let’s take a look.

The THANG

To celebrate the start of football season, YHC decided to re-visit some fond (see: terrifying) memories of his days playing (see: not playing very often) high school football and bring back some of the torture drills he could recall doing in practice:

First up, The Snake

Mosey from Launch to JMS Bus Lot

Begin at first parking spot, Bear Crawl the length of parking spot, side plank the width of parking spot, lunge walk back the length of the next parking spot, side plank width of next parking spot.

Continue this pattern for entire length of parking lot.

*Editor’s Note: keep in mind these were parking spots for actual buses, so these things ended up being no joke.  The Q’s estimation was that each parking spot was about 10 yards long.

19 Parking spots, 20 lines navigated, works out to about 100 yards of bear crawls and lunge walks, respectively.  PHEW!

Mosey to Wall

Donkey Kicks x10

Mike Tyson x10

Deep Squat Jump x10 (YHC noticed in the Lexicon that this exercise has been named after a former college basketball player, who shall remain nameless, but let the record show that said former college basketball player’s name was not mentioned/referenced during this beat down, nor will it ever be at a Turnover Q. That is all.)

Repeato

Mosey to Practice Field behind school for next installment of football practice nightmare fuel memories

Next up, Up Downs

PAX circled up and got ’em choppin’.  Run in place until Q calls “Hit”.  PAX fall to ground and pop back up as quickly as possible and return to run in place until Q calls “hit” again.

Up Downs x10

Freddie Merc x10

Repeato

Mosey to Wall

All PAX got into People’s Chair and performed Jack Reachers

Each PAX, one at a time, would step out and perform 10 Copperhead squats while all other PAX remained in Peoples Chair/Jack Reacher position

Mosey back up to Leinbach to the tennis courts for the final act of “Reliving a Nightmare”

Last up, SUICIDES

PAX lined up on tennis court doubles line and hit the remaining 5 doubles lines to perform 1 round of suicides. 3 rounds were completed.

Mosey back to launch and circle up for MARY:

Low Dolly

Low Flutter

Juanita

Heels to Heavens

The Thistle

FIN

COT

NMM

This was YHC’s first experience doing an EC run with @Greenspan and @Burns.  Summary: those guys are fast.

The MC came fast and furious when YHC called for the Bearcrawl/Lunge snake through the parking lot.  #AsExpected

@Van Gogh elected to roll without gloves for this beat down.  YHC informed him at the start that that wasn’t advisable.  @Van Gogh ignored the warning and still dominated, per the usual.

@Manscape is an absolute beast.  The only Respect (a double Respect actually) among a group of Hate’s, and he didn’t miss a beat.  Guy just keeps coming.  Strong work, sir!

Was great to see @Bevo out.  He always puts in strong work, but always seems to make everything look easy.

Always an honor to lead.  Always appreciate the push and the accountability from the PAX.  Thanks for the keys, Greenspan!
