THE THANG

We had three stacks of cards, each stack containing a card that corresponded to one of the letters of “PARLIAMENT” (Read: basically the same as deck of death, but with a cool mug to pull the cards out of)

Pax counted off from 1 to 10 and each pax took a turn pulling a card from the brass mug that my unit gave me as a farewell gift when I left Korea.

The cards contained the following exercises:

P- People’s air presses

A- Aiken legs

R- Rapid fire

L- Lazy Dora

I- Iron squat

A- AMRAP

M-Monkey Humpers

E- Everest (look it up)

N- Newton’s cradle

T-Turkish get up

 

P- Partner carry

A- American hammer

R- Reverse crunch

L- LBCs

I- Inchworm

A- Alternating shoulder taps

M- Merkins

E- Everhead clap (not enough “E”s in lexicon)

N- Nolan Ryan

T- Tony Hawk burpee

 

P- Partner derkin

A- Annies

R- Ranger merkins

L- Lt. Dan

I- Indian bear crawl

A- Alphabet

M- Mike Tyson

E- E2K (Mutton crunch)

N- Never cross Dolly

T- Tunnel of love

 

We didn’t “technically” do the last set of exercises because the pax kept getting mesmerized by DQ’s singing, but since I planned it, I’m putting in the BB.

NMM

Plunger and YHC smoked everybody else on the partner carry, and this after Plunger did an EC run before the workout #partnerselectionisimportant

Speaking of Plunger, he drew the two most popular exercises: partner carry and inchworm (that’ll teach him to cheat on Redline).

Bulldog doesn’t like to call cadence.

Beverly called 21 Nolan Ryans (in cadence) on each side “because Nolan Ryan’s number is 42” #oldguysweretheretocorrecthim

DQ liked the idea of the Tony Hawk burpee so much he saved energy to do some later #ifyouonlydooneyoureallydidn’tdoit

DQ made up for the low reps of Tony Hawk burpees by calling TWENTY! iron squats (in cadence) #allisforgiven

Turkish get ups are a lot harder to do if you do them correctly

Speaking of doing things correctly, Goofy and YHC determined that the reason all the other pax were getting up the hill on the Everest so much more quickly than us was because we were “doing everything with proper form.” #trustus

There aren’t enough big blocks for 14 pax- Sgt. Schultz…

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Total Recall has the Q at Mayhem tomorrow- always simultaneously creative and effective.

Total Recall and some others are doing a weight loss challenge that pax can do using a diet of their own choosing.

Palin is organizing an F3 volunteer day for Habitat for Humanity- he still needs about 10 pax to HC.  All of the pax present confessed to being fully qualified to help. #truthnugget

The website is back up, which means we no longer have [good] excuses for not doing BBs. #damnit

COT

YHC took us out thanking the Lord for what we have and asked for His guidance in using what we have to serve others and Him.

    Good job posting the BB, @Whirly!

    FYI, still waiting to hear why the Q, Date and PAX info isn’t being displayed, but please continue putting it in your BBs. It IS being saved to be displayed and/or analyzed later!

    YHC is happy to take credit for knowing the fig Newton song but it was Sour Mash who called the single Tony Hawk burpee

      The best way to get people to read, and make comments to, your backblast is to consistently spread fake news #ExhibitA

    Yes, I did call for the single Tony Hawk burpee! Don’t Q it if you can’t do it and YHC felt comfortable with one!
