Village Idiocy 8/5/2019
Pax: Schneider, Sgt Schultz, Blue Light Special, Burns
I visited Jerry Long YMCA two weeks ago for a Schneider Q to scope out the AO for this week’s installment of Village Idiocy. Knowing I will miss the next two days of workouts, I needed something that would serve as the equivalent of two, maybe three beatdowns. The goal was to specifically target different sets of muscles to near exhaustion…three unfortunate souls joined me for the supplication of the rest of today’s jellied limbs.
WoR
SSH x15, IST x15, Merkin x10, Downdog w/calf stretches (10 count), Fire Hydrants x10 each leg, Seal Claps x15, OH Claps x15
Mosey one lap around the parking lot and to the nearby shelter for the start of the thang:
Aiken Legs routine – 20 squats to the bench, 20 lunges (10 each leg), 20 box jumps, 20 skip jacks (aka alternating jump lunge). All OYO, all immediately in succession of one another
Arms break – 15 irkins, 15 dips, 15 derkins OYO.
10 count, then repeato. Substitute Apollo Ohnos for skip jacks
10 count, then repeato but cut the # of reps to 10 each
Mosey back to launch & retrieve a coupon out of the back of YHCs car.

Since YHC miscalculated the timing of part 2, we had a little extra time for Mary (8 minutes worth) so I pulled out an idea I had been sitting on for a while…after each called exercise, pax complete 10 WWIIs OYO.
Low flutter x 15 (10 WWIIS)
Mutton crunch x 15 (10 WWIIs, you get the picture)
Box cutter x 15
Freddy Merc x 15
SGT Schultz called American Hammers x 15
Blue Light Special had mercy on the pax, called a hip flexor stretch that YHC needs to incorporate into his daily routine
Schneider giggled and then called Alabama Prom Dates x 15
Fin.

Small but intense group the AM. Not much MC, zero complaining. Blue Light is one I don’t get to see often, so it was good to get to know him a little better ITG. He’s a Liverpool fan, which is forgivable, but he was a little morose this morning because of the heartbreaking loss his club suffered yesterday in a charity match. Poor Schultz wouldn’t have been there if I didn’t EH him after the ruck yesterday, so YHC appreciates him following through on his commitment. Schneider is a beast who has a sense of humor possibly centered around sexually suggestive exercises. I am beat and can hardly walk or lift my arms, #cobains to the three of you who joined in.

Shmedfest 8/24, see everyone else’s backblasts for the info
Prayers for our country’s leadership & for those suffering following the deadly attacks in Dayton, OH & El Paso, TX.
Sassy, thanks for the keys. They are in the parking lot doing 10 WWIIs for every visitor to the Y until you return.
