Going Through the Alphabet at The Estate

So, YHC gets a call from the site Q while he’s running around for some brown water in the hills of Kentucky saying he needs a Q for Monday.  Since YHC had promptly fartsacked the week away last week, this was just the “motivation” needed to post.  The new Q created a witty and engaging pre-tweet to draw in the pax.  Soon afterwards there was notification that a bearded, old truck driving pax had the Q.  Being the consummate gentleman, YHC quickly relinquished said Q duties.  Subsequent DM’s later and it was determined YHC would in fact Q, and that the bearded-slimmer one would attend and keep the MC down.  He was true to his word, the Q didn’t hear anything from him all morning.

So, always one looking to make the simple more difficult, YHC hit up www.f3nation.com for some new exercises!  Because there are so many, rarely does YHC get out of the A’s but this time, the Q went all the way to the D page!  Pax were duly impressed.

pax moseyed to the bottom of the hill, but not that hill, and not really the bottom as Swiss Miss pointed out
11’s

– merkin & squat jumps
Daft Punk – because YHC is very well versed in their tunes.
– https://youtu.be/6F1IDGGUncs their hit Around the World is the inspiration for the naming of this exercise, but I’m sure you already knew that.
7 minutes of Mary
  • Dr. W – new one!  And definitely will be done again
  • Peter Parker
  • Mutton Crunch
  • Leg Scissors
  • Freddie Mercs
  • Hip thruster thingys (Purre Barrrre was not open, so this was safe to do in public)

NMM

  • Because it’s getting a touch chillier, YHC likes to get a thorough warm up in.  CP thought the instructions to take a little warm up lap half way through the warm-o-rama was some kind of quaint expression.  Nope, just a short lap!
  • Several pax expressed their wish Palin had Q’d, mostly because they wanted to work harder
  • Pax took to new exercises well, showing off their high IQ even on a damp Monday morning
  • Cheesesteak was wishing the Q had called for partner exercises instead of a pair of exercises
  • Duck and Weave was fun and no pax were harmed
  • Razzie is evidently the bull-horn to Fokker’s MC. Lack of Q-creativity and an overuse of quads and merkin-esque exercises was the prompting factor.
  • Snooki jumps high

Announcements

  • There will be more workouts as usual and pax like Thistle, Cherry Pie, and others will lead them.  Still free, and you should go.

Prayer requests

  • Lots of recovery still happening for folks in Florida and the Carolinas and even in our area who are still without power.

COT – Q led – may we use our fitness, fellowship, and faith to serve others, and not ourselves.

    I would like to go on record as preferring the constructed burpee. Great Q this am, the 11s were sneaky tough there at the end
