Just Another Manic Monday

QIC: Lamb Chop

Date: 3/8/2021

PAX: Van Gogh, Wobegon, Turnover, Green Acres, Lois Lane, Tigger, Crash, Michael Bolton, Lamb Chop

The Q does not normally post on a Monday. In fact, the only other Monday he has ever done was last year for his birthday because Zima threatened him if he didn’t show up on his birthday.

Needless to say, I was not looking forward to this morning so I decided to make it difficult on everyone.

Warm-0-Rama

20 SSH, 8 Abe Vigoda, 10 Arm Swirly forward and back, 10 Over Head Clap, 10 Seal Clap, 10 Whirly

The Thang

Mosey to the track and put in a quick lap

Partner up for modified Dora. 50 burpees, 100 pullups, 150 Lt. Dan. One partner doing the exercise while the other partner runs to the basketball court, touches the end line, and then swaps out. We had to modify on the Lt. Dan to squats because others (looking at your Tigger and Van Gogh) were taking too long.

Once completed, mosey to Von Gogh’s parking lot. Turns out this was no ordinary parking lot. It was a parking lot for a bus. So BIIIIIGGG LOOOONGGGG parking spaces. Bear Crawl diagonal, 1 merkin at the top, Crawl Bear the diagonal, 1 merkin at the bottom. All the way through which was 9 merkins (looking at your Turnover for keeping count (#2021challenge, #Turnovveriswaybehind). Next, Lunge Walk the diagonal, 5 merkins at the top, Reverse Lunge Walk the diagonal, 5 merkins at the bottom. Total of 45 merkins.

Next, mosey over to some benches for some Derkins, Merkins, and Erkins. 1 Derkin, 1 Merkin, 1 Erkin. Round 1 complete. Go up to 4 of each for a total of 4 rounds. Michael Bolton decided to get smart with me, quote, “I wonder what number we are doing next” in a sarcastic tone. Round 5 was 10 of each exercise. Thanks Michael Bolton.

Mosey back to start for Mary. Plank position. 5 Mountain Climbers. 5 Peter Parkers, 5 Parker Peters. Then three sets of 5 Merkins. Turnover, that is a total of 89 Merkins for the morning.

DONE!

Announcements: Get vaccinated if/when you can. Just do it.

Prayers: People struggling through recovery with Covid.

MC: To all of you out there who believe Mutton is my father, almost but not quite. He is my uncle. Just wanted to clear that up. There was little to no complaining this morning from this group of men. I was surprised. My normal workout locations have lots of complaining almost the entire time. Probably because I start it and make it socially acceptable, but everyone this morning was a champ.

Thanks for the Q Tigger. The keys are somewhere frozen to the top of one of the pullup bars.

    Well done! That was a strong Q. You didn’t hear much complaining today because they don’t call The Iron Throne, “Grown Man Monday” for nothing! Looking forward to having you back, often.

    Enjoyed this one, hope you decide to come back someday, Lambchop! There were no complaints today because I think the PAX (YHC included) got all of their complaints out during last weeks deluge. Should be good on complaints for the next week or two yet!
