Block Carry VQ

QIC: Workbench

Date: 06/26/21

PAX: Bullwinkle, Chestnut, Crash, Huckleberry, Fender, Red Baron, Root Canal, Suede, Van Gogh, Zima, Workbench

Warm-O-Rama: 15 SSHs, 15 Imperial Walker, 4 Abe Vigoda, 10 Michael Phelps, mosey around back to find our cinder blocks.

The Thang: We started off with 10 squats holding our cinder block, then we did an overhead block carry about 100 yards to middle of parking lot.  In the middle we did 5 burpees jumping laterally over the block after each rep.  Then we continued our overhead block carry the next 100 yards to other end of the parking lot and did 10 Mike Tysons.  We repeated this process back and forth increasing the squats and Mike Tysons by one rep each time, while continuing our 5 burpee lateral jumps each time we crossed the middle.  YHC was feeling benevolent and let the Pax drop their blocks halfway through to take a lap around the parking lot resting their arms.  Then we continued our back and forth overhead block carry until time ran out.

COT:  JULY 3 convergence at Hanes – super max at 6 all other workouts at 7.  July 3 blood drive.  July 5 convergence at Iron Throne – 6 and 7 start times.

Prayers for Bullwinkle and boys traveling across country with two small boys.

NMM: 

  • We learned for some strange reason it can be easier to carry a block one handed over head.
  • Bullwinkle, Red Baron, and YHC got to discuss family, life, and the best routes for driving cross country to Utah.
  • Chestnut making his third ever post said he is going to start checking the calendar so he can avoid my Q’s in the future.
  • Lots of complaining from the pax about lifting their arms up or something, so I guess it was a successful morning.
  • Zima was so beatdown he left before the COT almost taking out part of the circle while backing out.

Thanks for everyone coming out early on a Saturday to support my VQ!
