ANNOUNCEMENTS.

  • IronPAX Week 5!  Giddy Up!

 

PRAYERS.

  • For the PAX who attend the complimentary workout when the cast comes off.

 

Q’S MUSINGS.

  • The Q was definitely rusty.  It showed.
  • This kind of stupid workout is what you get when everyone turns you down to cover a Q when you’re on the IR.
  • Shhh. Don’t tell my PA that I was at this workout.
  • There was absolutely no cheating at all.  None whatsoever.  Everyone explicitly followed the instructions to use ONLY their right arms.  For sure, nobody did completely different exercises than what was called.  And obviously no person over the age of 66 mouthed off to the Q.  That would be ludicrous.
  • For a ZERO merkin beatdown, there were oddly a ton of merkins being done.  Why?  And to further confuse the situation, how does two-armed merkins during COT even anything out?  #ConfusedQ
  • Somewhere in the neighborhood of round #1¼, the PAX mutiny was in full effect.  After round #3, sensing he had completely lost the faith of the PAX, the Q omaha’ed the block work fearing that the said blocks might be used to build a quick makeshift Zima-themed mausoleum in the Sherwood Elementary bus lot.
  • Schlitz – that two beer guy full of cheer – went home and repeated the entire workout with his left arm to get some balance.  The dude has some serious muscle on him.
  • Ziggy was so bored, he started babbling in French.
  • I hope Starfish isn’t reading this because he wouldn’t be too proud of how Frostbite had to “modify” the Shuttle Run.  Yeah Frostbite, you know exactly what I’m talking about.  Otherwise he killed the workout.
  • Crash has some skills with cinder block art.  You should check out the logos emblazoned on the new blocks at The Iron Throne before they end up as part of someone’s basement foundation.  I give it 3 weeks max!
  • Green Acres must have been too tired from his RI to do the proper exercises.  Yup, I’m the fool who is talking smack to the fittest man in F3WS and is the idol of us all.  Yes, there are many things wrong with me.  Listen, I’m already going straight to hell; I may have only expedited the timeline.
  • And while I’m on the subject, can we TRULY and HONESTLY define “modify AS NECESSARY”?  (Don’t worry, I’m even telling myself to shut up at this point)
  • Was Drip there?  Oh yeah, I think so.  I’m not sure what he was doing the entire time, but I felt a huge grin beaming through me from the shadows.  Of course behind that grin were some very unkind thoughts, but that’s what you get when you delve deep into the world of such a debonair gentleman.
  • It was such a quiet group this morning.  Hucklebunny tried to bring some mumble chatter, but I think even he would admit it was pretty weak.  He was probably trying to draw attention away from the fact that he used more than the requisite right arm on the exercises.  Although in fairness, he might still be on the first set of curls if we had waited for him to do those one-armed.  In retrospect, he should have taken the burpee penalty.  #OnTheWay
  • In all seriousness, it was great to be out there again, even if it was in direct defiance of doctor’s orders.  Thanks for letting me play this morning, guys.

 

FINISHED.

 

Zima Out.
