Date: 06/09/2026
PAX: @Ziggy, @Boomerang, @Cruiser, @Adobe, @Tonka, @Spamalot, @Ziffel, @Subfloor, @Blind Date, @Greenspan (EC), @SeaMan, @Frostbite (QIC, YHC, WB)
Coming off Qs on Friday and Monday, YHC was feeling good and ready to keep the momentum with a Q on Tuesday. Come Monday morning, YHC completed writing his backblasts from the previous 2 Qs and texted @Tonka to confirm he still had me down to hold court for the people. He did. YHC begins formulating a plan that increasingly comes to a fully-baked status before YHC logs off work. I put the finishing touches on my weinke, pick out a playlist, and charge the speaker. All set, right? WRONG.
As YHC was tucking himself into bed and setting my alarm, my phone buzzes. Slack Notification. @Spamalot (Nan Emeritus) posts that there was not a preblast for #Parliament but he was an HC. My mind starts to race. YHC swears he posted the pre-blast. Again, the checklist was 1) confirm Q, 2) come up with beatdown 3) make weinke, 4) tunes. YHC quickly checks the #Preblast channel. Dang – did not check that off.
Anywho, YHC quickly replies to @Spam and to the channel saying YHC had the keys.
Oh boy, the grief YHC got as I slowly approach to launch the next morning was something. You guys deserve better. My apologies.
With that mistake in mind, we began the workout and I knew I would repay my debt. Here is what we did:
Warmarama:
SSH x 20 IC
1 Burpee
IST x 15 IC
1 Burpee
Hillbillies x 10 IC
1 Burpee
Arm Swirlies of multiple varieties
1 burpee
Mosey to blocks and return to Launch.
The Thang:
There would be a start line with a cone. 4 parking spaces away, there would be another cone. That would be the end line.
YHC instructed the #PAX that we would do 3 man grinders but not really. Triple up. 1 Pax at start line. 1 PAX at end line. 1 Pax does mode of transportation. Alternate positions depending on MOT pax reaches you. Every exercise was OYO and cumulative reps. Once you finish the reps for exercise individually, move onto next exercise and mode of transportation.
- 50 Merkins (MOT: Bear Crawl Push)
- 50 Electric Charis (DC) (MOT: Murder Bunny)
- 50 Freddie Mercs (DC) (MOT: Bus Drivers)
- 50 Burpees (MOT: Reverse Bear Crawl Pull)
- 50 SSH (MOT: Lunge Walk)
- 50 Diamond Merkins (MOT: Bear Crawl Push)
- 50 Calf Raises(MOT: Murder Bunny)
- 50 H2H (MOT: Bus Drivers)
- 50 Burpees (MOT: Reverse Bear Crawl Pull)
- 50 SSH (MOT: Lunge Walk)
- 50 Crucible Merkins (MOT: Bear Crawl Push)
- 50 Monkey Humpers (MOT: Murder Bunny)
- 50 American Hammers (MOT: Bus Drivers)
- 50 Burpees (MOT: Reverse Bear Crawl Pull)
- 50 SSH (MOT: Lunge Walk)
Most #PAX got to round 9 or 10 before TIME was called for some Mary which had the usual suspects
NMM:
YHC provided 2 weinkes. One for the Start Line. One for the End Line. That was appreciated although my font got smaller as it went down the weinke
People were impressed with the size of my weinke. x 2!
While writing the Weinke, my M kindly noted that this workout looked awful. I hope the other guys also thought that.
Very early on, @Spam who is coming off the IL, states “Yeah, I don’t think I can do any of this workout.” He still pushed through and modified what worked for him.
@Boomerang who is not on the IL did not do any of the workout out of spite.
@Cruiser was out front all morning with little complaining. He made it look easy.
@Subfloor complained a lot about the format of the beatdown
@Tonka complained a lot about the exercises
@Adobe complimented the music
@Ziggy was confused the whole time
@Ziffel was shirtless the whole time
@Blind Date crushed it the whole time
@SeaMan did not say a word the whole time
@Greenspan had a hole in his head the whole time
Announcements:
SiteQ handoff at #Alcatraz
July 4th Convergence – Stay tuned for details
Prayers:
None Spoken!
@Tonka thanks for the keys and not covering me on the preblast. #Accountability
All the love,
Frostbite
