One Year Anniversary Celebration (Continued)
All All MECA BackblastsMay 31st, 2016
24 men from Davis Lake, Tradition, and The Precinct came out to show support during the one year celebration beatdown at Davis Lake! As men piled out of their cars, YHC knew I had my hands full with this bunch and that the mumblechatter had the potential to be epic. @Buckwheat, @Jelly, @ManDown, @FunkyBunch, @King Julian, @Coyote…but one epic mumblechatter-er was absent. Could it be that he decided to take it easy on YHC? Was he going to hop out of the bushes and yell surprise at 5:30am? No matter what, YHC expected a loud group and came prepared to quiet them down. Here’s how it went down!
Warmorama:
10 Air Presses IC (to get the mumblechatter started)
1 Burpee
10 SSH IC
2 Burpees
10 IST IC
3 Burpees
10 CP IC
4 Burpees
10 Windmills IC
5 Burpees
10 MC IC
6 Burpees
10 Good mornings IC
7 Burpees
10 mericans IC
8 Burpees
10 air squats IC
9 Burpees
10 Michael Phelps IC
10 Burpees
10 Air Presses IC
YHC picked up on a few things during the warmorama.
1) Burpees are always a great way to quiet down the pax.
2) There were definitely some jelly lubers out there!
3) @Buckwheat said something about Davis Lake men not running.
That last comment made me revert to my original plan. My modified plan was to use the hill at the front of the clubhouse for some ladders. BUT, it’s spring time…the birds are chirping…the sun is rising during beatdowns…it was time to take a little field trip! Thanks @Buckwheat!
Mosey to the lake
Plank it up to wait for the six
Enjoy the view of the lake and the cool ducks that we scared off…
10 Air Presses IC
10 Air Squats IC
Cross the street and grab some rail
10 derkins IC
Turn around to face the rail
10 inclined mericans IC
Hop the rail and behold Capitol Hill in all its beauty!
There were some Capitol Hill virgins in the pax, so YHC figured it was time to introduce her with some ladders:
Round 1
6-1 ladder
6 mericans at the bottom
1 Bobby Hurley at the top
Work up the ladder
Plank while waiting for the six
Round 2
6-1 ladder
6 CDDs at the bottom
1 Air Squat at the top
Plank while waiting for the six
Mosey back to parking lot and on the way…
Air squats in cadence (10)
LBCs in cadence (35)
1 burpee!
People’s Mary
Moleskin:
1) Thanks so much to everyone that has supported us over this past year. Without you all (too many to name), this would not have been possible. Many of you were there this morning and you were there a year ago. Let’s be there for each other in the years to come.
2) Did anyone see @Back Cracker at the front of the pack on the way back from the hill? Is he secretly faster than we all thought or did he do some major sandbagging during the rest of the workout???
3) YHC’s favorite moment from this morning was courtesy of @FunkyBunch. When the second round of ladders was announced I heard, “Get the f&$# out of here!” I had to ask him to repeat it to confirm that’s what I heard. That’s music to YHC’s ears brother!
4) Special congratulations goes to the three men that were FNGs when this whole thing started on 5/30/15. @King Julian, @Piston, and @Preamble. It has been great seeing you guys grow over this past year. Time flies when you’re having fun!
5) Speaking of Piston, I did incorporate 365 into the beatdown. 295 reps to warm us up at the start of the beatdown + 70 LBCs at the end gave us 365. The burpee before Mary gave us 366 for leap year. #checkmymath
Have a good week!

Good work guys! Sound off!
It’s amazing what happens when you make a workout hard!!!
So cool to see what you guys have started over there! Great work by everyone there, especially @Farm!
Strong work today @Dingo!
You thought that was hard??? 😉
Great workout Farm! Glad I could be apart of this crazy thing and wow @Dingo what a beast today!
Farm- solid Q today. T-claps to the Davis Lake pax on their first year.
T-Claps to @Farm for stepping up to be the Master Q at Davis Lake. SOLID beatdown today, brother. However, I expected a better disclaimer from a Master Q. Didn’t you learn how to do a proper one from @Dingo at Q school? Oh yeah, he fartsacked that too! #leaderbyexample
Always love visiting this AO. Tremendous progress has been made there by all. Kudos to everyone, but especially the OG’s @Piston, @Preamble, and @King Julian who are the heart and sole of DL. Way to step and lead, guys. Keep EH’ing! With the recent infusion of youth (Class V and all his cronies) there is a great deal of potential to grow even more in year two. Keep it up!
Glad to hear that you know “words” @Coyote.
You’re welcome @Farm and pax for the inspiration to visit Capital Hill. No anniversary beatdown would be complete without that damn hill! #stillhateitayearlater, especially over on the right (or summit) where @Funky Bunch and I were sucking wind. Shame on the rest of you for climbing the left side (err nipple) ;-).
BW Out (insert glove drop here). Hilarious Ghetto D!
Great BEATDOWN today The Farm. Thanks for all of your hard work this past year. It was great seeing you before 5:30 AM for once. I was truly inspired by all of the @Dingo mumble chatter. That guy always brings it…or not. As I’ve displayed in the past, I can be very fast for very short distances. I have more of a sprinter’s physique than a long distance runner’s. How was buckwheat there today? He’s been dead to me for about 2 weeks.
Did you guys see @Dingo out there today?! Man, talk about fast!
Great job @Farm and Davis Lake Pax! Way to grow a solid group. Great one year beatdown – including running and hills… Warm-up was impressive. Air presses? – now I know that is an exercise! Because the Master Q says so.
Nice beatdown today Farm. I’m impressed with what you guys have accomplished here at Davis Lake this past year. I need to come over more often, especially when I don’t want to run. 😉
Here’s a nice little synopsis I gave to the missing dingo today:
– @Farm has boobies (B cup)
– @King Julian can’t do squats (that’s saying a lot coming from me, because I can’t do them either)
– @Funky loves his fairy pose
– @Farm can do some burpees (Buckwheat did point out that it’s easy to do burpees when you weigh 130 pounds and are only 4’2″
– @Man Down is a beast on Capitol Hill. You were tearing it up brother.
– I’m pretty sure it was @Piston giving me a hard time when we were doing the homer to marge routine (along with @Funky). But at least @Funky was doing them. Piston had his feet on the ground when he gave me a hard time.
– And welcome back to the humidity.
Haha that was @Class V giving you a hard time. But that’s his thing during HTM. He does that to everyone. I actually kind of set you up for that…I knew you would pick that exercise lol!
Also, I missed @Funky’s fairy pose??
Hold itttt! Haha it was totally all @Piston
Congrats DLake on 1 year!!
Imagine the love I would’ve received if I’d actually been there……
Now for the lies…..Backcracka thinks he is a sprinter??? Wow….. And BC, I didn’t see you at the actual Anniversary Beatdown yesterday? But that did involve running…….
No lies other than that. The rest of you got it right…..beast…..fast……but you forgot “asleep”…….
LOL!!!
Funky did look like a Vegas Show Girl when doing IST’s.
BC- Glad you’re not an MD since I’m dead to you…
Jelly- I said Farm was 4′ 3″, not 4′ 2″…
Oops, my bad…farm, you’re 4’3″, not 4’2″. Sorry about that buckwheat.
Elegance and grace fellas
#jealousywillgetyounowhere
Congrats on 1-yr #DavisLake! Excellent leadership by @TheFarm and dedication from pax like @KingJulian, @Piston, @PointBreak, @BackCracker, and @ClassV, to name a few regulars.
Davis Lake is a great AO with still many untapped #sadclowns in the hood. #alwaysbeEHing
@Dingo – You were missed, and mercilessly defamed throughout. #whatdiduexpect
#ahoy
Dingo, the man who named me and where was he, why the no show Dingo, Why???
…… @forgottonj jelly… it was Class V not me, although the “Hold it” thing he did get from me, show to know when I am Q’ing.
Farm, thank you for keeping us together this past year. Just when I am thinking of FS’ing, in comes a text from Farm…… just when I can’t imagine doing one more rep of something, Farm was there to encourage. Leadership that
My bad brother.
Did you fall asleep while writing this @Piston??? Good seeing you this morning afterwards.
Congratulations Davis Lake AO pax on your one year Anniversary. Congratulations @TheFarm on your Master Q leadership. I agree with Skipper that there are many sad clowns in the Davis Lake surrounding neighborhoods who desperately need F3 life-support. I will be signing up to Q on a monthly basis. See you in the gloom! Aye!
Inspirational sprint on th way back to the clubhouse, @Backcracker.
We couldn’t find Dingo, he must have been 6 today, anybody pick him up yet?
@Dingo was very six. Always better to be six that fartsacking – I can tell you that from recent personal fartsacking experience.
When I first read this backblast I thought it was going to be all about Davis Lake turning 1! But it appears that my fartsacking is far more interesting to the pax…….strange lot that F3Nation…….very strange……
