Channeling Our Inner Elvis
All Highlands BackblastsAugust 23rd, 2018
As a PAX of 20 slowly gathered in the gloom, YHC was surprised by the cool breeze and low humidity. It was bantered about that @Conchito might have opted for the hoodie, but he brought the gun show instead. Expect to the hoodie to return by the middle of September. Disclaimer given and a mosey began to…
WARMARAMA:
- SSH x 19
- IST x 17
- Mountain Climber x 15
- Cotton Picker x 13
- Merkin x 11
THE THANG:
The PAX tightened the circle and began the first set of the following
- A.T.E.P. Squats (Ankle Touch Elvis Pelvis)
- Jump Squats
- Lower Half
- Hold Halfway
10 count
Mosey to playground and formed one line. While groups of four rotated to 5 Pull-ups, the line worked on the calves with some hops until everyone had rotated through.
Mosey to the rail for the following
- Dips
- Incline Merkins
- Derkins
- Hold Halfway
10 Count
With a group of 20, @Bling convinced YHC to have 3 lines for an Indian Run that proved slightly congested.
- 15 count for the lower body exercises
- Lunges during the Pull-ups
- 15 count at the rail
Not sure how it’s possible, but 2 lines for an Indian Run proved more chaotic than 3.
- 20 count on lower body
- LBCs during Pull-ups
- 20 count at the rail
The PAX found its sweet spot with a single line on the Indian run.
- 15 on lower
- Lunges during Pull-ups
- 15 at rail
Riot Run to just inside bus lot
- 10 on lower
- No Pull-ups
- 10 at rail
A mosey started back across the bus lot with a reverse mosey thrown in to…
MARY:
- Pretzel Crunch x 15
- Box Cutter x 15
- Freddy Mercury x 15
- Low Flutter x 20
- Squirm x 15
COT and BOM!
A PELVIS THRUSTING MOLESKIN:
- Great work today men! Sorry to disappoint @TheNanny by not doing Pull-ups on the last round, but the clock was ticking.
- Glad @Deuce made it up from East Charlotte to deliver a patch to @Barrister for his efforts in the latest CSAUP challenge. Sadly @Barrister had either #fartsacked or #smartsacked and will have to gain possession at a later time. Usually possession is 9/10th of the law, but being a lawyer it’s highly likely @Barrister could threaten @TheNanny with some fancy legal terms and obtain his patch without litigation.
- YHC chose A.T.E.P. for the express purpose of creating better form and better mumblechatter. But for whatever reason, @Disaster seemed extremely proud of his Elvis Pelvis performance. One can only hope F3 pays residual dividends in other areas.
- YHC wasn’t comfortable with @Charmin doing proper ATEP form at my back in close proximity. It only got weirder when @Charmin commented, “You’re looking good.” #NotThatKindOfMensGroup
- Murphy on Monday at the Sports Club with a 0530 start.
Always and honor to lead the PAX!

Thanks for leading us today @Alcatraz. I enjoyed the ATEP way more than I should have. At my age my pelvis is not getting nearly as much activity as it used to so it was nice to get things moving again. Special thanks (or maybe not) to @Glock for admiring my technique.
FYI – @Barrister is still on medical leave with a broken foot so we’ll give him a pass for not showing up this morning.
I’ll make sure I bring a speaker next time and play Barry White for you and @Glock
