Timeout’s Birthday Bash, Minus Timeout
All The Dawg House BackblastsSeptember 10th, 2021
Bummer- Timeout got sick, missed his own Birthday Bash celebration at the Dawg House. So YHC was given the chance to step up and thankfully, 6 other strong dudes fought their way out from under the sheets to join me. Get well soon Timeout!
5:30, disclaimer given, everyone is excited and giddy to get started- let’s mosey!
Around the parking lot to the covered entrance for warmups
- Grandpa Jacks, x10 IC
- SSH, x10 IC
- Hillbillies, x10 IC
- Arm circles front and back
- Penny Pickers, x10 IC
- Low slow squats, x10 IC
To the parking lot for the main attraction. This sequence is taken from Mullet over in Harrisburg. It was so “enjoyable” that YHC decided to share it with others.
Partner up. P1 runs to the curb and back while P2 stays and does the exercise, AMRAP. P1 returns and does the exercise, AMRAP, while P2 runs to the curb and back. Each person does each exercise, then move to the next. Ended up being about 600ft of down and back running each trip.
Round 1
- Burpees
- Merkins
- CDD
- Plank
Mosey around the parking lot to the other side- no short cuts, run around the perimeter- for Round 2
- LBC
- RBC
- Low Flutter
- WWII
Mosey back to the starting spot for Round 3
- SSH
- Jump squats
- Grandpa Jacks
- Calf raises
Mosey back to the other side for Round 4
- Squats
- Lunges
- Al Gore
- Apolo Ohno
6:15, no time for Mary, Recover Recover
Announcements/Prayers
- Cleanup day at Amway’s M’s house scheduled for Oct 16, details coming soon via Hokie Pokie
- Adopted street cleanup Sept 18, let Honey Do know if you can attend so he gets an accurate number
- Torch mentioned an upcoming Ruck event, YHC honestly doesn’t want to jack up the details so ask him (sorry Torch for not listening more closely)
- Kannapolis 9/11 workout tomorrow, climbing stairs in honor of the first responders- bring a coupon to carry or just show up and be present
- BRR participants- prayers for safe travel and safe runs
- Timeout that he gets to feeling better and celebrates his birthday with better health & a party!
- Good to see Buck out pounding the ground after his knee procedure
- Prayers for all the unspoken needs and things like stress, strain, depression, anxiety, frustration, and anything else that guys just don’t talk about in the open
Moleskin- was an easy choice to step up and help Timeout out while he was under the weather. For one, I was going to show up anyway; two, might as well control the suck by leading vs. following; and three, truth is I don’t Q much so I need to give back to the cause.
Ended up right at 3 miles today with all the down and back and moseys to the starting spots. Throw in some full body exercises and we should have gotten our money’s worth today. Always “you vs. you” so no way to lose unless you just don’t show up.
Very thankful for guys showing up to join me. I never want to do these workouts alone. Thankful for the chatter which makes the time pass by quickly. Thankful for guys pushing themselves and encouraging others. Thankful for great weather and clear, starry skies. Go make a difference today.
Peace out homeys!
