Q: Escalade

16 Men entered the gloom at Hickory Ridge today to put in some work and get a little stronger.   Here’s how it went:

Warm Up:

Through the lot

• high knees
• butt kickers
• side shuffle both sides
• high knee skip

Circle Up: 

• 15 SSH
• 15 Imp Storm Troopers
• 10 Winmill
• 10 Merkins
• 15 Mtn Climbers

Mosey to the Wall: 

Peoples Chair Leap Frog.  PAX lined up on wall holding peoples chair.  Starting at the end,  run to the post and back, to people chair position at the other end.   Continue in that fashion until all PAX had completed a run.

BTW / Donkey kick leap frog.  Same thing except PAX held BTW or Donkey Kick on wall until all PAX completed the run.

Mosey to the tennis courts: 

3 court circuit workout – 3 sets of each exercise.    PAX divided up into 3 groups to start exercises by group and rotate until all 3 exercises were completed 3 times.

• Court 1 – Side Shuffle 10 times to 1/2 court
• Court 2 – one leg side hop using the Deuce lines 8 times
• Court 3 – front and back line hops 20 times

Same thing as above but different exercises

• Court 1 – bear crawl across court and craw bear back 1 time
• Court 2 – crab walk across the court and walk crab back 1 time
• Court 3 – 10 burpees

PAX choice – LEGS vs ARMS – Legs won

• Quadraphillia on the hill behind the courts for 4 minutes.

Mosey back to the car lot and circle up

Mary:   

• Wexler led 10 W’s
• JD led 10 Crunch Frogs
• 10 Bicycle
• 10 LBC

COT:

1. Prayers for schools across the country for safety and healing.
2. Prayers for Dr Lectors nephew for successful surgery and recovery.
3. Prayers for our brothers that are sick, injured, or unable to make it out.

Mole Skin: 

• Welcome back Mis-Fire (formerly known as Kelseaking!)  Great to see you back in the gloom. Keep posting, it doesn’t get easier but you will get stronger.
• Some things look better on paper.   This is one tough group.  Despite the ridiculous BTW/Donkey kick for what seemed like an eternity you did it!
• Coffeteria was again the highlight of the morning.  With discussions like – school violence, Escalade’s easy Q’s,  and on a brighter note – “too hot to be a parishioner” part2, and some Irish traditions.

Have a blessed day,

YHC – Escalade

Harrisburg, The Ridge
