Q Mountie
OCT

False fall morning. 11 pax came to play.

Tombstone Homeland Crabgrass Neverland Marlboro Beaker Catfish Brickyard Spud Total Package Mountie

Mosey to the new courthouse plaza so the early morning construction workers can mock us and giggle. Tombstone gave them a few monkey humpers, because that’s what they really needed to see. Slap jacks, leg stretches, cobra, planks, arm circles. Spud’s 6:28 arriving ass requested a long warmup so he got it.

Mosey to the top of the new deck.

10 merkins 10 dips — run to the top for 10 KGB IC and 10 low flutter IC

Repeat at 9, then 8, down to 1. Tombstone missed these instructions because he insisted on getting a head start on the A Team of Brickyard and Marlboro.

Mosey to the old deck with an audible at the Shuping statue for 3 burpees.

5 burpees, then quadro-mania up the ramp. Then slow mosey to the next level. 5 squats then quadro-mania up the ramp. Do this until the top level. 3 burpees then down the swampy stairwell and do it all again.

Mosey back to OCT.

15 curls 15 overhead press 15 skull crushers

Move to the other side of the parking lot for up downs. Mountie called the first set then called on Cat. Everybody got a chance to call a set which is great because it gave Crabgrass, Brickyard, and Beaker a taste of Q-ing.

Was it brickyard who called 20 merkins in his up down set?? Just craziness. Crabgrass called ISTs so that was a nice break. Thanks man!  Catfish is pretty intense at those things but we all know that. Beaker can’t speak English when he calls an exercise so that’ll be fun when he Q’s for sure.

Mosey at your own pace for one lap around Tombstone’s block to kill the final few minutes.

Prayers and name O rama at 7:28

Great weather.  Blessings to our wives and children. We thank God for lighting our path as fathers and leaders.
I guess my 6 year anniversary is close? 7? I don’t know. I don’t even know what month it was. How you guys remember that and find the workout BB I’ll never know.
I just recall doing boring 4am gym workouts by myself at headquarters. Just trying to stay active and healthy, but really trying to just break up a long 12 hour night shift. I didn’t know what I was doing at all, just throwing some stupid dumbbells around. BCR would start texting me at like 4:30talking about some outside workout he was headed to. I would ask, “are you slinging ropes around, like silly cross fit??”  Either way, he locked me in, gave me a cool name, and I never looked back. The gym is for SOME people, but not THIS guy.
I’d rather be with you guys. Being shaped into a better man, husband, father.
Kind of sappy. But all true. Love you guys.
