The PAX:

florida, water wings, gilmore, pacer, sprinkler, checkbook, lucky charms, duvet, kay, dr. evil, epstein

Eleven of the strongest in K-ville posted for an invigorating 60 minutes of fitness, fellowship and counting for the first Saturday Q by YHC since ’15.  We began with a short disclaimer that consisted of a summary of phantom broken bones #gettingoldaintforsissies before moseying to the b-ball court.  This Q was inspired by a loose interpretation of a hobbit’s meal pattern which I only know about because of what I have been told my own habits mimic.  I cannot confirm or deny that Peregine Took eats elevensies – but it is one of my favorite mealtimes

Warm-o-Rama

Imperial Walkers x 20 IC; Copperhead Squats x 15 IC; Dean Vigotas x 12; High Knees x 15 IC.

Mosey to the front flag-facing hill for Elevens

Start at the bottom of the hill with side-plank push-ups (each side) run to top next to the road for monkey humpers + a single burpee halfway up and down.  Some of the PAX thought it better to take the Q into their own hands from the start on this one and reverse the order… the most memorable track from this part was “Walk this Way” because I heard a lot of singing between counts.

Mosey to outdoor amphitheater for more Elevens

Abyss Merkins (florida style) – low and deep between the benches – deep lunges on the stage.  Run through the Jungle was the highlight here particularly for the commie of the group (lucky charms’ accent has faded a bit over the last 180’ish years)

Stairway to Heaven was a #crowdpleaser!  we switched directions on the stairs after about 5 min, but kay stayed in the middle of the crowd running a line all his own

we moseyed to the car-rider benches for what would not be had by many of the PAX.  single-leg hip thrusts x 10 (aka quad spasms) + bridge thrusts with feet up on the benches were attempted by most.  there was a sublime effort here by the most nimble member of our group.  the raider football crowd got more than they bargained for with shorts higher than bambi on a windy summer ‘morn, so we high-tailed our way to the guardrail to finish the repeato of this one.  hound dog played as we tucked tail to get away

mosey to the b-ball courts for 6MOM

freddy mercury x 20 IC; low dolly x 20 IC; rosalita x 20 IC; cindy crawford x 12 IC (each side); american hammer x 24 IC

it is an honor every time I get to be a part of this group gents.  Thanks gilmore for leading us out with knees down and 22 for the heroes so often neglected in our society.
