Can we do that at Hollywood?


16 Hard chargers at Hollywood on a cold day.  YHC wasn't sure what was allowed and where, but the PAX kept us in line.  Here is their story:

0500:  Mr. Holland and YHC for a slowsey.  Conditions are still icy.  Mr. Holland was kind enough to show YHC where the cinder blocks are, which is a better location than the rocks so we used them.

0530:  Disclaimer given.  Mosey towards the stores on the right side of the theater including:  high knees, butt kickers, and exaggerated long striders.

WARM-O-RAMA:

  • Happy Jacks (SSH x 5 IC, followed by 2 jump squats OYO) x 5

The “try to hit some lesser used muscle groups” thing:

  • Calf declines (raise up on both calves, then slowly drop on one side only) left x 10 OYO
  • Calf declines right x 10 OYO
  • Glute raises for 10 count x 5
  • Glute raise left leg only 5 seconds x 5 OYO
  • Glute raise right leg only 5 seconds x 5 OYO

Mosey to the Chipotle parking lot.  Everyone grabbed 1 cinder block and partnered up for:

  • Partner 1:  Bent over block rows x 25 OYO while Partner 2 planks.
  • Flip flop and repeato until each team did 200.  (4 sets each)
  • Recovery mosey / sprints (80% / 85%)
  • Leg throw downs in sets of 25 until each team did 150.  (3 sets each)

Then everyone:

  • Jump over your block x 25 OYO
  • Block front shoulder press x 10 IC
  • Block curls x 10 IC
  • Block incline Mericans x 10 IC
  • Bent over rock rows AMRAP x 1 minute
  • Zamporini hold as long as possible

Put blocks away.  Mosey to a covered parking area for:

  • “The Protractor”:  Holds at 30, 60, 90 (BTTW), 60, and 30 degrees.  About 10 seconds ish at each.
  • People's Chair with air presses x 10 IC

Mosey to the theater for Mary.

Mary:

  • Sideways plank walk along the oval in front of the movie theater.
  • Low Flutters x 25 IC
  • LBCs x 25 IC
  • Crunchy Frog x 10 IC
  • Man maker elbow plank x 10 IC

Mosey to the cars.  Hold the "Al Gore" while counting off.

Recover, recover.  We covered somewhere between 1.0 and 1.5 miles I think.  Cobains, forgot to turn my Garmin off until the 2nd or 3rd light on 73 so I don't have an exact distance. *shrug*

Moleskin:

  • Omega and Yosemite claim we may have left before 0530.  Cobains that we didn't warm up at the gather area.  Glad you found us.
  • Yosemite and Landline would still be holding their cinder blocks overhead if YHC didn't call it after ~2 minutes.  #Beasts
  • So many respects (Riverboat, Turbo, Hasselhoff, and Deep Dish) and "near respects" (Spreader, Metallica, and Ninja Turtle all 49).  Inspiring to see all these guys just crush it today.
  • And we had 2 "hates" in Dingo and Bouncey House but we don't actually hate them because their mumblechatter was on point.  During one of the Sprints, Dingo:  "Don't look back, but we're here I assure you".  And during partner stuff they wondered if it was too late to change partners, lol.  Dingo has the Q next week at Hollywood, FYI.
  • Hasselhoff and Hat Trick partnered up and by their conversation it sounded like the first time they met.  That can't be correct?  Nice work.
  • Our lone "hate hate" was Mr. Holland who asked YHC not to mention it was he who showed me where the blocks were…oh sorry.  Appreciate the 2nd F today and partnering with me on the exercises.
  • Always good to catch up with my #GRH006 battle buddy Tuffy.  Strong work today my dude.
  • Appreciate the opportunity to lead Deep Dish.  Apologies had to cancel a few weeks back.  Great crew here.  Reminder that the Hollywood calendar is open for December 26.

Always a pleasure to lace them up with the men of F3.
