The great AO swap of 2018 (1 of 2)


Looking for a changeup and thinking about how to support other AOs, Deep Dish and I said what they heck, let’s Q each other’s AO. As far as I know in the history of F3, this has never been done before (references: not researched – unverifiable).

Not listed – Lil Buddy (Skipper-MECA’s 2.0)

Warm Up

After some introductions I met Skipper MECA and immediately confused him with Denver’s Skipper, who by the way hit his 100th workout of the year last week (source <– real source)

We started precisely at 5:30 with a quick mosey around the theater, returning to the front of the building and meeting up with Omega + Bailey (dog) and Soprano + Rambo (2.0).

  • SSH
  • Windmill
  • Squat-Imperial Storm Troopers (counted as; [1] squat down [2] up [3] right-elbow to raised left knee [4] left-elbow to raised right knee)
    • This one was a little weird. None of us was coordinated or in sync with another. We probably looked like the crowd at a Phish concert.
  • Carrot Puller

The Thang

Brief mosey to the East side of the building

  • Peoples’ Chair with air presses
  • Perfect `merkins
  • Repeato

Brief mosey to the West side of the building

  • Pickle Pounders
  • Little Baby Crunches
  • Repeato

Brief mosey to the Cranlyn/Formby intersection

  • Monkey Humpers (with interruptions from speeding cars trying to get to their Clean Juice Bar workouts)
  • Squats
  • Repeato

Brief mosey to the fountain

  • Dips
  • Declined `merkins
  • Repeato

Shuffle over to the theater’s entrance

  • Lieutenant Dan (which I poorly described for the PAX and Kosar had to re-explain it for me)
  • Sixes (normally would be 11’s but we had only 9 minutes until Mary was to begin)
    • Perform 5 burpees, run to the other end of the entrance, perform 1 WWII sit-up. Run back to the other entrance and perform 4 burpees. Run back and do 2 WWII sit-ups. Each set must have 6 reps. Continue until you’ve hit 1 burpee and 5 WWII sit-ups.

Mary

  • Roadie – Pretzel Crunch
  • Omega – Heels to heaven
  • Stapler – The W
  • Kosar – Mason Twist
  • Tupak – `merkin
  • Tiramisou – box cutters
  • Skipper MECA – Xs and Os

Moleskin

I had a great time Q-ing Hollywood today. Being the MQ at The Mighty Oak I don’t get out to other Wednesday workouts that often (or ever). Thanks Omega for taking us out in a prayer! Thanks Deep Dish!
