Once again we learned how the men of Churham have ADHD. The question of who had the Q for Saturday, was posted on Slack. The question was answered with calls for an EC ruck; way to stay on topic men. As the 5 EC Rucker’s returned to join the assembled PAX, it was clear we had no Q. Adolphus’s name was listed on the TBL sign-up, but he’s out of town. A quick meeting of the minds occurred and the Replacements were formed.

Warm-Up: Funny Money
Side Shuffle Hop (just for Riggs)
Willie Mays Hayes
Imperial Walker
Prison Squats
Slow Merkins

The Thang
Part 1: Riggs
Backwards run up the top of the BFH. PAX held a decline plank on the rail while the 6 made it to the top. On the railing Riggs lead us through 3 exercises. 15 derkins, 20 dips, and 15 clap irkins. We then walking lunged from the top of the hill to the last tree along the driveway leading into the Githens bus lot. Riggs then told us to perform 10 burpees, and then backwards run back to the stop sign by the railing. Pleather proved to be extremely fast on this backwards run. We then did another round of the three exercises against the rail: derkins, dips, and irkins.

Part 2: Te’o
The Q torched was passed, and Te’o lead us to the end of the driveway by the main road. We got into six lines and began duck walking back up to the top. Scrooge McDuck was very excited to be duck walking, probably before he realized how much this sucked. We stopped about halfway up to avoid getting ran over by Cheese Splint on the way out, and Te’o lead us in some smurf jacks. The PAX then continued the duck walk back to the top of the hill, at this point our six line formation was completely nonexistent.
Now that the legs were toasted, Te’o completely obliterated the shoulders next. YHC can’t recall the particular order, but we did a lot of exercises consecutively while never having our arms come down past our shoulders. There were overhead claps, seal claps, and other things sprinkled in, but arms stayed up all the time.

Part 3: Shake It
YHC was finally tagged in, and we ran down to the rock garden. YHC instructed everyone to find a rock that they could hold with one hand. We got into a high plank position on the field, and performed rows with the rocks while in plank. Cadence count of 10 to each hand. Staying in plank we then raised the rocks out directly in front of us. Cadence count of 5 to each hand. PAX could drop to their knees for a modification, thank you Te’o for the good question. Next up, we then bear crawled with our rocks from the endline to midfield. At midfield 10 cadence count shoulder press on each shoulder. YHC then had the PAX perform merkins on the rocks. Right hand on the rock, merkin, shift so left hand is on the rock, merkin, and repeat. 10 total merkins here. YHC closed out with broad jumps back to the endline. Drop the rocks off boys.

Mary: Q School
It was decided that different members of the PAX would get the opportunity to lead an exercise, and practice proper cadence counting. The only way to get good at something is through practice. Riggs went over the basics.
Next exercise is ________________. Ready position move, in cadence, and exercise. Emphasis that your counting should match the tempo in which the exercise should be performed by all PAX.
YHC can’t remember who lead what, but we had LBC’s, WWIIs, alternative version of WWIIs, Mountain Climbers, and Russian Hammers

Coffeeteria Notes:
Riggs’ parenting was called into question as he allowed his children to play outside of Panera. No one can accuse Riggs of being a helicopter parent.
