Black Friday Pyramids

November 27, 2020

WHEN: 11/27/2020
QIC: Botched/OPEC
PAX: Beano, Prancing Horse, Barksdale (respect!), Yurt (respect!), Grandpa Ninja (respect!), Jingle Vader (respect! DR from New Orleans), Walkabout, Llama llama

This wasn’t supposed to be the plan. This could easily be describing all of 2020. Plans changed, trips modified or cancelled, family gatherings taking place over Zoom, if at all.  But of course what we’re really talking about here is today’s Q at Churham’s Premier Friday AO, #thefalcon. Certified Big Name™️ Sweats was on the Q sheet… but his newly-arriving 2.0 had other ideas.

So, a day after all of the turkey, and all of the fixins, 10 PAX gathered in the gloom to find YHC and OPEC taking over to Co-Q on Black Friday.

 

Warmup (OPEC)

  • SSH
  • LBAC/Reverse
  • Slow Merkins
  • WMH

PAX were reminded to keep their distance, and Moseyed to the middle parking lot, where they spread out along the curb. First exercise, the Merkin Pyramid (Botched)

  • 1 Merkin
  • Run to far curb
  • 2 Merkins
  • Run back
  • 3 Merkins, and repeat, up to 10 and then back down to 1

 

This was so much fun, we followed it up with a Jump Squat Pyramid (Botched)

  • 1 Jump Squat
  • Run to far curb
  • 2 Jump Squats
  • Run back
  • 3 Jump Squats, and repeat, up to 10 and then back down to 1

 

PAX then Moseyed to the upper parking lot, for a variation – WW2 Ladder (OPEC)

  • 2 WW2s
  • Bear crawl to middle of the parking lot
  • 4 WW2s
  • Bear Crawl back
  • 6 WW2s, and repeat, counting by 2’s, up to 20

 

PAX headed back toward Startex, but took a final detour under the I-beams for a Pyramid of Pull-ups (Botched)

  • 3 Pull-ups (combine 1 +2)
  • 4 Pull-ups
  • 5 Pull-ups

No Announcements from the PAX today. Q sheet is open for 2021. Make a resolution to put your name on it!

Prayer requests for Tina, who passed away.

OPEC took us out, reminding us all to be Thankful, and to think of others who may be struggling in this difficult time.

SYTIG!
