YHC was in Wal-Mart last week to pick up an anniversary card for the M.  The cashier saw the card and said, “aww, it’s your anniversary, how sweet!”  I replied, “yup, 8 of the best years of my life!”  She said, “wow, you’ve been married for 8 years?”  I said, “nope, I’ve been married for 16 years!” 

Since my wedding was in 2003, I downloaded a bunch of random songs last night from the top 100 of 2003 and carried around a speaker this morning playing those sweet, sweet jams.

Warm-Up

Mosey around the parking lot

Irkins on the curb x16

Squat jumps x16

Baby dips on the curb x16IC

The Thang

Crowd pleasers pyramid (Merkin:Groiner) 1:1 up to 4:4 back down to 1:1

Mosey to the stairs

Run up and back down the stairs 8 times, stopping every other time for Johnny Dramas x16IC (so 4 sets of JDs total)

Mosey back to the front of the school

Circle up for plank hold/medicine ball merkins.  Hold plank. When the medicine ball gets to you, 2 merkins, 1 with the ball under left hand, 1 with the ball under right hand.  We did this so the medicine ball went around to everyone twice.

WWII (medicine ball), Overhead Press (25lb dumbbell), Squat (cinderblock) combo whereby each PAX did 10 reps of the each exercise with the weight and 30 reps of each exercise without the weight.

About 8 rounds of name that tune…circle up for SSH while listening to the songs from 2003.  If the group knew the song title and artist, it was 5 merkins.  If not, it was 5 penalty burpees.  Thanks to Jingle’s skills, penalty burpees were only assessed once (with special shoutout to Zook for knowing Nelly’s Air Force Ones well before a word was actually spoken on that track).

Mary

Dying cockroach x16IC

Box cutters x16IC

YHC was supposed to have the Q last Friday (6/21) on his actual anniversary but had to postpone a week due to work travel.  Due to being 7 days late, 7 penalty burpees were assessed.  And with that, we’re done!

With my recent wedding anniversary, I was reminded of the commitment we make and the burden we bear as men to be the best husband, father, son, friend, etc. we can be for the sake of those around us.  Continue to nurture those relationships and strengthen those commitments.

I always enjoy Q’ing #themustang and getting Friday started off right.  It sets me up for a good Friday and a great weekend in general.  Get after it this weekend, men.  Until next time, aye!
