Block Party

December 1, 2020

WHEN: 12/01/2020
QIC: Cosmo
PAX: Scapula, Castaway, WeedNFeed, Jellystone, Cardiac, Awesome Baby, Kia, Swamp, Geppetto [FNG]

The cache of cinderblocks donated recently by noted fitness expert/mensch Pallino have already gotten a lot of use. May get to the point, a la the steel at House of Pain, where it will be the rare Q that doesn’t incorporate them somehow.

Decided to go all in on the cinderblock today, with an emphasis on back and biceps. Been trying lately to make sure we work pullers as much as pushers.

Pleased to have 10 on a chilly morning, just the right number to be able to stay in one very distanced group. Awesome to have an FNG as well, recruited by Frizzle.

After a standard warm up we moseyed one at a time to cinder blocks, giving each other a wide berth as we collected our coupons and formed a big circle in the side parking lot.

  • Rows X 50
  • High pulls X 10
  • Curls X 20
  • 20 weighted squats
  • 20 cinderblock merkins, 10 each side

Blocks overhead to blacktop
Repeat above

Brisk move to starting point
Repeat

Brisk move to front of school
Repeat

  • Flutter kick with blocks overhead X 40 IC

Replace cinder blocks

Mosey home for Mary

LBC X 25 IC
Heels to Heaven X 30IC
Plank ROF – 5 merkins each
Couldn’t let our FNG go through his first workout without burpees, so finished with The Uzi Special, 20 burpees oyo

COT

Weed N Feed noted an empty spot on the Q sheet next week, and Kia promptly volunteered. So that took care of that. Our FNG enjoys woodworking and has an 18-month-old with another on the way, which led Scapula to Geppetto. The clear winner. Hope to see him back out next week!

YHC took us out.

MOLESKIN

Today was a grind, and kind of boring. YHC needs to start exploring the Exicon again for fresh ideas. Q rut! Thanks to the PAX for sticking with it, and hopefully getting all JACKED will make up for the snooze fest. Aye!
