April 11, 2018

WHEN: 04/11/2018
QIC: Scrooge McDuck
PAX: Mr. Brady, Crockett, Roach, Tater Tot, Bob Uecker, Three-Peat, Funny Money, Soda Popinski, Cyanide, Chubbs, Prosecco, Chowdah, Screech

As far as April mornings have gone this year, this morning was ideal for my VQ . Low 40s. Perfect shorts and t-shirt weather.

Warm up:

● 25 SSH
● 10 GM
● 10 MC
● 10 WMH
● Mosey a lap around the parking lot where we grabbed some rail and did 15 rockette dips.
● Mosey to the back of the school mixed with high knees and butt-kickers.

The thang:

Up until last night, I had a vague idea of what I wanted to do for the workout. YHC then found his inspiration watching tv on what many would call the greatest rivalry in baseball, Red Sox & Yankees.
With an absolute pumbling last night of 14-1, and YHC being a big Sox fan, I decided to incorporate those stats somehow someway into the workout.

● A Jacob’s Ladder that consisted of the following: the first side of the island started with 14 merkins before running to the second island to do a single jump squat. Counts went down on the first and up on the second after each passing in increments of one to equal 15

14-1
13-2
12-3 etc.

I, and a few of the PAX began to quickly realize that jump squats are no joke after about 7.

Plank was held until all PAX finished.

A test of endurance was next on the list with the people’s chair along the school wall. Roach came out victorious. (you’re all winners in my book, gents)

Mosey back to the front of the school for mary.

Mary:

● 20 American/Russian/Thor/whatever the proper name for them is hammers.
● Ring of fire 5 count plank hold.
● 30 flutter kicks
● 20 LBCs.

Announcements:

The Bull this Saturday (4/14) at the Eno at Westpoint from 7-11am. I’m told it’s best to bring an extra set of clothes since we’re bound to get wet.

Also, Mr. Brady brought it to our attention that during name-o-rama, that after we say our F3 names, everyone else is supposed to say “hate” to that person.

2 if that person is in their 20s
1 in their 30s
I have looked this up and can confirm this to be true. Amazing what you can find searching the Lexicon.

I guess you get a free pass once you hit 40.
OBT and Dredd must really not care for this millennial generation. Whether this will become a thing in the future, only time will tell.

Shout out to Funny Money for coming out to his first Hurricanara workout as an official site! Hopefully I didn’t scare him off and he comes back for more.

And shout out to Chubbs on his glorious return to Hurricanrana. We missed you, brother. Good to have you back!

YHC took us out.
