As pointed out by Meatloaf over the weekend, I inadvertently signed up to Q workouts M-F of this week at essentially all of our physical locations (except the fountain I guess).  I am making a  concerted effort to not fall of the wagon during tax season this year and what better way than to Q was my train of thought.  Well, as some of you know, I am a slave to my calendar so when the calendar integration functionality went down, it obviously threw me for a loop.  (Blame Kobiyashi) Thus, you ended up with me on the Q on every weekday of this week.  Anyway, on to the workout.

10 PAX braved the cold to get a dose of a workout I had previously Q’d at the Shipyard.  The last time we performed it several folks completed the work (LiteBrite, Puddin and Smokey) so I tacked on a few additional exercises to ensure that didn’t happen again.  Much like most of my Qs, the majority of the work was OYO to ensure the PAX could push themselves as they see fit.  Not a lot of talking so I believe guys were giving it all they had.  It went like this:

Warm Up (5 mins) 

100 Merkins, 100 squats – OYO

Early Finishers get coupons lined up for PAX on sideline

The Thang – (All work OYO)

15 Burpees and 50 big boys;

14 Burpees and 50 chest presses;

13 Burpees and 50 monkey humpers;

12 Burpees and 50 flutters;

11 Burpees and 50 bicep curls;

8 Burpees and 50 KB swings;

7 Burpees and 50 bonnie blairs;

6 Burpees and 50 LBCs

5 Burpees and 50 thrusters

4 Burpees and 50 Air Squats

3 Burpees and 50 Whirley Boys

2 Burpees and 50 merkins

1 Burpee and 50 mountain climbers

Each round include a back pedal across the field and a sprint back.

Time called at 6:00.

  • Again, great work by all involved.
  • Previous incarnation of this workout stopped at the 5 Burpee/50 Thruster mark.  The additional rounds were added to ensure we got the full amount of work in.  I do not believe anyone finished, but I know several were well beyond the Thruster round.
  • After 85 burpees yesterday at Terrapin and most PAX completing in excess of 100 burpees today, Pusher commented that he has had enough of those for a while.
  • BTW, several of us are training for Spartan races.  Spartan races include a 30 burpee penalty for failing an obstacle (which will happen).  So expect burpees to be prevalent at my Qs this year.
  • Good to have Snake Eyes back with us again.  Dude put in some serious work with perfect burpee form.
  • Unfortunately it’s hard to see all the way down the sideline, but I know several folks near my end were busting tails (Snake Eyes, Duggar, Blu, Special K).
  • Raising money for 8-mile tomorrow at Starbucks so bring cash

Until tomorrow.
