YHC signed up for the Q weeks ago and life throws curve balls, so in bound I had time to reflect on YHC’s dad and think of a workout. Decision made-Hot Potato Q. 6 regular SOJ men and 1 regular West Ender posted this morning to finish the work week! 0530…Mosey to parking lot near JRHS football field!
COP- arm circles x 10 small, x 5 big..forward than backward. Copperhead Squat x 15, SSH x 15, Box Cutters x 15, Leg Lifts x 15 and x10 Booyah Merkins.
Mosey to track for Merkin Mile. Partner up. As one partner runs one lap, other partner performs AMRAP Merkins and switch. Each partner runs 2 laps for one mile total. Lots of Merkins and Hardywood’s special hand release merkin!! Q handed over to DK.
Mosey to stadium entrance…Inch Worm-PAX members form a straight line in plank position. Last PAX member bear crawls to front of line. PAX followed sidewalk till 3rd light pole reached. Mosey over pullup bar-YHC had no idea it was there. Form ring of fire. 2 PAX members go over to pull up bar-x10 pull ups with spotter. In ring of fire, PAX members Al Gore and Bob and Weave while waiting there turn. 2 rounds of pull-ups for each PAX member. DK handed Q over to EF Hutton.
Mosey back to sidewalk near stadium. Touch a Light Pole-partner up. First round-partner performs monkey humpers and other partner touches 3 light poles, switch and repeat. Second round-gorilla humpers and touch 4 light poles, switch and repeat. Third round-ball dippers and touch 5 light poles, switch and repeat. No touching the same light pole!!!!
4 mins left and mosey to parking lot with leg lifts and 5 burpees OYO!! 615 and done!!
Number-ama, Name-r-ama.
Announcements-Kubota needs one more PAX member for Breaking Bread on Sunday. YHC dad’s Memorial Service, Bon Air United Methodist Church, this Sunday 1500.
YHC asked DK to take us out in honor of YHC’s dad selling his sister a car back in 1989.
NMS-Lots of mumblechatter this morning starting with-figure skating again. More like, how difficult it is watch. And downhill skiing-how many ways can you ski down a hill-Super G, Slalom, Super Duper G, One Legged Slalom…. Gumbo’s workplace has merged and Hardywood stated Gumbo does not want to go to Houston! Explanation of Esquire vs JD. Great mumblechatter on the legal world and the brief existence of HDL here in RVA. Gentlemen-life can be exponentially easier with one moral fiber-HONESTY!!!
Stron work and way to push it and finish the work week! I am thankful for our workouts and my friendships with all PAX members. Only those who post understand!!
Loud and Proud!

Great work guys – good call on the Hot Potato Flatline.
I think we have done the Merkin-mile 3 or 4 times and never the same twice…kind of like a box of chocolates with that one. It certainly got us off to a great start and got the blood pumping. Too bad DK’s friend didn’t show up then or we might have convinced him to join us — no chance he was adding on to the bear crawl Indian run — smart guy.
Thanks to EF Hutton for flying south to join us this morning. Have a great Friday guys.
Good job Flatline, the merkin mile, AKA 8 minutes of merkins is rough no matter how you do it. A flying EH is difficult when everyone is bear crawling. No one wants to walk right into a bear crawl Indian run, keep working on him DK.
Always enjoy a trip south. Sorry to lead the PAX through the muck. Can’t believe no one EH’d the M running by while doing humpers.
Great Q Flatline! Way to shake it up with the HPQ.
