Expecting a Rodeo – if you know what I mean

3

Seven swole studs braved the last cool bootcamp that always starts before anyone else, even if you are late. After some attempted Q disparaging that was handled quite well with appropriate levity, we got to work.

Mosey to COP all IC, all 4 count; 20x SSH, 10x DQ, 10x IW, 10x Merkin, 10x HRM, 10x Sky Reach Merkin,  10x HRM + Sky Reach Merkin, 10x ww2, 51 LBC, 10x Hello Dolly, 10x Rosalita, 5x Bohemian Rhapsody, 10x Freddie Mercury, 20x Arm Circle, 20x reverso, Hands up, Hands down, 10x seal claps, 10x overhead claps, 10x arm circle, 10x APD, 10x Tuscaloosa Trailer Park Twister. So out of shape YHC needed to run to catch breath.

5:20 Handshake arrives. First senior moment? No worries mate, there will be more.

Mosey to the south ridge rabbit warren. Longest 11s ever: Bro code. Squats and WW2; movement accomplished by alternating bearcrawl, Lunge, Bernies. Some Polar bears to spice it up but not over flavor. Broad jump burpee for last set until called. Mosey BTTF.

Handshake took us out. Prayers for LabRat and Try Hard.

Coffeeteria afterward.

NMS – Great to see the First Watch crew. Building up to YHC five year anniversary 4/22 and Earth Day. Sometimes not sure who really goes back and reads BB so YHCs normal method is to catch enough comments that PAX throughout the region build interest. “Guess you had to be there” is likely still the case, but what are you missing?  Are we really missing the toothbrush story?  YHC does not know.

Oversharing of the week goes the PAX member who will remain anonymous at this point. In brief, expected guests arrived 30 minutes early but were made to wait in the lobby until the previously scheduled meeting concluded discussion, the minutes reviewed, the action items assigned with names and dates, and handshakes finished. In other words, no Rodeo required. Yes Rodeo is a thing.  YHC’s fraternity has a story about a similar event where the more confined space of a dorm room should have led to a proper rodeo, but Dr. Zog, our hero, simply waved howdy to the unexpected guest and the bronc continued to provide an epic ride. That’s how we got to know Tex and what is better is that she was cool with that appellation.

For a gold mine of words that could mean something else in the context in which they are used (at this point, Upchuck observes that optimal diction is euphemism) please see Rodeo Terms: Cowboys, Events & More (carodeo.com) – if you know what I mean.

  1. Thanks for leading, Gomer! That was a tough one, especially COP. I don’t think I have ever been out of breath after a COP before. Congrats on the 5 year anniversary week! Thankful that Handshake showed up late just so he could overshare. SYITG!
