• When: 09/14/2017
  • QIC: Weedwacker
  • The PAX: J.R. Ewing, H-Bomb, Neo, Chili Crab, Weezer, Brando (FNG), SHOTS FIRED!, Captain Insaneo (DR from L-Ville), IRS (FNG), Locksmith (R), Hammertime, The Wreck, Bullseye (R), Snowbird, Fresh Prince, Snoop Dogg, Haggis, Gemini, Backhoe, Leprechaun, Purple Rain, Shoog, Cruiser (RR), Inferno, Weedwacker (QIC)

25 PAX enjoyed some early-morning tachycardia during some high-intensity “lunacy” at #theHogg.

Lunacy (noun): Synonym for “Insanity”.

The “Insanity” workout concepts were clearly bit by YHC for this workout, and YHC is unapologetic about said biting.

Condition

74 degrees. Not horrendous.

Disclaimer

YHC is not a professional. This is a free, voluntary workout. Push yourself, don’t hurt yourself, and modify or stop as needed. If you have a medical condition tell a real doctor.

The Thang

Circle the flag, which takes seemingly forever with such a huge crowd of PAX.

  • Side Straddle Hops x 99 IC, resulting in a variety of non-standard reactions from the PAX (including but not limited to disbelief, contempt, anger, boredom, arousal, joy, somnolence, ecstasy, flu-like symptoms, paradoxical-hyperactivity, dejection, feelings of impending doom, bewilderment, nausea, giddiness, disequilibrium, and indifference. And also fatigued calf muscles).

For historical reference and sense of scope, #theYard crew performed 150 SSH IC on Tuesday as per Duggar, so 99 seems like a rather humble start to this morning’s workout.

  • Grassgrabber x 10 IC
  • FLASHDANCERS! X 10

Mosey across that place over to that one street and then down that street and around that weird obstacle-thing to that other parking lot next to the thing. (YHC’s first Q at #theHogg so the lingo doesn’t yet come naturally).

High Intensity Intervals Round 1.

  • Squat Jacks
  • Merkin Jacks
  • In-and-Out Abs (Animal Style)
  • Frog Leaps

Each exercise 45 seconds at a time, OYO, as many as you can do for a total of 3 min.

Rest 45 seconds.

Repeat x 2 for a total of 3 sets.

After the final 45 seconds of rest catch a little break with

  • Squat Punches x 20 IC

Mosey towards the seemingly-endless, variable-height step thing for Round 2:

  • Ski Down
  • Step-Ups
  • The Dip
  • Manmakers

Time would only permit 2 sets, which did not seem to disappoint most of the PAX.

Mosey back to the flag for:

  • Imperial Walker (High-Speed) x 50 IC (YHC’s new favorite exercise. WW hearts High-Speed Imperial Walkers).
  • Low-Flutter x 20 IC
  • Q-Punt to The Wreck (thanks dude, YHC couldn’t breathe) for American Hammer x 20 IC

This series of events resulted in the PAX appearing to be properly exercised.

CountORama and NameORama

25 PAX, including 2 FNGs. Welcome to Neo’s son Brando, and Cruiser’s multi-month low-and-slow EH — IRS!!! Also welcome and big thanks to Louisville’s own Captain Insaneo, who not only posted with our guys but also brought a TON of protective equipment to aid in the Harvey response. Much appreciated CI.

COT

Harvey and Irma still dominate our thoughts. Thanks to Cruiser for taking us out and reminding us to keep special TAPs for first-responders and electrical workers putting themselves at risk during the recovery.
