16 PAX posted at #TheHogg for an up-and-down and top-to-bottom low-impact beat down (for the high impact man!). Hmmm, sounds like a tagline for a new cologne, eau de burpees.
Disclaimer
YHC is not a professional instructor. F3 workouts are voluntarily and free of charge. Modify as needed. #YouAgainstYou. Push yourself but don’t hurt yourself. Notify the Q of any serious medical conditions. Aye!
Conditions
Glorious! 67 degrees, muggy.
Warm Up
Mosey to St Theresa’s back lot. Along the way high knees, butt kickers, side shuffle (L/R), carioke (L/R), back peddle.
Circle of Pain / The Thang
Putting the P back in the COP. All told, 19 exercises (left and right as two) with burpees after each one. We started and finished with Side Straddle Hops (x71 IC + x29 IC), getting to 100 IC. Burpee sequence: 9 down to 1, and then 1 up to 10. That’s 100 burpees total.
- In between the SSHs, x20 IC: Lightbulbs, Ray Lewis, LBACs, Moroccan Nightclub, Iron Cross Merkins, Low Flutter, Dolly, High Flutter, Rosalita, Freddy Mercury, LBCs, Half Bridges, side leg raises (L/R), Speed Lunge (L/R), and Prisoner’s Squat (start with the top body parts and worked our way down)
Q-mods on Iron Cross Merkins (x11 IC) and Speed Lunges (x10 IC).
Shout out to Hammer Time for smiling all the way through 71 IC SSHs. You get a cute Easter Bunny sticker for your lunchbox. Good work to all the PAX, and thanks for hanging in there and pushing through. We had a good mix of midwife noises and mumble chatter this morning, of course with Buble’s dulcet tones rising above the fracas.
Animal Walk-o-rama OYO along the side of St. Teresa’s (most of the way until the Q gave out), and then mosey back to the Shovel Flags.

YHC’s legs got smoked at Hammer Time’s VQ, and were feeling Duggar’s Wednesday beat down. Pre-workout chatter indicated that YHC was not alone. So we mixed up the usual workout format with a hearty COP. Hope you enjoyed the “predictability and unpredictability”.
Note to future Qs: (a) Brittany is great at counting exercises, but don’t ask him for a 10-count if you need to catch your breath – YHC should know this by now; and, (b) this would be a great workout on Saturday, when there would be time to get in BTTW and Pull-Ups to complete the full body beat down. #justsayin’
Great effort from the Respect and Respect Respect PAX – you inspired me to keep pushing all the way through. 100 burpees are no joke and YHC needed the inspiration to keep going. At about 5 burpees on the way back up I contemplated a Q-modification.
Beta, no need to bring a dictionary next workout:
Seminal [sem–uh-nl]
Adjective
