Single count? Double count? – 2022-06-09

AO: The Rig
QiC: Smalls
Pax Count: 9
Pax List: Buttercup, Gates, Gofor, Gronkins, Martina, Smalls, Sparky, Swag, Vertigo
FNG Count: 1
Downrange:

I’m usually a harsh taskmaster, but the expected FNG showed up right at 5:45, so I begrudgingly delayed 2 minutes so he could hear my marvelously performed disclaimer.

Warm up:

No SSH. None at all. Gronkins gasped and protested much.

Instead, the pax did some Hillbillies, Standing Lunge, Weedpickers, Imperial Walkers, arm circles, and some OYO stretching (I think Gronkins did his own set of SSH here in protest).

We left the Rig on a slowsy over to the track.

The Thang:

Upon circumnavigating our way to the track, we did a lap at 60-70% of a sprint to get blood flowing and heart rate up. Then, I unleashed my dastardly plan which included ambiguous descriptions of how to count so that there was maximum confusion.

  • 10 – Burpees
  • 20 – Bonnie Blairs (single count? count each leg?)
  • 30 – Big Boi Sit Ups 
  • 40 – Side Lunges (single count? count each leg?)
  • 50 – X factors (double count? count only one leg?)
  • run a lap

plank for the six, then rinse and repeat. Standing lunge back to meet up with the six, then run back to the Rig.

Partner up to alternate between hang holds and Al Gore, switch at will.

Finish up with 1 minute Superman hold

CoT:

Welcome Sparky, a young whipper-snapper whose fiancĂ©’s dad is Gates’ BFF.

Prayers for Vertigo, Buttercup’s sister-in-law, and I have a creeping suspicion there was something else.

Naked Man Moleskin:

I’m a blue bubble now.
