I had been out of town on vacation in California for the last two weeks. It had been a while since I had worked out and I felt it. To make matters worse, I had to partner up with Busshh & trying to keep up with him is just stupid, unless your name is Scuba Steve. I wanted to add a little California flare to the workout, so I threw in some hill work for my time in San Francisco and some coupon Tabata to get those muscle beach vibes flowing. What I hadn’t planned on was talking about jorts and giblets. Apparently, jorts are back “In”. Were any of you aware of this besides Bushhh? I assumed only out west because I have seen no one here wearing them, but I was informed that jorts are ok in Louisville too! Not that I will be wearing them any time soon or that any self-respecting person would wear them but it’s interesting to hear that they are ok again. There is one big issue I have with the latest edition of jorts, and that is, the one’s I saw, were rolled up so short your giblets would hang out of them. Now, it could be that I am just that well-endowed or I am just old and saggy but either way who wants to look at that? Well, I did run into a couple dudes in San Francisco that would, but besides them. Anyway, my first Q back after vacation didn’t go exactly as planned and neither did the conversation during the workout but I think we all got better.
Q: Backdraft
Pax: Gepetto, Pope, Larry Flint, Digiorno, Sump Pump, Zima, Deuce, Miyagi, Bushhhh, Nugget, PED, Meatball, Tureen, Fridge, Glen Ross
COP: Side Straddle Hops, Grass Grabbers, Runners Stretch, Downward Dog, Abe Vigoda’s, Shoulder Stretches, Michael Phelps.
Thang 1: Triple Nickel – The Pax moseyed to the top of the hill in front of the rectory and partnered up. Bushhh is the only dude without a partner…great, that leaves me. Run to the bottom, complete one round of five partner Merkins (5 per arm). Run back to the top to complete one round of five rep partner Big Boy Sit Ups. Rinse and Repeat 5 times which gives you the ol’ Triple Nickel. I couldn’t explain it this morning because I was tired and out of oxygen.
Thang 2: Tabata – The Pax moseyed to the coupon garden & circled up for some Tabata in the parking lot. 45 seconds on, 15 seconds off, 4 times through each round. First round: Coupon Curls, Second round: Coupon Squats, Third Round: Coupon Shoulder Press, Fourth Round: Merkins and Big Boy Sit Ups. We finished with a round of five Catalina Wine Makers.
Thang 3: Mary – I lied to the Pax and said we were finished but I had a little more time than I thought. We finished up with a little bit of Mary. Ten V Ups and 20 Saturday Nights.
COT: Announcements were made about the upcoming Ruck in July. Intentions went up; our boy Miyagi is spreading his wings and moving to Tampa for a new job. Prayers up for him and his new endeavor and for all the unspoken intentions out there. I missed you guys while I was gone, its good to be back with you, giblets and all. Backdraft out.
