Back Blast – The Ruiner 11/23. Vincent Q

If you read the pre-blast, you’ll know I was ready for a  rainy Saturday morning.  When I arrived at the O the sky was gray but no rain.  PAX that made it out to the Gloom – Drysdale, Meatball, Wham!, Violet, Tron and Vincent (Q). As soon as I got out of the car and planted the flag it started to sprinkle.  “Here it comes” I thought.  But then it quickly stopped raining and we started the workout with a mosey around to the tennis courts which were for the most part dry.  Taking advantage of the situation, I audibled and worked some Mary in right after COP so we could get it in before the rain started.  Below is what the hour looked like:

COP –

SSH

Copperhead squat

Grass grabbers

Single leg dead lifts

Imperial squat walkers

Toe taps

Mary –

Freddy Mercury

Pretzel Crunch each side

Flutter Kicks

Run a Lap

Burpee Time Bomb – think of a merkin time bomb from plank but it was burpees and Al Gore.  The first person started burpees counting to 3 out loud and finishing at 10 before going back to Al Gore to wait his for his next turn.  We made it from 10 down to 1.

Run a Lap

Thabata x 2  – Run a lap between

Dead lifts

Squats

Coupon Swings

Thrusters

Curls

Man Makers

Lap

Jump – Van Halen’s “Jump” holding Al Gore and doing a jump squat every time the song says Jump.

We finished with COT and gave thanks for all of the blessings we have.  As I was rolling up the flag to head to coffeeteria it started raining again, this time a steady drizzle and it did not stop.  We were blessed with a dry Post and I silently thanked the Sky Q as I drove away from the “O”.
