Waking up this morning I was looking forward to leading a new AO for a worthwhile beatdown. My M was fighting the fartsack so I brought her along to push herself on the track at Croatan while I brought the heat to the men in the field. 8 minute warning given, pax continued to roll in until the 1 minute warning was given and the F3 statement and mission were given. Trying to carry on the outstanding ability of the Q’s, I had the pleasure to listen to this past two weeks, I stumbled at the beginning of the statement but brought it home at the end.
Let’s mosey. One lap around the parking lot and some mumblechatter on the warmarama site looking familiar.
WARMARAMA
Right over Left – 10 count Left over Right – 10 count pax assuming there was some running going to happen

Short mosey to the center of the parking lot for
THE THANG:
Ring of Fire was called by YHC. Pax plank in a tight circle, first pax gets up runs around the outside of circle returns to plank and does 5 Merkins. Repeat until all pax have done their run and Merkins.
Lets a mosey to the field for Blackjacks. Kudos to Laettner for showing me Blackjacks are a great beatdown on each and every one of us.
21 Count 1 Merkin to 20 LBC’S countdown and up to 20 Merkins to 1 LBC
Laettner finished first and YHC called OMAHA for the rest of the pax. YHC had more in mind to push the pax.
So on your six right into Captain Thors – 1 WWI to 4 American Hammers count up to 5 WWI and 20 American Hammers
I just love the sweat pouring off of the pax already.
Mosey on over to the parking lot and grab a curb. Here’s where the curb appeal starts.
Curb Alperts were called by the Q with a demonstration given. Just a bit of mumblechatter(more Merkins)
Plank position, walk hands down then up in cadence.(off curb, on curb) 10 count IC
The pax so loved it YHC called Sideways Curb Alperts- similar to regular just sideways(you learn alot about your own coordination trying new exercises) 10 count IC
One trip around the parking lot to cleanse the palette and back to the field for some more fun.
YHC showed up early and put out 4 cones for Escalators.
Escalators -First cone 10 Merkins ,Second cone 10 Merkins 20 LBC’S , Third cone 10 Merkins 20 LBC’s 30 Squats,Fourth

As the pax finished YHC brought them in a circle and demonstrated the Global Warming. Al Gore shuffle first time left then Q called 5 Burpees for Laettner going backwards inside the circle. Recover Al Gore shuffle right with 20 LBC’s (yes YHC wants a washboard for his 50th). Al Gore shuffle one more time left 20 Squats.
Off to the parking lot for some needed MARY.
30 Dying cockroaches (told you YHC wants to be cut by 50)
10 Dr. W’s (Love how those abs are screaming now)
20 Boss Tweeds to round out the abs nicely.
Announcements were given. Check slack for details of each workout.
Prayer requests. YHC has been humbled with the courage shown by Snookie.(his M is starting cancer treatments today)
Definite prayers all week have been given to him and his family. Duckbutters continued rehab. Prayers for Buttoncaps family laying his grandmother to rest today. Prayers given to Purple Rain for his health appointment.
With these humbling thoughts on our minds Laettner gave an uplifting and resounding prayer. He asked the Lord to keep us humbled in our lives, thanking the Lord for our freedom in this great country, especially to gather in the gloom and push each other in his watchful eye. Challenging us all to be bold as the Lord is bold.
YHC has enjoyed Q’ing for this great group of men. I hope I challenged you enough to let me do it again.
Blart out.
