AO: bomber
Q: Vector
PAX: Chunks, CubCadet, DintyMoore, Firefox, Papa Bear, Pep, Sherlock, Strutter, Tim the Toolman
FNGs: None
COUNT: 10
To celebrate a slightly belated 8th Anniversary for YHC (I was EH’d by Ebola in Nov 2017 and had a hambone Q’d beatdown to introduce me to this non-cult cult), I decided to celebrate the musical tradition of sampling by sampling from my first Q. Vector from 8 years ago didn’t give me much to work with, but, like most sampled tunes, the end result is often worse than the original . . .

CONDITIONS: Slightly chilly but warm in our hearts

PLAYLIST: Legendary songs that sampled other works along with the originals

U Can’t Touch This – MC Hammer (which samples . . .)
Super Freak – Rick James
Ice Ice Baby – Vanilla Ice (which samples . . . )
Under Pressure – Queen and David Bowie
S.O.S. – Rhianna (which samples . . .)
Tainted Love – Soft Cell
Don’t Stop the Music – Rhianna (which samples . . . )
Wanna be Starting Somethin’ – Michael Jackson
Anxiety – Doechii (which samples . . . )
Somebody That I Used to Know – Gotye

WARMUP:
Taken from my first Q in March 2018:
GM x 12, WMH x 12, IW x 12, Squats x 12, LBAC x 12, RLBAC x 12

THE THANG:
The Original Vector Q Workout:
[Side note – 1) not sure how you do “reps” of bear crawls, 2) bear crawls AND burpeees? Jeez 2018 me, not cool.]
1) Bear crawl x 12
2) Dips on benches x 12
3) Pull-ups x 12
4) Burpees x 12

The Sample: Taking the original and making it better? worse? indifferent?
DORA with partner
Burpees x 100
Pull-ups x 200
Dips x 300
Run around Rec Center with a Bear Crawl on the last leg

Mary:
Did the 2018 Mary of Elbows to Knees L and R side x 12 each and followed by sampling to make better with “real” bicycles x 12 each side.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Grow School 12/6 (tomorrow)
2. Holiday Party Hair Band house 12/12 6p
3. Night Moves/After Hours 12/18

COT:
Words of gratitude, praises, prayers. Many prayers and gratitude for Pep’s new computer (like there was A LOT of discussion about this). Appreciated the arrival of HRS Chunks-N-Stuff and that they did not leave once they heard 200 pull-ups and 100 burpees on the docket! Thankful for all the HIM who came out and continue to push me to be harder, better, faster, stronger (see the Kanye sample I threw in there?). SYITG, Vec

FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: NOT FOR THE WEAK. :cold_face:

WARMUP: Arm Circles. Imperial Walkers, SSH, Right over left, Left over right, Willie Mays Hayes

THE THANG:

Don’t know what Pre-Workout Gym Bro Vector took, but he was ready to take on Love Circle.

CubCadet was skeptical and waiting for a surprise Co-Q to pop out of a bush.

Without furth ado, time to attack Love Circle!

Off we go with and Indian Run. Stopped at the bridge for some Boo Boo Bearcrawls. Continued the run to the stop sign for some Merkins. Then we took the Mrs. Toolman route straight up the hill.

Reached the summit for a moment of reflection. Asked the PAX to think about all the opportunities they’ve been blessed with in this city and how they can pass those along to others in the city we all love.

What goes us must come down. Also we completed the circle at love circle. Stopped at the stop sign again for some merkins. Continued our run stopped at the bridge for a nice lunge walk across the bridge. Continued the run to the hill near the portajohns. Squats and Merkins at the top and bottom. 3 Rounds.

95% of men over the age of 35 will never sprint again. Not today Satan. Sprint back to startex.

Finished with some ab work and broga.

MOLESKINE:

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Check Slack

COT: Prayers for jobs and families

Found out after the work out that was Papa Bear’s first time summiting Love Circle. :heart::large_green_circle:

Always an honor to lead at Westeros.
