Deck of Horrors!!!! Ft. Cotton Eye Joe =?utf-8?q??= 🃏🪕

AO: cruelhall
Q: Toothless
PAX: Tinkertoy, Smokehouse, Focker, Esposa, Donkey Hammer, Kraut, Matador, EZ-Go, Harry Caray, Michael Freiburg
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: Clear and crisp, but mild feeling for the temp.

WARMUP:
– Side straddle hops x 31
– Werewolfs (aka Downward Dog into Cobra and back) x 10
– Scorpions x 10
– Zombie walk out & back

THE THANG:

First, obligatory Burpee Thriller, listen to Thriller and do a burpee every time you hear the signature “thriller” in the chorus or something scary in the lyrics

Deck of Horrors!!! :wolf: :spades: :diamonds: :clubs: :heart: :male_vampire:

To the pavilion, circle up and get ready to pull cards.
– Add 10 to digits (2-10)
– Royals trigger a flat 10 reps of a harder exercise
– Aces have their own deviltry

Spades :spades:
– Digits = Squats
– Royals = Squat Jumps
– Ace = Broad Jump around the square
Clubs :clubs:
– Digits = LBC’s
– Royals = V-Ups
– Ace = 200 American Hammers (single count)
Hearts :heart:
– Digits = High Knees
– Royals = Hopping Hillbillies
– Ace = Cotton Eye Joe (High Knees with words, Hillbillies with instrumentals)
Diamonds :diamonds:
– Digits = Carolina Dry Docks
– Royals = Diamond Merkins
– Ace = Bear Crawl around the square

Back to post at 5 mins out for Howler Monkeys, I.e. monkey humper ring of fire

MOLESKINE:

Instructions were for the next man pulling a card to do half the reps before getting up to pull the card so we keep it moving. That worked once we got the hang of it.

The Aces were obviously everyone’s favorite, and the mumblechatter peaked during Cotton Eye Joe as predicted. Fan favorite, sure to be repeated soon! Honestly I was pretty wiped by the time we got there but we made it through.

We completed all but 4 cards! That brings the total reps to very close to the following full counts:
– 144 x Squats
– 30 x Squat Jumps
– 144 x LBCs
– 30 x V-Ups
– 144 x High Knees
– 30 x Hopping Hillbillies
– 144 x Dry Docks
– 30 x Diamond Merkins

Not counting the Aces, that’s 700 reps of good work, more than the standard Dora, and the Aces were some good work too. Way to keep it moving men!

Coffeeteeria was a smashing success with a co-brew from Toothless and Esposa, with Esposa bringing gatorade and even Twisted Tea for the road…well not for the road but you get it.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– f3dads workout was this AM!
– Esposa on Q for Halloween, or for the daring, handsomizer will be aiming for the local in-workout record of 315 burpees

COT:
– Prayers for the family Focker was visiting with their newborn experiencing complications
– Prayers for Prayers for YHC (Toothless) for the move to Crieve Hall in December and the current home selling in the meantime

As always, it was an honor to lead, men! Thanks for having me out, and I’ll be seein’ ya!
