Eccentric Pain

AO: atlantis
Q: Focker
PAX: SalPal, Toothless, porcelain
FNGs: None
COUNT: 4
CONDITIONS: Chicago Style

WARMUP: Various stretches and letting the PAX have the illusion of choice for our playlist between yacht rock and oldies.

THE THANG: concentration on eccentric movement control with little regard to rep number.
PAX performed exercises while one PAX served as the timer with a 30lb ruck. Switch exercises when all have traveled
Burpees—>suitcase carry
Squats—>rifle carry
Dive bomber merkins—>lunge
Monkey humpers—>longer ruck shuffle

Core circuit
Slowwww heel drops
Slowwww WW1
Side planks, low plank

Merkin goal means burpee pumpers until time
1 merkin burpee, 2 merkin burpees, 3 merkins, you get the picture

MOLESKINE: this morning I was driving to Atlantis and the only plan I had was the word “eccentric”. We often focus on high reps and fast workouts, but concentrating on controlling the eccentric portion of an exercise (when your muscles are extended) allows for better hypertrophy, strength, and neuromuscular connection. It also teaches patience and mindful movements.
Plus it just really sucks and makes you way more sore. 40 merkins felt like 140.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: merkin madness continues and AOQ grow school! Hopeful plankpril comes back ( Grape).

COT: prayers for spouses, roles as fathers, Toothless mother in law and treatment.

Super grateful for you men this morning. In a world that gets fixated on numbers equaling success, doing a slow workout with a small group of guys meant a lot this AM.

F3unky

AO: bomber
Q: Vector
PAX: hambone, porcelain, greyalbum, CubCadet, Tim the Toolman, Pep, t-cell, Sherlock, Chunks, Wolfpack, Papa Bear, Crawlspace, @CreamCheese, @Avalanche, @Topps, Waterboy
FNGs: 1 Waterboy
COUNT: 17
Continuing in the tradition of lessons in music history (previous classes included Disco, New Wave Post Punk, Old School Country, and @CubCadet ‘s favorite, Southern California Death Metal), YHC felt a Bomber Friday was the perfect time to teach a lesson on funk music. The playlist consisted of some of the greatest funk songs, but funky also means stinky. So, it’s time to break a sweat.

CONDITIONS: Perfectly funky

PLAYLIST:
Play That Funky Music – White Cherry
Get Down On It – Kool & the Gang
Funky town – Lipps Inc.
Low Rider – War
Shining Star – EWF
She’s a Bad Mama Jama – Carl Carlton
Flash Light – Parliament
Super Freak – Rick James (dammit)
Got to Give it Up – Marvin Gaye
Word Up – Cameo
Jungle Boogie – Kool & the Gang

WARMUP:
Mosey around baseball field to rec center and circle up.

THE THANG:

#1: Get Down On It: Side Straddle Hops while this funk classic plays. Every time the words “get down” are uttered, PAX do a jump squat. Reminder as we start that it’s a 5 minute song.

#2: Upper Body: 100 reps of incline merkins, dips, and underdogs. Run around rec center after each exercise.

#3: Legs: 100 reps (each leg = 1/2) of squats, iron mikes, and mountain climbers. Run around rec center after each exercise.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– Welcome FNG Waterboy, a UF Gator
– Prayers for Yuri and family
– 9 days left for the leanpaxers

Thanks as always for letting me lead you. The mumblechatter dropped off, so I’m hoping folks got funky while we got funky. Appreciate all of you for pushing me.
SYITG,

The Natty Ice Titan Special

AO: titan
Q: Natural Ice
PAX: Good Morning America, Grape, Supernova, Goose, greyalbum, Chunks, Detective Pikachu, Black Lung, Crawlspace, porcelain, Sherlock, DintyMoore, Salpal, Red Skull, bluemule, Natural Ice
FNGs: None
COUNT: 16
CONDITIONS: A perfect 25F

WARMUP: SSH and Stretching

THE THANG:

Thing 1: Running Grapevine Burpee Apocalypse
A combination of @grape ‘s caboose is loose run while carrying the speaker, and @bluemule ‘s traveling burpee apocalypse. Pax ran exactly 1 mile and performed 55 burpees.

Thing 2: Classic Hilly Titan 11’s Now with 4 Bonus Bearcrawls

Pax took advantage of the fantastic hill with 11’s consisting of LT Dans at the Base and WW1s at the top. With one caveat, Pax had to bearcrawl up the hill 4 of the 10 times of their choosing.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: F3 Hendersonville is Rising! YHC was given a funny cowboy hat. Leanpax sugar/alcohol detox is in full effect!

This mornings playlist was a group effort of alternative rock starting with @chunk ‘s request for higher by Creed. I shamelessly added in a Green River Ordinance radio hit at the end.

Thank you all for the opportunity to lead!
