Plank Incline merkins Asskickers Normal squats Overhead press
Mary at Startex.
MOLESKINE: Had a great crew of DR/WL out at Titan representing Chicago, Dallas, California, and Franklin TN. A lot of pressure on Q to make sure folks get in a good workout. Intentionally stayed in front of Parthenon so our guests could experience a pretty cool AO view.

With a Little Luck . . .

Date: 2026-03-16 AO: westeros Q: Vector PAX: Pep, CubCadet, Chunks, Squatter, Spinal Tap, SalPal, DintyMoore, Papa Bear, Tim the Toolman FNGs: None COUNT: 10 YHC thought that today’s highly anticipated version of Weightsteros should celebrate tomorrow’s holiday, St. Patty’s Day :four_leaf_clover: with a theme about luck.
CONDITIONS: Cool but perfect.
WARMUP: SSH, LBAC, Overhead presses, Seal Claps, Moroccan Night Clubs, RLBACs, Squats, WMH and Good Mornings
THE THANG: #1 Lucky :four_leaf_clover:: PAX each draws a card. Lucky PAX has highest card and gets to wear the shamrock necklace and pick an exercise for the PAX to do while they run across the lot and back x 3.
#2 Unlucky :x: :four_leaf_clover:: Now the PAX with the lowest card goes, but has to do 5 burpees with each exercise lap
#3 Lucky #7 :four_leaf_clover: :seven:: Spinal Tap’s turn to go — same principle as #1
#4 L-U-C-K: 17 reps of Lunges Ultimate/Utilitarian/Ugh Burpees Crunches of the Lil’ Baby Variety Killer Squats
Mary to time.
MOLESKINE: In life, you’ll encounter good and bad luck — be prepared with the skills to handle both as leaders and men.
ANNOUNCEMENTS/COT: – Holy Smokers, Grow School, Etc. – check the Slack – Kudos to The Merchant for a successful murder mystery night that may have involved Tim the Toolman turning into a demon?? – Thanks to some lippy jib-jab from DintyMoore and Chunks, the Q made the PAX run a little sprint. Gotta get your movement tracker started I guess . . . – SalPal was the dreaded Lucky HIM as he picked blockees more than once. He’s practically on vacation anyway. – Prayers for Title Max’s daughter, those traveling, our Muslim community members, and our leaders – Pep was most excited about Tom Petty’s entry on the playlist, singing aloud and recalling its post-apocalyptic music video. – 110% coffeeteria as Title Max joined us at Dose for CubCadet’s favorite $17 coffee.
PLAYLIST: Get Lucky – Daft Punk Lucky Star – Madonna Good Luck Babe – Chappell Roan I Feel Lucky – Mary Chapin Carpenter Some Guys Have All the Luck – Rod Stewart You Got Lucky – Tom Petty With a Little Luck – Wings A Stroke of Luck – Garbage My Lucky Day – Bruce (for Papa Bear) Lucky – Britney Spears

For the theme, after some careful, thoughtful feedback (?criticism) from Michelin Man about branching out my playlists to, I don’t know< decades other than the 1980s, I opted to go with a playlist so new, you're afraid to park it in a downtown Nashville parking garage for fear of that first door dent. Despite what Natural Ice might say . . .
CONDITIONS: Cool (like the playlist)
WARMUP: For the 9th year in a row, SSH x my new age. (Some looks on the PAX faces of "Damn, why's he gotta be so old." LBAC x 11 (i.e. 5+6), Overhead Presses x 11, Seal Claps (complete with the porcelain bark c/o Title Max) x 11, RLBAC x 11, WMH and GM OHO, and Imperial Walkers x 11
THE THANG: After a side mosey to pay our respects to the now demolished McCabe playground (RIP pull up bars), back to the hill for
#1 5+6s (aka 11s) — squats at bottom; merkins at top
Then mosey to upper lot for #2 6 stations – do 56 reps of exercises (Mountain Climbers, Iron Mikes, BB sit-ups, Star Jumps, Shoulder Taps, and as a party gift, an exercise of your choice). Then 5 burpees just 'cause.
Mosey to startex for #3 DIDs (28 dips, 14 incline merkins, 14 decline merkins) x 2
Mary with Flutter Kicks, Hello Dollys, Leg Raises, and ending with 56 LBCs
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Murder Mystery Party tomorrow – Holy Smokers — check Slack
COT: – Prayers for Title Max’s little girl, my kids traveling abroad, and all of the PAX coming and going for Spring Break – Thankful for all of the PAX for making me better each time I am out.
