10 for a beach beatdown at Del Mar. Led by Grinder (63, still killed us). Forgot to pack shorts, so I ran in khakis.

Low mileage, beach sprints, coupon work, and a finish with burpees in the Pacific. A dude from St Louis and a student with Princeton roots in attendance, a truly cross-regional morning!

A must do if you’re ever near San Diego.

A bunch of PAX got together to get yelled at while working out while looking at Yogi’s hole in his pants. Some others decided to skip the fun, and run instead, including a surprise Ocho from @Doula. For those that ran, you missed an opportunity of a lifetime. Who knew that Yogi was also a runner, and we ran a little over a mile around Waverly and around to the parking deck in the medical building across from Whole Foods. It was there that Yogi broke out a deck of cards, and assigned Squats, Diamond Merkins, LBC’s and of course Burpees to each suit. Half of the deck was on one side of the parking garage, and the other half was on the other side. We then ran after each work out, which included a lot of motivation from Yogi to go faster, slow down, run sideways, try to be last, try to be first, etc. By the end of the workout, we were so confused, we didn’t know which way to go. We got back to the flag just in time for Yogi to yell at the runners to hurry up! MIAGD and make sure not to miss the next Yogi Q.

Confined to the shelter, I wanted to mix things up from my normal automated timed tempo countdown circuit. So today we partnered up for rep accountability. No late starts, early finishes.

5 different themed workouts. YHC called the move. Partners counted each rep together. Variety of both music and moves.

*Man Maker*
10 single arm swings – each side
10 squat thrusters – each side
10 clean and press – each side
10 overhead squats – each side
10 snatches – each side

*Upper Body Blast*
10 Shoulder Press – each side
10 Clean and rack – each side
10 Two-Handed Bicep Curls
10 One-Arm Rows – each side
10 Dirkins
10 Irkins
10 Upright Rows
10 Hot Potatoes

*Leg Burner*
10 Overhead Squats –each side
10 Step ups– each side
10 Overhead Lunges – each side
10 Side Lunges – each side
10 One-Handed Swings – each side
20 Bodyweight Squats

*Hot Potato*
10 Two-Handed Swings
10 Hot Potato
10 Swing to High Pulls – each side
10 Hot Potato
10 Snatches – each side
10 Hot Potato
20 Alternating Swings
10 Hot Potato
10 Cleans to rack – each side
10 Hot Potato
10 Clean & Press – each side
10 Hot Potato

*The Slingshot*
10 Slingshots
10 Goblet Squats
10 Slingshots
10 Two-Handed Presses
10 Slingshots
10 Squat Presses
10 Slingshots
10 Swing Catches
10 Swing, Catch, Presses
10 Swing, Catch, Squat, Presses

Playlist shuffle had everything from Boomers to Gen Z, with a heavy dose of ‘kids these days’ beats. YHC approved. Mainly toleration for others, but blame it on the lack of requests.

ATLiens – Outkast
Black Beatles – Rae Sremmurd (feat. GucciMane)
Fire – Jimi Hendrix
Raise Up – Petey Pablo
La Grange – ZZ Top
Walk – Pantera
Break on Through (To The Other Side) – Doors
Dead and Bloated – Stone Temple Pilots
The Box – Roddy Ricch
fukumean – Gunna
Om Nia Merican – Saul Williams
Organ Donor (Extended Overhaul) – DJ Shadow
Till I Collapse – Eminem

Great morning for the launch of Mojo Dojo Casa House! 3 Mall Walkers and 7 Campers found their way around Walnut Street Park. As @Chipper regaled us with tales from camp “march or die” we wandered around the park moving from pain train, to Dora, to lunge walk lane, to moving jack Webb’s. Ever the teacher, @termpaper offered commentary as we moved through the workout. The launch was celebrated with trunk coffee and doughnuts.

The Q sheet is now live and DiscoDuck told me if a Carpex guy has the Q, I don’t have to pay that weeks rent to use the AO.

Make it a great day!

We honored the dearly departed (to start another AO in Carpex) Yoga Mat on this brisk morning.

Standard warm-ups in the Animal Care lot and then we took off for Thang 1. Pearls on a string around the famous 1.78 mile EC fun run loop. Stopping at various intersections for a variation of monkey humpers, squats, merkins, and hillbillies.

Thang 2 was at the MD back lot where we found a non-small rock (except for Kirkland) and then, again to honor Yoga Mat, found our own parking spot with that rock and did some exercises. Ran a couple pickles. More rock exercises. More pickles in reverse. More rock exercises. Then back to the flag for Popcorn Mary…the highlight of which was Dumas’ melodic counting of LSFs.

We named and welcomed FNG ELEVATION who is a medical device engineer and leads worship at Vintage West. Standard announcements were glossed over…then more thoroughly explained for Elevation’s benefit.

Keep those six packs alive for free beer. MIAGD, gents!

COUNT: 19

19 gathered at the most problematic boot camp AO in SCary in 2024. Skinny Fat was visiting from Charleston. I had dropped a subtle clue on the workout but was confident that no pax knew the plan. We headed towards the infamous valley hood for some warmup in the Epic cul-de-sac. Typical SCary motions with an added Australian variant to throw the pax off and warm up those back muscles for the ME.

Mosey all the way back down to the playground with some confusion in the mumblechatter. Circle up and let’s Murph. 100 pull ups, 200 pushups, 300 squats Dora style with a partner. Round up the sheep for the pickle lap. Each pax should hit 4 laps.

With a few extra minutes we lunge walked/bear crawled the parking lot. Mosey back to the flag for Mary. Wait here comes the six? Sorry for the confusion and extra unintentional lap you ran Recycle!

Pax called Mary round robin. HGTV added a pax favorite burpee call that broke the mumblechatter up again. Have a nice day!

DDD last day to sign up for a shirt. Highland Games shirt order extended but get it done! 2nd F sponsored by Doula, get those 6 packs in! Finish out the MChallenge 3 days to go!

Prayers for TP’s daughter.

It’s always an honor to lead in this group of HIMs. I did not have a resolution to climb the stat sheet but I did want to push myself to Q more. If you have no Q’ed in a while or need to get that VQ out of the way, sign up! Make it a great day men!

High tempo was requested, high tempo was delivered. Pledge while Joe Smith gets his act together, and we are off. Quick and non-efficient warm ups for the group consisting of “stretch on your own”, in cadence of course. Dang these guys are hard to please.

Time to run 🏃. Partner loops in the cottages, 2nd place penalty was burpees. Then reverse.

Mosey to the high fluting renaissance of SCary, for quick game is catch me if u can. Pax were too busy rubbernecking and missed a turn. Penalty merkins were administered (leadership takes effort and intent).

Finally, we moseyed to the Garmin building for a near miss from a disgruntled Garmin employee. 2 of 7’s, with various counts of calisthenics.

Indian 🏃 back to flag, with 15 seconds to spare. 4.5m covered. Great job today fellas. Honor to lead. 💪
