INTRO:

You know how mascots from the football teams do all those Merkins every time they score??? Sometimes teams score a whole lotta points and they end up doing a TON of Merkins. That’s awesome. Well, the PAX of the Kodiak on this fateful morning were gifted with 38 Points scored by the Creekview Grizzlies Football Team. You know, the guys that share our parking lot at Oh 530 and sometimes we let them use our field for their own version of a beatdown. It was the first ever playoff victory for Creekview, and continued their undefeated season, the first in Cherokee County in over 40 years. But in F3 style, we didn’t just do 38 Merkins. Oh no. We did 38 of every exercise. And we did them with…  wait for it…  SAND BABIES!

WARM-O-RAMA:

It’s 0530 Grab your Baby!

Mosey over to YHC’s favorite track in front of the school.

• 20x SSH IC
• 15x Weed Pickers IC
• 15x Imperial Walkers IC
• Sun Gods OYO

This will be the last time for a long time that you work without your baby. Time to pick em up and get to work!

THE THANG:

38 Special

8 Stations strategically placed equidistantly around the long, skinny “track” parking lot in front of the school. Each station had a notecard with the Exercise to perform, followed by the Method to move said Sand Baby to the next Station.

• Station 1: 38 Sand Baby Burpees, then Shoulder Carry to next station
• Station 2: 38 Overhead Presses, then Zamperini (Overhead Carry) to next station
• Station 3: 38 Curls, then Hold the Curl to the next station
• Station 4: 38 Overhead Tricep Extensions, then Lunges to next station
• Station 5: 38 Moving Merkins, then Shoulder Carry to next station
• Station 6: 38 Upright Rows, then Zamperini (Overhead Carry) to next station
• Station 7: 38 Bent Rows, then Hold the Curl to the next station
• Station 8: 38 Bench Dips with Baby in your lap, then Lunge back to the start

We finished with a lap (~500 Meters) around the track, and the PAX performed some Mary while waiting for the 6.

Redeposited the sand babies and wrapped up with 3 MoM: Freddy Mercuries led by YHC, Merkins led by Preacher (AWESOME CADENCE!) and Flutter Kicks led by Ole Blue. These guys are ready to Q if they haven’t already!

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Mumble chatter was pretty low today. And the PAX scattered like seeds in the wind after the COT. YHC must have done something to upset them. I don’t think anyone could feel their arms anymore, I know I couldn’t. I swear – I had “Bring Sally Up” queued up on the Bluetooth Speaker for the last few minutes. But confession, I just. Couldn’t. Do it.
