Introduction

As of Saturday, the Q sheet still showed an opening for Tuesday’s Citadel slot. YHC decided to take on the challenge and see if the Nala (sub site Q) could manage taking pictures of PAX doing things other than running. Now what to do for a beatdown…

Appletini challenged all to read House Arrest’s BB from Saturday as it was well written. House Arrest talked about working on those things you are not good at. Automatically YHC remembered the early morning beatdown that Bozo laid down at the Early OP. Running-Good, Merkins-Good, Backwards Mosey-Great, Bear Crawls/Crab Walks-Cussing out Bozo. That’s it, there is the building blocks to the beatdown. More to follow.

Monday-Preblast gave the disclaimer. We will be doing all that YHC hates and running shoes and coupons are required. All were warned and the HCs started to drop, except for Onions SC which is pretty much a HC with the opportunity to back out.

Tuesday-woke up checked Slack where a few additional HCs dropped. Figured a refresher of the 5 core principles were in order with newer PAX and Nantan planning on attending. Multitasked the refresher while completing my paperwork in my office and we were set to roll.

Arrived at the AO 10 minutes early. Pork Rinds and Impossible Burger were ending the world’s problems while starting to loosen up. There were no screeching tires as all PAX showed up with enough time to get their coupons to the circle by 5:15.

Disclaimer was stated…

Warm-O-Rama

Began the Warm O Rama with 20 Side Straddle Hops in Cadence. PAX were sending signals they were ready to get moving. Scrapped were arm circles, motivators, Abe Vigodas and substituted was a mosey. YHC threw in some high knees, butt kickers, karaokes. Mosey was between the lot with the flags to the library lot circling back and we headed to the outfield of the softball field. PAX were instructed to circle up but keep their feet moving…

 

The Thang

Thumb drive let out a sigh and a smile as he love-hates what is in store next. PAX were put through a series of up/downs. YHC timed the Down calls for every time Pork Rinds tried to mumble chat there were a lot of downs called. We then completed some on me Merkins and Jump Squats and it was time to explore the rest of the AO.

PAX grabbed their coupons from the lot, and we began to mosey. Every time YHC yelled “six” the two leaders in our mosey peeled off and moseyed to the 6. They were instructed to maintain their pace not the 6’s. This meant some PAX peeled off more than others. Serena’s perverted mind thought YHC was yelling something else. That’s exactly why he needs to figure out how to pay for 4 colleges (with a chance for more) instead of YHC’s 2.

Made our way to volleyball courts on the North side of the building. Brought back a hated exercise Lewinsky introduced YHC to on his FNG date. PAX held coupons overhead and we proceeded to do an overhead press x3 Ring of Fire…yep still hate it. Coupons were dropped and PAX lined up on the East side of the sand in two lines. The nets separated the two lines as the PAX raced their brotha to the west side of the sand. They peeled off and mosey’d back to the start to repeat this nonsense 4 more times.

My 18 gluttons for punishment need to thank Wet wipe and Baby Hands for the ridiculessness that we completed next. Wet Wipe introduced me to the Coupon Swing during Virtual Covid beatdowns and Baby Hands showed that Bear Crawls and Crab Walks were meant not just for asphalt/grass. PAX were paired up where PAX 1 completed coupon swings while PAX to bear crawled to the volleyball net flipped to a crab walk to the edge of the court and then crawled bear back to the net and crab walked back to the start. PAX did 1 rotation and we then mosey’d leaving our coupons at the courts.

We proceeded to the bridge over EOLA with only 1 thing we possibly could do. Our new PAX were introduced to Cousin Eddie and Rusty’s favorite MONKEY HUMPERS!. Nothing says good morning Aurora like 19 Butts flapping up and down. We continued our mosey to the open field east of EOLA. We did burpees for the six and finished with 20 Big Boy situps. Quick check of the watch and noticed it was time to start heading back.

We started to mosey back to the bridge and instituted our “6” run only this time without coupons. At the bridge we said Good Morning to more Aurorans with 25 In Cadence Monkey Humpers and continued our “6” mosey or so YHC thought…

Pork Rinds and Niners thought it was a good idea to disobey the 6 order and continue their mumble chat about Will and Jada Pinkett Smith’s marriage drama. YHC hated to do it, but due to the insubordination all PAX completed 10 Blockees when we arrived at the coupons as punishment. We then grabbed our coupons and “6” mosey’d back to the flags.

Couple of minutes were left for one last thang. We went to the softball field and lined up for a Superhero run. Think Red light, Green Light from when you were a kid.

Superman-Burpee

Flash- Sprint

Hulk-Jump Squat

Spiderman-Alligator Merkin

RC started to critique the marriage of DC and Marvel characters, which meant it was time to start. Hulk first, Superman next, Spiderman…Nala yells 5:53…Flash to the Finish…………..

For Mary we started with LBCs in cadence. Moans began at 20, but YHC had 30 on my mind so that is where we finished. Quick transition to Dying cockroach for 10 in cadence then we need to resurrect that cockroach for 15 in cadence. YHC drank too much this weekend so we went for 10ish flutter kicks. YHC bleeds Red, White and Blue but American Hammers are on the hated list, so we did 10 in cadence normal speed then we did 10 in Nala’s crazy slow speed and just because we did 5 in broken record speed. Broken record=each count you repeat the number and the PAX do a ½ American Hammer. Want to learn more ask YHC or any of these 18 badasses at their next Q.

Circle of Trust

We continued our prayers for Mr. Miyagi.

Remember what brought you to F3 and especially what keeps you coming out. For those mornings that it seems difficult remember your why and get here. My why is my M and 2.0s. I know striving to maintain a healthy lifestyle and becoming a better husband/father will pay dividends. One of my 2.0s celebrated his birthday yesterday. He has a no quit attitude that I have been trying to copy in the gloom. So I leave you with a little homework. When you get home kiss your M and 2.0s. If you don’t have a M or Girlfriend get on Tinder and find someone to kiss.

Naked Man Moleskin

Aladdin and Boxcutter brought their respective beast modes but not any FNGs to the Citadel.

CVS-Vegas had the odds of a follow up Fartsack at +372. However, CVS, beat those to make his second post and didn’t give up.

Harley and Niners-Great to see the progress these two have shown since their respective FNG dates.

Nala was able to keep up and shoot pictures that were not running. However, he tried to give Onesie who would have loved to be here Onions post. Don’t worry Nala I got your 6 and updated the tracker for you.

Onions is going for a 6 maybe a 7 pack this week as he is currently batting 100% in Post. Can’t wait to see where you SC to wrap up the week.

Pork Rinds and Roach Coach were there to help remind everyone to keep on pushing.

Powderpuff-Some modify due to injury concerns, others to catch a quick breath. Not Powderpuff he does it for his Jeep. Bear crawls and Crab walks in the sand do not mix with his 4 wheel baby.

Serena and Sosa met YHC at the end with a punch and “I hated that” which made YHC know my job was done.

Sweeney Todd’s dropping weight as fast as Eminem’s dropping rhymes.

Thomas the Tank Engine was calm today. I counted only $.75 owed to the cuss jar. Awesome job brotha!

The Wedding Planner, One Bar and Impossible Burger just started with us, but all looked to be seasoned pros.

All in all, it was a great day. If you are reading this and didn’t post today, you missed out. You’ll never be able to rewind and make today up. Good news there are more beatdowns tomorrow so make sure you HC.

Tonka…over and out!
