AO: ao-eagles-nest
Q: Wreck-it Ralph , Dovetail
PAX: Squash (Donn Hines), Slice, Strat, Broccoli, Corn Stock (Garth), Sandtrap, Mac (Brandon), Wheelie, Copper Top, Blender, Watermelon Wings, Common Core, Waterboy, Buckshot FNGs: None
COUNT: 16
Warm-Up:

Wreck-it Ralph took the first half of the Q and got people warmed up. Anytime a man was in the park, Pax dropped whatever they were doing and went into Ralph’s brand new 7-count monkey humpers, which was fun.

Started with good mornings and then 7-1 Motivators

The Thang:
Using a Pax-count of 28, did Flutter Kicks, American Hammers, squats, and Merkins.
Then a water break, 7-1 Motivators, and pause for any requisite Monkey Humpers to encourage other men to join the group. Moved on to 29-count, then Motivators.
Finally, a 30-count and Motivators to round out the first half of the workout.

Dovetail took the second half, and Pax moseyed to the top of the small hill.
It was then announced that, rather than 11s (as Dovetail wasn’t turning 11), we would do “40s” with Double-merkin Burpees at the top of the hill and pullups at the bottom, 39 and 1, 38 and 2, etc.

(pregnant pause)

Nevermind, that would be stupid, hard, and not even remotely fun. Instead, we did “The Terminator” followed by Olympics, with tbe goal of getting 20 squared, or 400 reps, by the end of the workout:

20 SSH IC (total of 40 reps)
20 HIGH KNEES IC (80 reps)

The Terminator
The movie came out on Dovetail’s birthday in 1984.
Split Pax into 2 halves. One half starts doing clown ladders while the other half yells “I’ll be back” in their best Arnold Schwarzenegger voice and runs a set distance (at least 30 yards), where they do 10 Spiderman merkins followed by 10 jump squats, then goes to relieve the other Pax, doing clown ladders for the six. Rinse and repeat for 3 rounds total (Terminator 1, 2, and 3).

20 SSH IC
20 HIGH KNEES IC

Olympics
In 1984, there was both winter and summer Olympics. The summer games were held in LA, and because of the Cold War, many Eastern Bloc countries boycotted the games. Thus, the US got 3x more gold medals than the next highest nation, 3x more silver, and 2x more bronze (because they were busy winning all the golds). 4 “rings”
4 rounds of 5 Carolina Dry Docks, 5 situps. Took a break at halfway point for 7-count IC monkey humpers.
